Analysis of the reasons for the stronger dollar, rising oil prices, and rising US Treasury yields:
Direct Impact: BTC support near $68,000, resistance between $73,000 and $74,000
In the short term, market participants are watching for support near $68,000 and resistance around $73,000 to $74,000. DACM co-founder Richard Galvin emphasized stronger support in the $60,000+ area, with initial resistance just above $70,000.
At the time of writing, Bitcoin's price remains above $71,000, providing a reference for these levels, but does not imply future direction.

Spot ETF inflows are stabilizing (e.g., IBIT); QCP believes the dollar is defensive
Closely monitor whether net inflows into spot ETFs remain stable or turn positive, including IBIT. Continued stability will enhance liquidity if the DXY continues to strengthen and the market leans defensive.
Oil prices above $110-115 and geopolitics could put pressure on risk assets
If oil prices remain above $110-115, inflationary risks could accelerate again, putting pressure on risk assets through higher yields and a stronger dollar. Geopolitical tensions and supply constraints will exacerbate this impact.
