According to @BullTheoryio, YTD 2025 returns show Silver +130%, Gold +65%, Copper +35%, Nasdaq +20%, S&P 500 +16%, and Russell 2000 +13%, while BTC -6%, ETH -12%, and altcoins -42% (source: @BullTheoryio on X, Dec 20, 2025). The post states crypto is the worst-performing major asset in 2025, underscoring pronounced underperformance versus metals and US equities for traders tracking relative momentum and rotation (source: @BullTheoryio on X, Dec 20, 2025).

According to @charliebilello, gold is up 55% year-to-date in 2025 while Bitcoin is down 9%, making gold the best-performing major asset and Bitcoin the worst, highlighting a rare divergence (source: @charliebilello on X, Nov 22, 2025; bilello.blog/newsletter). According to @charliebilello, this setup is the inverse of 2013, indicating an unusual rotation that traders can benchmark via GLD versus BTC performance for relative-strength tracking (source: @charliebilello on X, Nov 22, 2025; bilello.blog/newsletter). According to @charliebilello, the reported spread supports trading approaches that favor GLD over BTC or monitoring the GLD/BTC spread for momentum or mean-reversion signals, with risk framed by the stated YTD gap (source: @charliebilello on X, Nov 22, 2025; bilello.blog/newsletter).
