In the past two years, no matter how well the stories in the crypto world are told, they cannot hide a deeper signal flashing — the Dow Jones and gold ratios are triggering a historic turning point.
A quick look at the data makes it clear. Over the past 130+ years, this ratio has only experienced three decisive shifts: the Great Depression in 1929, the stagflation crisis in 1966, and the internet bubble in 1999. Each time was not a false alarm but signaled a complete restructuring of the wealth landscape.
Now, it’s the fourth time. Falling below the long-term trend line of 45 from a high of 22.5 — how serious is this signal? A historical review shows that during the last turning point, the Dow Jones plummeted over 90% relative to gold, while gold experienced multiple times growth potential.
Looking at those three crises, regardless of whether they later experienced inflation, deflation, or stagflation, gold, this ancient store of value, outperformed paper assets. What does this indicate? It shows that when systemic risk arrives, physical assets regain their pricing power.
The recent turbulence in the crypto market also reflects this same logic — the market is re-evaluating what true value is. Smart money is shifting from virtual assets to physical assets. Silver is quietly starting to move, gold is gathering strength. The underlying issue of the debt crisis is the main thread that will determine the overall situation.
Are you going to continue holding the helm of the old era, or are you ready to jump onto the deck of the new trend?

Wake up, has it only appeared three times in 130 years? Is this really different this time, or are we just telling stories again?

I've been paying close attention to the Dow Gold Ratio for a long time; something definitely seems off.

The Dow Jones Gold Ratio is blowing the horn again. We've seen this lesson many times in history. If you believe it again next time, you'll just be a fool.

The 45-year trend line has been broken. This time is truly different. Hold tight to your chips, and don't just focus on the price.

Hmm... a 90% crash sounds really frightening, but will history repeat itself? It feels like it's too grand to discuss this now.
