Buying BTC is not a hedge against demise of USD.  If you think USD will fall then you should short USD.  If you think BTC will rise then you should long BTC.  There is no correlation as a trade.


Twiifm: "I'll show those greedy bitcoiners.  I'm gonna short BTC/USD but I'll diversify by going long USD/BTC since there is no correlation.  Mu ha ha ha."
