Veteran trader Peter Brandt has analyzed the ongoing competition between Bitcoin and gold for the title of the ultimate store-of-value.
His review of the BTC/gold ratio highlights that Bitcoin’s value could potentially fall to 16 relative to gold while maintaining a long-term positive outlook.

Brandt’s analysis suggests that Bitcoin may face short-term declines but could eventually see its ratio with gold rise to 150 or higher.
This supports the view that Bitcoin has significant long-term potential as a store of value, despite its volatility compared to gold.
Brandt advises a diversified investment strategy, emphasizing the importance of holding both Bitcoin and gold.
This approach helps mitigate the risks associated with each asset and aligns with Brandt’s perspective that both can be valuable components of a balanced portfolio.
His analysis underscores the dynamic nature of this traditional versus digital value debate and advocates for flexibility in investment strategies.
