According to BitcoinSistemi, Bitcoin's (BTC) recent sharp price decline has raised doubts about its role as a 'digital gold' and stable store of value. Nate Geraci of NovaDius Wealth Management noted that while Bitcoin showed strong performance during the 2025 'tariff tantrum' sell-off, it recently fell more sharply than the stock market. Geraci emphasized that Bitcoin's behavior remains too volatile and young to be considered a true store of value, comparing it to a 15-16-year-old asset. He also highlighted that most other crypto tokens behave more like tech stocks than stores of value. The recent sell-off was driven by tech stock weakness and high leverage in the crypto market, with spot Bitcoin ETFs seeing significant outflows in the past month.
