Gold prices have plunged 10% over the past six days, marking a rare occurrence that has happened only ten times in the past 45 years. This sharp decline is attributed to easing geopolitical tensions, a stronger U.S. dollar, and profit-taking following a 60% rise earlier in 2025. In contrast, Bitcoin has shown resilience, posting a 2% gain over the same period. This divergence has fueled discussions about cryptocurrencies potentially replacing gold as a preferred safe-haven asset among investors.
