U.S. military forces conducted a strike against Iran, resulting in the successful "decapitation" of Iran's Supreme Leader Khamenei. Despite initial fears of market downturns, both U.S. stocks and crypto assets surged after the market opened. Bitcoin rose 5% to $68,699, while Ethereum increased by 6.25% to $2,035. The S&P 500, Nasdaq, and Dow also saw gains of 0.23%, 0.14%, and 0.25% respectively.
Crypto-related stocks experienced significant upticks, with Circle (CRCL) climbing 11.35%, Strategy (MSTR) up 5.43%, Bitmine (BMNR) rising 7.72%, and Figure (FIGR) increasing by 12.62%. This market behavior mirrors a previous U.S. military operation involving Venezuelan President Maduro, where a similar strategy led to market gains following the operation.
