Macroeconomics and Crypto Assets Market Trends

Market Trends

Macroeconomic Environment

A recent research report from a digital asset management company predicts that by 2025, more countries will incorporate Bitcoin into their national strategic reserves. Analysts point out that an increasing number of countries, central banks, and government departments may establish strategic positions in Bitcoin to address economic challenges such as inflation and currency devaluation. The report also mentions that if the U.S. advances its Bitcoin strategic reserve plan, other countries may secretly accumulate Bitcoin to avoid publicly announcing it, which could trigger price increases.

encryption market volatility

Recent U.S. employment data shows a strong performance in the job market, with accelerating inflation in the service sector, putting pressure on expectations for interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve. Market analysis suggests that the Federal Reserve may only implement one rate cut in 2025. As a result, U.S. stocks fell, and the Crypto Assets market experienced significant volatility. Bitcoin dropped from over $100,000 to $96,181, with a 24-hour decline exceeding 4.8%. Other Crypto Assets saw even larger declines, many exceeding 10%. Additionally, after two consecutive days of large net inflows, the Bitcoin spot ETF experienced net outflows, reflecting market concerns about the economic outlook and the direction of monetary policy.

Hot Events

Politics and Crypto Assets

A certain tech entrepreneur recently praised a Canadian Prime Minister candidate who supports Bitcoin. The candidate advocates that the best way to tackle inflation is to cut government spending and expressed a vision of making Canada the "global blockchain capital." He has long supported Bitcoin and believes that Canadians should have the right to use Bitcoin and other currencies. According to prediction market data, the candidate has an 89% chance of winning the Prime Minister position.

Enterprises adopt Bitcoin

More and more listed companies are beginning to follow the example of a well-known company by incorporating Bitcoin into their balance sheets. Since 2024, several companies have adopted Bitcoin financial strategies. Some companies have announced Bitcoin purchase plans but have not yet made actual purchases. Other companies have started accepting Crypto Assets payments and retaining some Bitcoin. This reflects the market's recognition of Bitcoin as an asset and the strategic adjustments made by businesses in response to inflation and liquidity demands.
