Analysis: The impact of U.S. Treasury yield shocks on risk assets, Bitcoin falls below $79,000

According to Cointelegraph, after the U.S. stock market opened, Bitcoin quickly fell, briefly dropping below the $79,000 mark, with a daily decline of about 3%, reaching a low not seen since May. The market generally believes that this round of correction is closely related to the sell-off of risk assets triggered by the surge in U.S. Treasury yields. Data shows that the yield on the U.S. 10-year Treasury rose above 4.55%, reaching a nearly one-year high, raising concerns in the market about tightening liquidity and the reassessment of risk assets.

Analysts pointed out that this level had previously triggered adjustments in U.S. stocks and policy expectations last year, and it has now become a key pressure signal again. Trading firm The Kobeissi Letter stated that the "crisis-like rise" in the U.S. Treasury market is intensifying, with long-term high interest rate expectations heating up. The market has begun to factor in the possibility of future rate hikes, leading to a rapid cooling of the previous "euphoric sentiment" in risk assets.

From a technical perspective, analysts believe that after multiple rejections of resistance above $82,000, the support structure for Bitcoin is weakening, and it may retest the $75,000--$77,000 range in the short term, as the market enters a phase of range-bound fluctuations and directional choices.
