Stocks ripped on the Iran peace deal news. $BTC? Barely moved.

This is the moment that separates narratives from reality. Everyone loves to say crypto is "digital gold" or a "risk-off hedge" - until traditional markets actually rally and Bitcoin just sits there.

The truth: Bitcoin still trades like a tech stock in most scenarios. When risk appetite comes back to equities, capital doesn't automatically flow into crypto. It flows where the momentum is.

Maybe Bitcoin's real role isn't reacting to every geopolitical headline. Maybe it's playing a longer game that doesn't care about 24-hour news cycles. But if you're trading it like it should pump on peace deals, you're going to be confused often.
