Bitcoin’s deeply discounted versus AI-stocks, but hawkish Fed risk lingers: Bitwise
Bitcoin’s (BTC) valuation metrics continue to highlight a deep discount even as markets brace for a potentially hawkish Federal Reserve under new chair Kevin Warsh. Analysis from Bitwise Investments said BTC remains in a “deep value” zone after a valuation metric fell below 1.0, a level associated with long-term accumulation periods.
However, investor participation remains subdued, with CryptoQuant’s realized cap growth metric remaining in a bear phase since late October 2025. This points to a steady slowdown in fresh capital entering the BTC network.
At the same time, a growing list of key companies going public raises increased competition for liquidity across the investment market, so the focus shifts to whether BTC attracts new capital amid tighter liquidity conditions.
