Main Idea
Economist Henrik Zeberg argues that Bitcoin is not a unique safe haven but a highly risk-prone asset, closely correlated with the Nasdaq, and warns of a potential 'Tech Bubble 2' that could impact both.

5. Bitcoin's price was trading at $116,622, showing a 4% weekly increase at the time of the report.
