黃金和比特幣 (BTC) 經歷了相似的高點，BTC 價格短暫觸及兩個月高點 68,375 美元

在全球避險資產需求和主要央行降息預期的推動下，金價過去一周上漲逾2%，創下歷史新高

The price of gold has reached a new all-time high, fueled by global demand for safe-haven assets and anticipated interest rate cuts from major central banks.

在全球對避險資產的需求以及主要央行降息預期的推動下，金價創下歷史新高。

As of Oct. 18, the price of gold has hiked to $2,700 per ounce, according to Trading Economics data. This marks a 2.08% increase in the past week and nearly 5% in the past month.

根據Trading Economics的數據，截至10月18日，金價已升至每盎司2,700美元。這標誌著過去一周增長了2.08%，過去一個月增長了近5%。

This surge in demand for gold is driven by several factors, including the ongoing war in the Middle East and the Israeli military’s confirmation on Oct. 17 that they killed Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, sparking fears of a regional escalation.

黃金需求激增是由多種因素推動的，其中包括中東持續的戰爭以及以色列軍方10月17日證實他們殺死了哈馬斯領導人葉海亞·辛瓦爾，引發了對地區局勢升級的擔憂。

Additionally, major central banks' expected interest rate cuts are also contributing to the increased demand for safe-haven assets. The European Central Bank has already cut rates three times this year, bringing the deposit rate down to 3.25%.

此外，主要央行的降息預期也導致避險資產需求增加。歐洲央行今年已三度降息，存款利率降至3.25%。

Meanwhile, Bitcoin (BTC) continues to climb, with its price showing a positive trend since Oct. 10. According to crypto.news data, BTC experienced an 11% surge over the past week and briefly touched a two-month high of $68,375 on Oct. 16.

同時，比特幣（BTC）持續攀升，其價格自10月10日以來呈現正面趨勢。月16 日。

This sustained rise in Bitcoin's price has sparked comparisons to the performance of gold in the macro market, with a noted similarity in their price trends.

比特幣價格的持續上漲引發了人們將其與宏觀市場中的黃金表現進行比較，兩者的價格趨勢明顯相似。

Co-founder of crypto asset manager Capriole Investments, Charles Edwards, highlighted this observation in his recent X post, commenting on the lagging nature of Bitcoin trends behind gold.

加密資產管理公司 Capriole Investments 的聯合創始人 Charles Edwards 在他最近的 X 貼文中強調了這一觀察結果，並評論了比特幣趨勢落後於黃金的滯後性。

“As a rough rule of thumb, macro Bitcoin trends are often lagged behind gold by a few months. Looks promising,” noted Edwards.

「根據粗略的經驗法則，比特幣的宏觀趨勢通常落後於黃金幾個月。看起來很有希望，」愛德華茲指出。

In recent years, investors have drawn parallels between the price movements of gold and Bitcoin in the market. This comparison stems from the finite supply of both assets and their independence from any national currency.

近年來，投資者將市場上黃金和比特幣的價格走勢進行了比較。這種比較源自於這兩種資產的有限供應及其獨立於任何國家貨幣。

Both assets provide investors with a "safe-haven" that shields them from the volatility of national currencies. Hence, Bitcoin itself has frequently been likened to “digital gold.”

這兩種資產都為投資者提供了“避風港”，使他們免受其貨幣波動的影響。因此，比特幣本身經常被比作「數位黃金」。

Now, a real-world assets platform called Swarm Markets has made it possible to mint and trade physical gold on the Bitcoin blockchain through the Ordinals protocol.

現在，一個名為 Swarm Markets 的現實世界資產平台已經可以透過 Ordinals 協議在比特幣區塊鏈上鑄造和交易實體黃金。

On Oct. 17, Swarm Markets announced a partnership with OrdinalsBot to inscribe individual satoshis with unique gold kilobar serial numbers. This will enable gold bars to be traded on Bitcoin's Ordinals protocol.

10 月 17 日，Swarm Markets 宣布與 OrdinalsBot 合作，為單一聰刻上獨特的千金條序號。這將使金條能夠在比特幣的 Ordinals 協議上進行交易。

Through this collaboration, gold will become the first real-world asset (RWA) available on Trio, a marketplace being developed by OrdinalsBot and scheduled to launch by the end of the year.

透過此次合作，黃金將成為 Trio 上提供的第一個現實世界資產 (RWA)，Trio 是一個由 OrdinalsBot 開發的市場，計劃於今年年底推出。
