Following Bitcoin’s (BTC) crash in the wake of growing conflict between Israel and Iran, questions have emerged regarding the asset’s ability to emulate gold and serve as a hedge in an environment dominated by geopolitical disputes.

Spina shared data comparing Bitcoin to gold over the last several years to support this assessment, highlighting a notable disparity in performance.
While Bitcoin surged during the cryptocurrency bull run of 2021, it has since seen a dramatic decline. The data indicated that the Bitcoin-to-gold ratio peaked at 37.53 in 2021, only dropping around 22.60—42% off its peak. Meanwhile, gold has maintained steady growth, rising to above $2,600 per ounce as of October 2024.
