The trend of "profiting from devaluation" will continue in the long term as the share of gold and bitcoin in investors' portfolios expands. This was stated by analysts at JPMorgan, as reported by The Block.

"The rise in gold prices over the past year has far exceeded the movements implied by changes in the yield of the US dollar and bonds. This likely reflects a resurgence of [risk hedging strategies]," the experts noted.

The record influx into the cryptocurrency market in 2024 also indicated that bitcoin has become a structurally significant tool for market participants.

JPMorgan called the past year a "turning point" for the digital asset industry. According to their estimates, the total capital inflow in this direction over 12 months amounted to about $78 billion.

Of this, $27 billion went to ETFs, $14 billion to CME futures, $14 billion to crypto venture funds, $22 billion was represented in purchases of bitcoin by MicroStrategy, and $1 billion in miners' transactions.
