One of the best measures for gauging demand for cryptocurrencies suggests that some Chinese investors are shifting away from digital assets and back to the nation’s surging stock market.

Following China's historic stimulus rally, Yale University senior fellow Stephen Roach, says Beijing authorities need to beware of a few risks.

Tether’s USDT stablecoin, the world’s most used cryptocurrency, has been trading at a discount at times relative to the dollar since the end of September, according to Dessislava Aubert, senior research analyst at blockchain data firm Kaiko. The emergence of the discount coincided with a series of easing measures by China’s central bank designed to stem a worsening economic outlook that sent stock prices soaring.

The absence of USDT/Chinese yuan trading pairs on crypto exchanges because of the ban has made the dollar the de facto barometer for measuring activity, Kaiko’s Aubert said. The slight discount suggest more demand for dollars and selling of Tethers. The demand isn’t just being driven by retail investors, according to Laura Vidiella del Blanco, the New York-based head of business development and strategy at crypto hedge fund MNNC Group. Some of the firm’s institutional investors are shifting allocations to Chinese stocks.
