Step beyond the headlines and into the heart of the crypto asset sector in our bi-monthly Industry Rollup.

Compare Bitcoin and other leading crypto assets against traditional classes like equities, gold, and bonds.
When Safe Havens Flinch, Is Crypto Ready to Step Up?
Crypto's recovery is real but unconfirmed. The decisive test sits overhead, where the $80–85k zone marks a confluence of the True Market Mean, short-term holder cost basis, and US spot ETF cost basis, with positioning skewed short into the level. Reclaiming it would shift a substantial share of the market back into profit, failure to absorb it would arguably mark the recovery as a bear-market rally.
Commodity Volatility Breaks Correlations; Bitcoin Less Tethered to Macro
Since the Iran conflict began in late February, U.S. and EM equities have re-coupled most visibly, moving back into moderate positive correlation as Bitcoin participated in the broader risk recovery. Commodities moved the other way. GSG fell into deep negative correlation to BTC, reflecting an energy- and supply-shock impulse that Bitcoin did not track.
Capital Flows to Privacy, DeFi Lending, and Memes
Viewed through Bitcoin Suisse's Global Crypto Taxonomy, April's top 100 was led by privacy cryptocurrencies, as Zcash (ZEC) ended the month up by more than 45%. Interestingly, the DeFi sector also held up well, despite the lending market suffering a significant fundamental setback in April following the rsETH exploit.
