According to Cointelegraph, Bitcoin recently fell below $79,000 after facing significant selling pressure around $82,000. Market analysis suggests that the current BTC trend is highly correlated with the U.S. small-cap stock index, indicating that it is still viewed by the market as a "risk asset" rather than a safe-haven tool. Analysts point out that the escalating situation in Iran, rising oil prices, and concerns about a global economic recession are continuously suppressing market risk appetite. Meanwhile, the funding rate for Bitcoin perpetual contracts has recently turned negative, indicating a significant lack of demand for leveraged long positions, and traders remain cautious about short-term increases. However, the report suggests that in the medium term, large-scale capital outflows from the fixed income market may actually be beneficial for BTC.As global government bond yields rise to decades-high levels, investors are gradually withdrawing from the bond market, and some liquidity may flow back into risk assets, including Bitcoin. Currently, the yields on 10-year U.S. and European government bonds have both reached multi-year highs, while Brent crude oil prices have also surpassed $100, exacerbating market concerns about inflation and economic pressure.

According to Coinglass data, the Coinbase Bitcoin premium index has been in negative premium for 11 consecutive days, currently reported at -0.0545%, as purchasing power in the U.S. market continues to remain sluggish. Previously, it had been in positive premium for 19 consecutive days.The Coinbase Bitcoin premium index is used to measure the difference between the Bitcoin price on Coinbase and the global market average price. A negative premium typically reflects significant selling pressure in the U.S. market, a decrease in investor risk appetite, an increase in market risk aversion, or capital outflows.

Cryptocurrency analyst Marcel Pechman stated that Bitcoin rapidly fell back after being rejected at $82,000 on Friday, dropping below $79,000. The movement is highly synchronized with the U.S. small-cap stock index, indicating that macro factors are the main driving force behind this round of decline. The Russell 2000 index, which covers small and medium-sized enterprises, has a higher capital cost and is more sensitive to interest rate trends. The high correlation between Bitcoin and this index suggests that the market currently characterizes Bitcoin as a risk asset rather than a safe-haven tool.The funding rate for Bitcoin perpetual contracts briefly turned deeply negative on Thursday and remained close to 0% on Friday, with continued absence of long leverage demand—this indicator has been below the neutral threshold of 6% for several weeks. Multiple attempts to breach $82,000 have failed to boost market confidence. Macro pressures have been piling up: the outcome of the U.S.-China summit disappointed the market, with no specific tariff agreements reached aside from a commitment to accelerate U.S. agricultural exports over the next three years; meanwhile, the ongoing war in Iran continues to weigh on market sentiment, with Brent crude oil prices jumping from $99 to $106 in the past week, further exacerbating inflationary pressures.Additionally, the inflation-adjusted Shiller price-to-earnings ratio shows that the S&P 500 index is currently only about 5% lower than its peak during the internet bubble in January 2000, indicating a significant contraction in overall market risk appetite. However, the massive sell-off in the fixed income market may provide mid-term support for Bitcoin. The yield on Japan's 10-year government bonds has risen to its highest level in over 20 years, while the yield on the Eurozone's 10-year government bonds has also surged to 3.18%, a 15-year high. Analysts believe that in response to recession risks, central banks may be forced to inject liquidity, and funds flowing out of fixed income may ultimately seek other asset allocations, with Bitcoin likely to benefit from this.
