I'm sad guys
I think this might actually be how humanity ends, not with nuclear war or some massive climate catastrophe but with millions of people sitting at home collecting fiat welfare and gambling on the crypto casino
Gold used to be what drove humans out to explore the frontiers and break the boundaries of the known world
just imagine if Gold was priced at $50,000 an ounce, we'd be mining the deep-sea and spending hundreds of billions on trying to mine asteroids and the technology we'd develop along the way would allows to colonize other planets
without Gold free from manipulation what even is there to rouse our expansion?

Gold is created only once every 10,000 years in the Milky Way when two neutron stars crash into each other, causing a kilonova and spewing out God's money across the universe for us to strive for but everyone is just sitting in their basement and "mining" magic internet beans while masturbating to hentai
sad
