CLAIM: Is the Bitcoin Price Following the Gold Chart 188 Days Behind? So, When It Catches Up to Gold, How Much Will the BTC...
A recently shared chart claims that Bitcoin lags gold price movements by approximately 188 days.
According to analysts, this situation is considered a bullish signal for the cryptocurrency market.
The chart, based on LSEG Datastream and Real Vision data, compares Bitcoin and gold rates over the 2024–2026 period. Despite the time difference, Bitcoin's line is above gold's adjusted curve.
Amidst ongoing economic uncertainty, gold has risen 45% since the beginning of 2025, while Bitcoin has gained approximately 20% during the same period. However, analysts argue that the 188-day gap indicates an imminent acceleration in Bitcoin's price action.
This trend is also thought to be linked to the rise in institutional investment in Bitcoin ETFs. Analysts like Real Vision founder Raoul Pal frequently cite such historical correlations.
On the other hand, the correlation between Bitcoin and gold is only 0.09, indicating that Bitcoin still has a similar movement structure to technology stocks.
Considering the image shared by Real Vision, it is claimed that the BTC price may exceed $400,000 in 2026.
