Why doesn’t Bitcoin act like gold if it’s supposed to be "digital gold"?
Every time markets crash, gold holds steady or even rises… while Bitcoin takes a dive.
So is the “digital gold” idea wrong, or are we just too early to see it play out?

In this video, I explain why Bitcoin doesn’t behave like gold (yet), what that reveals about its monetization phase, and how it’s following the same path gold once did on its way to becoming a trusted global store of value.
