Bitcoin Gold Correlation Hits 6-Year High Amid Nasdaq Decline

Bitcoin's correlation with gold has reached its highest level since the pandemic at +0.50, according to recent analysis from Bitwise Asset Management and Bloomberg data.

This trend suggests that investors are increasingly viewing Bitcoin as a hedge against currency debasement, similar to gold.

The correlation between Bitcoin and the Nasdaq 100 has declined to approximately +0.30, marking its lowest point in a year, indicating a shift towards traditional safe-haven assets like gold.

This change is attributed to the U.S. Treasury's recent decision to increase its long-dated Treasury buyback limit, which has reinforced Bitcoin's role as a hedge.
