The BTC-Gold Ratio Just Hit Support — And History Says a Major Regime Shift Is Coming
FULL TRANSCRIPT
Let's talk Bitcoin. Let's talk Bitcoin
after what happened with gold. And uh
we're not talking about gold.
Uh we're not really talking about
Bitcoin here. We are talking about
power. And let me explain because when
you divide Bitcoin by gold, you are no
longer measuring price. You are
measuring which monetary system is
winning.
And the chart you are looking at right
now ask one simple dangerous question.
Did the BTC
Bitcoin to gold ratio just find
long-term support?
These are the type of questions that we
ask on this channel. And by supporting
it, you support my effort and you
support me helping you
better understand what is going on in
this market.
I want you to understand what is going
on in the market. I want you to be
educated.
What do I want? I want you to realize
that it's not about making money in the
stock market. It's about not losing any.
And the second important fact that you
need to realize is that whenever they
tell you what is happening, for example,
the situation with gold and then they're
tying it up to the fact that we have a
new Fed chair.
You say, "Well, looks like gold was
impacted by the Fed chair because he
might be tougher and stronger with the
dollar. therefore enhancing the dollar.
But that's purely correlation. Okay? But
let's just remember that correlation is
not causation. And just because they say
so doesn't mean it's so.
So
let us uh continue
and talk a little bit more about this
chart which I find quite interesting I
must say.
Um so essentially what we're doing as
usual we're looking at a ratio. We're
dividing the Bitcoin to gold.
And I guess we're asking the question,
did the BTC to gold ratio just find a
long-term support? If the answer is yes,
then the next phase of markets will not
look like the last one. And if the
answer is no, then crypto is facing a
much deeper reckoning than most
investors are prepared for.
So
there are two panels. Let's let's
understand what we're looking at.
Um the top panel, the blue line is the
Bitcoin price
and the gold line is the gold price.
This is not the main event. Okay, the
real story is the bottom panel.
The red line is the Bitcoin price in
ounces of gold,
which we removes the dollar entirely. So
when this ratio rises, as you could see
in the square red boxes, Bitcoin is
outperforming gold as a monetary asset.
When it falls, gold is reclaiming
dominance.
This is this is pure monetary
competition chart,
not a CPI, there's no net earning, just
store of value versus
store of value.
We're now focused on the two red boxes
highlighted on the chart.
The first red box covers 2020 to 2021.
That was the era of global money
printing, fiscal dominance,
zero rates, peak liquidity. Bitcoin
absolutely obliterated gold
destroyed it. The BTC to gold ratio
exploded higher as investors chase
asymmetric upside and fled monetary
discipline.
Remember Bitcoin? Then then came the
collapse from late 2021 to 2022. The
ratio unwaned violently. Why?
Because liquidity was withdrawn. This is
a concept that we're going to have to go
over a couple of times with the idea
that Bitcoin is driven by liquidity.
We'll do a video on that, too. So, at
that time, rates rose and suddenly
volatility was no longer free.
Now, look at the second rate box, the
one that's more of interest to us. 2024
to 2025.
The pattern is disturbingly familiar.
Bitcoin surges again.
narratives return, ETF flows explode,
and momentum traders pile in. And once
again, the ratio rolls over. Same
behavior,
same psychology,
different macro backdrop.
Now we get to the most important feature
of the chart,
the green dashed trend line.
This is a multi-year rising support line
in the BTC to gold ratio stretching back
nearly a decade.
Every time the ratio collapses into this
zone,
seller pressure exhausts, volatility
compresses, and a decision point
emerges. We are not sitting directly on
that trend line.
This is a structure. We're not noises,
right? So markets do not respect lines
because traders draw them. They respect
them because capital reacts there. And
historically when this level breaks and
holds it defines entire market regimes.
So
three
scenarios from here.
Scenario one the ratio holds.
If BTC to gold holds it support,
Bitcoin resumes leadership. Now,
obviously, as as since it's Bitcoin over
over gold, right? As gold dropped,
um
inflation. So, so Bitcoin resumes
leadership that the risk assets regain
dominance and liquidity conditions
quietly improve. This would imply that
inflation is politically tolerated, real
rates stop rising and monetary
discipline remains absent.
This is what you call a speculative
regime continuation outcome.
The scenario two, the ratio breaks.
If this support fails, gold massively
outperforms Bitcoin, which has been the
case in the past, and volatility
premiums collapse. Capital rotates
towards stability. This would signal
that real rates matter again. Liquidity
is constrained and monetary trust is
questioned.
That would be what you call a defensive
regime shift. And of course the third
one is the grind most dangerous scenario
where the ratio chops sideways. Both
assets rise but gold rises faster.
Bitcoin loses narrative power without
crashing.
This is how bubbles die quietly. So
this ratio is not about crypto. It's
about the trust in the central banks,
the acceptance of inflation,
the tolerance of volatility, and the
cost of capital. I know it's a lot to
think about
because Bitcoin thrives when liquidity
is abundant. As we have seen what's
happening with Bitcoin right now,
liquidity is not so abundant for
Bitcoin. Policy credibility is weak and
risk is underpriced.
and gold thrives when you know thrust
erodess volatility rises and capital
preservations dominates.
So what's interesting you don't need to
understand everything I'm saying but
basically you know the BTC to go ratio
tells which psychological state the
market is in
right now it's a fragile equilibrium.
So what do serious investors you know
investors do here? Don't forget to
subscribe and to give us a like. We do
not chase, we do not nar, you know,
narratives. We do not and but we do not
ignore the ratios.
Watch the trend line. Watch the slope.
Watch the reaction.
If the BTC to gold bounces back
convincingly, risk appetite survives.
But if it breaks, gold is not done. The
crypto beta will disappoint and
volatility will repric.
So
this chart will lead headlines but not
follow them.
Um this is again another regime call and
you could see that in that chart. It's
important for you to to to
understand that
because what it does it shows you a
a shift a psychological shift. So let's
let's
Let's go over that point one more time
so that you understand what um
what this psychological
state the market is in.
It it basically we're looking at the BTC
which is Bitcoin over gold. And what
we're seeing is that the trust in the
central banks, the acceptance of
inflation, the tolerance of volatility
is one side and on the other side you've
got liquidity is abundant, policy
credibility is weak and risk is
underpriced and you kind of have at the
end of the day you you you the liquidity
is is not so abandoned for the Bitcoin
while is policy credibility weak.
We shall see. Um, is risk underpriced?
And this is always the thing that
bothers me is that people that join as
members also and I tell that to my
members. I I come to members every day
um between 8 and 9:00 and say, "Okay,
this is what's happening today." And a
lot of them join because they say,
"Well, what shall I do?" You know,
where's the market going to do next?
what's going to happen. That's the wrong
approach. What you need to do is you
need to understand you may not
understand everything and that's okay.
Tell that to my investors and to my to
my students. Um I I tell them the same
thing but you're not supposed to
understand everything but you're
supposed to grasp what's going on the
psychology
of the market. meaning that you're not
supposed to know what's causing it. No
one knows. You know, I always listen to
the social media, but some of the
channels um uh on cable and Bloomberg
and all these guys, and they invite all
these people over and because they want,
they know the people want to know what
do you think is going to happen. But if
these people knew what was going to
happen,
they would do it for themselves and they
wouldn't be here trying to make a bug
trying to tell you what's going to
happen. Right? So the idea is it's quite
simple actually. You're not here to make
money. You're here not to lose any.
That's the most important thing. And the
second thing is don't assume because on
one hand they show you oh look gold went
down and look what happened to the new
guy that came in
the the well he hasn't come in yet but
the new Fed chair he's going to be
tough. He's going to he's going to be
strong for the dollar. So therefore
really it's that simple. Well he came in
and gold went down. they went down. So,
you know, maybe that's it. It's like
saying that it's basically saying like
uh um
that the cholesterol causes heart
attack.
That's basically the same thing. Look
into it, by the way.
