Common questions

Why does bitcoin react to Fed meetings?
Bitcoin trades as a liquidity-sensitive risk asset — rate cuts (or the expectation of them) tend to loosen financial conditions broadly, which has historically correlated with bitcoin strength.
Where do ETF flow numbers get published?
Individual issuers report daily creation/redemption activity, typically aggregated and published the following morning by data trackers and our own News coverage.
