RE: GOLD: Fire Insurance For Currencies Already Burning To The Ground12 Dec 2020 07:28
Bitcoin has a long way to go to replace gold. Not arguing that virtual currencies won’t have their place and certainly with the infinite money that can be printed these days, it’s hard to not see them devaluing hugely. However, for investors, Gold is tangible, it has finite resource and that is what drives value (amongst other things of course). It’s been that way for centuries.
Fundamental economics is going to struggle short term to accommodate something like Bitcoin that is not well understood, hugely used for speculative investment, not tangible and has to be “mined”
