Bitcoin on the go: record high despite the geopolitical unrest!
In the world of cryptocurrencies, things seem to be going over. On Monday, the Bitcoin course noted with an impressive $ 108,651 after it had fallen to just under $ 103,000 on Friday. Such a roller coaster ride is often the result of geopolitical tensions that can currently be observed between Israel and Iran. Specifically, a military impact of Israel against several military goals in Iran on June 13, 2025 led to a massive sale to the financial markets, which also affected the Bitcoin course with a decline by around 3.5 percent to $ 104,250. [Boerse.de] (https://www.boerse.de/nachrichten/wdh-bitcoin-Gegt- zu-im-im-blick/37525079) reports that the reaction of the markets is not particularly surprising, since such military conflicts between the two countries often led to similar declines. However, it is also known that the markets are often stabilized again quickly.
Interestingly, the Israeli army reported that around 100 drones were started towards Israel, which further fueled the tensions in the region. Tehran confirmed the death of high -ranking military and nuclear scientists, and Iran's leader Ali Chamenei announced a retaliation. However, these developments not only have an impact on the cryptocurrency markets, but also on traditional financial investments. For example, the S&P 500 and Nasdaq fell by almost 2 percent, while gold and oil became more expensive. The gold course increased by almost 2 percent and oil from the Brent brand by almost 10 percent.healthy skepticism, but also interest in purchase
Although the geopolitical uncertainties push the markets, there are also bright spots. Timo Emden from Emden Research emphasizes that there is a group of bargain hunters who are active despite the tense situation. Traders seem optimistic that an escalation of the conflict is not imminent. The street of Hormus, a central shipping route for oil transports, also remains open, and the USA has so far been removed from the conflict.
The overall market capitalization of the cryptom market fell by 4 percent to $ 3.25 trillion, which underlines the volatility of the situation. While Bitcoin arouses a certain interest among investors, especially for long positions, where liquidations of $ 1.14 billion took place, Ethereum is also in the line of fire with a decrease of almost 9 percent.
A look at the geopolitical risks
geopolitical risks should therefore not be underestimated, especially in an environment in which Bitcoin is viewed as a safe alternative. An analysis shows that Bitcoin trading increases, especially in developing countries, during such turbulent times, while a speculative view often dominates in developed countries. In these regions, geopolitical risks are less perceived, which underlines the different perspectives on Bitcoin.

In this volatile period, it is to be hoped that the Bitcoin course will soon head for its record high of almost $ 112,000 in May. The market event remains exciting and it will be interesting to observe how the political tensions in the region will affect the financial markets.
