Bitcoin Holds Steady Amid Failed Trump-Putin Peace Talks—Proving Crypto Couldn’t Care Less About Geopolitics

While traditional markets flinch at geopolitical turbulence, Bitcoin stands unfazed—again.

No Peace, No Problem

The much-hyped Trump-Putin summit collapsed in spectacular fashion today, sending shockwaves through forex and commodities. Meanwhile, BTC barely blinked, trading sideways like a bored cat watching world leaders fail at diplomacy.

Decoupling Narrative Gains Steam

Another day, another proof point that crypto marches to its own drum. Gold bugs and oil traders might obsess over geopolitical risk, but Bitcoin's price action screams 'tell me when you’ve actually moved the needle.'

Wall Street’s Loss Is Crypto’s Nonchalance

While hedge funds scramble to price in new risk premiums (and justify their fees), Bitcoin’s 24-hour volatility remains lower than the S&P 500’s—a delicious irony for an asset class still called 'risky' by suits who can’t hedge inflation.
