The 30-day correlation between gold and Bitcoin influences hedging strategies by indicating how these assets move together. A high positive correlation (e.g., 0.87 in 2024) suggests they often rise or fall in tandem, reducing diversification benefits. Investors might pair them with uncorrelated assets like stocks to offset risk. A low or negative correlation (e.g., near zero historically) enhances hedging, as one asset may offset losses in the other during market stress. Gold’s stability contrasts Bitcoin’s volatility, so a rising correlation could signal Bitcoin maturing as a "digital gold," but it limits its standalone hedge potential. Strategies adapt by balancing exposure based on correlation trends and risk tolerance.
