International gold prices are destined to crash.

Unlike on-chain Bitcoin, physical precious metals have anti-authentication, anti-divisibility, non-transferability, global supply non-auditable, unlimited supply, non-backup, resistance to counterparty settlement agreements, multi-location key security, household mining impossibility, non-improvability, high security storage costs, and may have many other flaws that people are not yet aware of.
Will gold be a safe-haven asset in 2026? Absolutely not. Gold, as a symbol of status and identity, has very low industrial utility. In other words, the surge in gold prices is detached from fundamentals, creating a huge bubble, and the US and Russia will heavily sell physical gold to pay off debts.
In the 1980s, automotive development drove the industrial revolution, similar to the upcoming era of AI tokens. The 80s industrial revolution, but 80% of car investments would lose money because people didn’t know when a car brand would completely fade away. The most stable investment is shorting horses, which has been profitable up to now, as countless auto stocks have delisted. Shorting horses can still be profitable. But the news won’t report this, and experts will only promote certain auto stocks. When they delist and go into hiding, and prices skyrocket, that’s called a financial genius—very ironic. In the 1980s, China was the world’s largest horse breeder, with a stock of up to 11 million horses, but due to reduced demand from mechanization and military needs, the stock gradually declined. By 2019, the national horse population dropped to 3.67 million, and in 2021, further down to over 3.6 million, about two-thirds below the peak.
Ordinary people cannot diversify their bets like the wealthy do, betting on the last stable opportunity. It’s like the 18th century’s doomed products—shorting horses or betting against outdated industries. This is the fundamental logic behind my multiple market tops and bottoms. If I lived in the 18th century, I would short horses and lightly invest in a few leading auto stocks. Now, I would short gold and liquidate positions to go long on AI, robots, Ethereum wavelength tokens, etc.
ETH long-term weekly chart (based on daily K-line) is bearish; previously, I shorted at 3400 after topping out.
The real bull market has not yet begun and is expected to start in Q2 2026. The Federal Reserve will lower interest rates, and liquidity will flow from precious metals into risk assets.
If this forecast proves correct, cryptocurrencies will experience a sustained strong rally over the next approximately six quarters.
The true answers are denied, covered up, suppressed, and criticized. It’s very sad but undeniable. When the era abandons you, it won’t even say goodbye, but it will reward those who dare to run forward.
