As you said it ran to 20k and fell to 3k, now it's back at $12.5k. The 5 year ROI on bitcoin is higher than owning silver for 100 years. Silver price adjusted for inflation is almost exactly where it was 100 years ago in terms of price. I wouldn't compare bitcoin to silver anyway, I would compare it to gold.armati wrote:Cryptos have been interesting, personally I discovered bitcoin at $3 american, it ran to 20 k and dropped to 3k.
We'll see where it goes.
Cryptos are a completely dif animal from silver,
(as far as I know) crypto has no intrinsic value, without silver we go back to the stone age.
cryptos do not meet the criteria for money, the world has used silver money for about 5k years.
1965 gas price 30 cents, 3 dimes,..... today gas price $2-$3 a gallon, 3 1965 dimes today between $1-$2ea = change from your 3 dimes for a gallon of gas.
I agree with you Hitred about owning some silver.
As far as Im concerned its about the most undervalued asset there is right now.

I don't know. Last time I did it, I was twenty-one. Some people take longer to grow up, I guess.riskllama wrote:how old is too old for nose wheelies, Duk?Dukasaur wrote:Aren't you getting a little old for that shit?
And it is completely impossible for banks to do either of these things when you deposit your savings in cash?armati wrote:Still another is to prevent bank account holders from withdrawing cash and possibly triggering runs on banks
...
the fourth big reason is that banks will be free to impose negative interest rates, which is a polite way of saying that they are going to plunder your accounts

How so?armati wrote:

Umm... not to point out the obvious but then why does everyone use paper and not gold/silver as 'money'. Like literally no where but a bank and a pawn shop can i pay for things in silver. It actually fails at multiple things on the list you posted. It isn't convenient at all, and isn't readily 'divisible' either for the average person. No one I know walks around melting bits of silver off a brick and then weighs it to pay for shit. It was an excellent money 5,000 years ago, it isn't anymore. At the end of the day you would just end up converting it to paper money anyway since it's entirely useless for the average person.armati wrote: When you look over this list of Aristotle’s criteria, it becomes clear why gold and silver have taken on the role of money for hundreds of year. Both precious metals are durable, divisible, convenient, consistent, and posses intrinsic value.
It also becomes clear why paper really doesn’t make good money.

Maybe your to young to remember.
Up to 1965/66 in the states gold and silver were used, coins were silver, dollars,50 cent pcs,25 cent pcs and 10 cent pcs, silver was used in daily transactions.
The bills, were certificates that could be exchanged for metal at banks.
PMs work extremely well.
Nixon removed the link to PMs in 1971, notice rising prices since then.
Thats the value of the currency dropping.
ALL, unbacked currency thruout history every where around the world eventually moves to its intrinsic value which is zero.
The only reason you would want it is to pay taxes which you must do as your government has guns.
But other than that it has no value.
Gold is money, silver is arguably money, everything else is currency. And unbacked currencies fall to zero.
Gold requires more currency to purchase now than it ever has in history anywhere, notice the trillions being printed.
Im not saying currencies do not work for business transactions, they do work, until they crash.
But currency is not money.
Bitcoin may go to a million dollars, it could work as currency for a while, but as long as its not backed it will fall to zero eventually.
Just a head up, the world reserve currency changes about every 100 years, its time for a change, nations are dumping the dollar and have been buying tons and tons of gold , central banks have been buying as well.
For some reason they are not buying cryptos. They buy gold. Thats saying something.
The governments around the world are creating their own digital currencies and they may work on the blockchain.
There may end up being no need for bitcoin or any of the other cryptos.
I have no idea but it looks that way to me.
