Bitcoin’s (BTC) correlation with the Nasdaq sank to 3% in June, according to data from Kaiko – indicating diverging sentiment between cryptocurrencies and tech stocks.

The price-performance for the leading cryptocurrency in June was between $24,800 and $31,360, opening the month at $27,200.

BlackRock’s Spot Bitcoin ETF Filing on June 15 was a bullish catalyst, reversing the prior downtrend to a new year-to-date high of $31,440 some eight days later.

Since then, Bitcoin has been trading in a narrow band between $29,860 and $31,030 – falling 3% since its YTD high on June 23.

The Bitcoin-Nasdaq correlation has continued to move lower throughout the year, dropping sharply to 3% this week from over 20% in May.
