Why It Matters: Bitcoin touched an intraday high of $47,313.48 on Sunday. Volumes remained muted compared with weekdays.
On Friday, Edward Moya, a senior market analyst with OANDA, referenced the $1 billion investment by the Terra (LUNA) blockchain into Bitcoin.
“Bitcoin needs a couple more major investments in order to make a run above the $50,000 level and that might take some time given the global bond market selloff,” Moya wrote in a note.
The S&P 500 and Nasdaq closed 0.3% higher at 4,545.86 and 14,261.50, respectively, on Friday. U.S. stock futures were marginally lower at press time.
Cryptocurrency trader Justin Bennett said it was not a “good look” for the S&P 500 failing to hold above the 4,600 levels. He urged caution on Twitter, saying “if stocks puke next week,” they would drag cryptocurrencies lower with them.
