Bitcoin vs gold: let's figure out who is stronger

Bitcoin is currently trading around $112,471, but gold has broken a new record — the price has exceeded $4,200 per ounce amid geopolitical tensions and expectations of rate cuts.

What the correlation and the economy say:
✅ The correlation between BTC and gold is close to 0.85, which almost reaches a historical maximum (0.9).
✅ Gold is updating records, and Bitcoin is holding below its peak — now 12% below the August high.
✅ The “digital gold” trend remains relevant: demand for protective assets are not lost.

Why is Bitcoin not yet a complete replacement for gold?
🤩 Behavior in a crisis. During periods of stress, BTC often falls along with stocks, while gold often rises.
🤩 Volatility. Bitcoin’s jumps reach tens of percent over short periods, while gold’s are more stable.
🤩 Scale and liquidity. Gold’s market capitalization is significantly larger and its market depth is greater.

Now Bitcoin is getting closer to gold in perception and behavior. But for now it is more of a technological asset with the characteristics of a “safe haven”, rather than a full-fledged reserve of value. To become the “new gold”, it will have to deepen its independence from stock markets, reduce volatility and prove its stability in crises.
