Much Wow
Coins Do Not Care About EPS
As we have addressed over the past month, cryptoassets were nonreactive to the onslaught of gruesome tech earnings this week. At the time of writing, bitcoin, ether, and the rest of the crypto ecosystem have vastly outpaced the Nasdaq.
As we can see below, a major contributing factor to crypto doing so well is yields rolling over for the first time since early October.
Some questions that remain now are:
- How much relief will we see over the rest of this quarter?
- How much will crypto’s relative strength be able to avoid any periodic uplift in rates?
If we get a prolonged drawdown akin to the one that we saw from June through August, it is possible that we see a rather aggressive rally to the upside through year-end.
The chart below frames the recent magnitude of the pullback in rates relative to global interest rates via the pullback in the dollar. This chart displays the deviation of the $DXY from its 50-day moving average. Clearly, we have seen a relatively sharp drawdown recently.
Interestingly, throughout this year, we have witnessed this metric drop sharply on several occasions, but this appears to be the most extreme deviation from this moving average since the beginning of this year.

BREAKING AWAY While we maintain that macro conditions are still the most critical factor in assessing the medium/long-term trajectory of BTC prices, daily returns of the leading cryptoasset continue to exhibit a lack of defined correlation with any major macro asset. To us, the biggest reason for this sustained lack of correlation is the advent of the spot BTC ETF. A prime example of how ETFs are influencing BTC's performance...
WEATHERING THE STORM Heading into Q1, the key risks identified were: (1) A potential QRA supply shock, as long-term interest rates could surge due to a possible shift in bond issuance towards longer-duration securities, (2) the repricing of interest rate cuts, as the Federal Reserve downplayed expectations regarding the timing and frequency of such cuts, and (3) concerns regarding the dynamics between the expiration of the Reverse Repurchase Agreement (RRP)...
QRA IN LINE WITH MARKET EXPECTATIONS _THE RESULTS_ The Treasury’s quarterly refunding announcement (QRA) was the first of two major macro events to transpire on Wednesday. Leading up to this, on Monday, there was an indication that the net borrowing for the current quarter would be $760 billion, which is $55 billion lower than the initial $815 billion estimate, and the total funding needs for Q2 would be just over...
THE GBTC PROBLEM We have been watching spot BTC ETF flows closely since their launch two weeks ago, and while overall net flows remain decidedly positive, the market seems hung up on GBTC outflows. As a reminder, the outflows we care the most about are those from entities that are not rotating into other spot BTC ETFs. This is comprised of some speculative capital that played the run-up into ETF...
