Why is Bitcoin Trading Sideways, While Gold & Silver Are Taking Off?

from The SatsMate Stack · host Paul SatsMate

Hey Satsmate Stackers, It is crazy to see how much gold and silver have been taken off over the past couple of months! Today, I discuss why Bitcoin has been trading sideways over the past couple of months - & my thoughts on why Gold & Silver have been taking off. You don't have to look far to see many moving to risk-off assets to protect themselves. In today's podcast, I discuss the following: You don’t need to look far to see that Bitcoin hasn’t been trading well over the past couple of monthsBitcoin tends to be the first to react when it comes to liquidity entering the system, and usually it moves in degrees of magnitudeWe have seen Silver & Gold be spectacular trades with Gold Flirting with $5000 an Ounce & Silver surpassing $103 an ounceBitcoin for the past 12 months is actually down 16%Biggest reasonsBRICS and foreign nations are starting to move towards neutral reserve money away from TreasuriesWeaponizing the USD was one of the biggest missteps we have taken. People move to what they perceive as a better haven than treasuriesBitcoin has ALWAYS traded risk on. There have been a few cases where it wasn’t correlated, but it has always traded in line with risky tech stocksTrump's backing of bitcoin-related activities is lackluster. He has followed through with some promises, but generally, it has been underwhelmingA lot of fear and uncertainty in the market, many are rotating to the safe trades away from risk (don’t forget bitcoin still has run significantly since Trump won from the $60sGold & Silver taking off can be looked at independently of Bitcoin not doing wellErosion of trust with the U.S. system is at all time highs right nowFear and uncertainty push people towards commoditiesOld school investors, and global demand for Bitcoin still isn’t thereMy view is patience & long term time horizonHave a 3-4 year time horizon, don’t panic buy gold & silver just cause…Don’t sell your bitcoin just causeRemember why you are in these trades to begin withIf you like this, feel free to share it, leave a like, or comment.
