On February 28th, at 2:00 PM, Israel and the United States launched an attack on Iran, which then retaliated, leading to a full-scale US-Iran conflict. Trump directly stated that he intends to "take over the Iranian government," and the US military said the conflict could last for several weeks. Iran launched missiles at all Gulf countries except Oman, targeting US military bases.



Amid intense military clashes, Bitcoin initially dropped at 2:00 PM, falling 3.57% in one hour before stabilizing and trading sideways. It is currently at $63,935. Some analysts pointed out that Bitcoin experienced an intraday sell-off pressure of approximately $1.8 billion within that hour. Due to the weekend timing of the incident, cryptocurrencies became the preferred asset for risk-off selling.

Additionally, although mainstream gold trading markets are closed, gold tokens surged nearly 6% after the event. For example, PAXG is now trading at $5,492.98, XAUT at $5,433.49, and XAU contracts on Binance are at $5,364.38. #美国以色列突袭伊朗BTC短线跳水
