Tech volatility raises investor nervousness and pushes down crypto, gold trades below $4k again

Last Updated on 25 June 2026 by CryptoTips.eu

Bitcoin dove under the psychologically important price point of $60,000 yesterday while investor nervousness increases. Front-page news in both the Wall Street Journal and the Financial Times reminded readers that many companies that have invested heavily in AI are still seeing no ROI (return on investment) from it. Gold very notably dropped below $4,000 per ounce for the first time in a year.

SpaceX has dropped so fast that Musk is no longer a trillionaire.

Gold and silver had a fantastic 2025, with gains of 60 and 125% respectively, but this year is considerably less so.

Although the first weeks of the year were still quite positive, both precious metals took a heavy hit in February (just like Bitcoin) when the war between Iran and the United States broke out.

Meanwhile, gold is back below $4k for the first time since November last year, while the silver chart is starting to look like a memecoin.

Bitcoin, which is also experiencing a very bad year, traded briefly below $60k again and is finding it increasingly difficult to break out upwards. If the pressure on tech stocks becomes too great in the coming days and weeks, you can expect a test of the support line around $54,000.
