ビットコインは、2月から20%下落しており、戦争の影響を受けて仮想通貨市場が圧迫されている
-
The largest cryptocurrency fell as much as 3.3% on Sunday to around $68,150, marking its lowest level since early March, while Ether slid nearly 5% to about $2,050. The weakness extended across the complex, with Solana, XRP and Cardano also moving lower, suggesting a broader pullback rather than an isolated move. Since the US and Israel began attacks on Iran at the end of February, Bitcoin (BTC-USD) has lost roughly 20%, a decline that could be seen as testing its perceived role as a crisis hedge.
Market participants point to a mix of drivers behind the move, not just geopolitics. Bitcoin appears to be trading more in line with other risk assets, which have also come under pressure, rather than diverging from them. Higher energy prices could be another factor, potentially increasing the cost of mining and weighing on sentiment. At the same time, expectations that legislative developments in Washington might support crypto demand may be fading, as attention shifts toward the war, possibly dampening the kind of retail-driven momentum that had been anticipated.
The 24/7 nature of crypto markets is also offering a real-time signal of broader positioning. On Sunday, perpetual futures on Hyperliquid showed oil-linked contracts rising more than 2% to about $98 a barrel, while contracts tied to the Nasdaq 100

and S&P 500 (SPY) were lower. The geopolitical backdrop remains fluid, with President Donald Trump warning of potential strikes on Iran's power infrastructure if the Strait of Hormuz is not reopened, and Iran signaling it could target US and Israeli assets in response. As tensions evolve, crypto's correlation with risk assets could remain a key theme for investors watching the next move.
