Things in the Middle East are got real, real quick. What began with US and Israeli strikes on Iran on the 28th of February has escalated into a full-blown war, and the results are being felt worldwide.
Iran has moved from “reciprocal hits” to “continuous strikes” and has said oil prices could reach as high as $200 a barrel because of the instability in the region.
The Strait of Hormuz has been totally blocked, and 20% of the world’s oil goes through there. Iran has said no oil will be allowed to pass to the US, Israel, or their allies, and any ship carrying oil to these countries will be targeted.
While oil price rose to over $100 per barrel last week, it has stabilized at $90. Gold and silver also surged to $5,417 and $94 per ounce, respectively, before coming back to $5,090 and $82.50. Analysts say some of these moves may be profit-taking and cash-raising strategies amid the decline in stocks.
The big question for crypto is: what happens if this war ends?
The Cardano price has been sliding since last year, and the Iran situation made it worse. Global uncertainty tends to hit risky assets like crypto first.
Charles Hoskinson hasn’t been idle. Cardano’s 2026 plan focuses on improving user experience, investing in dApps, and even includes a buyback program that pulls ADA from circulation.

If the war ends, DeepSeek predicts Cardano could trade between $0.42 and $0.58 in the weeks following. That’s a classic relief rally: the uncertainty lifts, and investors remember that Cardano is actively building.
Longer-term, numbers like $4.50 are possible but require a full bull market with ETF approval and major updates. More realistic targets are in the $2.75-$3.25 range.
Right now, the ADA price sits below most moving averages, RSI is neutral at 43, and the first resistance is $0.27-$0.28. Breaking that could build momentum quickly.

The Pi Coin price has been doing the opposite of Cardano. Despite the war news dragging down Bitcoin and Ether, Pi has been rallying, up 6% today and 35% for the month.
There are several catalysts coming up: the v20.2 protocol update on March 12, Pi Day on March 14, and details about an OpenMind AI partnership. Retail demand is showing too, nearly 5 million PI tokens left exchanges in 24 hours, with one whale moving 5.46 million PI from OKX.
Technically, PI is approaching resistance at $0.2396. A close above that could push it toward the 200-day EMA at $0.2842. RSI is 62 and MACD is bullish.

If tensions ease, the Pi Coin price could jump to $0.65-$0.85, with a shot at $1 if Pi Day momentum continues.
Analysts were already eyeing $0.50 before factoring in a potential ceasefire, so this is a more optimistic but realistic range. Keep an eye on token unlocks, though, 4.8 million moving to exchanges could trigger some selling.

However, if the war ends, crypto markets could get a major boost. Cardano benefits from lifted macro uncertainty, and Pi Coin gains both that and its own event-driven momentum.
The charts, upcoming events, and news all point toward potential gains. The only major obstacle is the conflict itself. Iran is talking about continuous strikes and $200 oil, while Israel says operations will continue indefinitely.
If peace does come, $0.50 for ADA and $0.85 for PI start to look very realistic.
