Global oil reserves tell you a lot about geopolitics and market dynamics. Here's where the world's energy backbone sits—and why it matters for anyone tracking macro trends. From the Middle East's dominance to Africa's emerging reserves, these numbers shape everything: commodity prices, currency movements, inflation cycles. For traders watching correlations between traditional markets and crypto, understanding energy supply chains is part of the bigger picture. Check where the heaviest reserves are concentrated and how shifting geopolitics might ripple through asset classes this year.

The Middle East is about to stir again; we need to keep a close eye on oil price trends.

It should be pointed out that the correlation between oil geopolitics and the crypto market has been seriously overestimated. According to on-chain data analysis, this argument was already debunked by the community in 2017—recommend a review.

The Middle East has been holding back all along, I've seen through it long ago. When energy prices fluctuate, the crypto world follows suit. This year's situation is definitely going to be another big show.

ngl oil reserves are just the traditional finance version of supply chain verification... except nobody's got a proof-of-freshness mechanism lmao. if we tokenized geopolitical risk the way we should tokenize farm-to-fork transparency, traders wouldn't be caught off-guard half the time fr
