Bitcoin’s first-quarter slump capped an unusual run: nearly six months of underperformance against U.S. equities, a stretch that has no precedent.“That’s never happened,” said Mark Connors, founder of Risk Dimensions, pointing to data showing bitcoin lagging stocks consistently since early October. The trend has raised fresh questions about whether the asset is behaving more like a risk trade than a hedge.Bitcoin fell roughly 22% in the first quarter of 2026, following a 25% decline during the final three months of 2025. Over a similar period, the S&P 500 declined far less, leaving a wide performance gap. Connors said the duration…

The first is the 13-week BTC-S&P correlation, which has recently turned negative and stayed…

America holds roughly 38% of global Bitcoin mining capacity, and the specialized hardware powering that position comes overwhelmingly from Chinese manufacturers. Senators Bill Cassidy and Cynthia Lummis introduced the Mined in America Act on Mar. 30 to address that gap, proposing certification, domestic manufacturing support, and the codification of President Donald Trump’s Strategic Bitcoin Reserve to begin unwinding a foreign hardware dependence they frame as a national industrial vulnerability. Cassidy’s office cites 97% of mining hardware coming from China. Hashrate Index’s January 2026 update places US Bitcoin mining capacity at roughly 37%-38% of the global total, at around 400 exahashes…
