📉 MARKET LIQUIDATIONS & SHOCKS

🧨 KEY TAKEAWAYS

🔻 Major coins acted like risk assets:

Instead of acting as “crypto safe havens,” Bitcoin, Ethereum, and top alts fell with equities and oil volatility spikes — driven by fear, margin calls, and liquidity crunches.

💼 Risk‑off sentiment dominated:

Investors fled into traditional assets (e.g., USD, bonds) when conflict risk spiked, pressuring crypto prices. �

Business Standard

📌 Temporary rebounds possible:

During periods of easing geopolitical fears or ceasefire news, crypto markets historically bounced back sharply with big gains across BTC and major altcoins — though these trends reversed quickly when tensions re‑escalated. �
