Breaking: The U.S. administration just rolled out a 25% tariff on nations conducting trade with Iran. This is a major geopolitical move that's shaking up global trade dynamics.

For crypto markets, this kind of policy shift typically ripples through traditional markets first—currency movements, commodity price swings, risk-off sentiment in equities. When geo-tensions spike and trade policies tighten, we often see capital flow into crypto as a hedge against traditional market uncertainty.

Keep an eye on how this plays out with energy markets (Iran is a major oil player) and emerging market currencies. Broader tariff measures like this historically increase volatility across all asset classes. The domino effect could hit emerging market exposure hard, which indirectly affects crypto sentiment through correlation with risk appetite.

This is the kind of macro news that doesn't move crypto price instantly, but it sets the tone for where capital might rotate over the next few weeks. Worth monitoring alongside traditional market reactions.
