Bitcoin remains firmly in the risk-on asset category. Over the past 12 months, it’s maintained a moderate correlation to the NASDAQ 100, right around its five-year average. At the same time, it has stayed largely uncorrelated to gold and bonds. That’s why this risk-on environment is a strong setup for a breakout toward a new all-time high.
