The energy market in 2026 may experience interesting divergence: oil faces bearish pressure, while natural gas is poised for a surge. Behind this seemingly contradictory situation are deep changes in global energy transition and geopolitical dynamics. Oil prices are under pressure due to rising electric vehicle penetration and expanding renewable energy, but natural gas, as a transitional energy source, gains new upward momentum amid a rebound in global energy demand. This shift in energy structure will also indirectly impact the global economic cycle and the performance of risk assets— for cryptocurrency market observers, the transformation of the macro energy landscape should not be overlooked.

Oil prices fall, gas prices rise? The core logic is just a reshuffling of the energy structure. Electric vehicles are really nibbling away at the oil market.

Is natural gas about to take off? I can't buy this logic; the adoption rate of EVs isn't as fast as I imagined...

Oil falls, gas rises, I buy into this logic. During the energy transition, this is indeed how it works; changes in the energy structure directly impact the macro environment. The crypto market should have paid attention to this long ago.

Oil prices fall, gas prices rise, and the energy structure has changed. What does this mean for the crypto world? The macro cycle needs to be understood clearly.

Oil falls, gas rises, this is the true portrayal of the energy transition. The popularity of EVs combined with renewable energy makes life difficult for oil. But the opportunity to scoop up natural gas... this needs to be closely watched, as it directly affects the macro cycle.

Oil falls, gas rises, I buy into this logic. The money from energy transition is all flowing into natural gas.

Oil falls, gas rises? I love this logic. Energy divergence is really starting to impact risk assets in the crypto space.
