The Crypto Market Has Stopped Noticing Stock Market Problems

Bitcoin Shows New Strength Holding $70K Despite Market Headwinds

The crypto market has been holding steady at around $2.4 trillion for the third day in a row. Current values are slightly above those from seven days ago ($2.35 trillion) and slightly below those from 30 days ago ($2.45 trillion), meaning that, for over a month now, prices have been stuck in a narrow range after the collapse in the second half of January. This lull may well continue. For comparison, the previous consolidation took more than two months, even though it occurred in a wider corridor.

Bitcoin is feeling more confident at levels near $70K, settling at the upper limit of the consolidation range of the last four weeks. It is difficult for Bitcoin to grow amid a strengthening dollar and falling stock indices. But the very fact that it is holding steady against this backdrop supports hopes for a fundamental change in sentiment compared to previous months, when almost any news was a reason to sell BTC.
