Gold vs BTC: JPMorgan strategist says BTC is looking more attractive at current levels than Gold for the long-term investment prospects. The suggestion comes despite veteran trader Peter Brandt and financial services firm Stifel predicting a further Bitcoin price crash.

Gold vs BTC: JPMorgan Strategist Sees Bitcoin Hitting $266,000 in Long Term

On February 5, JPMorgan global markets strategist Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou said Gold’s massive outperformance leaves Bitcoin looking more attractive over the long term.

While the Bitcoin price crash has intensified by more than 40%, a JPMorgan strategist predicts BTC could reach $266,000. He claims gold prices are reaching buy limits after a massive rally in recent months.

Bitcoin crash to $69K has pushed its price considerably below its estimated mining cost. JPMorgan estimated the average production costs at around $87K. This causes miner capitulation to push unprofitable miners out of the market and gradually lower production costs.

Also, spot Bitcoin ETFs continue to suffer outflows, suggesting negative sentiment among both retail and institutional investors.

However, JPMorgan noted that recent price action has led to the Bitcoin-to-gold volatility ratio drifting to a record low of 1.5. Once the current negative sentiment subsides, BTC will begin rallying towards 266,000.

Bold Bitcoin Price Crash Predictions by Peter Brandt and Stifel

While gold continues its massive outperformance despite 2% drop to $4850, veteran trader Peter Brandt and Stifel forecast a further Bitcoin price crash. This comes as the crypto market crashes deeper after technical and on-chain data spark bear market concerns.

Brandt has turned bearish amid the ongoing downtrend. In recent analysis, he highlighted “campaign selling” patterns causing severe corrections. His claims potential drop toward $63,800 next. Recently, Peter Brandt lowered his BTC target to $54,000.

Meanwhile, Stifel analysts predict Bitcoin price could crash to as low as $38,000. The firm based its analysis on Bitcoin’s historic crash pattern since 2010. Bitcoin tumbled 93% in 2011, 84% in 2015, 83% in 2018, and 76% in 2022. A trendline connecting these market bottoms slopes points to $38,000 as the potential depth amid the latest capitulation.

Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For

The post Fed Decides On Interest Rates Today—Here’s What To Watch For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Topline The Federal Reserve on Wednesday will conclude a two-day policymaking meeting and release a decision on whether to lower interest rates—following months of pressure and criticism from President Donald Trump—and potentially signal whether additional cuts are on the way. President Donald Trump has urged the central bank to “CUT INTEREST RATES, NOW, AND BIGGER” than they might plan to. Getty Images Key Facts The central bank is poised to cut interest rates by at least a quarter-point, down from the 4.25% to 4.5% range where they have been held since December to between 4% and 4.25%, as Wall Street has placed 100% odds of a rate cut, according to CME’s FedWatch, with higher odds (94%) on a quarter-point cut than a half-point (6%) reduction. Fed governors Christopher Waller and Michelle Bowman, both Trump appointees, voted in July for a quarter-point reduction to rates, and they may dissent again in favor of a large cut alongside Stephen Miran, Trump’s Council of Economic Advisers’ chair, who was sworn in at the meeting’s start on Tuesday. It’s unclear whether other policymakers, including Kansas City Fed President Jeffrey Schmid and St. Louis Fed President Alberto Musalem, will favor larger cuts or opt for no reduction. Fed Chair Jerome Powell said in his Jackson Hole, Wyoming, address last month the central bank would likely consider a looser monetary policy, noting the “shifting balance of risks” on the U.S. economy “may warrant adjusting our policy stance.” David Mericle, an economist for Goldman Sachs, wrote in a note the “key question” for the Fed’s meeting is whether policymakers signal “this is likely the first in a series of consecutive cuts” as the central bank is anticipated to “acknowledge the softening in the labor market,” though they may not “nod to an October cut.” Mericle said he…
