๐Ÿšจ The oil shock nobody is talking about and it's already hitting your wallet.

The Strait of Hormuz just went from moving 20 million barrels/day to nearly ZERO.

Goldman Sachs estimates an 11.4M barrel/day shortfall.

Oil is already at $97. GS warns it could hit $200.

This isn't just an energy story.

Oil feeds plastics, food, shipping, medicine.

When fuel costs 2x, everything else follows.

That's stagflation - inflation + slow growth at the same time.

Central banks can't fix it. Raising rates kills jobs. Cutting rates fuels inflation.

The 1973 OPEC crisis removed 4M barrels/day and wrecked the economy for years.

This one? 5x larger. Hitting a world with record debt and no fiscal buffer.

Asia feels it first (Japan, Korea, Vietnam, India).

Europe follows in mid-April.

US comes last - but it still comes.

What does this mean for crypto?

Historically, stagflation = hard assets outperform.

BTC, commodities, and real yield-bearing assets tend to hold better than equities.

Watch unemployment + oil price together. When both move up, that's your real signal.
