Bitcoin has already shown relative weakness in this cycle, but the bigger risk may still lie ahead.
In this video, we explore the possibility that BTC could drop another 30% against gold, and why that wouldn’t be unprecedented in a late-cycle environment. When liquidity tightens and the business cycle matures, capital typically rotates away from high-beta assets and toward harder, more defensive stores of value. Historically, that’s where gold tends to shine.
We’ll walk through the macro backdrop driving this thesis, including:
The role of restrictive monetary policy and tightening liquidity
Why late-cycle environments often favor commodities over speculative assets
The relationship between BTC and gold across previous cycles
How a continued move in oil and the dollar could further pressure BTC on a relative basis
We’ll also discuss why this isn’t necessarily a bearish case for Bitcoin in absolute terms, but rather a reflection of where we likely are in the broader cycle. BTC can still be a long-term winner, while underperforming gold in the intermediate term.
If the business cycle continues to weaken, and if liquidity remains constrained, the BTC/gold pair may still have further downside before a more durable bottom is found.
As always, this channel focuses on data-driven insights and risk management, not hype.
