According to BlockBeats news, on April 21, Bitfinex released its latest market research report indicating that in one of the most turbulent periods driven by macroeconomic uncertainty in recent years, Bitcoin has shown significant resilience. Although Bitcoin prices have dropped 32% from the January peak, they remain consistent with historical levels of mid-cycle corrections in previous bull markets and have outperformed most traditional risk assets.
Gold prices have previously broken through $3,300 per ounce, setting a new historical high. This recent Bitcoin rebound coinciding with the rise in gold prices further reinforces the growing view that Bitcoin is evolving into a digital macro hedge tool. Against the backdrop of de-globalization, trade conflicts, and capital fleeing turbulent stock markets, these two assets are increasingly seen as global neutral stores of value. Recent price trends further support this view: since April 2 (the 'Liberation Day'), Bitcoin's performance has resembled that of gold rather than stocks, showing strong rebound momentum and breaking away from lows amid tightening liquidity and policy uncertainty in the overall market.
