Treasury Yield Surge May Not Spell Doom for Bitcoin After All
The 10-year Treasury yield has been rising rapidly in recent months, hitting 5.23% this week and potentially heading towards levels last seen during the dot-com bubble.
For Bitcoin holders, a rise in interest rates can be a cause for concern, as it can lead to a decrease in demand for riskier assets like crypto.
However, not all scenarios are created equal. When the 10-year yield rises due to the Federal Reserve's efforts to combat inflation, it tends to negatively impact Bitcoin prices.
But when yields rise due to concerns over government debt and fiscal worries, Bitcoin often benefits.
