Middle East suddenly escalates! BTC, gold, and crude oil all surge simultaneously, who will crash first tonight?
Last night’s market, summed up in one sentence:
“Everyone is running around chaotically.”
After the US confirmed intercepting an Iranian attack, the risk in the Strait of Hormuz instantly intensified.
Oil prices spike first;
Gold rises;
BTC plunges;
US stocks pull back.
All the classic safe-haven logic is replayed.
But now, the most dangerous thing isn’t the war itself, but the market’s renewed concern about “secondary inflation.”
Because as long as oil prices keep rising, it becomes even harder for the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates.
And the biggest hope for risk assets in the past was rate cuts.
So BTC faces immense pressure instantly.
Many people ask: Can we still buy the dip now?
The answer is: Don’t rush to be a hero.
Because tonight’s non-farm payroll data could completely change the market direction.
If the data is too strong, the Fed will continue high interest rates, and BTC might face further pressure.
If the data weakens, the market will reprice rate cuts.
Short-term rebound potential will open up significantly.
But what’s truly important is:
The market has now entered a stage where “news is more important than logic.”
A single Middle East news story
Could be more stimulating than ten financial reports.
In the past, crypto traders watched candlestick charts;
Now they also need to watch military channels.
It’s recommended that traders prepare two screens in the future:
Left side: BTC;
Right side: Live coverage of the Strait of Hormuz. #Gate广场五月交易分享
