Gold is a safe haven amidst macro uncertainty in 2026 (geopolitics, US deficit, de-dollarization), while Bitcoin is more reliant on liquidity recovery and institutional adoption.
Many analysts view this as a temporary capital rotation; gold is dominating now, but BTC could rebound sharply if risk sentiment improves.
Diversifying into both remains a wise strategy for a long-term portfolio, as both play different roles in this era of uncertainty. Monitor the BTC/Gold ratio (currently ~13–14) and news from the Fed/geopolitics for reversal signals.
