March 10 — Bitfinex said in a report that Bitcoin’s $60k–$64k support range held up unexpectedly despite two weeks of geopolitical escalation after Iran’s “Black Saturday” and a disappointing U.S. nonfarm payrolls (NFP) report showing just 92,000 new jobs added. Since then, global oil prices have surged sharply — a move that could impact future Consumer Price Index (CPI) readings, as energy accounts for ~9% of the final CPI calculation. These inflationary pressures suggest all risk assets may face headwinds. For Bitcoin, however, two key forces are at play: 1. Bitcoin’s volatility is more frequent and sharp than other risk assets.

Many Hong Kong-based family offices plan to boost their investments in private equity and digital assets over the next three years, Bloomberg reported on March 10. On Tuesday, the Hong Kong Institute for Monetary and Financial Research (HKIMR) noted in a report that wealthy families’ interest in these assets—including private credit and venture capital—is expected to “rise significantly.” Hong Kong has been actively encouraging more high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs) and their families to base their investments locally, with the goal of becoming a bridge between the mainland and global markets.
