The collapse of FTX and related developments did more to pull up or push down the price of Bitcoin (BTC) throughout Q4, compared to macroeconomic events such as rate hikes, according to research.<\/p>\n

In a \u201cState of Bitcoin Q4 2022\u201d report published on Feb. 10, Messari research analysts Sami Kassab and Chris Collar found that the collapse of the exchange resulted in a 25% decrease in the price of Bitcoin.<\/p>\n

The report highlighted that changes to the federal funds rate had a much smaller effect on the price of Bitcoin, even after 75 and 50 basis point hikes. <\/p>\n

It also pointed out that active wallets increased by 2% compared to the previous quarter as Bitcoin was moved out of centralized exchanges to self-custodial wallets during the period<\/p>\n

A research paper from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York earlier this week came to a similar conclusion.<\/p>\n

The Feb. 8 paper looked at the links between macroeconomic news and the price of Bitcoin, finding that inflation was the only variable to have a significant impact on the price of Bitcoin. <\/p>\n

The paper\u2019s authors \u2014 research analysts Gianluca Benigo and Carlo Rosa \u2014 compiled data from Jan. 2017 to Dec. 2022 looking at the impact of macroeconomic news on various asset classes.<\/p>\n

The study took into account many macroeconomic news categories, including inflation, the real economy, monetary policy news, and forward-looking indicators.<\/p>\n

The authors expressed surprise at their findings, concluding:<\/p>\n

\u201cThe key result is that, unlike other U.S. asset classes, Bitcoin is orthogonal to monetary and macroeconomic news. This disconnect is puzzling as unexpected changes in discount rates should, in principle, affect the price of Bitcoin even when interpreting Bitcoin as a purely speculative asset.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Despite the U.S. Federal Reserve continuing to raise rates at a record pace, Bitcoin has had a stellar start to 2023, increasing by just under a third from $16,557 to $21,888 according to Yahoo Finance.<\/p>\n
