Bitcoin as a Liquidity Indicator

Bitcoin is described as a liquidity sponge, closely linked to changes in global financial flows. Recent decisions by central banks, such as the Federal Reserve's reduction of interest rates by 50 basis points, have led to increased liquidity, benefiting Bitcoin's price more than any other asset class. Historical data shows that Bitcoin has moved in sync with global liquidity 83% of the time over the last decade, indicating its sensitivity to monetary policy changes. This relationship suggests that as liquidity rises due to central banks printing more money, Bitcoin's value is likely to increase in tandem.
