TD₿: Bitcoin Breaking Out and Decoupling - Next Target $135K? (a Swan original video) with Hurley
TL;DR: Bitcoin is breaking away from stocks as the dollar weakens and capital exits U.S. equities. With global liquidity rising, a new kind of bull market—one that breaks the halving cycle is forming
Hey Bitcoiners,
Bitcoin is breaking away from the stock market, reclaiming $90,000 as capital flows out of U.S. equities and the dollar weakens. With rising global liquidity and strong ETF inflows, it’s acting more like a safe haven than a risk asset—gaining even as stocks falter. Since early April, Bitcoin has outpaced gold and equities, with long-watched metrics like its 200-week moving average and global M2 correlation signaling further upside.
In today’s video, Lyn Alden suggests this bull market isn’t following the typical halving cycle but is instead driven by liquidity trends and macro shifts. With U.S. regulatory risks easing and Bitcoin consolidating from earlier highs, the foundation looks strong.
If this pattern holds, $135K may be just the next stop on a longer, more durable climb.

Bitcoin Breaks $90K Amid Market Rally Despite Trump-Japan Trade Tensions
Bitcoin reclaimed the $90,000 level for the first time since March, rising 4.8% to $91,563.27 and posting an 8% gain over two days. The surge coincides with continued stock market turbulence, a weakening U.S. dollar, and renewed political pressure on Fed Chair Jerome Powell. U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs saw $381.4 million in inflows Monday—the largest since late January.
Bitcoin has gained over 10% in April, outperforming gold’s 8% rise, while the S&P 500 and the dollar index are both down 5% this month, signaling Bitcoin’s growing decoupling from traditional risk assets.
