Garrett Jin, associated with the "BTC OG Insider Whale," has highlighted the ongoing pressure on risk assets due to the crisis at the Strait of Hormuz. Jin noted that Brent crude oil prices, which rose from $85 to $119.50 per barrel, reflect market concerns over potential supply disruptions. He emphasized that risk assets will remain under pressure until a reliable solution for reopening the strait is found, even if the crisis eases.
Jin pointed out that the crisis impacts markets through various channels, affecting cross-asset correlations and geographic risk distribution. He warned that rebuilding insurance mechanisms could take 3 to 6 weeks, and that downside scenarios, such as diplomatic failures or prolonged closures, lack historical pricing benchmarks. Meanwhile, rising duration premiums for oil, interest rates, and inflation expectations indicate continued market stress.
