Bitcoin-gold correlation tops 50% as debt fears return, Grayscale says

Grayscale reports Bitcoin’s correlation with gold has topped 50% as renewed debt fears drive market sentiment. This indicates investors are increasingly treating Bitcoin like gold—as a potential store of value—during periods of macro stress. The key implication is that Bitcoin may become more sensitive to sovereign and corporate debt dynamics and broader risk-off flows, which could boost its safe‑haven appeal but reduce its diversification benefits when gold and other traditional assets move together.
