Will the Bitcoin stock-to-flow model stand its first test?

In this post:

Bitcoin priced in Gold (BTCXAU) is currently at its lowest point in four years according to Plan B’s stock-to-flow model creator. This is not entirely good news for Gold if BTC doesn’t see a post-halving price rally.

The statement reads:

bitcoin priced in gold (BTCXAU) …at its lowest level in 4 years. Stock-to-flow suggests BTC or gold.

According to a tweet by Plan B on the 18th of April 2020.

However, the stock-to-flow model still faces a lot of criticism because it only takes supply into consideration, leaving out demand. It remains to be seen if the stock-to-flow model bitcoin prediction will eventually turn out to be the case come 2021.
