Bitcoin is undermining the safe-haven appeal of gold and bonds

Mars Finance, April 12th, according to CoinDesk, as Bitcoin is increasingly incorporated into institutional investment portfolios, the market position of traditional safe-haven assets like gold and bonds is facing challenges. Data shows that global gold ETF capital outflows reached $8.9 billion in the first quarter of 2025, while Bitcoin spot ETF net inflows were $12.6 billion during the same period. Analysts point out that against the backdrop of expected Federal Reserve interest rate cuts and geopolitical conflicts, Bitcoin's high liquidity and inflation-resistant characteristics have made it a new-generation safe-haven option. The 10-year U.S. Treasury bond yield has risen to 4.5%, further weakening the attractiveness of fixed-income assets.
