Why Bitcoin Could Keep Falling Even if AI Stocks Recover – 2026 EOY Outlook
Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
Bitcoin slid to $75,000 last week as Wall Street’s AI trade sold off on valuation concerns and regulatory risk, and it failed to follow the Nasdaq’s 1.1% rebound on Friday, holding near $76,000 over the weekend instead of reclaiming the $80,000 level it had previously recovered. The divergence matters because it suggests crypto is no longer trading simply as a high-beta proxy for tech stocks, with bitcoin’s inability to rally alongside equities pointing to crypto-specific headwinds. Traders will watch whether bitcoin can reclaim $80,000 if AI-linked equities stabilize, and whether continued weakness persists even as the Nasdaq recovers.
