I don't think that people use crypto as a "safe-haven", at least not for now. Maybe when it will be more established in a couple of years. Currently it's just speculation and hype that drives the price. When people feel a need for stability, they will try to stay liquid, reduce consumption, maybe buy some gold, but they will shy away from investing in a speculative asset like Bitcoin, except if in the middle of a new hype.
