European tensions are escalating. Italy has issued an urgent advisory warning its nationals to evacuate from Iran amid deteriorating security conditions. The move reflects growing geopolitical unease in the Middle East region. For crypto investors and traders, such geopolitical flashpoints typically trigger risk-off sentiment, potentially impacting volatility in Bitcoin, Ethereum, and broader digital assets as capital seeks safer havens. This kind of regional instability has historically correlated with flight-to-quality movements in traditional markets, often rippling into crypto markets as institutional investors recalibrate their risk exposure.

Whenever there's a geopolitical dispute, BTC has to be the spectator. I'm too familiar with this routine.

Another risk-averse market again. This time, it depends on how institutions act.

A geopolitical shock causes institutions to start fleeing. Where will this wave of safe-haven funds flow? Is Bitcoin about to be regarded as a safe haven again?

Geopolitics again? Well, this time the situation in Iran might once again cause a big hit to our positions.

Hmm, here comes the geopolitical crypto manipulation again... Every time there's news from the Middle East, the coin prices tremble. Truly.

The medical record shows that the clinical manifestation of this wave of risk aversion is still the old routine, and the symptoms of capital outflows will still transmit to the crypto circle. The problem is that most people only look at the risk aversion logic and ignore the true state of liquidity indicators—can BTC really absorb this wave of institutional funds now? It needs to be checked regularly.

Here we go again. Whenever news like this comes out, Bitcoin has to shake. I'm tired of the "safe-haven sentiment" explanation.
