Bloomberg Analyst: Bitcoin Could Face Challenges Ahead Amid Correlation with S&P 500

The relationship between Bitcoin and traditional markets, such as the S&P 500 and commodities like gold and copper, suggests challenges ahead for Bitcoin. Charts from Bloomberg's Mike McGlone show a strong correlation between Bitcoin and the S&P 500, indicating that Bitcoin is now trading in line with traditional equity markets. This suggests a shift in Bitcoin's behavior as it becomes more like a high-beta risk asset. Additionally, Bitcoin's underperformance relative to gold raises questions about its long-term position as a store of value. This caution towards cryptocurrencies may become more pronounced if global markets continue to face inflationary pressures or other macroeconomic factors.
