Bitcoin: Worst Asset of 2026 at -31%

Bitcoin posted a 31% loss and Gold a 6% decline through June 2026, making both the worst-performing major assets in any calendar year on record.

Price action on the 4h chart shows BTC locked in a bearish structure below the EMA50 at $61863.8 and the EMA200 at $66843.65. Momentum remains neutral with RSI at 45.56 while the MACD registers a bullish golden cross at -547.83, yet the market trades inside the Bollinger Bands with upper resistance at $61629.22 and lower support at $59017.39. A test of the upper band often precedes exhaustion, so a retracement toward the 50-EMA support zone appears probable before any sustained move higher.
