Bullish

That one reduce the “energy and supply shock” story wey dey make people go risk-off, and oil price don fall sharply—wey normally good for overall risk sentiment.
For short term, BTC sharp move pass $76K show say traders dey quick reprice geopolitical risk. But the effect fit depend: the ceasefire go expire April 22, so the upside support fit vanish quick if escalation headlines return. For long term, if de-escalation hold before and after the deadline, e fit keep people in risk-on mode; if no, volatility fit rise and gains fit retrace. Overall, the immediate reaction favour bullish momentum for Bitcoin.
