Moreover, Bitcoin’s volatility recently reached its lowest point ever against the S&P 500, the flagship U.S. stock market index that has a market capitalization of nearly $28.1 trln.
As reported by U.Today, Bitcoin’s correlation with U.S. equities reached its highest level against the U.S. stock market in late March because of the coronavirus liquidity crisis.
