#BTCvsMarkets 1. Performance (YTD 2025)

BTC: Roughly +38%

Nasdaq-100: Around +12%

Bitcoin is still outperforming traditional tech-heavy markets in terms of raw returns.

2. Volatility

BTC is significantly more volatile. 30-day historical volatility for BTC is usually 2–4x higher than Nasdaq.

Great for big gains, but higher risk.

3. Correlation

In 2022–2023, BTC had a high correlation with Nasdaq (0.6–0.8 range).

In 2024–2025, that correlation has weakened — Bitcoin’s moving more independently again, especially during market sell-offs or major macro news.

4. Macro Factors Impacting Both

Interest Rates: Fed policy affects both, but Nasdaq is more sensitive due to tech sector leverage.

Inflation/Geopolitics: BTC sometimes reacts like “digital gold,” decoupling from equities in uncertain times.

TL;DR:

#BTCvsMarkets — Bitcoin is back to being a standout, higher-risk/higher-reward asset, while Nasdaq is climbing steadily with less volatility. They move together at times, but BTC is becoming more of its own beast again.
