🚀 Bitcoin goes free-floating: Correlation with tech giants has fallen to zero!

It seems that we are witnessing the birth of a new financial era. Fresh data from analyst Maartunn suggests that Bitcoin ($BTC ) has finally decoupled from the stock market.

📉 What has changed?

Previously, BTC was often called a “leveraged tech stock” because it moved in unison with the Nasdaq index. But as of December 25, 2025, the situation is radically different:

• Correlation with Nasdaq ≈ 0: Tech stocks can fall or rise, but Bitcoin no longer copies their movements.

• Negative correlation with gold: BTC has ceased to behave as a classic inflation hedge, building its own path.

🔍 What is driving the price now?

Instead of external economic factors, internal ecosystem drivers have come to the fore:

1. Spot ETF flows: Institutional capital dictates its own rules.

2. Miner Behavior: Internal network dynamics have become more important than Fed reports.

3. On-chain Liquidity: Real demand and coin distribution are now the main benchmarks.

🐂 A sign of maturity or a harbinger of a rally?

Analysts believe that such “independence” could be a sign of maturity for an asset. Historically, when the correlation with the Nasdaq turns negative, Bitcoin often forms a price bottom before a strong rally.

$BTC is currently trading around $87,444. Despite the low Christmas trading volume, the market is preparing to enter 2026 on a high note.
