Gold has fallen more than 20 percent from its all time high near 5,600 dollars, with its latest decline marking the weakest weekly performance since 2011. At the same time, Bitcoin has remained relatively stable above 71,000 dollars, highlighting an unusual divergence between the two assets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to analyst Wise Crypto, Bitcoin\u2019s correlation with gold has declined to 0.9, its lowest level in three years. Historically, similar readings have appeared close to major Bitcoin lows, suggesting the possibility that the asset may be entering a recovery phase.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Breakdown in Correlation Signals Potential Shift<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Data shared by Wise Crypto on X on March 24 shows Bitcoin stabilizing while gold continues to weaken. The Bitcoin to gold ratio has dropped by around 70 percent from its previous peak. Looking at past cycles, the analyst noted that similar conditions often emerged when Bitcoin stopped declining and began to recover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There has also been increased accumulation by large holders, reinforcing the view that major investors are positioning themselves during the current price range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The analyst also pointed to broader macroeconomic and geopolitical developments as key factors supporting Bitcoin\u2019s resilience compared to traditional assets. They suggested that this combination of factors strengthens the argument that Bitcoin may have already reached its bottom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Earlier market activity supports this perspective. Following the start of tensions between the United States and Iran on February 28, Bitcoin rose by about 7 percent, while Gold declined by 2 percent and the Nasdaq 100 saw a slight drop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This relative strength came despite sharp intraday volatility driven by breaking news. For example, Bitcoin recently climbed to around 71,500 dollars after Donald Trump commented on a possible pause in hostilities between the United States and Iran. However, Iran quickly rejected the claim, pushing Bitcoin back toward 70,000 dollars and contributing to more than 800 million dollars in liquidations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, gold continued to decline, falling nearly 10 percent over the past week and recording its worst performance since September 2011. The drop has now pushed it firmly into bear market territory, with losses exceeding 20 percent from its January peak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wise Crypto noted that if historical patterns repeat, Bitcoin could be preparing to outperform gold in the next phase of the market cycle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Short Term Selling Pressure Begins to Ease<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

At the time of writing, Bitcoin was trading around 71,000 dollars, reflecting a gain of more than 3 percent over the past 24 hours. Despite this, it remains down about 5 percent over the past week. However, a roughly 4 percent increase over the past month suggests that the asset may be consolidating rather than continuing in a clear downward trend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to Amr Taha, short term selling pressure on Binance has started to ease. The seven day standard deviation of short term holder realized profit and loss has dropped to 255, a level previously observed before Bitcoin experienced rebounds ranging from 10 percent to 14 percent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A similar pattern was seen in late February, when Bitcoin moved from around 66,000 dollars to above 75,000 dollars shortly afterward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This decline in volatility indicates that rapid selling by short term traders is slowing. Although losses may still outweigh gains in current flows, the overall pressure appears to be becoming more stable. In past market conditions, such stabilization has often aligned with more consistent price behavior and the early stages of recovery.#crypto#cryptonews https:\/\/coinsignals.net<\/a> https:\/\/t.me\/coinsignalpublic<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
