Peter Brandt Foresees Bitcoin Hitting 100 Oz of Gold
Veteran trader Peter Brandt, a renowned figure in the trading community with over four decades of experience, has emphasized bitcoin’s consistent gains against gold since its inception. He illustrated this with a chart showing the number of gold ounces required to purchase one bitcoin. Brandt predicts that this ratio will remain volatile for the next 12 to 18 months before rising to 100 ounces of gold per BTC.
Referencing GC_F, a gold futures contract traded on the COMEX exchange, which is part of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) Group, the veteran trader wrote on social media platform X on Thursday:
Since its inception bitcoin BTC has gained against gold. This chart shows the # oz. of GC_F to buy one BTC. The ratio should chop for another 12 to 18 months — then advance to 100 oz of GC to buy a BTC.
Brandt also seeks gold advocate Peter Schiff’s opinion on this projection. “What say you @PeterSchiff,” his X post concludes. This was not the first time Brandt had tried to engage Schiff on the subject of gold versus bitcoin. Schiff has asserted that gold has outperformed bitcoin. The gold bug recently wrote on X: “On Oct. 21, 2021, it took 37 ounces of gold to buy one bitcoin. Today it takes only 29. That’s a 22% decline, an official bear market.” He insisted that BTC “has underperformed gold for the past 2.5 years.” Brandt disagreed. In April, he urged Schiff to “put things in a broader perspective” when comparing gold to bitcoin.
A vocal bitcoin proponent, Brandt holds the view that BTC is vying to replace fiat currency as the primary store of value. However, he recently issued a serious warning about the future of crypto staking, calling it “the biggest disaster yet to come in crypto.” He anticipates significant disasters, bankruptcies, and personal financial losses within the sector.
