Why It Matters: Yields on the benchmark 10-year Treasury yields continued to fall on the second day in a row. The yield fell 3.4 basis points to 2.693% on Wednesday, according to a Reuters report.
Bitcoin needs to show “more signs of life” as yields continue to decline on Treasuries, said Edward Moya, a senior market analyst with OANDA.
“A lot of the institutional money is seeing better volatility in equities and commodities and that might prevent some of the momentum buying that we normally see after Bitcoin defends a key technical level,” said Moya, in a note seen by Benzinga.
Moya said the $40,000 level remains “key” for the apex cryptocurrency and should hold if the risk appetite remains intact.
