Reports of Possible Military Coup in Russia Could Impact Global Markets and Crypto

June 24 (Cointime) - Reports suggest that there may be a military coup in Russia, which could have significant geopolitical implications in light of the ongoing conflict in Ukraine.

The global markets are expected to react when they open on Monday, June 26, 2023, given past developments in the region and the financial market's response to the conflict. The crypto market may also be impacted by the situation, as Russia's oil and gas market could have far-reaching consequences for the global economy. If there is a dip in stock prices, it could potentially lead to an increase in the value of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. However, traders may prefer Bitcoin as a safer asset in times of global uncertainty.
