Global geopolitical tensions and domestic policy shifts are reshaping investor behavior as we head into 2026. The pattern is becoming clearer: when uncertainty strikes, capital flows toward safer assets. This isn't just speculation—it's a fundamental shift in how portfolios are being positioned. Whether it's traditional havens or emerging alternatives in the crypto space, the underlying logic remains the same: protection in uncertain times. Expect this trend to intensify as risk factors continue to mount on the international stage.

To be honest, with the current global situation, it’s nothing new for funds to flow into safe assets. In the crypto world over the past two years, the logic has been—when everything is chaotic, just hold onto BTC or stablecoins and sleep peacefully.

Talking about risk preference shifts again? Basically, everyone is scared and is banding together to seek safe assets.

This wave really has no novelty, risk off is just like this... But the crypto side is indeed bleeding, it's a bit interesting.

I've seen through this routine long ago; capital is just that pragmatic. --- No, why is it always this "hedging" story again? Feels like the same story is being repeated every time. --- Ha, traditional hedging is the same as in the crypto world? Then choose coins, at least there's room for imagination. --- Are we still discussing this in 2026? I've already gone all in, okay? --- What they call protection is good, but what it really means is dodging debt... Anyway, I can't outrun this wave. --- Damn, I just want to know when this wave will truly arrive, or if it's just another wolf coming. --- Really daring to say that, the international stage is about to stir again. I've seen this script ten times. --- So in the end, just buy Bitcoin, right? That must be the final answer. --- No matter what hedging logic there is, the ones who always make money are those who got on board early.

Well... basically, everyone is afraid, so they just go and stock up on stablecoins.
