Shorter-term breakdowns can occur around crypto-specific events like exchange hacks or Ponzi schemes collapsing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Supply-demand imbalances also cause temporary decoupling when Bitcoin reaches extreme overvaluation levels during market cycle peaks.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Yet despite these breakdowns, the long-term relationship persists.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Right now, liquidity is soaring to unprecedented levels, suggesting Bitcoin could soon embark on a massive bull run if this relationship holds. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>While I believe no model perfectly captures Bitcoin&#8217;s complexity, recognizing its role as a monetary canary in the coal mine can lend valuable insight.<\/p>\n<p><strong>If history rhymes, Bitcoin&#8217;s sirens are ringing loudly that a liquidity-driven boom will soon be underway.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>      <span class=\"field field--name-uid field--type-entity-reference field--label-hidden\"><a title=\"View user profile.\" href=\"https:\/\/cms.zerohedge.com\/users\/tyler-durden\" class=\"username\">Tyler Durden<\/a><\/span><br \/>\n<span class=\"field field--name-created field--type-created field--label-hidden\">Wed, 10\/02\/2024 &#8211; 17:00<\/span><\/p>\n<p>\u200b<a href=\"https:\/\/www.zerohedge.com\/crypto\/unsurprisingly-bitcoin-price-follows-global-liquidity\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">https:\/\/www.zerohedge.com\/crypto\/unsurprisingly-bitcoin-price-follows-global-liquidity<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Unsurprisingly, The Bitcoin Price Follows Global Liquidity Authored by Vivek Sun via BitcoinMagazine.com, I have been intrigued by the significant increase in global liquidity during&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":1493567,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1493566","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","wpcat-1-id"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/bugaluu.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1493566","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/bugaluu.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/bugaluu.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bugaluu.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1493566"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/bugaluu.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1493566\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bugaluu.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1493567"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/bugaluu.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1493566"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bugaluu.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1493566"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/bugaluu.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1493566"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
