But the truth is that the rise and fall of Bitcoin is certainly not determined by the state of other nations economy. Bitcoin is independent of all that and I can understand that it's a better explanation to say people are scared of their financial future with the recession and now deciding on rather holding Crypto-currency instead.
It may sound common that the price of Bitcoin is influenced by many factors. including the birth of positive or negative market sentiment, regulations, and others. Referring to what you said above, the price of Bitcoin is not determined by the state of the economy of other countries, but it is not certain that Bitcoin will always perform well during a recession. Btw, this is not a prediction, but I think there is a possibility that BTC will move down to the 28k - 29k area in the near future, maybe in the next 1-2 days.
