Middle East tensions pushing crude oil prices higher again. Worth paying attention to—geopolitical shocks tend to ripple across asset classes. When traditional commodities spike, you often see shifts in macro sentiment that affect where capital flows, including into crypto. Oil's directional moves can signal broader market anxiety or stability, which indirectly influences risk appetite for digital assets. Traders monitoring the bigger picture usually keep tabs on these conventional market signals.

Oil prices are soaring again. The situation in the Middle East is indeed an invisible macro killer.

Oil prices are acting up again, but to be honest, I'm more concerned about whether this wave can push BTC down so I can buy the dip.

According to on-chain data, the correlation coefficient between oil price fluctuations and the risk appetite of crypto assets is approximately between 0.67 and 0.73, which warrants close attention.

Oil prices have risen again, and this time it's due to the Middle East situation... Looks like the rise and fall of the mainland isn't over yet. What do on-chain data say? We need to see how the whales are moving. When the traditional markets sneeze, our crypto catches a cold. I’ve always said we should go with the flow. Actually, this is a sign of the bottoming phase, everyone in the know understands. Geopolitical tactics to harvest profits—this bearish signal can't be hidden anymore.

Here we go again, the Middle East situation is stirring up trouble, and oil prices are soaring. But on the other hand, this thing really can indicate trends in the crypto world; the transmission chain is very solid.

Oil prices have risen again, but don't follow the trend to rush in. When there's a rebound, it's time to reduce positions. There are too many lessons from history.
