The price of bitcoin hovered around $48,325 on Friday. Its price has fallen 8% in the past week, alongside rises in bond yields, but is still up 70% year-to-date. "Bitcoin remains highly correlated with bond prices," said Edward Moya, a senior market analyst at OANDA. "The bond market selloff is showing some signs of stability and that could mean the bitcoin pullback is nearing its end."
