Bitcoin’s earnings this week are in even more contrast to traditional and macro markets. This „decoupling“ of stocks, which Cointelegraph reported earlier, shows no signs of abating.

As Cointelegraph analyst Scott Melker ironically summed up on Twitter

For the analyst Michaël van de Poppe, paying too much attention to the correlation of markets in times of crisis and then it is a dangerous game.

„When the shit hits the fan (which was in March), all correlations tend to go towards 1,“ he tweeted on Thursday:

Meanwhile, Cointelegraph Markets‘ latest technical analysis shows several metrics that suggest once again that BTC is on its way to the key level of USD 10,000 again.
