Unexpectedly, Bitcoin $btc has risen above 71,000+, and Ethereum $eth has surpassed 2000+. The market has been fluctuating, lingering at this level for a long time. Why did Bitcoin rise? Here are some possible reasons: 1. The reason might be Iran's geopolitical issues, with the local currency severely devalued. By early December 2025: approximately $1 ≈ 420,000 Rials, but since the conflict, it has dropped to 1.3–1.75 million, a three to fourfold decline, so the wealthy are buying Bitcoin to hedge against inflation; 2. Also, yesterday Trump suddenly discussed the Genius Act, causing other markets to crash while the crypto market held steady. The recent price increase might be driven by insider institutions, after all, Trump really can draw K-lines; Second, Tonight, I watched the LOL live stream BLG - JDG. Since I was playing the prediction market and participated a bit, I saw that BLG’s win rate was very high, over 75%. However, after watching the full BO5, I realized that this win rate isn’t really reliable because BLG lost the first game, then fell behind 1:2 in the series, and in the decisive fifth game, BLG’s win probability dropped below 50%. Although BLG eventually won, the process was extremely tense. Sports betting odds are really full of surprises. If you're not hedging, you're just gambling.
