A geopolitical shock refers to a sudden and significant event in international relations or political stability that creates widespread uncertainty and impacts global markets. These events can include armed conflicts, major policy shifts by influential nations, or severe diplomatic crises. Such shocks often cause volatility in traditional financial markets and can also influence the digital asset sector. They introduce unexpected risks and alter investor behavior across asset classes.
Context
Geopolitical shocks are frequently cited in analyses of market movements, including those within the cryptocurrency space, as investors often seek safe-haven assets or react to perceived systemic risks. The extent to which digital assets act as uncorrelated stores of value during these periods remains a subject of ongoing debate and observation.
