Bitcoin Dips Set to Trigger Aggressive Purchases During Digital Gold Comparison

The major U.S.-based cryptocurrency exchange platform’s research division, Coinbase Institutional, predicts a tendency of aggressive Bitcoin (BTC) buying amid market downturns. Coinbase draws attention to the importance of gold in the face of geopolitical and economic unease and says that Bitcoin will follow a similar path in the changing financial landscape.

Coinbase Institutional recently attributed the durability of gold to growing fears about inflation and anticipated of rate reduction by the Federal Reserve. Gold has been a preferred asset in the face of growing geopolitical tensions and fears about reflation, thanks to a rise in central bank acquisitions and worldwide uncertainty.

Coinbase claims that the recent significant increase in gold prices is indicative of a focus on inflation forecasts as opposed to expected changes to the Federal Reserve rate. The mood of the market as a whole emphasizes a need for inflation hedges and concerns about inflationary pressures.

Bitcoin’s Role as “Digital Gold”

Coinbase Institutional sees Bitcoin as the “digital gold” of the current period, drawing comparisons between it and gold. As investors’ acceptance of Bitcoin grows, it is expected that stockpiling of the cryptocurrency would increase amid market declines. Coinbase expects strong demand for Bitcoin due to its perceived store-of-value qualities, even in the face of ongoing volatility.

Citing the inflow of cash from spot market Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs), Coinbase is still optimistic about the future of the cryptocurrency. With the network preparing for the next halving event and encouraging market drivers, Coinbase continues to have a favorable prognosis for the success of Bitcoin in the upcoming quarter.
