Bigger Pic: Gold and Bitcoin Face a Fresh Safe Haven Test After the Iran Ceasefire

Markets are behaving in ways that are challenging the old playbook. Even after President Trump agreed to a two week ceasefire with Iran, gold is climbing instead of easing, while Bitcoin is showing surprising resilience under pressure. Mark Wong, Head of Trading at Independent Reserve, unpacks whether the definition of a safe haven is being rewritten, what shifting correlations mean for portfolio strategy, why institutional conviction in Bitcoin remains strong, and whether stablecoins may be the real utility play in crypto. He also examines whether quantum computing is becoming a credible risk for Bitcoin and the key macro signals investors should be watching as markets head deeper into Q2.
