#Gold Shines While Bitcoin Struggles

In 2025, a noticeable split is emerging between traditional and digital assets. Gold has surged over 70%, reaching new all-time highs above $4,400/oz, while Bitcoin has dipped more than 5%, struggling to regain traction near the $90,000 level. This divergence reflects a renewed investor preference for safety over risk.

Gold’s rally is fueled by expectations of future Fed rate cuts, ongoing geopolitical tensions, a weaker U.S. dollar, and strong central bank buying. From a technical perspective, gold remains in a bullish trend, though an RSI above 80 suggests overbought conditions and the potential for short-term pullbacks.

Bitcoin, by contrast, is trading sideways, behaving like a risk asset amid spot ETF outflows and subdued institutional interest. A decisive move above $90,000 is needed to reignite upward momentum, while a drop below the $84,000–$86,000 support zone could trigger a deeper correction.

For now, markets are signaling one thing clearly: safe-haven demand is dominating, with gold taking the lead while crypto awaits its next catalyst.
