Take some profits into US dollars. The Euro, Pound, Yuan, and other currencies will also collapse relative to the US dollar due to the carry trades and pegs to the dollars which put the rest of the world bet short against the dollar.
I'm not risking trading. I'm long term. What you say could be correct, but even if Gold does go lower in the medium term, BTC might not be affected. We saw the past several years where Gold was in a bear market and BTC was booming.
Mmm-hmm. Prices of BTC and gold do seem to move relatively independently of each other.
Incorrect. They are highly correlated (if a smoothing filter is employed) since 2013. Gold had a rise recently and so did Bitcoin.
Btw, MA has totally debunked the idea that the historic gold/silver ration is 15.
Come on guys, stop being emotional and study the data.
I still submit that BTC and gold have somewhat different price movements, especially given more time than since 2013. I suspect (guess) that BTC and gold prices will be less correlated before too long. They are different enough that they count as independent investments for me, I HODL both.

I agree re the Au:Ag price ratio of +/- 15 is not too meaningful. This has indeed varied quite a bit in history. You already know, TPTB, that our pal FOFOA is predicting a
YUGE Au:Ag ratio..... Should this happen along those lines, that "historical ratio" will then become worth its real value: NOT MUCH.
I would say similar for platinum, my sentimental favorite.
