Been watching the market lately and noticed something interesting - when bond yields spike, crypto tends to follow stocks down. Bitcoin dropped to $60K earlier, and it wasn't just a crypto thing. The broader market was selling off too. Now BTC is back up around $73.9K, but the correlation is pretty clear. Rising rates make risk assets less attractive across the board, whether it's tech stocks or digital assets. Guess that's why crypto crashes aren't always just about crypto news anymore - we're all connected to the same macro forces.
