Gold IRA Rollover - Tax implications for high net worth?

Been seeing a lot of chatter lately about Gold IRA rollovers, and it's making me wonder if there's anything new for guys like us with substantial portfolios. I've had a significant portion of my retirement diversified into physical gold and silver through a Gold IRA for years now – we're talking a decent chunk, probably north of a million just in the metals, on top of the other investments in my 5M+ portfolio. Based out of Scottsdale, and as an entrepreneur, I'm always looking at the angles, especially when it comes to preserving wealth and minimizing tax exposure.
My initial rollover several years back from a traditional IRA was pretty straightforward, but I’ve heard whispers of people getting hit with unexpected taxes due to technicalities, especially when dealing with such large sums. Is there anything specific from a high net worth standpoint that I should be double-checking if I were to consider another rollover, or even rebalancing within my existing Gold IRA? I’m thinking things like aggregation rules for RMDs, or any new reporting requirements that might catch someone off guard. My custodian has been solid, but it never hurts to get outside perspectives from folks who are actually in the trenches.
Anyone here with similar portfolio sizes gone through a recent Gold IRA rollover or even a trustee-to-trustee transfer? What were your experiences with the tax implications? Any horror stories or even best practices to avoid unnecessary headaches? Always appreciate the collective wisdom here.
