📈 Van de Poppe Says Bitcoin Bear Market May Be Ending Against Gold
Crypto analyst Michaël van de Poppe points to a rarely-seen technical setup on the Bitcoin vs. Gold (BTC/Gold) chart that could signal the end of Bitcoin’s relative bear market. The weekly **RSI for BTC priced in gold has dropped to the lowest level in history, a mark that in past cycles came right before strong multi-year uptrends.
Here’s the gist:
• Bitcoin’s valuation measured against gold has been declining for about 14 months, longer than many expected.
• The extreme RSI low historically marked bear market lows and preceded major rallies in previous cycles.
• Van de Poppe argues that Bitcoin’s Oct 2025 price high vs USD may have been influenced by gold’s rally, not pure BTC strength.
Why it matters: If history repeats, this technical extreme could be a contrarian buying opportunity, suggesting risk assets like Bitcoin may start outperforming again — especially if safe-haven demand for gold cools.
