Last night, Israel launched a counterattack against Iran in response to its drone and missile attack on Israel a few days earlier. Although it appeared that the conflict was easing, tensions in the Middle East are now escalating. The region could be on the brink of all-out war.
That means it’s time to buy gold, right?
Not so fast.
These recent geopolitical developments could actually present an opportunity big reason to buy cryptos.
This is because cryptos tend to surge during times of geopolitical conflict.
Think back to the COVID-19 outbreak in 2020, when the global economy shut down for months. The following year, in 2021, Bitcoin (BTC USD) burst by 40%; and around 70 other cryptos rose by more than 1,000%!
It’s been a blockbuster year for the crypto markets.
What about the political unrest surrounding the 2016 US presidential election? This was a very tense time for Americans, who felt uncomfortably and irreconcilably divided. Financial markets were volatile. But the following year, BTC rose almost 1,000% – another blockbuster year for crypto markets.
And in 2012, just like today, tensions in the Middle East increased. The US consulate in Libya and a nearby CIA office were attacked. Israel murdered the Hamas military. A veteran American war photographer was killed in Syria. However, despite these escalations, Bitcoin rose by 4,500% in the following year.
You understand what’s important.
Despite their bad reputation as a “risky asset,” cryptocurrencies tend to soar in times of geopolitical chaos.
And that just so happens to be exactly where we are right now.
Current Geopolitical Tensions: Optimistic for Cryptos?
Tensions between Israel and Hamas are rising, similar to 2012.
And here in America, political tensions are also increasing – similar to 2016. Fears of a recession are also rampant, just like in 2020.
Today we are facing a mix of the exact same situations that have led to massive crypto rallies over the last decade.
We expect a similar result here…
Especially because Bitcoin’s fourth halving is finally around the corner.
In fact, Bitcoin experiences a “halving event” every four years, where the rate of production of new BTC is halved.
Cryptos tend to rise around these halving events. And the profits are particularly large after the halving.
In the year before the first halving, Bitcoin rose almost 400%. But the following year it rose by more than 8,000%.
In the year before the second halving, Bitcoin rose about 140%. The following year the value rose by almost 300%.
And in the year before the third halving, Bitcoin rose 17%. But the following year it rose by more than 550%.
Bitcoin always recovers before a halving event. But what’s more important: it keeps increasing afterwards.
And right now we are facing the fourth halving. According to some estimates, it could even happen today.
Once this halving occurs, it will mark the start of a huge new bull market in cryptos. And we’ll likely see dozens and dozens of cryptos rise more than 1,000% in the coming months.
The last word
So which cryptos should you buy to have a chance of winning big in 2024?
Well, we’ve developed a powerful quantitative system to help you do just that.
To put it as succinctly as possible, it uses the core strategy of quantitative phase analysis High Velocity Stocks and modifies it slightly to find cryptocurrencies poised for a breakout – tokens that could rise hundreds of percent within days, weeks and months.
This quant trading system has already proven to be extremely successful when it comes to stock selection…
And now it’s primed to ride the gains in the crypto market – just in time to reap the rewards of Bitcoin’s fourth halving.
That’s why I’ll be introducing this tool next Tuesday, April 23rd at 10 a.m. Eastern Time. And investors can use it to potentially make big profits on cryptos as they enter the most exciting phase of this boom cycle.
