Bitcoin price fluctuations reflect the tendency of macro economy affected by the US policy change. Despite the $ 100,000 DIP, BTC shows structural strength and is affected by institutional interest and economic factors.
Bitcoin (BTC) has recently been consistent with the development of the macroeconomic economy and the change in the United States, as reported by Bitfinex recently. Over the past week, bitcoin prices have fallen below $ 100,000. This is a movement that is expected to be part of a wider market revision. Despite the start of 2025 with an increase of 10 % in January, bitcoin has slowed down, and in the past 65 days, the price range of 15 % has been charged.
Macroeconomic impact on bitcoin
Bitcoin’s price tracks are increasingly reflecting US economic policy under President Donald Trump, and recent publications have caused a remarkable reaction in the market. S & P 500 saw a decrease of 0.5 % after these announcements, but bitcoin experienced a greater decline. As a result, Bitcoin and S & P 500 have a 30 -day rolling correlation in five months, indicating bitcoin behavior as a macro -driven risk asset.
Structural strength despite short -term volatility
Despite these short -term fluctuations, bitcoin maintains structural strength for a long time. Since the US election, Bitcoin has surpassed $ 67,000 to $ 100,000, exceeding the conventional market index, which has shown consistent recovery.
US economic situation
The US economy shows robust consumer expenditures and resilience associated with economic growth, but faces the policy uncertainty and inflation issues. The Federal Reserve maintains 4.25 % to 4.50 % interest rates, showing cautious approaches to monetary policy until inflation has calmed down. In December, the actual consumer expenditure increased by 0.4 %, further strengthening economic growth, but complicated the policy decision of the federal preparation system.
Cryptocurrency sector and institutional profit
The cryptocurrency sector is extremely extreme, as the US economy is working on resilience and uncertainty. MicroStrategy has acquired additional 10,107 BTCs for $ 1.1 billion, increased the total holding to 158,400 BTCs, and Metaplanet raises $ 74.5 billion to expand bitcoin reserve, and has a strong bitcoin as a hedge for economic instability. I emphasized institutional beliefs.
Furthermore, Tether is integrated with Bitcoin’s Lightning network, enhancing $ 140 billion USDT StableCoin and promoting faster and more efficient global running columns. This development fills the security gap between StableCoins and Bitcoin, and expands Bitcoin’s utility to a paid network beyond the Value store.
