Gold Price Hits Record High, Why Is Bitcoin Silent? Analyst Evaluates and Reveals Bitcoin Price Forecast

As we enter the final days of 2025, the cards are being reshuffled in the financial markets. Appearing on Scott Melker’s “The Wolf Of All Streets,” Arch Public co-founder Andrew Parish discussed the dominance of precious metals over cryptocurrencies and the risks facing the global economy.

The focus of the news is the overwhelming performance of gold and silver against Bitcoin. Gold prices reaching $4,500 for the first time in history has shocked the markets, while Bitcoin’s stagnation in the narrow range of $85,000 to $90,000 is causing discouragement among investors.

Parish pointed out that this aggressive rise in gold prices has only occurred a few times in history and that it is usually a harbinger of major crises (such as the Roman Crisis, the Weimar Republic, and the collapse of the Soviet Union).

According to the expert, this volatility is an indication that people have lost faith in global state mechanisms and traditional currencies.

As recession fears escalate in the markets, incoming economic data is causing confusion. The US third-quarter GDP data showed continued growth at 4.3%, exceeding expectations. However, Parish warned that if the Fed does not accelerate interest rate cuts, the long-awaited major recession could finally be upon us.

For cryptocurrency investors, the end of 2025 is being described as an “emotional bottom.” While individual investor interest may have decreased, it’s noteworthy that giant institutions like BlackRock continue to see Bitcoin as the most important investment vehicle of 2025. Parish predicts that the market will gain slow upward momentum in the first half of 2026, with the real major movement occurring in the second half of 2026.
