Odaily News Bitfinex released its latest market research report, pointing out that Bitcoin has shown remarkable resilience during one of the most turbulent periods of macroeconomic-driven uncertainty in recent years. Although Bitcoin prices have fallen 32% from their highs in January, they are still consistent with historical levels of mid-term corrections in previous bull markets and outperform most traditional risk assets.
Bitcoin’s rally, which coincides with gold’s all-time high above $3,300 an ounce, reinforces the growing view that Bitcoin is evolving into a digital macro hedge. Both assets are increasingly viewed as globally neutral stores of value amid deglobalization, trade conflicts, and capital flight from volatile equity markets. Recent price action reinforces this view: Bitcoin has behaved more like gold than stocks since April 2, or “Liberation Day,” showing strong momentum and moving off lows as the broader market continues to struggle with tighter liquidity and policy uncertainty.
