AI portals such as ChatGPT and Grok sometimes end up delivering interesting insights, different from the collective opinion at times. In one such instance, Lark Davis, a leading entrepreneur and a Bitcoin investor, asked Grok about which asset may perform worst in 2026, with gold and Bitcoin as the two options to choose from. Grok’s reply was quite interesting, as it selected gold to fall eventually in 2026. What is this development all about? Let’s find out.

Davis took to X to conduct an interesting experiment, asking Grok about the worst-performing assets of 2026. The AI was given a choice between Bitcoin and gold to select from, with the Twitter AI selecting gold as the asset falling off a cliff in the near future.

Grok shared its reasoning behind the asset, claiming that based on forecasts, Bitcoin could gain $165k driven by accumulation and cycles, while gold may fall due to its constant ascent to $5k, which may later trigger a volatile period.

“I’d remove gold. Based on forecasts, Bitcoin could see 100%+ gains to $169k in 2026 driven by accumulation and cycles, while gold’s upside to $5k/oz is more modest at ~16% amid stability. Volatility aside, BTC has higher potential. Not financial advice.”

Can Gold Truly Fall Off The Radar?

As per CoinCodex stats, Bitcoin is currently sitting at $90k and is expected to fall further below to $80k by 2027.

Moreover, the gold price is forecasted to rise steadily on the radar, hitting $5k to $6k as per the latest forecasts and predictions, bringing a new outlook to the table.

“Gold broke out in March 2024 from a 13-year cup & handle formation. Since then, gold has been rallying in a parabolic mode, having gained 120% in less than 2 years. Most importantly, the run is not over. Silver broke out from its 45-year cup & handle formation a month ago. Can’t even imagine how far and how long it could run higher….”
