I opened my eyes this morning and the market made me laugh.
Gold fell below $4,000, and silver followed suit.
U.S. crude fell below $90, while Brent is hanging on at $92, pretending to be tough.
The U.S. Dollar Index hit a 19-month high, looking absolutely pumped.
10-year Treasury yields topped 5% intraday.
Then I took a look at Bitcoin.
It was up 0.1% in 24 hours.
0.1%.🙄
Assets around the world are either plunging or soaring, while Bitcoin is just lying there between $73,000 and $74,000, flatter than I am.
Even ZEC knows to play along with the mood and drop 8%, but Bitcoin hasn't budged an inch.
People used to call Bitcoin digital gold. These days, I'd say it's more like a digital couch potato—

The options market now puts the odds of BTC falling below $70,000 before Christmas at 31%.
It was still 15% last week—doubling in a week.
The share of put options surged from 36% to 55%.
Some even spent $14,000 on put options for 300 BTC betting it would fall below $60,000 by the end of the month.
Interestingly, the fear index is only at 28.
Not 0, not 10, but 28.
The market is afraid, but it hasn’t completely panicked yet.
I’ve seen this play out too many times:
When the odds jump from 15% to 31%, the whole feed is full of “it’s going lower.”
Once it actually drops, those same people turn around and say, “I should’ve bought the dip.”
They’re not reading the market; they’re looking for evidence to justify how they feel.

Last night’s CPI report shattered a lot of people’s worldviews.
October CPI rose 0.4% month over month, versus expectations of 0.3%; core CPI rose 0.3%, versus expectations of 0.2%. The numbers weren’t outrageous, but they were enough to push the odds of a December rate hike above 85%. Waller even put a 50-basis-point hike back on the table.
Then we saw something very interesting: gold fell nearly 3%, dropping below 4,050; silver fell 3.55%; BTC fell 1%; the dollar index rose to 102.2; and the 10-year Treasury yield briefly topped 5%.
Gold, Bitcoin, and silver—the three things commonly called “safe-haven assets”—all fell on the same night. The only thing that rose was the dollar.

There’s been almost an embarrassingly large amount of good news for crypto this week.
Coinbase secured a U.S. national trust bank charter, effective Friday, allowing it to offer compliant custody services under federal oversight. Two years ago, that news would’ve been enough to send prices soaring. The Democrats won both chambers of Congress in the midterms, putting expectations of a regulatory shift on the table. Stablecoin legislation, ETF options, looser custody rules—any one of these could’ve filled three articles.
So what happened? BTC fell 1%, ETH fell 2.4%, and even touched 2,000 intraday.
I looked through headlines from a few media outlets and had a laugh. The Nasdaq fell 0.74%, and the headlines said it was “under pressure”; crypto fell 2%, and the headlines said “crash,” “breach,” and “plunge.” Same CPI report, same night, two different vocabularies. Pretty ridiculous.
