Topic: Thoughts on the World War 3 and its possible impacts on future? (Read 698 times)

war being more complex and complicated could be true. is it just me seeing the war could just be bio like the ones happening in China right now which they have quarantine the whole city?

its one of the most horrendous war but as far as i know there are weapons like this.  not any of the country wants to look antagonist for they'd lose an ally when that happen but making it look like its virus' fault kind of something else.

Yes exactly I know. I learn a lot about religions and about the people and their sub-groups. What I have learnt is that we will get a war that will be the end of the world will be the last war but it is not going to happen now as you stated that muslims are not unite they have shia's and sunnis fighting among themselves then how they are going to fight against some non-believers but I know that when the war is going to happen the will all gather in no time. The last war is much more complex and complicated.



Nothing is going to happen. They will keep doing this for more time and USA will not get anything from it instead bringing war for all...


Yes, Instead of spending that much budget on defence and security if they start working on humanity and making everyone/giving equal rights to everyone we would not need a war but I believe there are people who do not care about these things they need power and power comes with money now and they have many weird faiths..

God help us....

If there is a third world war then it will be between believers and non believers and what you said is precise but there is a problem there, in Islam too there is fight between Shina and Sunnis and countries like Saudi and UAE have Sunni majority while Iran have a Shia majority and so is the reason they do not jell together and the fight started some 1400 years back and it is highly unlikely they will sort the difference and come together to have a war like that, the rumor is that recently the death of Qassem Soleimani was ordered by the US because he was having talks with the Saudi king to have an alliance to fight against the restrictions they are facing economically.

Once things went off, both were not looking for a war and they backed off, US had some casualties but they played down the situation as everything is fine and if they really wanted to go for a war they would have done that but the consequences will be really high as the possibility of China and Russia siding with Iran and then the allies might even turn on the US in the midst might have reverted the situation.

War is money for some and the common people will get affected if there is a war and hopefully we will not go to those extremes as majority of the countries are spending billions to showcase their military strength and if those kind of money is used for other noble causes the world would have been a better place but the reality is different  .

It is true that everyone does have their funny opinions  , if there is a world war in the nuclear era then the entire globe will be destroyed as the nuclear war head everyone possess are more than enough to destroy majority of the globe and it will drag everyone to the stone age as it will take a really long time to rebuilt everything, communication sector will be badly affected and everyone will be blind for a long time if that happens let alone anyone thinking about wealth they will run for their safety .

If there will be a war. There will be still internet because it is the primary source of information and communication for every country. Bitcoin will not die because of war, it will prosper instead because of the demand that bitcoin could get when people panic about saving their wealth through the power of bitcoin and its decentralized system.

Not only will the global economy collapse if a large-scale war is to happen. It will also impede with technological progress as the manpower required to carry on technological progress will then be allocated to arms race. And since bitcoin's heart is the internet which needs constant maintenance, it is highly likely that bitcoin will die if a war were to happen.

USA and Iran can be the main cause to triggers world war 3 but i think most of countries in the world don't want it and they will prevent this from happening because if this is happen then it could be the biggest war ever in the history and i think if world war 3 happen then no more crypto users because the impact for majority countries will be so huge although maybe not all countries involved but from economy side it will resulting in a global recession

We already made solar panels to create electricity from the home itself so it won't be much harder to generate electricity which is needed to run electronic devices like smartphones or notebook so there is no more old age.

War War III in a military way will not happen, as all the major countries which could try to start one between themselves (about the global domination) already have nuclear weapons. And since the Cold War, we see that the fear of MAD (Mutually Assured Destruction, inevitable wiping out population of involved countries, which will lead us to the new ice age because of the amount of radioactive dust in the atmosphere) is too strong for a real war to emerge unless we get 100% effective ways of making nuclear arsenals ineffective (like capacity of shooting down all the missiles). Best of what can be done are smaller, so-called proxy conflicts, where indirectly big players compete with each other using smaller countries/fractions in case of civil war to compete or fight each other.

And the Cold War ended because of the economy.

This is basically a crawling world war - a war where one country is winning, as companies from this country are major global players crushing their foreign competitors; establishing your currency as a dominant one and influencing culture in a way that people want to buy products developed or produced in your country. As well as imposing foreign tax tariffs weakening export from countries and economic sanctions are right now an equivalent of battles.

Not that we will ever have anything like a world war ever again (countries have better technology) but even if there was anything resembling that type of war, we have nukes and bombs nowadays, we won't have people going to other land that much and fight there, we will just have nations bombing each others civilians and that's it.

I know that is horrible and we all would probably die (along with some politicians as well) and that is bad enough but honestly considering it is that type of horrible possibility that keeps the nations not attacking each other as well. Think about USA firing a missile against Russia, that would basically trigger an event where 100+ million people might die, so both nations would probably try to stay away from that as a scenario.

World War 3 could be the nastiest war ever if it happens it could trigger human extinction. Who would want to go another world war anyway? Nations already learn a lessons from previous and it did not ended up pretty well, the would undergo a reset and only civilians pay the price.

There is really no point of having war. If the conflict between countries can be settled down by peaceful discussions, much better. Sometimes it is the pride that cause this unnecessary fight, no one wants to back down. So if a particular head of the country really is thinking of the welfare of its people, they will do the peaceful negotiations rather than sending his people to war.

Who cares about crypto if WW3 takes place. It is seen that people of all countries want peace and unity globally but politicians try to mess up and create panic among their citizens making them believe that a crucial situation may arise and the citizens become 'the ringing bell' here for no reason. It is not just electricity, but the morale of human being will also get down if WW3 ever takes place. I am left with a few years of my life and expect no war, just pray for peace everywhere all the time. 🤞

Moreover reason we don't hope to see a world war 3. There is nothing fun about it. Many believe that if there is one, cryptocurrency price especially Bitcoin will rise. But what's the need of having a raised price in Bitcoin when everywhere is in conflict. When electricity is down, spending Bitcoin becomes difficult.

https://www.cnbc.com/2020/01/22/good-chance-of-a-us-iran-deal-if-trump-is-reelected-damac-chairman.html

Have you read this latest news? It says that according to a Dubai based nobleman, Trump wants to make a deal with Iran if he's re-elected. A political move or a possibility of peace happening between both these countries during this stressed environment? I think Trump is all into making US declare a war against Iran 'before he goes out of power'.

It's funny that everyone says pretty controversial things. Some are sure that in the event of a global global military conflict, cryptocurrencies will be a priority, while others say the opposite.
Personally, I believe that if all of us turn off electricity, then we will return to the Stone Age, where we will not have time for cryptocurrency.

it may happen but will probably depend which battleground, they can easily attack if the battleground is in middle east after all the US have done it many times before. it will have a war since Iran got support from China and Russia but if they aren't in the picture, it will just be an invasion and that's not new anymore.

none of these powerful countries will allow to be the battleground of course but sure they can shoot each other right where they are. China however has the advantage since they already had built their surroundings. i think they already control the air in southeast.

We are not going to get a war among USA and IRAN if the war happens it will be between world. These kind of things will keep happening and soon we will see that world war will be started among muslims and non-muslims that is what I am seeing.

Lets put that aside and assume that IRAN and USA will go on war then what will happen the allies of USA will get on his side and IRAN will ask help for war from his allies making a global war. I hope they must come to table and talk about the issues they have but this is not going to happen.

Future? There will be no future after world war 3 everything will be destroyed and this time if WW3 happens the world will be destroyed in seconds do not you think?

i don't think there is a meaning of thinking about economy after third world war. because i dont think there will be enough people remaining in the world to create economy or mine or trade.
As Albert Einstein said, "I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones." This shows that he believed that civilization as we know it would be gone.

I just give them the benefit of the doubt since we cannot confirm that the reason for all of the drama is just for their political agendas. But honestly mate, you are making sense. Why there's something like this happening during the issue of Trump's possible impeachment? Is he trying to shift the eyes of everyone (including media) away from him? Hmm, I smell something fishy . Anyway, whatever the real reason behind this it doesn't important anymore. The better thing to do is to fixed this before a great war starts because the victims are not them but their innocent countrymen.

I really hope so. But with the current tension happening between USA and Iran, it is not impossible to happen unless other country will remain neutral at the very end. Let's hope their presidents will remain cool headed (Am I wishing too much?) because I can see that their artillery is not a joke for mankind. They can really make a lot of damage right to their own country so I hope diplomatic talks could work .

In my own opinion, every rich people will really make their own safe assets, if the world war 3 will happen because everything will fall apart, but not safe assets like gold and bitcoin because it will not lose it's value if there is a war. I also think we should really not depend on the internet that bitcoin will increase it's value if the war will happen because we can't really say and predict everything about bitcoin

There are fundamentalists in the internet that saying the price of the bitcoin will increase if the world war will happen because there are now people who seeing it as a safe heaven, investors will worry to their money and they want to keep it safe. Bitcoin is now a safe assets for others so the fundamentalists saying that the war has a big effect to the price of the bitcoin. But it is just a opinion and we should not just rely on the news in the internet. It is still better if we will focus on current price action.

Trump is fully aware that war brings harm to America compared to its rewards. This can be seen when he dismissed his national security adviser John Bolton whose foreign policy always contradicted Trump's views. Bolton's aggressive and confrontational policy.

John Bolton always took aggressive and confrontational steps (there was no war that Bolton did not like) so that it impeded several of Trump's main targets, including negotiations with Taliban, re-agreement with North Korea and talks with the President of Iran. The main reasons for Bolton's policy are high cost, war is high-cost and regime change is high cost.

The essence of the containment policy is, by boxing the enemy, without intervention and attack, the enemy will die alone. We take the example of the policy of the United States to compartmentalize China. different from the plural Soviet Union, China is the majority of the nation's Han, its belief is one Confucius, so it doesn't divide it from within. But it is contained from outside. In the north of China, it was contained by Japan, on the other hand, the influence of China on the Peninsula was contained by South Korea, then Taiwan on the other side and the last was on the side of Southeast Asia namely the Malacca Strait where America built the US-Indo-Pacific. Policy boxing like this is a low cost to Trump who incidentally a businessman.

Why does the United States maintain its military strength in the world, the simple answer is to justify its economic power. The stronger a country's military defense, the more stable the country is.

Honestly, I doubt we will ever see a WW3. As aforementioned, the big powers know that if they were to start then most life on earth (especially humans) would be wiped out. I mean, USA used the first Atomic bomb back in 1945. That's almost 80 fucking years ago. One can only imagine what kind of power lies in the super weapons that have evolved since. Nobody wants to play a game that results in both teams loosing...bigly...

But politics are politics and money is money.. And that's why proxy wars are for

I don't think that there will be a world war 3 because the major countries are now cautious with their actions because they know what the war can bring to them and to its alliances. The technologies that we have now are more powerful than ever before so with the potential of destruction, the countries are now more on settling it through peace talk rather than going all out with war.

they waged war because there was a trigger for conflict like what happened to America and Iran some time ago, even though America has enormous power and is hard to defeat but must be able to maintain peace not show arrogance about a very large and unmatched power, it is only will trigger other countries that are also trying to destroy America.

if there is a third world war it will certainly have a big impact on the world economy. especially if the war is a big country like China, America and the world's oil producing countries. and certainly war will always bring destruction. so there must always be an effort to avoid war. and I think the people at this time are very sensitive and always protest when conflicts occur between countries. so that the third world war can be avoided.

but what is happening right now is that the situation is starting to subside, of course this is done because if a war breaks out the natural resources that are there will be damaged, so there will be no results after the war. therefore I think the soft track will still be implemented. before the war will certainly take into account the profit and loss that can be

To impose their will on others.

Previous world wars took place in a world where commerce between countries was vastly more basic and vastly less intertwined. Now world war would not be good business. That's why it'll never happen again.

Lots of toy wars will take place instead.

All of these inferences arise because of the situation between the United States and Iran and both had a go at each other and with the global pressure they are settling their differences by striking at each other and then looking for the next step on how they are going to deal with the situation, Iran might have nuclear power and the missiles reached the United States base in Iraq while they boast on having the best anti missile technology but in this instance it was no use and i am still scratching my brain about the reason.

Holy hell! I am so overwhelmed by some of the replies on both threads I made, and reading some interesting takes on the whole scenario, I will reply soon to some of the intriguing opinions soon.

Also, I am quite surprised that many of you think, another world war cannot happen. US has invested in Military and weaponry more than anyone else, why do you think that is the case? Why do you think North Korea has so many nuclear weapons? Its not for NOTHING, I will tell you that much.

There is really nothing good to comeout from this past events, the war between the countries would only result damage for both of them, people or army losing their lives, families broken, and expenses for arms and services. Both party would suffer from financial loss for nothing.

War always occurs when humanity reaches a certain level of abundance. This is a rather strange phenomenon, but it is a fact.
Now in the world there are a lot of unsolved problems and unstable military situations. I doubt that in such a tension a global conflict could arise.

This is good news indeed at the very least. One thing we can now guarantee is that a large-scale war wouldn't happen, or at least we have kept it at bay. Nevertheless, I'm still hoping that these continue to go on because if it doesn't and war happens, cryptocurrencies are not gonna be in the best position. Bitcoins are basically embedded in the internet. And since war obstructs technological advances and uses it for militarisation instead, I believe the internet won't be accessible for us.

Iran and US, although they have some bad terms on having a war which is I don't think that might happen because first of all if the Iran will triggered the US to have a war or start a war then probably it would be a huge problem to them because we all know that US is one of the most strongest country all over the world and they are the one who have the most advance technology, so in technical analysis there is no chance that Iran will survive or to win,  Iran will just throw money and effort to fight US which is have a complete soldiers and advance technology. So maybe that would be probably one of the main reason why both parties stay calmed.

As of today, situations have calmed down and moreover both the US and Iran are dealing with their own internal issues and I don't think Iran would afford to go on war with US at this point due to internal conflict and daily protests which had partially paralyzed the country before the assassination of general Solemani, Iraqi protests to keep Iranian out of their country's internal affairs and the casualties it has faced due to involvement into MiddleEast battlefield. I don't think they would go for war.

I don't blame you--if we all had complete information about what's really going on behind the scenes instead of having to rely on spin doctors and biased media outlets, we might be able to make informed judgements about things.  People might not have elected Trump in the first place, but the problem is that the public is basically kept in the dark.

That's true in the sense that the military battle would be fought there, but I shudder at the thought of reprisals by individuals happening within the US.  Terrorist attacks in lieu of Iran invading with its troops.  Civilians ought to be kept out of it IMO (on both sides).

Since this is the Economics section, my opinion is that if a major conflict were to get kicked off we'd probably see gold & silver skyrocket.  Not sure what would happen to bitcoin, but it would be interesting to see how it reacted--but I'm not hoping to find out, honestly.  I'd rather see an impeachment and an end to this political tension.

Both parties would not go that far I think, if Iran ever have the guts to go head to head with US, then maybe it will be their dooms day and most of their enemies in the gulf like the Sunni Muslims would be happy about that, and surely will help the US army in their fight. And if it really happens, then so be it and let's see whose country will side Iran, I think there would be few, even China and Russia would have doubts to support Iran, maybe for it is because these two would probably want both countries lose their armies, and certainly China and Russia would be laughing at their backs.

Agreed, at any point if some political pressure ends up in a war this isn't gonna get turned to be world war. If such war happens surely there'll be drastic fall in the economy of Iran and the countries involved in the war. This looks like a issue between two countries, but indirectly more countries will get involved as well as there'll be more countries benefiting and experiencing economic crashes. The outlook is a petty issue, but the in depth issue won't be revealed to the outer world.

Things aren't as serious as hyped by the media. You can read the recent tweets from Trump and you will find the soft tone in them. Things are getting cold and it is hard to believe that we will see any potential war from this point of time. Moreover, even if any such war happens between Iran and US, it is hard to believe that it will end up in World War. This is a issue between two countries on very trivial matter, no other country will join war fought on such petty issue.

Of course, a third world war is possible. However, not in this case because of the conflict between the USA and Iran. Both in the USA and Iran, we see sharp protests against the escalation of tension between these countries. Trump is prevented from doing this by Congress, and in Iran, his own citizens and the world community.
However, a global war is possible; now the Russian government is a constant hotbed of military tension. We see that there are quite a lot of such centers in the world, moreover, the third world war may well arise due to a malfunction of technology and human errors. Like the one claimed by the Iranian government regarding a downed Ukrainian civilian plane. However, in this case, I do not believe something in some kind of accident and error.

What changed was the USA public. Thankfully all the previous wars were in the years when social media wasn't around, "social media" has a lot more weight than it sounds because normally people chulk it up as places where people share their meals and so forth but reality is we get our news from twitter more often than TV news channels nowadays, at least quicker. With 2003 Iraq war, that social one got a little bit more famous, 2004 was when Facebook was created and by enough time everyone was talking about it, the horrifying truth about war and what it costs, not just death but lives ruined as well.

So in 2020, of course people are aware of what war actually does to a nation, even if it is in the land of Iran, american public is affected. Back in 2003 EVERYONE was in favor of war, country was patriotic, with that 9/11 being so soon as well in memory, war was something you couldn't be against or you would be labeled treator. Now everyone is against it, all public wants no wars with Iran and wants to stay away from it, they want to stay in their nation and not fight with another middle east country yet again.

As said by the posts here, there are these protocols they need to follow.

Unlike in the past where war is something done when you just want it, nowadays there are rules in declaring a war into other countries. I think it is great since war can be lessen, with the harassment of Iran to America, something sparked and I am glad that it did not continue, still, a lot of people are talking about Iran taking down an Ukranian plane.

Even though there's no recent news about the conflict between the U.S. and Iran, World War III is still possible depending on their future actions. If they continue to make attacks, it will be a never-ending attack with each other. As for Iran competing with U.S., they can do it regardless of how powerful the U.S. is. They already made their attacks so they can do it again. Iran has its allies to support them. But the consequences of WWIII is it will cause a huge damage to the country. From the properties to people. It will make a huge loss to all the businesses of the affected and involved country. It will kill thousands of people, and not only Iran and U.S. are going to be affected when this happens. It will cause a huge damage to the whole economy. And after the war, what will happen? It will take so much time for a country to recover from the damages.
If their president isn't smart enough, of course, there's someone in the government that won't agree with this war. Because it will just do no good for the country.

I believe none of these countries intentionally want to start a war. However I wouldn't discount the possibility that one can be sparked "accidentally". For example China's aggression in the S China Sea region is sometimes compared to that of Germany's leading to WW2 (a former Philippine president even compared this to the Sudetenland Crisis).

It seems that the reason is different in that China mostly want these islands for security reasons and it itself don't have a strong motivation to invade claimants for (aside from Taiwan of course) the way Germany did. And why would China want to kill its customers? Still, there's a web of alliances in this region and a single misstep could drag several countries into the fray.

Back to Iran, I think it'll be the last country that would want WW3 to explode on its face. It's economy isn't doing well, there's massive unrest, etc. It'll lose more than it can gain in such a conflict.

The third world war can begin any day. It is very likely that this can happen by mistake or because of a fateful combination of circumstances. The world has been on the verge of a third world war several times, which this time will be nuclear. In such a war, it is already difficult for humanity to survive. According to predictions, a similar war will occur, but humanity will survive this time too. It is possible that humanity will be alienated in technical development many centuries ago. Of course, humanity will simply forget about cryptocurrency, as well as about the Internet.
About twelve thousand years ago, aircraft flying under the name of vimana took off from the territory of modern India and battles were fought in near-earth orbit. Aircraft consisted of material that is not yet accessible even to modern technologies. Where is this knowledge now? They are destroyed forever. We are already somewhere in the sixth to eighth civilization on planet Earth. Will humanity even now step on the same rake? It seems that we learn little.

Despite seeing the massive destruction from wwI and II, big powers are still not settling for peace rather they are planning for ww3. If ww3 happens neither fiat nor digital currency will survive since there will be rear chances of life after ww3

Soon or later there will be a big war no doubt about it. The power will be shifted. But that won't between Iran and USA only, that can be the World War 3 and that time all the fiat money will be avoided, the digital currency will be the only way to use in larger scale!

War is a terrible thing that brings a lot of grief to people. Some people watch events from the news and are interested in this topic. But imagine that missiles are launched at your homes... these are terrible things. War always brings complete destruction to the economy of the country being attacked. Humanity is developing, technologies are developing very quickly, it is better to solve existing problems of people and build a happy future for their fellow citizens.

We can't say that it haven't any world war soon because if a lot or number of country do affect from the war from some country then we would fight. Because there are people doesn't stop until they've got what they want. Be prepared because we can still not safe from this world.

Quality of life as we have now would be totally ruin. Even if for some lucky chance there would not be some mayor nuclear war, there would be other ecological catastrophes. Most people would die in upcoming years. Mainly diseases maybe starvation. Humans would survive and after peace would come back would slowly rebuild.

So who's at fault here? If this will not be a war then someone is bullying someone and that might not spark a war but something that will be passdd and might start in the near future. It is also said by my coteachers that a war is inevitable, it might not happen this year but no one knows, it might start in the near future. I am not asking for any wars, I don't want that but the possibility of it happening, is it that high?

with how china trying to expand their territory and their dispute with several countries over the territory, it'll be just a matter of time before another war or world war started. it may not
happen this decade or the next decade but it'll come. me being in a weak country hopes that no world war will ever happen again but it is just inevitable(at least in my view). also, as their
population, military power and economic power increases it's only a matter of time before they surpass U.S.A

There will never be another world war. It's bad for business in a way it wasn't a few generations ago. Everything is now too interconnected.

There'll be brief skirmishes and endless wars fought between proxies. The only open warfare between larger powers will be economic.

There is a reason they call it theatre of war. Amount of lies and misinformation by both parties has only one goal, confuse and misled outside observers, in order to drive them closer to theatre of operations. Creation of a melting-pot situation seems of up most importance today. There is also a case of a test on how, so called allies, will react and what kind of forces are at the disposal of your adversary. I think we saw just that, things that media are practically silent about is the role of Hezbollah in this debacle.
What we were seeing there was imo a classic mexican-standoff, where quite an impressive arsenal was presented to an American challenger. Presentation is of course is one thing, direction in which weapons are facing is the other. It was presumed that more than 100K earth-earth ballistics where aimed in general direction of the "most important ally". 'We were not involved and should not be dragged into it,' Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said but no body was actually asking... and the situation was magically de escalated. Serious threat of a global conflict was in my opinion at play, this should not be taken lightly. On the other hand, how else this mystical global reset can be triggered? War mongers are real, just like Eisenhower said, the catastrophic misplacement of power have happened, are people ready to address this issue? Regardless, the course of living in "interesting times" is upon us. Winter is coming and our (btc) market is already in reaction to it.

Now, both countries are silent and calm but we don't know what will they do in coming years because they have a lot of issues not only the death of one of their Generals. Although US just killed a certain person but Iran really did something brutal other than that. They shot a Ukrainian plane and it is much worst than the killed General. But if the war continues, it will really destroy a lot of agricultural society that will leave people dying and they can encounter famine.

No World War III would happen. I'd say both Iran and US know the repercussions of an event such a war, so I doubt the feud between the two would escalate to that. A war would only most likely happen in this world once resources are being started to be fought over, and diplomatic talks are not enough to calm those countries whom are in the brink of losing their resources.

Still, I kind of understand the fears and assumptions of the people, with how the current "supreme" leader is acting towards the US president, as well as towards the results of the "accidental" hit of missile of Iran to the Ukrainian plane. Then there's also Trump, we all know how Trump acts and really, his actions are sometimes unpredictable and most likely goes against literally what everyone wants. Though I doubt that both of them don't know what War really entails.

the economy and politics will always coexist even though its implementation is always absurd, when the US attacked Iran a few days ago Iranians thought their currency would fall and then exchange it for commodities, and after that the crypto market rose a few percent overall, I don't know whether this was caused by war or not, but it would have an economic and political impact from both countries or spread to other countries.
I do not know whether this war was deliberately made by the US in the interests of their political or economic interests. Clearly the war would have a huge negative impact not only on the two countries but other countries affected as well.

The US doesn't care about Iran's oil, they have plenty of their own oil, and oil itself will be less important in the future because of the rise of renewables and the threat of climate change.

 This whole incident with Iran shows that no one wants WWIII, Iran didn't escalate after the killing of their general, the US didn't escalate after missile attacks, Ukraine and Canada didn't escalate after the plane got show down, Russia and China did absolutely nothing all this time. Look at the history of WWI - all countries wanted to go war, and with WWII Germany and Soviet Union were very eager to go to war, but this time it's nothing like that.

As for impact on the future and economy, it's really pointless to talk about it, there's way to many scenarios - maybe it will be nuclear apocalypse, maybe the war won't be that destructive, and without knowing who will win it, you can't know how it will impact the world.

political turmoil between countries has created insecurity and greatly affected the economy for the people. then they will proactively look for assets that can help them store the value of their holdings to avoid inflation. then it will be easy to find gold and Bitcoin, one of the reasons is that the supply is limited and all are essential assets in the future. So my conclusion is that when WW3 happens, people will soon be looking to Bitcoin or Gold and the price of both of them will increase dramatically.

Maybe you would look at editing this war titlld post because it looks instigating to me and for responses that I have read, it looks like a bitter discussion to people .
For me the Iran and US disagreement is merely an interest thing and not a war. Although, commodities and currencies might be influenced.

Nobody wants war at this point in time, things are very much different now, a button can start and end a wat in an instant and can wipe many countries, Iran and the US is very much aware of that, whatever Trump motives it should not escalate to war, we have decent and sensible men who will stop that because it's catastrophe if it happens.

It is highly unlikely that World War 3 is coming from Iran or the US-Iran conflict. I even doubt that World War 3 is coming from the Middle East. Even if Iran will strongly stand against the US and will retaliate in a violent manner and the US will finally attack the oil-rich country, it will not really escalate into a World War. If it becomes a full-blown war, Iran will succumb in less than 20 days. And I don't believe Russia and China will let themselves be dragged on this game.

Everything is now different actually. Even the delivery of news is on social media and they are trying to spread a fake news. Actually it is impossible for the USA and Iran to have a war. This is not the old days where in you can just start a war. Today is completely different. We have so many things to consider like UN and laws that assures that war cannot be declared in just a snap.

The more modernize we get, the more harmful it is for the economy and the people who will be affected. Unlike the previous wars that was like years years ago, today's defense and weapons are more powerful so it can really kill a lot of people. But with the current situation, I don't think world war 3 would happen because of their conflict. The tension isn't heating up as of the moment which is good to calm both parties. I just hope they are not planning and preparing for any other attacks.

Rather than war with different countries, we're now facing a war with the environment. And I don't think that Iran will really start the war. They are just a small country compared to US. and US won't start it either. A lot of American citizens Don want Trump and any wrong move from Trump he can be impeached from his position. So I see no war will happen.

Well there are things that don't add up (Iran warning the US that they'll launch missiles) but as far the embassy in Baghdad is concerned, there is danger involved, or at least that's what I saw in the news with the embassy being mobbed, reminded me of the takeover of the embassy in Tehran. Most people I talk to agree that Iran warning the US was more a move to placate their populace without getting dragged into full-blown war. Like "OK, you caught us causing unrest in Iraq and you retaliated already, now let us deescalate this".

Too bad for them though shooting down the passenger plane (which I believe is truly an accident out of incompetence) meant things will not be OK for Iran for sometime as people protest more. I'd say the US got off this conflict easy. Like most people I believe there are resource-involved motives for this but by what mechanism it will unfold is still unclear. Who knows maybe they are already trying to force a regime change in there.

There are no eternal opponents and friends, only eternal interests. This will be done by Iran to survive the United States embargo. Here are some steps were taken by Iran

- Collaborating with Turkey even though it is an American ally in NATO because of the interests of facing a common threat of Kurdish armed separatist groups in a region that collaborates with each other in Turkey, Syria, Iraq, and Iran.

- Partnering with Russia
The two countries both support President Bashar al-Assad and are both against ISIS terrorists and pro-Western opposition. As far as Syria is concerned, the interests of Russia and Iran are complementary, because the two countries consider the Assad government as their valuable partner. Unfortunately, there is no strong economic foundation in this relationship because both Russia and Iran are oil-exporting countries, making it difficult to increase trade volume.

- Collaborate with China (TINA - There is no alternative)
The military of the Iranian Navy, China and Russia had conducted joint exercises in the Indian Ocean and the Gulf of Oman in December 2019. Nevertheless, China was seen as an unnecessary option during a crisis. The Chinese government can indeed provide a rescue path for Iran, especially when Iran is very much under pressure from sanctions. Thus, there is a longstanding perception and doubt in Iran, about over-dependence on China in the long run.
In contrast to Russia, Iran has a strong economic foundation with China, that is, Iran can be a reliable supplier of China's growing need for crude oil, and will offer better prices, and even barter for oil under US sanctions.

In essence, the American embargo on Iran has also created a wave of awareness in many countries in Asia, such as India, Japan, South Korea, and even European Union countries trying to create unique financial mechanisms to access Iran's energy resources.



In my personal opinion, since the security advisor was replaced by Robert O Brian from John Bolton, there was a difference in the concept of Trump's foreign policy from being aggressive to a containment strategy. Bolton was aggressively replaced because of the policy suggested by Bolton to be expensive for America and make other countries vigilant.

The consideration for not continuing the War in Iran is with consideration (profit loss calculation). America is beginning to realize that the conflict in the Middle East is very complex and that all policies with Iran relate to the Trump First concept for forward and winning support in the second period.

- Pro Israel policies to get financial support from Jewish donors and Christian Evangelists
- Venezuela's total embargo policy, to win votes in the state of Florida
- Conflict with Iran to get support from the Reb Republik party in the impeach session

US is always known to be a conqueror, if it wants something, it uses firepower and intimidation, together with penalties on trades to those who go against their will. Even if they say it's because of an 'imminent threat', killing someone on foreign land, especially a General, looks like an attempt to weaken the nation's morale.

A war isn't always good. It cripples the economy, even if they use cryptocurrencies. Most businesses would close, and there's no improvements if there are no participants like businesses. It might generate a short-lived pump though, but everything would be crashing, even stocks of local countries are affected.

Though those that aren't with the war might recieve minimal effects. But in a world war, it's either you're on the other side or not. Unless you established a neutrality like Switzerland.

First of all.A war in the Middle East will stay in the Middle East.Don't call it World War 3.
Second.No politician in the world is so stupid to start a WW3,not even Trump.
The Iranian "revenge" was silly.Why would they warn the US bases in Iraq before the missile attack?
Most of the people in Iran wanted revenge,so the Iranian government imitated "revenge".The missile strike served for  domestic propaganda purposes inside Iran only.

To be honest, I am really confused.

It is said that this is Trump's fault, some say it is really Iran's fault and they are really plotting something to America. I don't know what to believe in and I know for sure, winning aside, something is also fueling this war, get it?


Iraq? No, they are getting oil from Saudi and other countries too.

As far as I know, Iran threaten USA to attack Saudi if they take a revenge from attacking Iraq where one of the bases of America is located.

There will be no such war. People have to take assumptions from what they read in news and then use that to make conclusions and then added are some spicy delusions to make it into a new conspiracy theory or a new news article to post in every social media they can. Talk about mental health being a problem with social media being a big risk factor.

Yeah but things happen with shills and scum being extremist and not using a little bit of logic. A war may seem nice to someone but it is not as it has been evident from what the effect of war has been from history. Those who have been the survivors of war know its effects and that is the reason why we have had so many movies, games only showing how bad war is for humanity.

It is only a method of market manipulation here. Trying to either move the economy from the US-centric markets to other markets. Thats my opinion though. Bitcoin only moved up from 7k to 8k level for the time being. Dont think its related in anyway.

I would say if there's a WW3, then any dominant fiat of any country would fall, which means the dollar would lose its value and surely be replaced by a decentralized coin, which is none other than bitcoin. But, if there's WW3, it will also mean death of internet and electricity. So yeah, then also Bitcoin won't survive!

We're past the times of territorial wars so I doubt anything huge would probably come up. The populace would rather resolve this in a way where only the two leaders fought back to back, without the innocents being harmed, and if Trump and the "supreme" leader had brains, they'd avoid doing such things. Not only that, if they ever did do such a war, other countries would not just stand by and watch, and would most likely erupt into not a war between the US and Iran only, but other countries joining in and taking sides. Of course, if one side dominated the other, it'd end pretty quickly IMO.

The US is currently adopting a waiting stance IMO to what Iran is actually going to do before responding, and for whatever reason Trump attacked the Iranian General. If Trumps goal was the Oil from Iran, it's a very badly made move, cause not only did he fail, he met with setbacks regarding Iran and as well as his closest allies, him being threatened of his closest allies by backing off from their alliance.

Now there were some articles that discussed the attack being a form of deterrence against the country of Iran, but it clearly backfired with how the Iran is acting right now.

First, there will be no big war between the USA and Iran so we can only be dealing here with skirmishes like what happened recently. Both country can never afford, at least for now, a major showdown plus the international community is quite reluctant to fully support such an effort. It will be safe to say that we are getting wary of any war and even if there will really be a big imminent threat most people will just be burying their heads in the sands (so to speak).

With the economic embargo imposed on Iran, there are many ways that it survived in the past and the country can just be using the same effective strategies. Iran has friends on high places, those who are working to undermine the overall interest and leadership of the USA. Iran has been working with countries friendly into it under a subtle environment and it can surely tap the same thing anytime. We have nothing to worry that Iran will collapse because it is very strong at the moment.

So the whole thing started off as a meme on twitter, people were going crazy about it, the moment they heard news that Qasem Soleimani was killed by an US drone. At first, everything seemed all so scary, people were scared on how Iran would respond, and hell was breaking loose on the Streets or Iran. This goes two ways now, while Qasem Soleimani was a terrorist according to US, and has caused a lot of stuff in the past, some Iranians were still mad that US had murdered their major General, and they started chanting "Death to US" on the streets. On the other hand, many Iranians were happy that their General was dead. Now, how did Iran respond? They warned the US bases in Iraq that they were going to launch missiles 6 hours before they did, giving the US soldiers enough time to evacuate the base. And while this happens, Trump tweets: "All is well!"

Now to the US side of things: The entire US is confused and perplexed on why all this happened. The Trump administration claims that Qasem Soleimani posed an "Imminent threat" towards the US, and apparently, 4 of their embassies were at potential risk. Weirdly enough, this was not the case, according to the Defense Secretary, as to him: there was no sign of an "Imminent Threat" towards anything. And whilst all this, Iran "accidentally" shot down an Ukranian Passenger plane.

Politics all aside, nothing adds up. The US has been wanting Oil from Iran for years now, and this was somewhat of another failed attempt at it. Iran's tariffs are to be increased, and also, if things do go Haywire, Russia and China have Iran's back, they have held "Naval drills" in the Gulf of Oman.

Now considering all of this, how is an economy like Iran going to stand up against the US? And how is the possibility of another World War contribute towards the whole global economy? I am still intrigued on the possible outcomes of how a modern-ized war will affect the overall economy. Also, could it be possible for Trump's attack on Iran be more of an Economic move than just mere politics? Something has to be there, right?
