👉 Why?

Investors initially move money into cash or safe assets due to fear.

💰 2. Why Bitcoin rises during ongoing conflict

After the first shock, Bitcoin often goes up because:

🔹 (a) Economic instability

War → oil prices rise → inflation increases

Governments may print more money

➡️ This makes Bitcoin attractive as an alternative asset

🔹 (b) Capital flight (very important)

In countries like Iran, people use Bitcoin to move money safely

Crypto outflows from Iran jumped 700% during attacks �

➡️ Bitcoin acts like a “financial escape tool”

🔹 (c) “Digital gold” narrative

Some investors treat Bitcoin like gold during crises

In 2026 conflict, Bitcoin even rose ~10% during war period �
