The linkage here is the notable part: bitcoin trading as a geopolitical risk barometer rather than on crypto-specific news. That reinforces the asset's growing sensitivity to macro risk premia, which matters for allocators who treat it as a diversifier. The open question is whether this correlation holds if the conflict's trajectory shifts again, or if it proves a one-day macro reaction.
