Well-known gold advocate and <a href="https://u.today/will-bitcoin-btc-70000-attempt-fail-massive-xpr-triangle-breakthrough-is-here-ethereum-eth-bullish">Bitcoin</a> critic Peter Schiff recently pointed out that gold has reached yet another record high. However, Schiff claims that because they have their attention on Bitcoin, the majority of investors are still mainly ignorant of this important <a href="https://x.com/PeterSchiff/status/1838054295863791807">factor</a>.
Schiff contends that investors are blind to the way gold has performed and the important signal it is providing — that monetary policy is too loose and inflation is about to spike higher. However, a large portion of the market is now interested in Bitcoin. The price of the cryptocurrency has been falling within a channel despite attempts to break above significant resistance around $70,000. Despite some positive movement recently, the price of Bitcoin is still stuck in a bearish channel.&nbsp;

Without a breakout, the upper resistance holds firm, and <a href="https://u.today/bitcoin-btc-price-prediction-for-september-22">Bitcoin</a> may retrace to important levels at or near $60,000 or even $58,000. Gold keeps moving higher in the meantime. The chart displays a consistent upward trend that is backed by copious buying activity. Gold is proving to be a reliable conventional store of value with its new high of over $2,615, especially as worries about inflation increase.
Investors continue to disagree on the comparison of <a href="https://u.today/300k-per-bitcoin-chart-of-trading-legend-brandt-implies-massive-rally">Bitcoin</a> and gold. In the current economic climate, gold, which has a long history of serving as an inflation hedge, is sending out clear signals. However, Bitcoin, also known as digital gold, has experienced greater volatility even though it has previously shown promise as an inflation hedge.&nbsp;
Peter Schiff quite often reminds everyone in the community that Bitcoin is inferior to gold and should not take so much attention away from it. However, gold is clearly losing to Bitcoin in terms of returns and volatility, which makes it a less risk-on asset and more of a store of value.
