🚨 Bitcoin Hits $123K — Outpaces Gold in 2025 🚨
Bitcoin just logged its highest-ever weekly close at $119.5K and is up 30% YTD, finally beating gold’s 27% gain.📈 For the first time ever, both $BTC and gold are the top-performing assets in the same year. That’s not just bullish — that’s historic. 🏆
But let’s talk about why this is happening.
👉 A $15K jump in BTC since July 3 followed the U.S. passing a “big beautiful bill.”
👉 The deeper fuel? High interest rates, a sliding dollar (-11% DXY), record U.S. deficit ($316B in May), and geopolitical risk.
This isn’t a regular bull run — it’s a flight to safety. 🛡️
As The Kobeissi Letter calls it: “crisis mode.”
When unproductive assets like gold and Bitcoin lead the pack, it usually means one thing: fear > confidence.
Markets are hedging. Investors are moving out of risk-on zones into assets they trust when the world feels shaky.
💡 BTC is increasingly looking like digital gold — but faster, borderless, and programmable.
Are we watching Bitcoin become the new safe haven? Or are we just at the start of the storm?
