BTC near $77,578 is trading like a liquidity asset, not a clean inflation hedge. The 2.3% daily decline, alongside weakness in ETH and SOL, suggests broad risk reduction rather than a crypto-specific break. The more useful signal now is whether BTC can decouple from the wider selloff as markets reassess inflation risk and gold flows. Until that happens, I would treat the BTC-gold correlation narrative cautiously and keep a defensive bias. Not advice, just analysis.
