Bitcoin (BTC), in the opening hours of the trading session today, retested support below $9k for the second time in 10 days.
However, irrespective of the price, Bitcoin has been a center stage for people all over social media and has been luring many investors due to its recent hype after the Coronavirus lockdown. Bitcoin is not just a mere investment but is a power and a transition factor to act as a catalyzer in the traditional investment and financial system.
It has been over a decade since Bitcoin has made its appearance as a digital asset and thereby gained enough lovers and loyalists who believe that this decentralized blockchain-based crypto will have a massive breakthrough sooner or later.
Frequently, Bitcoin is compared to the traditional stock market or the indices of the market, and investors often draw intersections before considering planning in either of the avenues. Moreover, it is observed that the stock market and Bitcoin are drawing correlation since the Pandemic outbreak, yet crypto is seen standing fair support.
Yes, #Bitcoin is positively correlated to the stock markets, especially since the crisis.
However it is not as bad as many people think.
I can smell a decoupling this year or next 🤩 pic.twitter.com/rCtsp5XkSJ

If we understand a practical approach of trading, which is nothing but buying and selling, similarly, trading in stocks or Bitcoin is nothing but a human activity. Trading in Bitcoin or stocks is in common parlance a human activity and cannot be dissociated based on trading factor but can be distinguished based on fundamentals.
Market movements are based on human activity & human nature. #Bitcoin cannot decouple from the stock market until people stop acting on their instincts. Which is not likely to happen. There is no magical force that will make this happen. Gotta be realistic.
