S&P 500 vs. BTC: The Dilemma of the New Economy

S&P 500 at Record Highs, but in BTC Terms — Near the Bottom

SP500

Key zone: 6,700 - 6,750

Buy: 6,780 (on a pullback after a retest of 6.720); target 6,900; StopLoss 6,730

Sell: 6,700 (on a confident breakdown of 6,700); target 6,600-6,550; StopLoss 6,750

The modern market is redefining the concept of money, profitability, and investment.

Although the S&P 500 continues to set new records, according to calculations by Opening Bell Daily co-founder Phil Rosen, its value in Bitcoin terms has fallen by about 88% since 2020.

This is a clear signal that the world is adapting to a new reality — one where an asset’s true value depends on its stability and intrinsic trust, not its nominal price. The traditional economy still holds numerical dominance but is losing in terms of efficiency.

The S&P 500 is no longer the benchmark for success — the new measure of performance is Bitcoin.

Growing distrust toward fiat currencies, especially the U.S. dollar, continues to fuel the crypto rally. If central banks and major investment funds keep unloading dollars and other reserve currencies at the current pace, Bitcoin’s growth potential will be virtually limitless.

As Warren Buffett once wryly noted: “Price is what you pay; value is what you get.”

The S&P 500 has indeed accumulated trillions in market capitalization — but that figure is highly unstable and illogical.

Let’s recall:

The S&P 500 is denominated in U.S. dollars — a currency that the Federal Reserve keeps “printing” at breakneck speed. Continuous expansion of the money supply devalues the currency and increases debt pressure.

When stock prices rise not because of business efficiency but due to monetary manipulation and currency weakness, any market rally becomes nothing more than an optical illusion.

If index growth is fueled by cheap liquidity rather than real productivity, that’s not success — it’s inflation.

Bitcoin, on the other hand, doesn’t produce goods or services, but it offers something far more valuable — trust.

It’s largely free from government, banking, or corporate control and functions as a digital equivalent of the gold standard.

Unlike equities, whose value depends on the Federal Reserve’s decisions and unstable U.S. policy, Bitcoin represents pure market dynamics — a reaction to fear, inflation, and monetary manipulation.

Its transparency is coded into its algorithm; the rules are the same for everyone; and volatility is the price of monetary and technological independence.

Technology has become the new form of capital protection: stock indices depend on human discretion, while crypto depends on mathematics and code.

In a world shaped by geopolitical risk, natural disasters, wars, and erratic policymakers, Bitcoin looks increasingly like the more stable asset.

In the end, the real choice is yours — and may it be the right one.

From a technical standpoint, the S&P 500 remains in a bullish rally, aiming to decisively break through the $6,750 zone, with potential to advance toward $6,900–6,950.

However, the market is overloaded with risk and intermittent panic — a drop below $6,700 could trigger a wave of large StopLoss orders and speculative short-selling.

So we act wisely and avoid unnecessary risks.

Profits to y’all!
