#密码资产动态追踪 Can gold and Bitcoin really be equated? Not quite. There is an iron law of capital flow hidden behind this.



Looking back at the previous bull market, it’s clear: gold led the rise, then entered a plateau, while Bitcoin surged by 400% within this time window. It may seem like a coincidence, but it’s actually an inevitable choice driven by capital pursuit.

The typical path of capital migration is as follows:

**Stage One: Seeking Certainty**
When liquidity begins to be released, institutions and large investors first rush into traditional safe-haven assets—gold being the representative. Why? Because it has historical consensus, liquidity, and is relatively safe and stable.

**Stage Two: Liquidity Overflow and Searching for an Exit**
Once gold prices stabilize and the upside is limited, accumulated funds start to become restless. At this point, attention shifts to assets with greater elasticity and stronger narratives. Crypto assets, due to their volatility and imagination potential, naturally become the new target for this wave of capital.

**Stage Three: Ultimate Release of Incremental Funds**
Frankly, this is not some mysterious phenomenon, but the inevitable flow of funds after monetary over-issuance. When there’s too much money, it must find a place to go—either piling into certain assets or rushing into the highest-risk, highest-return potential areas.

The historical pattern is clear: gold is usually the first stop for liquidity entering the market, while Bitcoin often becomes the final destination of this large capital migration. When the next narrative for gold starts again, are you ready with your strategy?

Gold is just a cover, the real feast is here in BTC --- The rotation of funds is spot on; the key is to hit the right rhythm and avoid becoming the last bagholder --- Once gold starts to rise, I’ll be ready to deploy altcoins; this pattern is too obvious --- But on the other hand, is liquidity really still being released? It doesn’t seem so optimistic --- Next? I bet on the Solana ecosystem; the narrative hasn’t been played out yet --- It’s the same old story of fund rotation; it feels like every bull market hears this, but it does make sense... --- The golden plateau is a signal to enter BTC, remember this!

Gold should be bought when it starts to rise; those who can't catch the Bitcoin train are just slow on the draw. --- Damn, the logic sounds reasonable, but who can precisely time the moment when funds overflow? --- Honestly, it's still a game of chance. Enter early and get trapped, enter late and miss out—no one should pretend they can perfectly time their position. --- This tactic has worked in the first two rounds, but after so many years of market changes, can it still be used? That's overanalyzing a bit. --- Waiting for gold to stabilize before jumping into Bitcoin? I'm afraid by then I’ll have already been cut three or five times. --- Talking about capital rotation is easy, but in practice, emotions and fear are the biggest enemies. --- Who will benefit in the next cycle? I bet on the small coins that have been neglected the longest; it’s not the targets we want to get. --- This kind of analysis is discussed every round, but those who really make big money never reveal their moves in advance.

Gold staying flat while Bitcoin surges 400%—I've had my eye on this for a while. Honestly, it’s just that funds are tired of gold. Wait, can this logic be replicated? It feels like it’s always different each time. What will the next round be? I’m betting on a certain wild coin in the Solana ecosystem, purely out of spite.

Gold is just the appetizer; the real feast is still to come. --- Once gold stabilizes, it's time for us to get in. This logic indeed stands up to scrutiny. --- According to this logic, what should be the next move? Solana? Or a certain blockchain turning around? --- The iron law of capital flow is like this: from stability to frenzy, a spiral upward. We need to seize the right timing. --- That's a valid point, but the problem is most people are trying to make quick money. Few can actually wait until the capital overflows. --- I think the next one will be a certain Layer 2 network. It hasn't really taken off yet. --- Gold has been rising for so long with little meaning, but Bitcoin still has imagination—that's the difference. --- Capital pursuit of profit is fine, but the key is to lay in wait early. If you act when gold rises, it will be too late. --- If this theory holds, we should be in the gold phase now, so we need to increase our positions. --- Anyway, just wait for the signal. When gold cools off, that's our opportunity.

Gold is the appetizer, Bitcoin is the main course, and that logic is brilliant. When gold rises, I’ll go all in on BTC directly, no more entanglement. I’ve heard the story of capital rotation a hundred times, but the key is whether you can catch the rhythm. What’s the next move after this wave? Honestly, I’m a bit confused; maybe we still have to see the market’s mood. Will history repeat itself? I bet it will, but I’m not good at timing, haha. Gold has been rising for so long, why hasn’t it been our turn yet? It’s driving me crazy. Capital pursuit of profit is natural; the key is to keep up with the rhythm and not fall behind. No matter how eloquently you put it, it’s still a game of funds. Living through the next bull market is the real victory.

A beautiful theory of capital rotation, but don't forget... history never repeats exactly, only the rhymes are similar.

Gold rising should trigger Bitcoin to surge, I agree with this logic --- Basically, institutions first buy gold then push the coins, the strategy is very clear --- How long can this wave of gold sustain? It doesn't seem to last very long --- The flow of funds shows that this logic is indeed well understood, what will be the next move --- It sounds reasonable, but actual operation still depends on the market, don't believe it completely --- So now hoarding gold is waiting for the opportunity in the crypto circle after gold breaks out? --- If this wave really supports gold, then it's time to get on board --- Why does it feel like every time is a hindsight analysis, can it really be fully copied when the real thing comes? --- The idea of capital rotation works well in a bull market, what about in a bear market? --- What is the signal that gold is starting? That’s even more critical
