Bitwise Chief Investment Officer Matt Hougan stated that Bitcoin has performed “significantly differently” during the recent market pullback, with its price nearly flat at $84,379 over the past month, showing a fluctuation of only 0.07%, demonstrating rare stability. In contrast, the U.S. stock market dropped 12% during the same period due to market fluctuations caused by Trump’s tariff policies, while Bitcoin performed excellently. Hougan pointed out that since Bitcoin broke the $1 mark in 2011, it has never outperformed during a full stock market pullback, but a historic turning point may be on the horizon. Hougan also believes that as businesses, institutions, and governments increase their Bitcoin holdings, its attribute as a safe-haven asset is gradually overshadowing its positioning as a risk asset.
