However, without major catalysts, Bitcoin has seen its exchange reserves also drop significantly in the same period.<\/p>\n<p>As such, it is critical that other important on-chain data points, such as increasing transaction volume and short-term exchange outflow spikes supplement the <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a> downtrend of exchange reserves to strengthen the argument for a broader near-term rally.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Treasury_yields_and_equities_market_momentum_are_key\"><\/span>Treasury yields and equities market momentum are key<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>In the foreseeable future, cryptocurrencies would most likely see some correlation with the U.S. Treasury yield and the equities market.<\/p>\n<p>Over the past month, the crypto market saw a high inverse correlation with the 10-year Treasury yield. \u00a0<\/p>\n<figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.cointelegraph.com\/uploads\/2021-03\/9fb671a5-f31f-4f53-bfe8-6c045d3bf33a.png\"><figcaption style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>BTC\/USD vs. 10-year Treasury yield (orange).
