The cryptocurrency has been trading between $1.36 and $1.50 over the past month, attempting to break out of the upper boundary on multiple occasions. Last Thursday, the altcoin rallied above this key resistance on the CLARITY Act progress, reaching a two-month high of $1.54.

Wintermute said Bitcoin’s latest rally has failed its first major macro test, arguing that the move was driven more by leverage and short covering than by durable spot demand. In its May 18 market update, the trading firm pointed to hot inflation, rising Treasury yields, ETF outflows and renewed rate-hike pricing as the backdrop behind a sharp reversal across digital assets. “Last week we said we’d find out fast what kind of rally this was.

Wintermute said the inflation shock has become harder for markets to dismiss, noting that the prolonged energy shock is now moving into core inflation and that real wages turned negative for the first time in three years.
