Золото обходит биткоин: Металлы демонстрируют невероятный рост на фоне падения крипторынка English translation: Headline: Gold Surpasses Bitcoin: Metals Show Incredible Growth Amidst Cryptocurrency Market Decline

The first cryptocurrency has entered the «red zone,» while gold has gained 4.4% in just one day. The market valuation of the precious metal has increased by $1.5 trillion—an amount comparable to the entire market capitalization of Bitcoin.

The price of a troy ounce has reached an all-time high of over $5,500, and the total market value of gold has reached $38 trillion.

Silver has also seen an increase, with its price rising by approximately 22% in the past week. Its market capitalization stands at $6.6 trillion.

The recent rally in precious metals is often attributed to risk hedging against the depreciation of fiat currencies. In this context, Bitcoin appears weak, calling into question the narrative of it being a «digital safe haven.» Prices have not recovered since the crash at the beginning of October, which triggered liquidations totaling $19 billion.

The lag is evident over the longer term as well: over the past five years, gold has increased by about 185%, outperforming Bitcoin’s growth of approximately 164%.

Despite this, major players remain optimistic. A survey by Coinbase revealed that 71% of institutional investors consider Bitcoin undervalued within the range of $85,000 to $95,000.

Around 80% of respondents are willing to hold or increase their positions if the market declines by another 10%.

Sentiments within the two sectors are strikingly different. The cryptocurrency fear and greed index stands at 26 («fear»).

In contrast, a similar indicator for gold from JM Bullion has reached 99 points, indicating «extreme greed.»

It is worth noting that in January, precious metals surpassed cryptocurrencies in popularity on social media.
