Global energy markets are anticipated to experience significant easing over the coming years. A widening oversupply of crude oil is expected to push prices considerably lower—energy costs could decline by roughly 12% through 2025, followed by an additional 10% drop in 2026. Brent crude particularly stands out in this scenario, projected to retreat from $68 to $60 per barrel, marking levels not seen in five years. These commodity shifts could reshape investor portfolios and influence broader market cycles in the crypto and digital asset space, as traditional commodity weakness often correlates with alternative asset flows.

Will oil prices drop? Then can my mining machine electricity costs be cheaper? --- When energy is cheap, it feels like the money should flow into the crypto market. Old friends, do you understand this logic? --- Haven't seen this price level in five years. If it's real, those energy stocks would be crying their eyes out. --- Wait, could cheap energy actually be bad for mining? I don't quite understand, right? --- It's not surprising if it drops to 60, but the key is when it drops—next year or the year after? --- So, asset flow depends on how energy moves. Is this a big opportunity or not? --- When oil prices drop, the portfolio needs to be restructured. Traditional investors will panic. --- This 22% decline sounds wild, but it feels like there could be many variables. --- Would a collapse in the energy sector really lead to bottoming out in crypto? Has history shown this before?

Will oil prices drop to a five-year low? Then funds will have to flow elsewhere. I'm optimistic about this crypto wave.

nah this is the thing everyone gets wrong—cheap energy doesn't actually *push* capital into crypto, it does the opposite. when oil tanks, real yields spike and suddenly your btc bags look... well, less compelling tbh. seen this cycle enough times to know how it plays out

Oil prices plummet? Will funds start flowing into the crypto market now? Brent drops from 68 to 60, a price unseen in five years. Is the market about to change? Energy costs down 12%? Those energy stocks must be crying, but this is probably good for on-chain activity. Cheaper, will more people enter the market? Or are they just watching? When oil prices fall, where does the money go? That’s the key question. Prices are expected to drop another 10% in 2026. Traditional finance is about to face trouble. The fund rotation period is here. Which cryptocurrencies should be bought at the bottom?
