Crypto remains resilient in face of renewed Middle East tensions

Bitcoin and the broader crypto market are showing surprising resilience amid escalating Middle East tensions, with BTC climbing 1.2% to $63,000 and Nasdaq futures surging 2.6% despite U.S. airstrikes on Iran. This resilience underscores crypto's growing role as a stable asset in times of geopolitical uncertainty. The 9% increase since June suggests investors are increasingly viewing cryptocurrencies as a hedge against traditional market volatility, reflecting a shift in how people perceive digital assets in global crises.
