Three Bullish Logics Driving Bitcoin Higher
First, cooling geopolitical risks release risk appetite. The Strait of Hormuz crisis was the largest market suppression variable over the past three weeks. Higher oil prices mean rising inflation expectations, and rising inflation expectations are extremely unfavorable for liquidity-sensitive assets. As signals of the strait corridor reopening emerge, the market is beginning to reprice.
Second, Bitcoin is playing the role of a non-dollar safe haven asset. In this round of US-Iran conflict, Bitcoin did not fall in sync with the stock market; instead,

On March 15, according to Coinglass data, Bitcoin's return for this week is currently reported at 8.55%, with a historical average return of -1.03%.

During the same period, the S&P 500 index declined by 1.60%, with BTC significantly outperforming US stocks.$BTC

BlackRock's head of digital assets stated frankly in a livestream that among the top 20 global ETF inflows, only BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF has negative returns, while all other ETFs are in a profitable state. Currently, BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF inflows have reached $26 billion, ranking fourth globally. The executive indicated that this phenomenon suggests Bitcoin is currently in a period of intense turnover and long-term accumulation. Additionally, 90% of investors in BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF are in a "buy the dip" mentality, with only 10% of hedge funds utilizing basis trading for short-term, hig

With crude oil prices plummeting this morning and inflation expectations temporarily cooling down, Bitcoin experienced a significant rebound, returning to the $70,000 level.
This once again demonstrates Bitcoin's characteristic as a "liquidity thermometer." Once the "signal" of rising inflation driven by oil prices subsides, market fears of interest rate hikes ease, liquidity expectations recover, and Bitcoin quickly regains its footing.
This rise and fall also reflect the latest stance of the Trump administration on the war situation.

On March 8, last night and this morning, the Iranian Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps issued a statement announcing the launch of "Real Commitment 4" Round 27 military operations.

Additionally, Iran also used Katyusha rockets to attack the U.S. embassy in Baghdad.
Secretary of Iran's Supreme National Security Council, Ali Shamkhani, stated, "Iran will punish Trump for the assassination of Supreme Leader Khamenei and will not let him escape. Iranian of

On March 4th, according to The Block, crypto research and brokerage firm K33 stated that after months of sustained selling pressure, Bitcoin has entered one of the most oversold weekly zones in history. There is no convincing reason to sell Bitcoin at the current price levels.
K33 Research Director Vetle Lunde wrote in the latest report: "If you want to make a mistake, follow the crowd."

On March 1st, crypto analyst Murphy stated, "Using < 10y_RP as the 'historical average turnover cost' for Bitcoin is more effective in assessing market sentiment. When the price approaches < 10y_RP (around $64,500), it often nears the market's psychological limit. During February 23-24 and February 27-28, BTC repeatedly broke below this level and then rebounded, indicating strong resistance from the bulls at this sensitive price point, unlike the rapid declines seen when approaching STH-RP previously.
The biggest current uncertainty in the market still stems from the US-Iran geopolitical confl

On February 27, renowned analyst Willy Woo stated, "This investor-led bearish sell-off seems to be nearing its end, providing some breathing room for prices. It may enter about a month of sideways consolidation, or even rebound to the mid-$70,000 range, but that level is likely to encounter resistance.
The reason is that the broader market environment remains clearly bearish, with spot and futures liquidity both deteriorating. I have never seen Bitcoin sustain a rally when both spot and futures liquidity are weakening simultaneously. If I were to make a relatively rational judgment, I believe
