Argo Blockchain (LON: ARB) share price has remained unfazed by the recent BTC price action. The stock of the publicly listed Bitcoin miner started the year strong and surged above $21. This was due to the soaring BTC price at the start of 2023. However, Argo Blockchain stock price has been showing a very weak correlation to Bitcoin for the past few weeks.
Cryptocurrencies are depicting an across-the-board sell-off on Wednesday. Bitcoin, the biggest cryptocurrency by market cap, fell by 3.58% during today’s trading session. Nevertheless, Argo Blockchain shares showed relative strength and were down only 1.69%.
