Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) has surged 14% since the Iran war began on February 28, outperforming the MSCI World Index and gold, which are down 4% and 5%, respectively.

Still, analysts warn the rally may fizzle by April and worsen by August.

The Outperformance Numbers

This marks a sharp contrast to the spectacular crash in October 2025, which saw Bitcoin’s value halve from its high above $126,000.

Crude oil surged more than 40%, bullion dropped roughly 5% for the month, and the MSCI World Index fell 4%.

Bitcoin has been an oasis of calm relative to the volatility in equities, gold, and oil.
