Bitcoin or Gold: Which is the Better Investment for Middle Eastern Investors in 2026?

Bitcoin is currently trading near $125,000 while gold hovers around $3,960 per ounce, both reaching historical peaks.

The rise of Bitcoin is attributed to ETF fund flows and increased institutional adoption, while the rise in gold reflects investors' desire for safety amid global economic uncertainty.

As 2026 approaches, Bitcoin offers higher upside opportunities but with greater volatility, while gold remains the reliable refuge for preserving wealth and stability.
