After the holiday break, traders are clearly back in the market — and the impact is visible across assets.
Bitcoin has surged past $90,000, triggering a wave of short liquidations and pushing the total crypto market cap back above $3 trillion. At the same time, traditional safe-haven assets like gold and silver are cooling off, showing short-term weakness.
This shift highlights a classic money rotation. When confidence and risk appetite return, capital often flows out of defensive assets (like metals) and into high-growth, high-volatility assets such as Bitcoin. The strong momentum suggests institutions and large traders are reallocating funds toward crypto as expectations improve for liquidity, ETF inflows, and macro stability.
Another key signal is volume. Bitcoin’s breakout came with rising volume and aggressive buying, indicating this move isn’t just retail-driven. Meanwhile, metals failing to hold recent highs reinforces the idea that capital is temporarily rotating away.
That said, rotations don’t mean one asset dies and another replaces it forever. Markets move in cycles. For now, Bitcoin is leading the risk-on narrative — but smart traders stay alert, manage risk, and watch for confirmation before chasing moves. #CPIWatch #bitcoin #CryptoNewss #crypto #Market_Update $BTC
