According to The Kobeissi Letter, in the past 72 hours, the US conducted airstrikes on Iranian nuclear sites, Russia declared readiness to help supply Iran with nuclear weapons, and Iran's parliament voted to close the Strait of Hormuz. Despite these major geopolitical events, US stock market futures opened only 0.5% lower. For crypto traders, this muted response in traditional markets suggests continued risk appetite, with Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) likely to see increased safe-haven flows if tensions escalate further, as seen in previous global crises (source: The Kobeissi Letter, June 22, 2025).

According to CrypNuevo, Bitcoin (BTC) is showing early signs of weakness ahead of a likely stock market sell-off following recent US intervention in Iran. As geopolitical tensions escalate and concerns grow over a possible Iranian blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, risk assets such as cryptocurrencies may see increased downward pressure. Traders should monitor global conflict developments and US stock market reactions closely, as further instability could drive BTC and broader crypto prices lower (source: CrypNuevo on Twitter, June 22, 2025).
