Bitcoin’s latest tumble to $94,000 has rattled markets just as optimism grows over a possible US-China trade breakthrough.
While investors offload $1 billion in BTC to exchanges—signaling rising fear of a sell-off —nations like Iran are moving in the opposite direction, embracing crypto as a financial lifeline under renewed sanctions. The contrast underscores a widening divide: retail panic meets strategic adoption. As Western investors retreat from volatility, sanctioned economies are betting on blockchain to bypass the global financial gatekeepers.
The question now is whether Bitcoin’s weakness reflects fading faith—or a deeper shift in how power and money flow in a digitized world.
