Bitcoin’s status as a safe haven was threatened recently when its price fell in line with the global stock market. Suddenly it was perceived as a more risky asset—with investors seeking safety in stablecoins, and cash.
But a report by crypto exchange Coinbase published yesterday begs to differ. While it acknowledges that Bitcoin does sometimes correlate with traditional markets, it often goes completely the other way.
Coinbase Card owners can now add a virtual version of the card to their Google Pay wallet, making it easier for them to spend their Bitcoin in shops. Support for Google Pay covers more than a dozen European countries. Coinbase Card is a Visa debit card that was launched by Coinbase back in April 2019. Coinbase debit card users are able to spend 10 different cryptocurrencies directly from their Coinbase balance at any shop that accepts Visa payments. A look at the Coinbase Card. Image: Coinbase....
A value of 1 indicates a perfect positive correlation, while -1 indicates a perfect negative correlation.
“Bitcoin’s historical correlation with the S&P 500 swings wildly between 1.00 and -1.00, seemingly positively correlated at times then negatively correlated during others. That means BTC has been largely uncorrelated with major stock market indices throughout its history.”
To compare, Coinbase found that the S&P 500 was almost always correlated with the Dow Jones Industrial Average, while Bitcoin was highly correlated with Ethereum.
But there’s one thing they do have in common right now and that’s increased volatility. “By measuring 10-day volatility, the S&P 500 has recently spiked to levels that rival Bitcoin’s typical range. S&P 500 volatility has increased substantially in recent days, and so has BTC," the report stated.
But then, with the stock markets experiencing their worst day in 30 years and Bitcoin the worst day in seven years, that’s not exactly a surprise.
Public Keys is a weekly roundup from Decrypt that tracks the key publicly traded crypto companies. This week: Worrying details from Coinbase The data breach Coinbase told users and investors about last week has gotten a little more worrying. It’s not that more data has been stolen. But the company filed a disclosure with the Maine Attorney General that included a few key details that were missing from its SEC filing and blog post about the exploit. The breach occurred on December 26, 2024, and w...
The Russian Ministry of Energy is considering offering its now strictly regulated Bitcoin mining industry incentives to move to the north of the country. The move follows Russia slapping a Bitcoin mining ban on ten regions (mainly in the south) in January of this year: Dagestan, Ingushetia, Kabardino-Balkaria, Karachay-Cherkessia, North Ossetia, Chechnya, Donetsk, Lugansk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson. Russia to Ban Crypto Mining 'In Some Regions' Due to Electricity Shortages The ban is set to rema...
Kraken will soon offer overseas customers the ability to trade U.S.-listed stocks through the crypto exchange’s platform, the company said in a press release on Thursday. The offering, which covers more than 50 U.S.-listed stocks and exchange-traded funds, will be facilitated through a partnership with Backed, a firm specializing in tokenized securities, using the Solana blockchain to offer so-called xStocks, the company said. Tokenization refers to the process of taking real-world assets, wheth...
