Everyone is calling this a $BTC breakout. The data says it's geopolitical relief
$BTC jumped from $66K to above $69K in hours after Trump signaled a temporary ceasefire with Iran. ETH followed. Alts like XRP and SOL pushed even harder. Billions rotated back into risk assets almost instantly.
But here is what did not change: nothing is resolved. The Strait of Hormuz is still a risk. Negotiations are uncertain. The ceasefire is temporary by its own definition.
The last time markets rallied this hard on a geopolitical pause, the next headline reversed it within days.
Right now the market is trading sentiment, not fundamentals. These are two very different things.
At what price would you actually start trusting this rally, or do you think we flush back to $66K before any real move?
