  • As global “Bye America” investors ditch US risk, Bitcoin is finally ready to be the macro alternative
    CryptoSlate - 20:35 Feb 01, 2026

Over the past week, that debate has shown up in the dollar. A weaker dollar is rarely a story by itself, but […] The post As global “Bye America” investors ditch US risk, Bitcoin is finally ready to be the macro alternative appeared first on CryptoSlate.

    Bitcoin treasuries are designed to look uncomfortable in drawdowns, because the trade they're running is simple: take a volatile asset, put it on a corporate balance sheet, and finance more of it through capital markets. When Bitcoin drops, the mark-to-market hit is the point, not the punchline. The real question is whether the company can […] The post Bitcoin treasury companies are millions in the red but the strategy doesn’t change even at $78k appeared first on CryptoSlate.
