I just read that the CEO of XBTO is saying something interesting about 2026: gold is rising strongly while Bitcoin remains quite calm. It’s not what many people expected, honestly.

I find his perspective intriguing because in leveraged selling trading, when you see this kind of divergence between traditional assets and crypto, it usually means there’s something else happening in the market. Gold rising while Bitcoin stays still suggests that institutional investors might be being more cautious with their leveraged crypto positions.

I think what the CEO is pointing out is that not all alternative assets move the same way in 2026. Gold has its own dynamics, and Bitcoin doesn’t necessarily follow the same pattern. Especially in a context where leveraged sales could be riskier if the market becomes volatile.

I don’t know, do you think Bitcoin will stay calm all year or is this just a temporary pause? Because if leveraged sales start to liquidate, the story could change quickly.
