# Gold and BTC Diverge: A Battle Over the Definition of Safe-Haven Assets
# Woke up, and BTC pulled back to 70k. On the drive this morning, the radio was reporting that gold came under pressure as the Fed's March FOMC meeting failed to meet rate cut expectations, erasing all gains for the year so far.
