▌CryptoQuant founder: Trump’s Bitcoin depends on the economic status of the United States

CryptoQuant CEO and founder Ki Young Ju said that President-elect Donald Trump’s Bitcoin may depend on the global investment community’s view of the U.S. economy and the strength of the U.S. dollar.

However, investors continue to express confidence in the U.S. economy and view the dollar as a safe haven currency. This advantageous position makes it unlikely that Trump will adopt Bitcoin strategic reserves to protect the dominance of the US dollar, and may cause the president-elect to backtrack on his support for Bitcoin.

▌Analysis: The positive correlation between the Korean stock index and BTC prices is broken, and funds are shifting from the stock market to the crypto market

Asian stock markets have been mixed this year against the backdrop of a strong U.S. dollar. Some have achieved a bull market in stocks denominated in local currencies at the expense of exchange rate depreciation, while others have sacrificed stock market growth at the expense of relatively stable exchange rates. South Korea is the only exception to the partial increase. In terms of the Korean won, the KSOPI has fallen 10.0% this year. After taking into account the fall of the Korean won, the KSOPI in U.S. dollars has fallen 18.9%, both of which are the weakest in Asia. From the perspective of capital flows, since the second half of this year, only institutions in South Korea have maintained net purchases in the stock market, while the residential sector has continued to reduce purchases. Analysts believe that the money Korean residents took out of the stock market was largely used for "currency speculation." According to data from the Bank of Korea (BOK), as of November, the number of cryptocurrency investors in South Korea has reached 15.59 million, an increase of 610,000 from the previous month. Currently, 30% of the 51 million Koreans are speculating in currencies. The average daily trading volume of South Korea’s five major cryptocurrency exchanges—UPbit, Bithumb, Coinone, Korbit, and GOPAX—jumped from 3.4 trillion won in October to 14.9 trillion won in November, an increase of more than four times. Koreans have always been keen on investing in cryptocurrencies. In the first bull market of cryptocurrency in 2017, about 5% of the population participated; in the second bull market in 2021, 10% of the population participatedAmong them; today this proportion has expanded to 30%. However, historically, the Korean stock index and the Bitcoin price have been positively correlated as a whole. Until October this year, this positive correlation was completely broken.
