JPMorgan says the Iran war has produced an unusual market split: bitcoin is showing signs of safe-haven demand while gold and silver, the traditional geopolitical hedges, have weakened under the pressure of outflows, profit-taking and deteriorating liquidity. In a report dated March 26, Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou and his team said bitcoin has held up better than precious metals since the conflict escalated. Gold is down about 15% this month, according to the bank, while gold ETFs recorded nearly $11 billion in outflows in the first three weeks of March. Silver has also come under pressure, with JPMorgan saying ETF inflows built since last summer have now been unwound, even as bitcoin funds continued to post net inflows over the same stretch. Bitcoin Shows Safe-Haven Demand That divergence is not just a price story. JPMorgan argues it is also visible in positioning and market structure. Gold and silver had become heavily crowded trades after a run that pushed gold close to $5,500 an ounce and silver near $120 earlier this year. Related Reading: The Bitcoin Price Bottom Is Close, But There Is Still A Crash Below $60,000 Left As rates rose, the dollar strengthened and investors moved to de-risk, those positions started to unwind. CME-based positioning shows a sharp drop in gold and silver exposure since January, while bitcoin futures holdings have stayed comparatively stable in recent weeks. The bank’s explanation is more nuanced than a simple “bitcoin replaced gold” narrative. Bitcoin initially sold off with other risk assets when the war broke out, briefly falling into the low-$60,000 range before stabilizing back in the high-$60,000 to low-$70,000 area. JPMorgan’s point is that bitcoin did not behave like a classic shelter in the first shock phase, but it recovered as flows returned, while gold and silver kept losing support. Related Reading: Bitcoin Recovery Lacks One Key Ingredient, Glassnode Warns JPMorgan also tied that relative resilience to crypto’s utility in a stressed jurisdiction. “The deterioration in liquidity conditions in gold has seen its market breadth decline below that of bitcoin currently,” the bank wrote. In a separate summary of the same report, JPMorgan said, “The surge in Iran’s crypto activity highlights the role of cryptocurrencies as a safe haven asset in countries experiencing economic and monetary instability and geopolitical stress.” The bank cited Chainalysis data showing increased Iranian crypto activity after the outbreak of war, including transfers from domestic exchanges into self-custody wallets and international platforms. That combination of borderless settlement, self-custody and round-the-clock trading sits at the center of the bank’s argument. Bitcoin’s momentum indicators, which had fallen into oversold territory, are now moving back toward neutral, JPMorgan said, suggesting selling pressure may be easing. Gold and silver momentum, by contrast, swung from overbought to below-neutral as liquidations accelerated. The bank’s liquidity work points the same way: gold’s market breadth has now fallen below bitcoin’s, while silver’s thinner depth has made its decline even more violent.

On‑chain trackers showed GameStop’s $324 million worth of bitcoin leaving its wallets for Coinbase. Many assumed a full‑blown dump, but SEC filings show the company still has exposure to Bitcoin, just not in the way most traders think. Related Reading: Bitcoin Rangebound At $70K While Macro Cracks Deepen – Why Analyst Says It’s Too Early To Call A Bottom A Bitcoin “Covered-Call” Deal On paper, GameStop now only owns 1 BTC. The gaming company’s latest 10-K reveal that instead of offloading the 4,710 BTC it bought January last year, the video game retailer has pledged 4,709 of 4,710 BTC to Coinbase for a covered call strategy, receiving about $368 million in cash while capping upside above roughly $105,000–$110,000 per BTC. A covered call is an options strategy where you own an asset and sell call options against it to collect premium income, but in exchange you cap your upside if the price moves sharply higher. This is exactly what GameStop did: it handed Coinbase almost all its BTC as collateral and sold call options on that stack. In return, it pulled in upfront cash premium plus a receivable, instead of a volatile asset on its books. This agreement lets Coinbase rehypothecate, commingle, or even sell the pledged Bitcoin, which is why accounting rules force GameStop to derecognize the coins and book a “digital asset receivable” instead. In contrast with classic corporate Bitcoin treasuries (MicroStrategy‑style HODL), GameStop is using BTC more like a yield‑bearing financial instrument than a long‑term conviction bet. Why GameStop Chose Yield Over Upside GameStop’s strategy answers to the reality of the era of digital download gaming. With shrinking sales due to a decreasing demand for physical media and little room to grow, the company is increasingly using financial engineering to squeeze out income. The company’s revenue went down roughly 25% year‑on‑year and about 14% in Q4 2025. Therefore, in handing its Bitcoin to Coinbase and selling call options on it, GameStop is using the premiums and credit line to pull forward cash it desperately needs today. Related Reading: Binance Just Declared War On Quiet Market Makers —3 Red Flags Every Trader Should Watch GameStop is an example of a new phase in corporate Bitcoin adoption, where treasuries don’t just buy and hold but actively lend, pledge, and option‑out their coins for yield, giving execution and rehypothecation power to venues like Coinbase. If Bitcoin rips through six figures, GameStop shareholders may watch Coinbase and options counterparties enjoy most of the upside while GME is left with a fixed‑income‑style payout, a dynamic traders should factor into any “Bitcoin‑linked equity” thesis.

Over the years, there have been various predictions that have put the Dogecoin price as high as $10. Mostly, the last bull cycle was expected to propel the meme coin through this target. However, Dogecoin was unable to clear its previous $0.74 all-time high, and thus, the $1 level remains elusive. While this is going on, a market analyst has shared multiple reasons that will actually cause the meme coin’s price to reach the coveted $10 level. The Factors That Will Determine The Surge In an X post, crypto market analyst, Namtoshi, pointed out four major developments that will need to happen for the Dogecoin price to even think of reaching $10. Given that the current circulating supply of DOGE is sitting above 169 billion, it would mean that the market cap of Dogecoin would have to reach $1.5 trillion for the unit price to be $10. Related Reading: Ethereum Accumulation Map Reveals Price Roadmap To $20,000 To achieve this, the analyst says that the first thing that would need to happen is that the meme coin would have to see massive capital inflows. As Bitcoinist previously reported, Dogecoin is still struggling on the institutional inflow side. The DOGE ETFs’ inflows have slowed down considerably since launch, as it seems investors are focusing on other options. Another factor listed is that Dogecoin would have to have some real-world utility. For Bitcoin, its use case has been as a store of value. On the other hand, Dogecoin has been pushed as a payment method, appearing on businesses like Tesla. But the meme coin is yet to garner mainstream usage. Third on the list is institutional adoption; this would mean that Dogecoin would have to gain widespread institutional adoption as Bitcoin has, triggering massive inflows from big players. Adoption by companies through direct investment would propel its value, same as Bitcoin. Last but not least, the analyst says peak retail mania would have to happen. An example of this is back in 2021, when the Dogecoin price rose by over 30,000%, spurred on by billionaire Elon Musk. The meme coin would need to see a repeat of this trend, but on a much wider scale, to reach $10. X Money Could Be The Answer For Dogecoin The launch of X Money is one of the most highly anticipated launch currently in the crypto industry and this is because community members are waiting to see if it will come with a crypto function. So far, the early looks at the feature have shown no sign of Dogecoin, causing many to think that Elon Musk may have no plans to make DOGE a payment method. Related Reading: None Of The 30 Bitcoin Market Peak Indicators Have Been Hit, So Why Did The Price Crash? With the X Money feature set to launch next month in April, Namtoshi explains that a Dogecoin integration would be bullish for the meme coin. In fact, if DOGE is listed as a payment method, then the analyst says this could be the catalyst that drives Dogecoin. Featured image from Dall.E, chart from TradingView.com
