Following Israel's surprise strike on Iran, crypto markets plunged sharply. Bitcoin dropped over 6% below $63,600, Ethereum fell more than 8%, with over $100 million in liquidations within 15 minutes. Escalating geopolitical tensions triggered risk-off sentiment, driving capital away from risk assets. Historical patterns suggest Middle East conflicts typically have triple effects: First, commodity prices like oil rise, fueling inflation expectations and pressuring liquidity-sensitive assets. Second, the U.S. dollar strengthens temporarily, adding pressure on crypto markets. Third, if conflict persists, crypto's "digital gold" safe-haven properties may emerge in the medium term, attracting capital inflows. The key lies in whether tensions escalate further. If contained, markets may recover quickly; if prolonged, crypto could enter a high-volatility phase with altcoins under greater pressure. Watch whether Bitcoin holds the critical $62,000 support level.
