Corrections don't seem likely, unless we see expectations turn toward a longer than expected period of high interest rates due to something like inflation surging again. An interest rate lowering cycle (aka "looser" or "accommodative" monetary policy) increases liquidity, and the nature of extra money seeking to generate a return effectively works to prop up risk assets. Lower interest rates also increase any company's ability to either pay down debt or take on new relatively low cost debt to finance growth/expansion, further boosting the fundamental backdrop for equity shares.

Same reason as above. If money is flowing freely, it seeks out opportunities to generate a return (whereas if liquidity is tight and debt expensive, any available liquidity is more likely to be used to pay down high interest debt without as much leftover to invest/bid up prices elsewhere).
Risk assets like crypto benefit generally when there is excess liquidity in the system, but there is a secondary relationship with bitcoin specifically, since it is considered "ultrasound" money that is not subject to government/central bank manipulation or runaway inflation, and thus when liquidity floods the global financial landscape, this tends to result in currency devaluation and inflationary pressure, as all that extra money begins to bid up prices of nearly everything in the marketplace from homes to stocks to eggs at the grocery store and most things in between. Bitcoin is specifically designed to be insulated from devaluation due to supply inflation.
