Recently I noticed something interesting in the markets: while gold continues to break historical highs and has already surpassed $5,400, Bitcoin remains quite sideways. Powell and his recent statements seem to be moving the gold price more in Dubai and other markets than in crypto.

The contrast is curious. Usually, when central banks speak, both assets rise together. But this time, gold is taking advantage of the uncertainty to reach new highs, while Bitcoin hasn't fully taken off. Some traders comment that the gold price more directly reflects concerns about inflation and volatility.

What stands out most is that the gold price in Dubai and globally keeps rising nonstop, but Bitcoin appears to be contained within its current range. If Powell continues with the same tone, gold will probably keep gaining ground. We’ll have to see if Bitcoin dares to follow or if this divergence persists a little longer.
