#OriginalBitcoinExchange
#Bitcoin has tumbled to below $91,000, driven by surging US Treasury yields and outflows from spot Bitcoin ETFs.

The US Treasury yield has soared to a 14-month high of 4.79%, pulling institutional money away from $BTC.

On top of that, Bitcoin ETFs saw a sharp reversal, with $718M exiting in just two days. This follows nearly $2B in inflows earlier this month.

Despite the recent drop, Bitcoin remains up 42% since the US election, outpacing traditional equities.

As market conditions tighten and the Fed signals fewer rate cuts, BTC faces short-term risks - Will Donald Trump's pro-crypto policies bring relief?

Let’s dive into the details 🧵

Hello Community!

Remember when #Bitcoin was just a whisper? Bitfinex helped it roar. Keep pushing the boundaries together, with the #OriginalBitcoinExchange.

<https://bitfinex.com/about/>
#Bitcoin has staged a remarkable recovery, surging back above $100K & hitting a new high. All eyes are now on US #inauguration2025.

Last week BTC saw an 18% trough-to-peak recovery, after Short-Term Holders formed a solid foundation after Bitcoin dipped. The rally was driven by US-based spot buying, signalling strong institutional demand. Spot bids may now need time to replenish before the next leg up.

This could lead to some potential market weakness and 'sell-the-news' trading, but the longer-term outlook is still positive.

Will $BTC go higher or will traders ‘sell the news’?

Did Bitcoin miners just find their golden ticket? 🏗

After the last #Bitcoin halving cut rewards in half, miners have started to pivot to AI, turning their data centres into powerhouses for computational intelligence. A gamble with huge potential.

#Bitcoin hit a historic ATH of $109,590 on Jan 20th, fueled by excitement over x.com/realDonaldTrump’s pro-crypto stance & talk of a Bitcoin reserve! But the rally fizzled as momentum faded, pulling $BTC below $100,000.

BTC reacted cautiously to last week’s Bank of Japan rate hike. It also fell sharply on Jan 27th amid concerns over China’s cheaper AI models x.com/deepseek_ai & potential tariffs on Colombia. BTC’s 13% drop in volatility suggests traders expect a period of consolidation for the asset.

⚠️ Rising unemployment claims, inflation fears, & global uncertainty have $BTC traders becoming cautious. With volatility dropping, it could be the calm before the storm.

$BTC dropped below $100K amid tariff hikes, mirroring broader market trends. Despite a 10% January gain, it's consolidating within a 15% range for the past 65 days.

Bitcoin is leading US equities in responding to macro moves.

🔹 Double-top structure seen in both BTC & S&P 500—Bitcoin moved first
🔹 Trump’s tariff announcement hit S&P 500 & BTC even harder
🔹 BTC-S&P 500 correlation at 0.8, a 5-month high

Despite short-term volatility, #Bitcoin remains structurally strong.

Since the US election, $BTC surged from $67K to $100K+, while equities struggled with recovery.

Macro pressures are real, but Bitcoin continues to outperform.

Is Bitcoin now a macro risk asset?
Volatility is cooling, but is a market-wide correction coming? 👀

#Bitcoin has been stuck in a $91K-$102K range for over 75 days as geopolitical tensions rise.

Despite low volatility, $BTC is still highly reactive to macro events.

Is Bitcoin losing its store-of-value status and becoming more of a risk asset?

$BTC’s correlation with the S&P 500 remains strong, while its relationship with gold weakens.

Gold’s rally has added $1.5T to its market cap vs. Bitcoin’s $66.5B. Institutional and sovereign demand favors gold - for now 🤔

But we expect this to change: $196B+ in $BTC is held by ETFs, companies, and nation-states.
With fiat devaluation risks rising, #Bitcoin’s fixed-supply narrative is gaining traction.

Will BTC decouple from equities and become digital gold?
<https://blog.bitfinex.com/bitfinex-alpha/bitfinex-alpha-btc-behaving-more-as-risk-on-asset-less-as-store-of-value/>
#Bitcoin has been trading in a narrow range of $91,000 to $102,000 for 81 consecutive days, with historic lows in volatility. Geopolitical tensions & macroeconomic uncertainty continue to weigh on sentiment, leaving the market directionless.

Altcoins are taking a hit, with meme coins like $PEPE dropping 46.4% in the past month. Meanwhile, Bitcoin's Inter-Exchange Flow Pulse has turned bearish for the first time since June 2024, indicating a potential downside for BTC.

Bitcoin’s still holding strong structurally, but with 81 days of consolidation, a breakout could be near - whether up or down!

What's next for Bitcoin? 🔮
Will it surge or face a correction?
