Bitcoin is the world's first decentralized cryptocurrency, created in 2009 by the pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto. It enables peer-to-peer electronic cash transactions without intermediaries like banks or governments, operating on a blockchain secured by Proof of Work mining and the SHA-256 cryptographic algorithm.   With a fixed supply cap of 21 million coins and programmatic halvings every four years that reduce miner rewards, Bitcoin is designed as a deflationary digital asset often called "digital gold." Its value stems from solving the double-spending problem without trusted intermediaries, creating the first truly scarce digital asset with censorship resistance and permissionless access that no government, corporation, or individual can control.  Bitcoin operates as a decentralized peer-to-peer network where transactions are recorded on a public ledger called the blockchain, distributed across thousands of computers globally. Transactions are grouped into blocks added approximately every 10 minutes through mining, where specialized computers compete to solve complex mathematical puzzles.   Bitcoin has achieved mainstream adoption through multiple vectors. The January 2024 SEC approval of 11 spot Bitcoin ETFs opened Bitcoin investment to traditional finance participants, and corporations like Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) are using Bitcoin as a treasury reserve asset to protect against currency debasement, offering MSTR holders amplified exposure to Bitcoin.   The Bitcoin ecosystem continues to evolve with innovations like Ordinals, which emerged in January 2023 to enable NFT-like functionality directly on Bitcoin, and BRC-20 tokens, an experimental standard for creating fungible tokens using Ordinal inscriptions. BTCFi (Bitcoin Finance) represents emerging financial applications extending beyond Bitcoin's traditional role, with protocols like Babylon allowing Bitcoin holders to stake BTC to secure Proof of Stake chains.

The bank has maintained its downside case at $3,700 per ounce, the report read.UBS said that the key macro drivers, including further Federal Reserve rate cuts, lower real yields, and geopolitical tension, should continue to support demand. The analysts also highlight growing political noise ahead of the U.S. midterm elections, which could spur additional safe-haven buying.They expect prices to consolidate near $4,300 following political events in late 2026, but see scope to reach the new $4,900 upside case if global political and financial risks intensify.UBS’s view echoes recent bullish commentary from Goldman Sachs, which also sees gold hitting $4,900 by the end of 2026 with further upside if investors continue diversifying their portfolios.<h2 class="st-heading-2">How Have The ETFs Performed?</h2>Since the start of the year, SPDR Gold Shares ETF (GLD) has gained 53.5%, iShares Gold Trust (IAU) and VanEck Merk Gold Trust (OUNZ) have both climbed 53.7%, while&nbsp;abrdn&nbsp;Physical Gold Shares ETF (SGOL) and Goldman Sachs Physical Gold ETF Trust (AAAU) have risen 53.8%.<figure class="image"><a class="st-link-external" href="https://www.datawrapper.de/_/CgYnc/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow"><img style="aspect-ratio:1240/630;" src="https://news.stocktwits-cdn.com/Cg_Ync_gold_etfs_gains_in_2025_png_455c3757e5.webp" alt="CgYnc-gold-etfs-gains-in-2025-.png" width="1240" height="630"></a><figcaption>Gold ETFs Gains in 2025</figcaption></figure>&nbsp;Read also:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/dow-futures-rise-nvidia-earnings-beat/cLPAWVDRE9A">Dow Futures Rise As Investors Cheer Nvidia’s Earnings Beat: NVDA, AMD, GOOGL, WMT Among Stocks To Watch</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

Gold prices were headed for their best monthly gain in 16 years on growing concerns over a U.S. government shutdown and optimism surrounding a potential rate cut by the U.S. Federal Reserve.Spot gold prices rose 1% to $3,871.72 per ounce, another fresh record. Retail sentiment on Stocktwits about <a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/GLD">SPDR Gold Shares ETF</a> (GLD) was in the ‘bullish’ territory at the time of writing.Gold’s rally this week has been driven by growing concerns that the U.S. government will shut down by Wednesday unless Congress approves a temporary funding bill. The yellow metal has gained over 12% this month, on track for the most significant gains since November 2009."I think we're headed to a shutdown because the Democrats won't do the right thing," Vice President JD Vance told reporters after a meeting at the White House with senior members of Congress. The Democrats are pushing to keep healthcare subsidies for low and middle-income households in the stopgap funding measure.“While gold appears overbought, the supportive backdrop is likely to limit any correction,” IG Bank analyst Tony Sycamore said, noting the importance of increased safe-haven demand driven by rising geopolitical tensions in Europe, concerns over the Fed’s independence, and robust buying from central banks and private investors.The shutdown could also delay the crucial jobs data due later this week. Another weak employment report could bolster the chances of more rate cuts by the Federal Reserve, which is positive for gold, a commodity denominated in dollars and therefore shares an inverse relationship with the greenback.According to CME Group’s FedWatch tool, traders have priced in a 25-basis-point cut in benchmark interest rates in the Federal Reserve’s next policymaker meeting.“We’re in the early stages of a monetary reset as central banks move off the dollar standard and back to gold. This shift will end U.S. dollar hegemony, raising our interest rates and consumer prices while lowering our standard of living,” economist and famous gold bull Peter Schiff said on X.Also See: <a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/cryptocurrency/bitcoin-ethereum-gain-amid-strong-etf-inflows-despite-us-shutdown-threat/chDDRxNR3Be">Bitcoin, Ethereum Gain Amid Strong ETF Inflows Despite US Shutdown Threat</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

An analyst said that while gold appears overbought, the supportive backdrop is likely to limit any correction.

President Donald Trump on Monday dismissed speculation that gold would face tariffs, after the chatter helped push gold futures to a record high last week.“Gold will not be tariffed,” Trump wrote in a <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/115011325631302905">post</a> on Truth Social.

Trump Announces ‘Gold Will Not Be Tariffed’ – Bullion Prices Remain Down

The President said in a post on Truth Social that the precious metal will not be subjected to tariffs.

The White House is reportedly planning to issue an executive order to clear up any confusion around tariffs on gold bars after futures linked to the precious metal hit a record high on Friday.“The White House intends to issue an executive order in the near future clarifying misinformation about the tariffing of gold bars and other specialty products,” a White House official&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.ft.com/content/c2868087-9951-4f04-818f-5082437f603a">told</a> the Financial Times.The update comes after the publication cited&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.ft.com/content/78be1315-608d-43c6-b8e7-80b9e18c5ce7">documents</a> on Thursday from the Customs and Border Protection agency, which said&nbsp;one-kilo and 100-ounce gold bars should be classified under a customs code subject to levies.

Gold futures were trading 0.3% higher at the time of writing, at around $3,463. Spot&nbsp;<a href="http://stocktwits.com/symbol/XAUUSD">gold prices</a>, on the other hand, edged 0.01% lower in afternoon trade.The&nbsp;<a href="http://stocktwits.com/symbol/GLD">SPDR Gold Trust</a> (GLD) fell 0.15% while retail sentiment on Stocktwits remained in ‘bullish’ territory over the past day.&nbsp;The decision to classify gold bars as subject to tariffs was a surprise to most market watchers, who had expected that gold bars would be exempt from President Donald Trump’s newly announced tariffs, according to the report. When Trump’s “Liberation Day” tariffs were initially announced, several commodities were exempt, including a bullion category widely believed to cover large gold bars.Gold has been rallying this year, up nearly 30% so far. The decline of the U.S. dollar, inflation concerns, and rising government debt levels have contributed to its uptick.Read also:&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/news-articles/markets/equity/gold-futures-hit-record-high-as-us-plans-tariffs-for-gold-bars/chrnOuBRdEr">Gold Futures Hit Record High As US Reportedly Plans Tariffs For Gold Bars</a>For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.

White House Plans Gold Bar Tariff Clarification After Confusion Sends Gold Soaring: Report 

According to the Financial Times, the White House is planning on issuing an executive order to clarify any “misinformation” around tariffs on gold bars.

Gold futures rose to a record on Wednesday as the uncertainty over the outcome of the 2024 presidential election continues.&nbsp;The precious metal, however, came under some selling pressure in Thursday’s session amid the release of inflation data that casts a cloud on aggressive rate cuts by the Federal Reserve.Notwithstanding the pullback, gold futures have soared nearly 35% for the year-to-date period, outperforming the 23% gain for the SPDR S&amp;P 500 ETF Trust ($SPY), an exchange-traded fund that tracks the performance of the S&amp;P 500 Index.What’s Driving Gold RallyThe imminent U.S. election is seen as a key risk event that is driving the safe-haven gold higher. Nationwide opinion polls have all been unanimous in projecting a close election, with the lead in most cases coming within the margin of error of the survey.&nbsp;The&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://today.yougov.com/politics/articles/50839-harris-small-lead-over-trump-trust-in-elections-halloween-october-26-29-2024-economist-yougov-poll">results</a> of the Economist/YouGov survey released Wednesday showed Vice President Kamala Harris ahead of her rival Donald Trump by a point among registered voters and by two points among likely voters. This is well within the survey’s margin of error of +/- 3.4% for registered voters.Saxo Bank Head Of Commodity Strategy Ole Hansen&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.home.saxo/content/articles/commodities/will-the-us-election-result-spark-a-gold-correction-30102024">said&nbsp;</a>in a post on Wednesday that rate cuts by the Fed and other central banks are reducing the cost of holding non-interest-bearing assets like gold and silver.“The latest strength is increasingly being seen as a hedge against a potential ‘Red Sweep’ at the 5 November US election, where one political party, in this case, the Republicans, controls both the White House and Congress,” the strategist said.This has pushed up bond yields amid concerns about excessive government spending, likely pushing up the debt-to-GDP ratio higher, and potential reignition of inflationary pressure through tariffs on imports, Hansen said.Following Thursday’s hotter-than-expected inflation data,&nbsp; gold bull and economist Peter Schiff&nbsp;<a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://x.com/PeterSchiff/status/1851981708431630573">said</a> instead of selling gold in the wake of the data, investors should be buying it. “Inflation will get a lot hotter than this but the Fed will not take action to fight it. This is extremely bullish for gold,” he said.Against the backdrop, here’s a look at how gold performed in the first year of the presidency of the Republican Trump in 2017 and that of Democrat Joe Biden in 2021.&nbsp;Gold Under TrumpGold futures finished higher during the first year of Trump's presidency. The yellow metal had pulled back sharply ahead of the Nov. 8, 2016 election and barring a sharp spike a day after the election, it declined through mid-Dec. 2016.In 2017, gold saw intermittent rallies and pullbacks. Peaking above the $1,360 level in mid-September, it gave back some of its gains and yet finished the year about 14% higher.<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:1920/1080;" src="https://st-everywhere-cms-prod.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/gold_png_trump_ac694d63ab.png" alt="gold-png-trump.png" width="1920" height="1080"><figcaption>Chart Courtesy of TradingView</figcaption></figure>Gold Under BidenWhen Biden emerged victorious in the election held on Nov. 3, 2020, gold did not have as good a run as under his predecessor. It was a broader downtrend ahead of the election and the continuation of the trend until March 2021.&nbsp;Although the yellow metal staged a recovery, the rally proved short-lived. Gold futures peaked in early June before pulling back. Subsequently, it was locked in a broader consolidation phase.Gold ended 2021 down about 3.6%.<figure class="image"><img style="aspect-ratio:1920/1080;" src="https://st-everywhere-cms-prod.s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/gold_biden_e97ed921fb.png" alt="gold-biden.png" width="1920" height="1080"><figcaption>Chart Courtesy of TradingView</figcaption></figure>The comparisons may not always be apples-to-apples as the two past presidents have had to contend with entirely different sets of conditions and challenges during their times at office.
