Of course, such divergence in correlation between risk assets and bitcoin, and convergence between gold and bitcoin, is precisely what should be happening for an asset that was designed to be diversifying, and to hedge inflation, not to be an highly-levered beta on tech names. That said, it is still too soon to tell if bitcoin can move sharply higher as stocks continue to slide and the dollar surges. Incidentally, such a reversal in crypto, where it trade not as a high-beta tech stock, but as an actual alternative to the dollar would be the best news long-suffering crypto bulls will have gotten in a long time.
