Faced with the sudden conflict between Iran and Israel at this level of war risk, it is often accompanied by severe fluctuations in financial markets. Cryptocurrencies have indeed not been spared from this round of shocks The key to stabilizing assets in this situation is to understand the market's reaction logic and then respond step by step. This conflict has exposed the dual nature of cryptocurrency: ·In the short term, it is a 'risk ATM': when a black swan event occurs, the first reaction of institutions and large investors is to sell high volatility assets in exchange for cash hedging, leading to a sudden drop in prices. ·The mid-term logic is complex: although there is a short-term sharp decline, war may also bring some structural changes, such as: ·Divergent demand for hedging: Some countries or individuals may turn to cryptocurrency for asset transfer due to concerns about sovereign asset freezing. ·Supply side shock: Iran is a mining hub, and the closure of mines and rising energy prices caused by the war may affect Bitcoin's computing power and production costs. The Four Core Steps to Stabilize Assets Based on the current situation, it is recommended that you take four steps, with the core being "risk avoidance first, wait and see, and then layout". 1. Immediate execution: deleveraging, cash preservation ·Completely stay away from high leverage contracts: this is the most urgent. Under geopolitical conflicts, price fluctuations are extremely large and difficult to predict, and high leverage can easily lead to liquidation in an instant, causing the principal to return to zero. ·Reduce holdings appropriately and increase the proportion of stablecoins: Exchange some positions for USDT or USDC, which can avoid volatility risks and provide ammunition when the market reaches extreme lows. 2. Review Position: Concentrate on Core Assets ·Focusing on Bitcoin and Ethereum: In market turbulence, funds tend to concentrate on the assets with the strongest consensus and the best liquidity. History has shown that the resilience of Bitcoin far exceeds that of small and medium-sized market cap currencies. Many altcoins may find it difficult to rebound after a sharp drop, and liquidity may dry up. ·Consider hedging configuration: You can pay attention to gold. In this conflict, gold performed strongly as a traditional safe haven asset. Allocating a portion of gold in your total assets can effectively hedge against geopolitical risks. 3. Batch Decision making: Abandon the rapid decline of bottom fishing and embrace batch layout ·Don't try to "buy the bottom" and experience a sharp drop: When panic spreads, prices may fall layer by layer, and the so-called "bottom" is difficult to form at once. ·Adopting a 'buy in batches' strategy: If you are optimistic about the long term, you can divide your funds into 3-4 parts and buy Bitcoin or Ethereum in batches when the market sentiment is extremely panicked or there are clear signs of easing, which can effectively reduce the average cost. 4. Dynamic observation: Focus on three key signals The situation is dynamic, and your strategy also needs to be adjusted based on the following signals: ·Intensity of War: Whether the conflict subsides quickly or becomes prolonged or even expanded will directly affect market sentiment. ·Macro policy: Pay attention to the statements of the Federal Reserve. The rise in oil prices caused by war may exacerbate inflation, affect expectations of interest rate cuts, and thereby suppress risky assets. ·Regulatory Trends: Whether the United States will take the opportunity to strengthen its scrutiny of cryptocurrencies is also a potential risk point. In such extreme market conditions, protecting capital is far more important than pursuing high returns. The market never lacks opportunities, what is lacking is that you are still present when opportunities arise. I suggest you first stabilize your position and wait for the "fog of war" to gradually dissipate before making more significant decisions. I hope these analyses are helpful to you. If the situation changes in the future, or if you see new signals, we can discuss it together again.
