TREE NEWS reports: Bitcoin fell alongside US stocks after US producer price inflation came in higher than expected and oil prices surged, pushing the 30-year US Treasury yield to a new 19-year high. The moves came as high inflation and rising bond yields weighed on risk assets.
Bitcoin slides as US PPI overshoot lifts 30-year bond yield to 19-year high
The notable element is the transmission channel: a hot producer price print is reaching bitcoin through the long end of the Treasury curve rather than through crypto-specific news, which reinforces how tightly the asset now trades with macro risk sentiment. A 19-year high in 30-year yields raises the discount rate applied to all long-duration assets, and bitcoin is being treated as one of them. The open question is whether this macro-driven correlation persists, or whether crypto-specific flows reassert themselves once the rates shock fades.
