Domestic gold prices opened the new week (April 6) with a broad decline from the previous week’s close, as world gold prices fell due to positive US jobs data, raising expectations that the Federal Reserve will keep interest rates high for longer. As of 13:45 on April 6, domestic gold…
The traditional relationship between Bitcoin and Federal Reserve policy decisions has fundamentally changed. For years, the pattern was predictable: monetary easing pushed prices higher, while tightening pushed them lower. That dynamic has now reversed.
According to recent analysis from Binance Research, Bitcoin has shifted from a reactive asset to one that anticipates monetary policy shifts. The research examines 41 global central banks using Binance’s proprietary Global Easing Breadth Index.
Before the January 2024 approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs, Bitcoin showed a modest +0.21 correlation with worldwide easing patterns. After ETF introduction, the correlation inverted to -0.778, a reversal described as nearly three times as powerful.
According to Binance Research: “BTC may have evolved from a macro ‘lagging receiver’ to a ‘leading pricer.'”
The transformation is attributed to a shift in market participants. Prior to ETF availability, retail traders controlled most cryptocurrency activity and typically reacted to news and rate announcements after they occurred.
ETFs changed the market’s participant mix. Institutional capital now represents a significant portion of activity and tends to establish positions half a year to a full year ahead of anticipated policy shifts. These participants process macroeconomic information more quickly and execute earlier.
With this change, Bitcoin is positioned as a more predictive gauge rather than a trailing asset. The analysis suggests markets now incorporate expectations about future Fed actions, rather than responding only to past decisions.
