Proactive's Billy Farrington takes Stephen Gunnion through Bitcoin's highly volatile week, marked by a significant 16% drop followed by a 12% rally. Farrington detailed how Bitcoin fell to a six-month low of around $49,000, only to surge back to around $60,500. He highlighted that this sharp fluctuation resulted in a $100 billion market cap swing within four days. Farrington also discussed the broader impact of this volatility, noting that the NASDAQ, FTSE, and Japanese Nikkei experienced similar downturns. The market's fear of another crash was quickly followed by a relief rally, leaving Bitcoin about 7.3% lower for the week. He also pointed out the staggering $280 million in liquidations on both long and short positions due to this heightened volatility. In explaining the catalysts, Farrington pointed to mixed tech earnings, recession fears in the US, and technical factors like the Bank of Japan's interest rate hike. These elements collectively drove the extreme market movements and emphasised Bitcoin's connection to the broader risk asset markets.
