BTC - Standard of Living Benchmarker
OVERVIEW
Most traders track their wealth in USD or EUR — currencies that are structurally designed to lose value. This is a "Money Illusion." To understand if you are truly becoming wealthier, you must measure your Bitcoin not against fiat, but against the Standard of Living assets you eventually want to buy.
The Standard of Living Benchmarker is a macro-ratio engine that swaps the denominator of your chart. It answers the only question that matters for long-term wealth: "Is my Bitcoin stack gaining ground against the real world?"
THE "Stuff" BENCHMARKS
I have pre-selected four critical pillars of a high standard of living (that can be switched/cycled in the settings window):
• Gold: The historical baseline for "Hard Money" (TVC:GOLD).
• Equities: The primary engine of global productivity (S&P 500).
• Real Estate: Measured via the Vanguard Real Estate ETF (VNQ).
• Energy: The fundamental cost of human progress (Crude Oil).
THE CORE CALCULATION
The calculation is a simple, non-manipulated ratio:
• The Formula: Ratio = BTC_Price / Asset_Price
• This means: We are looking at the direct barter-rate between Bitcoin and the asset. For example, when the "Energy" mode is selected, the chart doesn't show dollars; it shows exactly how many Barrels of Oil one single Bitcoin can buy at today's close.
THE LIFESTYLE BASKET (The 5th Denominator)
Individual ratios tell you how Bitcoin is doing against one asset, but life isn't lived in a single asset. To solve this, I introduced the Lifestyle Basket.
What is a "Lifestyle Share"? A synthetic "Life Token" that represents a diversified slice of human prosperity. It is an equal-weighted basket consisting of:
• 25% Gold (Inflation Hedge)
• 25% S&P 500 (Global Growth)
• 25% Real Estate (Shelter)
• 25% Crude Oil (Energy/Consumption)
HOW TO READ THE CHART
• How to interpret the ratio: If the dashboard shows that 1 BTC buys 50 Lifestyle Shares, it means your Bitcoin stack has the purchasing power to acquire 50 equal units of the world's most critical assets.
• The Purchasing Power Line (Orange): When this line moves UP, Bitcoin is outperforming the real world. You are getting "wealthier" in a tangible sense. When it moves DOWN, your Bitcoin is losing purchasing power against that specific asset class.
• The Opportunity Zones: We plot a 200-day Mean with Standard Deviation bands.
• Upper Band (Red): Bitcoin is historically "Expensive" compared to the asset. This has historically been a high-probability zone to swap BTC for "Stuff" (Real Estate, Gold, etc.).
• Lower Band (Green): Bitcoin is "Cheap" compared to the asset. This is the zone where "Stuff" should be sold to acquire more Bitcoin.
WHY THIS IS "FRESH"
Unlike standard indicators that use RSI or MACD to find price momentum, this is a Macro-Audit. It ignores the noise of the US Dollar and focuses on the Ratio of Reality. It allows the "Infinite Hodler" to know when they are overextended in Bitcoin and when it is mathematically time to diversify into hard real-world assets.
