Bitcoin’s $300K gold pattern now depends on whether Iran’s oil shock rewrites the Fed path
A gold-style breakout pattern has put a $300,000 Bitcoin target back in focus, but the Iran-driven oil shock may decide whether BTC trades like digital gold or another risk asset.

Bitcoin’s momentum looks less about narrative momentum and more about macro stress and liquidity plumbing. A gold-style breakout has resurfaced a $300,000 target, but an Iran-driven oil shock and its impact on Fed policy may decide whether BTC behaves like digital gold or slides back into risk-asset territory.
