Recently, geopolitical tensions have escalated, and the precious metals market has responded accordingly—both gold and silver are hitting new all-time highs. In theory, in such a risk environment, cryptocurrencies as digital safe-haven assets should also rise, but the actual market performance has not been so ideal.



This is quite interesting. The market often says that Bitcoin is digital gold and that crypto assets are safe-haven assets, but why do they not surge as strongly in the face of real geopolitical conflicts? Is it because market sentiment has not fully accepted this view, or is this round of safe-haven sentiment more inclined towards traditional assets?

From the current market situation, Bitcoin is around 91,000+, with some traders thinking of continuing to bullishly target 95,000, while risk control is set at the 90,000 level. Ethereum has broken through the 3,150 resistance level and started to rebound, with a target of 3,350 and a support at 3,100. Solana is hovering around 140, with resistance above at 150 and support below at 130.

The future direction still depends on the actual development of this risk event and the market’s risk appetite adjustment.

Gold is rising happily, while the crypto world is still hesitating. Why is the gap so big... It seems digital gold isn't really a thing after all.

Well, to put it simply, the market still doesn't truly see BTC as a safe haven. When real risk hits, it exposes itself. The term "digital gold" is just for listening; don't take it too seriously. That's how Bitcoin is—stuck at 9.1k... Once the risk event passes, the market immediately turns around. We'll see who ends up awkwardly high. It feels like safe-haven sentiment is enough with traditional assets; in crypto, it's still more speculative. ETH broke below 3150, rebounded to 3350? Support at 3100... These numbers sound nice, but in reality, when it moves, it will likely catch people off guard. SOL hovers around 140, repeatedly chopping within a thirty-point range—this trading space is really useless. Honestly, with geopolitical risks heating up and gold rising so much, BTC hasn't kept up... That itself shows the problem—market acceptance is still far from enough.

Laughing out loud, even digital gold, and at critical moments, it drops the ball. Traditional finance directly outperforms in this round.

Digital gold is still a joke; traditional assets are more reliable in critical moments.

Gold hits a new high again, while the crypto world is still sleeping. Why is the gap so huge?
