Amid a shocking rise in the value of gold, cryptocurrency analyst Michaël van de Poppe has drawn parallels between it and crypto’s current stage, opining that digital assets could soon mirror gold’s massive multi-trillion-dollar rally.

Specifically, van de Poppe said that retail investors were far from leaving the crypto market and that they were simply waiting for momentum, which means that we should be in for “the biggest run of our lifetime,” according to the analysis he shared in an X post on October 19.

Indeed, he believes that the same investor behavior that has driven the gold market capitalization from around $12 trillion to $30 trillion, largely the consequence of inflation fears, institutional accumulation, and global liquidity shifts, will soon return to crypto as it begins its major uptrend.

Retail rotation and the next parabolic move

Historically, retail money has flowed where price momentum was the strongest. During the 2020-2021 bull cycle, crypto adoption spiked as Bitcoin (BTC) crossed $20,000 and Ethereum (ETH) broke new highs. Van de Poppe suggests a similar pattern could unfold once again, especially with macro catalysts like exchange-traded fund (ETF) inflows, institutional trading, and AI-driven infrastructure interest.

Meanwhile, the crypto market’s representative asset, Bitcoin, is changing hands at the price of $110,827.63, indicating a 4.19% gain in the last 24 hours, as it moves to reverse the loss of 3.67% across the previous week and the accumulated decline of 4.31% on its monthly chart.

If the gold-to-crypto analogy holds, a proportional move could see digital assets reaching multi-trillion-dollar valuations in the next cycle. This would make the total crypto market cap rival or even exceed traditional asset classes. The crypto expert’s message is that retail investors may be quiet now, but history shows they return fast and in numbers when prices begin to rise.
