today I read the news that Iran has warned about "more serious revenge" against the United States. such statements are not some kind of joke and what exactly they can do? 
I believe that 2020 began very poorly if you look at it from a political point of view.
If the disagreements between the US and Iran will continue, this could end badly. How will this news affect the market? can they start to sharply raise bitcoin at the price? if bitcoin will grow fast, then altcoins will be even worse
If things keep escalating then it is possible that we are going to see a war between those two countries, this could benefit bitcoin and make the price of it to go up as people get worried about it and they decide that they need to store their wealth in a way that no government can steal, but I do not see altcoins gaining value by this conflict if anything they could go down because no one is going to be interested to speculate with them when they have more important things to worry about.
