Bitcoin Under MAJOR Pressure As Trump Tensions Peak! What Happens Next?

#bitcoin #oilcrisis #finance Bitcoin keeps running into a wall of selling above $70K — roughly $20M/hour in profit-taking — and now that wall has geopolitical weight behind it after the Islamabad peace talks collapsed, Iran's Strait of Hormuz stays effectively closed, and Trump ordered a naval blockade of Iranian ports starting this morning. That's pushing oil toward $100/barrel and forcing tanker traffic into a full reroute away from the Gulf, which benefits US energy exports but hammers Japan, South Korea, and India hardest. Meanwhile the dollar's long-term slide continues — now just 46% of global FX and gold reserves, a 26-year low — even as M2 keeps expanding at 4.8% YoY, and central bank gold holdings have officially eclipsed US Treasury holdings for the first time since '96. And on the crypto side, the WLFI vs. Justin Sun feud is turning into a full legal brawl over a $75M loan dispute, backdoor token blacklisting, and accusations flying both ways — exactly the kind of circus that undermines crypto's push for institutional credibility. 🎙 Guests Dave Weisberger – Former CEO of CoinRoutes https://x.com/daveweisberger1 James Lavish – CIO & Macro Strategist https://x.com/jameslavish Mike McGlone – Senior Commodity Strategist at Bloomberg https://x.com/mikemcglone11 Timestamps 00:00 Bitcoin under pressure amid Trump tensions 01:10 Ana Wong’s inflation and CPI forecast insights 03:08 Crude oil price highs and U.S. shale production costs 07:39 Market reactions to geopolitical risk and asset correlations 09:11 Clarifying Bitcoin’s supply dynamics vs. other cryptos 11:03 JP Morgan’s acceptance of Bitcoin as collateral 15:45 Iran demands Bitcoin for Strait of Hormuz toll payments 16:23 Decline of U.S. dollar’s global reserve status 19:11 Sovereign nations adopting Bitcoin as a bearer asset 23:13 Impact of energy prices on consumer demand and market rotations 27:33 Differing views on Bitcoin and crypto supply issues 39:16 Discussion on U.S. money supply and ongoing monetary printing 49:19 Overview of World Liberty Financial controversy 51:37 Use of World Liberty Financial tokens as collateral on lending platform 01:00:02 Crypto market confusion caused by Trump-associated projects 01:03:28 Comparison of crypto tokens to penny stocks and market speculation 01:04:12 Future of blockchain technology vs. crypto token investing 🚀 Connect & Learn Join The Wolf Pack Community Channel (Free Telegram) – Daily crypto market updates + direct chat with Scott: https://t.me/+34ihhgJnZYRlOWU8 Join The Wolf Pack News Channel (Free Telegram) - Daily crypto news & technical analysis with Scott: https://t.me/+Jzsrl5Xp9NJmMDk0 Free Wolf Den Newsletter – Crypto news & market analysis every weekday: https://thewolfden.substack.com/ 📊 Featured Trading Tools OKX – Trade like a pro with 1:1 backed assets and industry-leading speed.
