GEOPOLITICS IS NOISY, BITCOIN IS RISING

🟡 Neutral — BTC growth amid a stable macro backdrop.

The main thing today is that the market is digesting geopolitical news without a spike in fear: the VIX is low (16.89) and unchanged, the dollar is standing still (DXY 118.73), and yields remain elevated and have edged up over the week (10-year 4.40%, +9 bps; 2-year 3.88%, +10 bps). This means: there is no “fire sale,” but financial conditions still aren’t getting softer — for crypto this is more of a speed limiter than a direct hit.

Against this backdrop, BTC added about 2.75% on the day and закрепился above 80,000 (80,299), and BTC dominance remains very high (58.55%), which continues to pressure the broad altcoin market. Sentiment has worsened: the fear and greed index fell from 47 to 40 — the rise is happening more “through doubts” than on euphoria. Support from institutions looks strong based on the daily inflow into BTC-ETFs (about $630 million), but the weekly total inflows are noticeably weaker than before — for the rally to continue, it’s important that ETF demand doesn’t turn out to be a one-off burst. Compared to yesterday’s state, the market looks a bit more “bullish” on price, but in sentiment — more cautious.

WHAT TO WATCH

1) Sustainability of inflows into BTC-ETFs: continuation of strong daily figures will be key fuel.
2) U.S. yields: a further rise in 2Y/10Y could again squeeze risk appetite.
3) Calendar: on Friday, U.S. labor market data (NFP) — this is the nearest potential “alarm clock” for the dollar and rates.
