Bitcoin Correlation With US Stock Market Reaches New High — What’s Happening?

The price of Bitcoin had a mixed performance in the past week, surging to a new all-time high at some point before stabilizing around the $105,000 mark. While price action might have been somewhat sluggish in the past week, there is growing positive sentiment around the premier cryptocurrency — something missing in the first two weeks of 2025. This recent spurt of optimism has seen the world’s largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization continue to spread its wings in the global financial markets. Interestingly, the latest data shows that the correlation between the Bitcoin price and the United States stock market has reached a new high. What Does Growing Correlation Mean For BTC And Investors? In a Quicktake post on the CryptoQuant platform, an analyst with the pseudonym Darkfost revealed that the Bitcoin price has remained closely tied to the performance of the United States stock market. According to data from CryptoQuant, the correlation between the BTC price and the NASDAQ Index reached a new all-time high on Saturday, January 25. For clarity, the NASDAQ Composite is a stock market index that tracks the value of almost all stocks listed on the Nasdaq stock exchange. Along with the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average, NASDAQ ranks as one of the most popular stock market indices in the United States. Darkfost highlighted that the Bitcoin price and the Nasdaq index exhibited a historically strong correlation in 2024, continuing this trend in the new year. Similarly, the price of BTC and the S&P 500 index have been closely tied in the past year, even though there have been brief periods of decoupling. According to the Quicktake analyst, the rising correlation suggests that institutional players are now more open to BTC as an asset class, aligning its performance with the traditional market trends. Darkfost added: With Trump now in charge, expectations of eased regulations, such as the rescindment of SAB 121, could further strengthen Bitcoin’s position as a recognized asset class among institutional investors, potentially accelerating its adoption. The relationship between the Bitcoin and US stock markets has always been interesting, as they provide diverse investment opportunities. However, a strong correlation between these two asset classes is deemed to narrow the diversification opportunities they often offer to investors. Bitcoin Price At A Glance As of this writing, the price of BTC stands at around $104,900, reflecting no significant price movement in the past 24 hours.
