I thought BTC was supposed to not be tied currently to the stock marker but I find it weirdly strange that while the stock market is crumbling so is BTC, and many other commodities.
Bingo!
Yes, Bitcoin is a high risk asset, and when speculators are greedy bitcoin is going up more than stocks, and when stocks go down bitcoin crashes.
It's simply about human emotions fear and greed. Right now the market is beginning to be more fearful and is dumping risk assets such as bitcoin and is buying into gold instead.
