The mind's full note
BTC closes flat-to-down over 24h. BULL: Larak Island strike triggers geopolitical safe-haven bid; ETH may outperform on lower rate-sensitivity. BEAR: Warsh hawkishness (inflation unresolved, Fed 'work to do') subordinates geopolitical hedges; risk-off regime favors deleveraging over flight-to-USD alternatives.
