During March, we have seen a massive stock market crash in recent memory. This is when we were preparing the Covid-19 pandemic and focusing on social distancing lockdown, etc. The Bitcoin<\/a> market quickly followed suit. This event has given birth to a question, will history repeat itself again? The answer is not that simple according to Thomas Perfumo, head of Kraken, and Eisma, head off the XBTO group.
\n<\/a>
\nIf we are to check statistics we will see that there is a positive relation between S&P 500 and Bitcoins. With the crash in the stock market, Bitcoin’s price plummeted by 58%, during early March.
\nThis creates another debate, is the Bitcoin market really independent of the traditional one. Eisma cited the findings from Coin Metrics (calculated using Pearson 90-day setting) to explain the correlation. According to that, the correlation was positive during the first several months, and then negative.<\/p>\n
