March 27 (CoinDesk) — A new JPMorgan Chase report notes Bitcoin is showing greater resilience than traditional safe-haven assets like gold and silver, amid outflows from the precious metals, position liquidations, and worsening liquidity. The report highlights gold’s liquidity conditions have deteriorated so much that its market breadth now trails Bitcoin — a reversal of their usual dynamic.

Herrick noted blockchain technology will be integrated into existing systems in an additive, not substitutional, way, and that its advancement must account for regulatory frameworks, clearing systems, investor protections, and other “inherent advantages the market has developed to date.” He framed this approach as a fusion of traditional finance and blockchain: “This isn’t about which side is more right… I think they’ll converge over time.” NYSE is currently exploring how tokenized assets can function within existing systems, including use cases like real-time or near-real-time settlement and extended trading hours.
