Bitcoin (BTC) is currently experiencing its longest period of outperforming the S&P 500 since 2020. Despite entering a bearish phase in October, triggered by a liquidation event on October 10, the S&P 500 continued to advance. On that day, approximately 70,000 BTC in open interest was liquidated, returning levels not seen since April 2025. This represented the loss of over six months’ worth of accumulated open interest in a single session. Since then, BTC has continued its downward trend amid ongoing geopolitical tensions impacting the global economy. This divergence highlights the pre-existing fragility of the cryptocurrency market prior to the recent S&P 500 downturn. BTC remains characterized by higher volatility and lower stability, increasing its sensitivity to macroeconomic events.
