In April 2025, the global economy experienced severe turbulence under multiple pressures: U.S. tariffs on China soared to 145%, the European Central Bank unexpectedly cut interest rates to address recession risks, gold prices broke through a historic high of $3,390 per ounce, while Bitcoin (BTC) was poised to surge in the range of $77,500 to $88,000. This seemingly contradictory phenomenon of "gold and Bitcoin strengthening simultaneously" is, in fact, a concentrated response from the market to the erosion of the dollar's credit system, debt crises, and geopolitical risks.
Historical data shows that after gold reaches a new high, Bitcoin often breaks through its previous high within 100 to 150 days, forming a "lagging breakout effect." Will this pattern repeat in 2025? On-chain data and market behavior analysis from Gate.io, a leading global crypto trading platform, reveal key opportunities for investors in this new cycle.
The surge in gold triggers a new upward cycle for Bitcoin: Historical patterns and current validation
- The Divergence and Convergence of Safe-Haven Logic between Gold and Bitcoin
As a traditional safe-haven asset, the surge in gold prices reflects deep market concerns over the collapse of the dollar's credit. The U.S. faces over $36 trillion in debt pressure, inflation expectations driven by tariffs, and uncertainty in Federal Reserve policies, all contributing to gold breaking historical highs. Meanwhile, Bitcoin's narrative as "digital gold" attracts institutional funds due to its decentralized nature and anti-inflation properties—by April 21, the total net asset value of Bitcoin ETFs had reached $96.9 billion.
Historical cases show a "time-lag correlation" between gold and Bitcoin:
- Macroeconomic Variables: Policy Divergence and Liquidity Reconstruction
The divergence in monetary policy between the Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank (e.g., Europe cutting rates to 2.25%) has intensified market volatility, while Bitcoin's halving effect (April 2024) is expected to release bullish momentum in the next 12 to 18 months.
On-chain data from Gate.io indicates that the BTC balance on exchanges has dropped to its lowest level since 2018, suggesting a strengthening trend of institutional hoarding, but low retail participation may trigger a liquidity trap.
