Market Moves by Omkar Godbole Bitcoin has recovered to $57,000 tracking signs of risk reset in traditional markets.
Buyers made a comeback on early Monday as reports from South Africa stated that Omicron patients seen so far have had “extremely mild symptoms”
“Bitcoin is largely being grouped with other risk assets at the moment,” Matthew Dibb, COO and co-founder of Stack Funds, said. “After Friday’s collapse in equities, we have seen some buying in major coins, but it’s too early to say whether it will continue.”
On Friday, bitcoin and risk assets, in general, tanked after the news of a supposedly vaccine-resistant COVID variant coming out of South Africa raised the specter of economically painful lockdowns. The World Health Organization (WHO) deemed the Omicron variant, as a variant of concern.
However, a little-known cryptocurrency stayed resilient and chalked up a ten-fold rally over the weekend.
OMIC, the native coin of decentralized reserve currency protocol with the same name as the newly detected COVID variant Omicron, picked up a bid near $70 late Friday and rose as high as $711 on Sunday, according to data source crypto.com.
The token’s surge perhaps represents peak irrationality – a case of cryptocurrency rallying just because its parent blockchain coincidentally shares the name with the new COVID variant. Also read: DeFi Protocol Omicron’s Token Jumps 10-Fold After Namesake Covid Variant Emerges
