According to Deep Tide TechFlow news on December 23, CoinDesk reported that gold and copper are expected to perform excellently in 2025, rising 70% and 35% respectively, far surpassing other major assets. Gold has broken through $4,450 per ounce to reach a historic high, becoming the preferred safe-haven asset. Bitcoin, as the “digital gold” concept, has failed to convince Wall Street investors, falling 6%, lacking support from sovereign purchases.
The market is showing a polarized trend: on one hand, betting on AI-driven growth ( copper ), while on the other hand, worrying about systemic financial risks ( gold ). The copper-gold ratio has hit a 20-year low, indicating that the global economy is in a “fragile expansion” state. Investors are clearly shifting towards tangible assets, reflecting a decline in trust towards fiat currencies and purely liquidity assets dependent on fiat.
Although the blockchain ecosystem makes regulatory and institutional progress by 2025, most large Layer-1 tokens still close with negative returns or flat, showing a disconnect between network usage and token performance.
