COINOTAG News (Aug 31), citing CoinDesk, quoted André Dragosch, European Research Director at Bitwise Asset Management, asserting that when equities decline gold remains the most effective hedge, while Bitcoin tends to exhibit greater resilience when the U.S. bond market is under pressure.
Historical price behavior and industry studies support this differentiation: during risk-off episodes gold typically appreciates, whereas Bitcoin has often outperformed amid Treasury sell-offs and rising yields, affecting correlation patterns and informing tactical asset allocation.
The report also cited performance dispersion through 2025, with gold up more than 30% versus approximately 16.46% for Bitcoin, underscoring their distinct roles for investors navigating volatility, yield shifts and macroeconomic developments.
