Bitcoin: Decouples From Equities With 23.8% Weekly Gain

Bitcoin rose 23.8% week-over-week while US equities fell 1.4%, a rare performance spread that underscores the ongoing decoupling between crypto and traditional markets.

Price action on the 4h chart shows BTC at $77480.02 inside a bullish trend defined by EMA50 support at $72111.94 and EMA200 at $66846.36. With the asset testing upper Bollinger resistance at $78700.72 while RSI sits at 67.39 and MACD registers a death cross, a measured pullback toward the 50-EMA appears likely before continuation. This setup supports ongoing BTC price prediction models focused on equity divergence rather than broad crypto market crash scenarios.
