Capital is shifting into digital dollars as bitcoin wilts



By Omkar Godbole (All times ET unless indicated otherwise)

The big news of the past 24 hours is that the Fed, the world’s most powerful central bank, is unlikely to provide a meaningful bullish catalyst in the near term, and markets are reacting negatively.

As sentiment weakens, capital is flowing not just out of altcoins but also out of bitcoin $BTC$69,657.53 and into stablecoins, which are essentially tokenized versions of the U.S. dollar.

The Fed on Wednesday kept U.S. interest rates unchanged, explicitly warned of a high degree of uncertainty and offered no hints on what the inflation-activity balance could look like following the Iran war-led oil price spike.

Bitcoin dipped below $70,000 early today and is now down 1% since midnight UTC, extending the decline from nearly $76,000 earlier this week. The CoinDesk 20 Index and major tokens such as ether ($ETH), solana (SOL) and $XRP ($XRP) are following $BTC's lead.

Bitcoin's dominance also dropped, falling to 58.7% from 59.4% in three days. In other words, its share of the total crypto market has declined with the price, a sign that even the largest cryptocurrency is seeing capital outflows. Traditionally, its share would rise during market slides as investors rotated into $BTC from alternative cryptocurrencies, or altcoins.

This time, they are rotating into stablecoins. The world's leading dollar-pegged tokens, USDT and USDC, share of total crypto market cap has increased to 7.76% from 7% and from 3% to 3.35%, respectively.

The behavior is a sign that investors feel safer in dollar equivalents, understandably so, as the Fed's lack of clarity has left financial markets at the mercy of oil price swings. The energy market seems broken, with the Strait of Hormuz disrupted, leading to wild, erratic energy import bills worldwide that will ultimately add

Bitcoin holds $69,000 as gold tumbles, oil spikes, but analyst says stay on sidelines

While bitcoin has shown relative strength against gold since the war in Iran broke out, investors are better off holding off "dry powder" while prices swing wildly on headlines, said Wintermute's Bryan Tan.
Bitcoin slipped to $69,000 but held up better than many traditional assets as Middle East tensions and attacks on energy infrastructure rattled global markets.

Oil prices swung back toward $100 a barrel, stoking renewed inflation fears and expectations that central banks may keep interest rates higher for longer. Meanwhile, gold and silver tumbled to their weakest levels since early February.

Bitcoin has outperformed gold since the Iran war, but the lack of follow-through above $75,000 suggests investors should remain cautious with dip buying, Wintermute trader Bryan Tan said.

Bitcoin BTC$69,164.63 drifted toward $69,000 on Thursday as the deepening conflict in Iran is spiraling across the Middle East, hitting energy infrastructure and spilling into global markets.

Oil remained at the center of the action, as investors pulled back from risk amid fresh headlines around attacks on energy infrastructure. Prices swung back toward $100 a barrel after a Politico report said the U.S. is not considering a crude export ban, reversing earlier declines and keeping inflation worries alive.
That backdrop weighed on traditional markets, especially as investors began to consider that central banks might delay rate cuts or even mull rate hikes, wary of inflationary pressures from an energy shock and supply disruptions. The S&P 500 and Nasdaq slid nearly 1% in morning trading, both hitting fresh 2026 lows.

The more notable move, though, came from metals. Gold dropped 5% to around $4,500 an ounce, its lowest since early February, while silver fell 6.6%,...

Solana (SOL) is currently trading around $90, attempting to build on a recent rebound. The cryptocurrency's bullish outlook hinges on a crucial support zone between $82.6 and $85.55. This area has seen significant accumulation, with approximately 76 million SOL changing hands, representing over $6 billion in value. This concentrated ownership suggests strong demand that could absorb further selling pressure.

Technical analysis indicates that Solana may have completed a 38-day accumulation phase, potentially exhausting sellers and thinning out resistance levels. If this support holds, bulls might see a clear path towards retesting $100 and potentially aiming for $115. This scenario suggests that the path to $100 is less congested than the current support zone, which could lead to a rapid price increase if momentum builds.

BTQ Technologies Launches Quantum-Protected Bitcoin Testnet

BTQ Technologies has released version v0.3.0 of the Bitcoin Quantum testnet. The key innovation is the first operational implementation of BIP-360 -the P2MR standard, designed to protect transactions from quantum computer attacks.

Although BIP-360 is already included in the official repository of Bitcoin improvement proposals, work on it in the Bitcoin Core client is virtually non-existent. BTQ has outpaced the main network by turning a theoretical proposal into working code.

BIP-360 addresses a vulnerability in Taproot, which exposes public keys on the blockchain. This makes them potentially vulnerable to Shor's algorithm on quantum computers in the future.
