The "mmekọrịta” here is a measure of how the price of Bitcoin changes in response to movements in other assets like stock market equities.

When the value of this indicator is positive, it means BTC’s correlation with that asset is positive right now. This means that the crypto’s price is moving in the same direction as the asset’s.

On the other hand, a negative correlation implies that the price of the coin is responding to changes in the asset by moving in the opposite direction.

The chart also shows that the cryptocurrency’s correlation with DXY and Gold has been negative during recent months.

As per the report, the growing institutionalization of Bitcoin may be the cause behind the increasing correlation with the stock market.

Investors have been treating the coin as a risk asset, and as long as this mindset continues and the stock market continues to struggle, BTC is likely to remain tied to Nasdaq and S&P 500.
