A significant portion of Bitcoin's recent advance has been linked to the "debasement trade," in which investors gain more exposure to alternative assets due to concerns about weakened purchasing power from traditional currencies, he says. Some investors have interpreted the Treasury's recent push to ease yields could depreciate the U.S. dollar, Massabni says.
