Friends, in celebration of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange’s (CME) launch of two new bitcoin indexes (BRR & BRTI), is going to compare the price of bitcoin and gold on a daily basis. We at FintekNews have written (and are on record) of saying that bitcoin will outperform gold in the future.**   Bitcoin IS the new gold.

Trading Notes (12/30):  No changes from yesterday EXCEPT have a Happy New Year! Go Bitcoin.

We wrote an article (8/17) going on the record saying bitcoin will outperform gold throughout the future. The chart below compares the pricing on that date to the two most recent trading days, as reference.
