Crypto market defies tech stock slump as Bitcoin breaks $66,000 amid Trump rumors

Bitcoin and the cryptocurrency market in general are recovering despite the bearish trend in equity markets, especially in technology stocks, pointing to a break in correlation between the two.

The flagship cryptocurrency has surged more than 4% in the past few hours, reaching $66,377 at press time, based on data from CryptoSlate.

Meanwhile, other major tokens like Ethereum It is Solana are up 2.24% and 7.8% respectively — with ETH trading at $3,482 and SOL at $170 at press time.

Technological correlation

The cryptocurrency market saw a significant surge as trading in New York began, rising to new monthly highs despite most stocks falling at the same time. This is a notable break in the correlation between crypto and tech stocks, specifically, which have mostly moved in tandem since roughly 2020.

Correlation has often been linked to growing adoption among institutional investors, who view Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies through a similar lens as tech stocks, leading to synchronized trading patterns.

Studies have shown varying degrees of correlation between Bitcoin and technology stocks. For example, during certain periods, the correlation coefficient between Bitcoin and the NASDAQ-100 index (which is heavy on technology) has increased, indicating a stronger relationship.

Despite the growing correlation, there are still periods when Bitcoin and tech stocks diverge due to unique events that affect the cryptocurrency market, such as regulatory news or significant developments in blockchain technology.

Market uptrend

Bitcoin’s latest rally is fueled by several factors, the most prominent of which are rumors that former President Donald Trump may plan to announce intentions to make BTC a strategic reserve asset to the USA.

Trump has completely shifted to a pro-crypto stance in recent weeks as the issue has become increasingly important among many voters. He has won widespread support among technology and cryptocurrency industry leaders who believe their policies will be more favorable for both sectors.

Strong support from a presidential candidate currently favored to win has given Bitcoin a fresh boost after it fell to a multi-month low amid recent selloffs in Germany.

Meanwhile, Solana has been outperforming most of the top 10 tokens as the meme frenzy continues to grip the community despite a significant slowdown compared to earlier in the year. The latest rally in SOL has also led to a notable increase in most of the top memecoins.

SOL’s momentum is primarily driven by increased adoption and the expectation that it will be the next token to receive the ETF treatment. Several companies have already filed applications for a Solana spot ETF.

Here’s the next target for BTC before bulls can hold out for $70K

Bitcoin’s recovery is going well, and the market is seemingly poised to create a new all-time high in the near term.

Technical analysis

Per NegotiationRage

The daily chart

As the daily chart shows, the price of Bitcoin has been rising since it broke above the 200-day moving average.

The market has also reclaimed the $60K and $65K levels and is moving towards the $68K resistance zone, which could be the last hurdle before creating a new all-time high. With the RSI also indicating that the price has clear bullish momentum, it could be just a matter of time.

The 4-hour chart

Looking at the 4-hour chart, it is evident that the price has been rising rapidly since breaking the downtrend line to the upside. The market also broke the $65K resistance level with momentum, turning it into a support.

While almost everything points to a new record high in the coming weeks, there is one worrying sign. The RSI is showing a clear bearish divergence between recent price highs, which could indicate a correction or even a reversal in the near term.
