Some consolidation, but risk-off sentiment remains
A reversal following the tail-end of last week’s wipeout has seen BTC book a 5% weekly gain. ETH continues underperforming as ETHBTC remains at lows not seen since December 2020 with ETHUSD hovering around $1,900. Macro and global uncertainties reinforce risk-off sentiment for both traditional and crypto markets. Gold continues its impressive performance as a safe haven asset in this environment, while BTC remains uncorrelated to gold with 90-day correlations at -0.034. Wednesday’s FOMC meeting likely brings volatility to a relatively docile market as traders digest the dot plot and forward guidance.
