Iran is strengthening defenses around nuclear facilities and other sensitive sites as it prepares for possible renewed U.S. strikes after the Nov. 3 midterm elections, raising fresh regional-risk concerns for crypto markets. Tehran is also preparing for broader retaliation across the Middle East if American forces attack, while rallies and military messaging are being used to prepare the public for a potential conflict. U.S. President Donald Trump has said American forces will not attack Iran before the midterm elections. Any escalation afterward could add pressure to oil markets and investor sentiment across the region.
