ملخص

A study by Mercado Bitcoin found that Bitcoin tends to outperform gold and stocks in 60-day windows following global economic or geopolitical shocks, indicating potential for Bitcoin as a safe-haven asset. This trend suggests that investors may increasingly turn to Bitcoin during times of uncertainty. The study's findings have implications for portfolio diversification and risk management.

In the event of global shocks, Bitcoin (BTC) may experience relatively stronger price gains compared to traditional safe-haven assets like gold (XAU) and the S&P 500 (SPY), potentially leading to increased demand and capital flows into the cryptocurrency. This could result in a positive price reflection for BTC, while possibly pressuring gold and equities.
