From gold to Bitcoin: ETFs excel while miners falter post-launch

Since the inception of the first Gold ETF, investors have seen significant shifts in market dynamics. The introduction of Bitcoin ETFs earlier this year similarly sparked discussions about a possible boom in the cryptocurrency sector, akin to gold's bull run after 2004. A fascinating pattern has emerged when comparing traditional gold investments to their digital counterparts: while direct investments in gold (via GLD) surged by 449%, the gold miners' ETFs saw a decline. This same trend is starting to appear in cryptocurrency investments, such as BlackRock's IBIT and the Valkyrie Bitcoin Miners ETF. Could this be an indicator of how digital assets will behave in the future compared to their mining counterparts? Discover the potential long-term impacts in the full analysis.
