GEOPOLITICS IS TESTING NERVES, BTC PULLED BACK

🟡 Neutral — liquidity is strong, but anxiety is high

The key storyline of the day is the geopolitical risk premium: against this backdrop, the VIX remains elevated, although it has noticeably declined over the past day (21.15 vs 23.57). The dollar is unchanged and remains very weak relative to recent months, which generally supports risk assets, but the rise in real yields to 1.8% adds “friction” for BTC. The liquidity environment is still favorable: net liquidity increased over the day and is up more than 1% over the week.

In crypto, the picture is mixed: BTC, after yesterday’s surge, turned downward and returned to $70,545 (from $72,814), and the sentiment index is back in the zone of pronounced fear (18). At the same time, institutional demand looks resilient: daily inflows into BTC-ETFs were $461.77M, and for the week already $2.14B — this is keeping the market from a deeper drawdown. Compared to yesterday’s “upswing,” the market has become more choppy: the upward impulse is not broken, but now it depends more on the reaction to NFP and on whether anxiety returns to the stock market.

WHAT TO WATCH

1) NFP release today: strong data could push real and short rates higher and intensify pullbacks.
2) VIX dynamics: holding below 20 usually makes it easier for growth to continue in crypto.
3) Inflows into BTC-ETFs: maintaining the pace after NFP is the main “anchor” for the price.
