šØšØšØ Binanceās CZ says gold is ānot a limited supply asset,ā so it canāt beat Bitcoin
CZ said gold canāt beat Bitcoin because gold isnāt a limited supply asset.
Gold prices dropped 2.6% this week after hitting a record high of $3,500.05 in April.
Strong U.S. job data and easing trade tensions cut demand for safe-haven assets like gold.
Changpeng Zhao, better known as CZ, went to X on Saturday and took a jab at gold. āNot against gold, but itās not a limited supply asset,ā he posted. That one line was enough to piss off gold bugs and draw another line between the crypto crowd and the precious metals faithful.
CZ made it clear why he still bets on Bitcoin: itās capped, and gold isnāt. He didnāt say anything else. He didnāt need to. This came as goldās outstanding rally seemingly comes to a halt.
On Friday, spot gold slid 0.4% to $3,228.50 an ounce, putting it on track for a 2.6% weekly loss. This was after it hit a record high of $3,500.05 on April 22. But by last Thursday, it dropped to the lowest level since April 14. US gold futures still closed up 0.6% at $3,243.30, though that didnāt reverse the trend.
Gold was struggling as the US and China both toned down the trade war talk. Chinaās commerce ministry said the US had shown interest in working things out on tariffs, and that Beijing was open to discussion. The easing tension hurt demand for safe assets. The fear that had driven gold higher was fading.
Daniel Pavilonis, senior market strategist at RJO Futures, said, āGold looks like $3,500 may be a top for a little while,ā especially if more trade deals start showing up and risk appetite comes back. He pointed out that a drop in panic usually means gold cools down. Thatās whatās happening now.
