Защо цените на Bitcoin, Ethereum и XRP не падат днес?

[kim]

Cryptocurrencies defied a sweeping global market selloff on Monday as a catastrophic oil supply shock and escalating U.S.-Iran tensions sent equities tumbling, with Bitcoin, Ethereum and XRP each posting modest gains even as Wall Street futures pointed to one of the worst openings in recent memory.

Crypto Holds as Equities Crater

Bitcoin traded at $66,124.97, up 1.65% over 24 hours. Ethereum added 1.08% to change hands at $1,944.62, while XRP outperformed both, climbing 1.47% over seven days to $1.34. The crypto market capitalization stood at $2.28 trillion, a striking contrast to equity futures showing the Nasdaq off 1.56%, the S&P 500 down 1.65%, the Dow shedding 2%, and the Russell 2000 hemorrhaging 3.8%.

The Oil Shock Behind the Chaos

Crude oil surged 21% at the open, with West Texas Intermediate hitting $110.99 per barrel for the first time since June 2022, now up 65% since the outbreak of the U.S.-Iran war. The trigger was the effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz, through which roughly one-fifth of the world’s daily oil supply normally flows.

With pipeline bypass capacity capped at 6.8 million barrels per day against a trapped flow of 19.8 million, analysts estimate a structural daily deficit of 12.7 million barrels. In nine days, an estimated 200 million barrels have failed to reach global markets. Iraq, Iran and Kuwait have collectively halted millions of barrels in daily production. Saudi Arabia’s Ras Tanura refinery is offline. Qatar has suspended approximately 20% of global LNG supply.

A Leadership Vacuum in Tehran

Compounding the instability, Iran’s Assembly of Experts formally declared Mojtaba Khamenei as Supreme Leader on Monday, triggering street protests in Tehran and a sharp response from Washington, where President Trump had previously called a dynastic succession “unacceptable.”

Why Digital Assets Are Diverging

Against that backdrop, crypto’s divergence from equities has drawn attention. Bitcoin’s institutional positioning as a store of value is attracting defensive flows that traditionally move into gold. With oil driving inflation expectations higher, assets outside the traditional financial system are drawing fresh interest.

The Crypto Fear & Greed Index at 17 signals extreme fear, a reading historically associated with accumulation rather than further selling. Crucially, digital assets carry no exposure to the physical infrastructure at the center of this crisis.

There are no refineries to go offline, no tankers to reroute. In a shock defined entirely by the vulnerability of physical supply chains, that detachment is proving, for now, to be an advantage.
