Gold and silver hit new ATH records.
Crypto analysts expect this liquidity to flow into Bitcoin once gold price tops.
Bearish and bullish debate the many possibilities for 2026.
The low-risk asset markets rejoice as the prices of gold and silver go on to hit new ATH prices. In detail, gold has just set an extraordinary new ATH price, taking the value of one gram of 24-karat gold to an exceptionally high price between $140 – $153. As gold hits a new ATH, crypto analysts expect this liquidity to flow into Bitcoin once the prices of gold and silver hit their top prices.
With gold and silver hitting higher ATH prices, there is no doubt that the low-risk asset market is doing very well, but it seems high-risk assets are facing a fall in prices. At the moment, as both gold and silver hit new ATH records, the price of the pioneer crypto asset, Bitcoin (BTC), has fallen below $90,000, while the price of the pioneer altcoin asset, Ethereum (ETH), has fallen below $3,000.
With both leading crypto assets falling and having supposedly lost major support lines, crypto traders are wondering if it is too late to make gains while holding crypto assets. After all, several bearish analysts believe the price of BTC will fall to $70,000 by the second half of 2026. This sudden dip in BTC price has led to retail panic-selling their BTC holdings while BTC whales accumulate a massive amount of BTC at discounted prices.
