Macro Pressure Has Arrived 📉 Last week, BTC held up impressively — closing just -0.65% and outperforming traditional risk assets.

Still, we remain optimistic on Q2 👀 Read the full Bitfinex Alpha analysis 👉 <https://blog.bitfinex.com/bitfinex-alpha/bitfinex-alpha-macro-has-arrived-but-we-remain-positive-on-q2/> What’s your outlook for BTC in this market?
