Marrakech – But as it turns out, the real prophet of our times might just be… Bitcoin.
Yes, that pixelated, digital, borderless coin that once lived in the shadows of internet forums is now serving geopolitical realness faster than your morning newsfeed.
And no, it doesn’t have a crystal ball. It has a blockchain.
Unlike your emotionally unavailable ex, Bitcoin does respond to world events.
In fact, it often responds before the headlines hit.
Why? Because Bitcoin is driven by something more primal than press releases — it’s driven by collective fear and excitement.
Think of it as the internet’s emotional pulse. When things go south — wars break out, banks wobble, inflation whispers — investors rush to Bitcoin like it’s a safe haven spa retreat. Prices jump.
When stability returns? Prices cool down like tea you forgot on the balcony.
Bitcoin doesn’t sleep. It doesn’t care about Wall Street’s business hours or Europe’s lunch breaks.
It’s traded 24/7 across every continent. Which means it reacts in real time — to elections, to economic sanctions, to coups, to celebrity tweets (thanks Elon).
It’s like the world’s most dramatic group chat, except every message costs thousands of dollars and lives on a permanent ledger.
Example? When Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022, Bitcoin dipped — then spiked.
Why? People feared war (sell!), then saw it as a hedge against collapsing currencies (buy!).
There’s actually a term for this: “macro sensitivity.”
Bitcoin reacts to big-picture vibes. It’s like a finance major who moonlights as a therapist.
When the global mood shifts, crypto notices. Some analysts now study Bitcoin price patterns as early signals — way before official data is released.
In other words, Bitcoin isn’t just a currency. It’s a drama queen with important economic data.
So yes, Bitcoin is volatile. But it’s also intuitive. It mirrors uncertainty. It moves with the masses.
And if you learn how to read its highs and lows, you might just get a glimpse of what’s coming next — not just in finance, but in the world.
Forget tarot cards. Watch the charts. Because sometimes, the future doesn’t come knocking. It trades at $63,000 and counting.
