Is Bitcoin's legendary 4-year cycle really dead? Not so fast.
Look at how Bitcoin's valuation stacks up against gold—it's now sitting at levels we haven't seen since November 2023. Meanwhile, gold has been on an absolute tear. Pretty sobering if you're bullish on BTC.
But here's the thing worth pondering: every time gold makes new highs, Bitcoin tends to follow suit. That correlation isn't random. So rather than viewing this as a bearish divergence, consider it a setup. The higher gold climbs, the more likely Bitcoin catches up to close that valuation gap.
The narrative isn't broken—it might just be in hibernation.

When gold rises, the coins follow. This logic sounds a bit...虚 (虚假, false) now. With gold so strong, can it really pull BTC up?

When gold rises, I just wait for BTC to go up. Anyway, history has always played out this way. If you don't believe it, just watch.

When gold rises, BTC follows suit. We've seen this trick before... But on the other hand, hibernation is indeed more reliable than death.

It should be pointed out that the argument of "gold leading Bitcoin" actually refutes the author's own logic. According to on-chain data, the correlation between Bitcoin and gold has decoupled since 2023. Can't you understand this?

Gold rises, BTC follows. Is this pattern real? It feels like it's always the same excuse...

When gold rises, BTC has to follow, I really agree with this logic... But it's still in hibernation mode for now, let's wait and see.

Gold has been surging wildly, while BTC is still sleeping... Is this really different this time? I'm not sure.

Is the golden cross coming? But it depends on how far gold can rise this wave; the nature of BTC's copycat can't be changed.
