Analysts predict that Bitcoin will surpass gold in the second half of 2025, citing increasing corporate demand and support from the U.S. states.

📌 What do analysts say?
According to analysts led by Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou, “devaluation trade” — when investors turn to gold and Bitcoin for protection against weakening fiat currencies — has turned into a zero-sum game, where Bitcoin is now taking the lead. From mid-February to mid-April, gold rose at the expense of Bitcoin, but in the last three weeks, the opposite trend has been observed.

📊 Current Market Situation
Since April 22, gold has fallen by nearly 8%, while Bitcoin has risen by 18%. Investor flows reflect this change, with capital moving out of gold ETFs and into Bitcoin.

💭 Opinion of Mr. Belferman:
“If even JPMorgan is betting on Bitcoin, maybe it’s time for me to rethink my strategy. Gold is good, but Bitcoin seems to be becoming the new favorite.”
