Bitcoin Hits $123,000, Overtakes Gold as 2025’s Top Asset

Digital gold just outshone the real thing. Bitcoin's blistering rally to $123,000 this week cements its status as the asset class of the future—while bullion gathers dust in vaults.

The Flip Heard 'Round Wall Street

For the first time in financial history, a 12-year-old cryptographic protocol holds greater market value than 5,000 years of physical precious metal. Traders are dumping gold ETFs faster than Boomers sell stocks during a correction.

Numbers Don't Lie (But Bankers Do)

The $123K price tag represents a 1,150% climb from Bitcoin's COVID-era lows. Meanwhile, gold's annualized returns couldn't outpace inflation if you strapped rockets to a bullion bar. But hey—at least central banks get to admire their shiny paperweights between rate hikes.

One asset evolves at network speed. The other gets polished by guys named 'Hrothgar' in London vaults. Place your bets.
