🚨 Strait of Hormuz — Day 3. Still Shut.
For the third straight day, one of the world's most critical oil chokepoints is nearly dead silent.
3 vessels transited in recent hours — 2 of them empty
IRGC redeclared the Strait closed Saturday — 13 ships turned back
1 container ship struck by gunfire, 2 others fired upon
Zero tanker transits recorded Sunday
Shipping firm Ambrey telling all vessels: abort and return to origin
Why crypto traders should care:
No Hormuz traffic = oil shock = inflation fears spike = Fed keeps rates high = risk-off across all markets. $BTC and $ETH dropped when Iran announced the closure.
Crypto doesn't hide when macro breaks down, it bleeds with everything else.
The strait carries ~20% of global oil and any disruption forces aggressive repricing across every asset class.
