I concur, Chris is not a scientist but he does make good points in some of his other articles. He must be extremely confident in this analysis, predictions like this generally just prove the stupidity/hubris of the predictor.

Newsmax link? Uhhhhh...not particularly credible source, there.
Is this reporter just making shit up? S&P chart tops around 1500 in 2000. Tops around 1500 again in 2007. It is currently around 1930, which is significantly higher than that other double top.
Well the third top shouldnt be exactly as the previous two, but in general view, the graph in fact is seeing very similar on the two previous tops. Speaking about time and percentajes.

US market collapse? US&Europe market collapse? In real terms it has already collapsed, in nominal terms it may even increase more

The article did not say much about why he thinks this triple top is inevitable, will watch the video later. I am more interested in his argument than whether it will come true.

People believing in economic doomsday scenarios, are always saying that the doomsday is just a couple of months away. They’ve been wrong for many years. Why should I start believing them now, when they’ve already proven numerous times that their “predictions” are worthless, based on nothing but wishful thinking and clever tricks to sell prepper books, precious metals, survivalist supplies and cryptocurrencies?
Anyway, even if something bad were to happen soon:
Banks can collapse and oil can be depleted. Work will still get done. People will still have jobs and exchange goods and services.
People are adaptable. They innovate. They find solutions to their problems. They always have, and they always will. Knowhow, technical skills and the power of innovation doesn’t suddenly disappear just because oil is slowly depleting, banks are failing or unemployment numbers are rising.
And Bitcoin won't go to the Moon anyway. It's going down to a more sustainable level than the current one.

The bubble has been collapsing since 2006, they are just pulling something that resembles a controlled collapse in front of our faces. Sit back and enjoy the fireworks.

The article has an interesting quote though: At one point in the interview, Wiedemer even calls out Bernanke, saying that his “money from heaven will be the path to hell.”

Does anyone really truly know if the Bitcoin price is directly tied with the USD? What happens if the USD collapses completely?

Bitcoin had not lived any USD collapse yet, so noone cant tell you. It did not lived many other things either.

In this context, how credible is this Jim Rickards guy ? His series "the dead of money" paint a grim picture of global economy on short terms. See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KYW5OGWfqJc

Well maybe Jim is not a scientist but he seems to know what he's talking about, in that case a serious collapse on short term is not that far fetched, not to say inevitable. I wonder if my BTC stash can somewhat protect my net worth in case the sh*t hits the rotary impeller....

So was he right? Or just like the guy that predicted bitcoin $10 by first half of 2014?

Bitcoin had not lived any USD collapse yet, so noone cant tell you. It did not lived many other things either. A USD collapse should be great for Bitcoin's price and the FED will not let the market go down or not help the government pay its liabilities, it will print like there is no tomorrow
