Volatility Ramp
The author warns that escalating geopolitical tensions, notably the war in Iran, are pushing oil prices higher and reigniting inflation fears. This feedback loop is driving interest‑rate volatility, with the U.S. 2‑year Treasury yield jumping 30 basis points in two weeks and markets pricing in a longer‑lasting Fed tightening cycle. As a result, investors are fleeing risk‑on assets for safe‑haven dollars, leaving crypto in a bearish environment where Bitcoin is likely confined to a $60k‑$75k range. A bullish breakout now hinges on BTC breaching $75,000 and ETH exceeding $2,400.
