No because the value of crypto is measured in FIAT, thus once FIAT collapses, guess what, your crypto is also worthless. Anyone who says otherwise is retarded and coping.

if the dollar hyperinflates you can sell for euros or GBP or any other currency that is currently not crashing and burning in value.........


Also it just means the value of the dollar goes down not that of the token itself.

That's what a job is for, retard. What a fucking retard. Nocoiners are pathetic. Sad you didn't make any gains? You're going to die poor for being too much of a pussy to invest.
Worst case scenario, I store my btc into something like celsius network to gain a source of passive income. Never selling unless bitcoin's bullrun is cleary ending, though this time does seem different and not just because of big money coming in. Looks different because the general consensus seems to be to hold it since the dollar is fucking dying and btc is a hedge.
Also, crypto will eventually probably be used as a way to make payments for shit anyways if fiat really does go completely to shit. It's already a thing in certain places. Tesla accepts bitcoin payments for instance. Eventually it will become the norm. Cope harder. You won't survive the new world

I'm looking to buy stocks into silver mining companies, but most of these companies are based in Canada. It was suggested that Canada would be the first to hit hyperinflation. Is there a good alternative next to physical silver? I've read that iShares have their physical silver locked up in the UK. I don't know if it's a dangerous environment for a mining company when their country's financial system collapses. Anyone has some thoughts on this?

Depending on how severe of a collapse we are talking, some chains can be 51% attacked or ground to a halt as nodes go down for economic reasons and attackers realize there's only a handful of nodes left to attack.
Crypto will shine brightest when it gets a little dark, but if it gets too dark, it'll be worthless because its not physically tangible.

Are you going to send people btc? If everyone on the planet made one (1) transaction with Bitcoin that would take over 34 years. Btc can only handle 7 tps. The mempool will get clogged and your funds will be frozen for years.

I also don't know exactly what would be used as a real currency since there are different ideas people throw around. You wouldn't use gold to buy shit. It's main usage is being a hedge against the dollar too and basically a store of value. Even though bitcoin is actually a better version of gold, doesn't mean gold will die. It's just another competitor that has arisen as hard money. By your logic, if bitcoin dies because it will become useless, so would gold. I don't see that happening.

Of course gold would be used to buy shit, the reason this is unthinkable to you is because we've been off the gold standard for 50 years, you have no concept of anything apart from the fiat standard
>It's main usage is being a hedge against the dollar
Its not a hedge against the dollar, its the final reserve currency of the entire world and when the dollar goes away gold will be used in its stead
>bitcoin is actually a better version of gold
NO. Bitcoin is a liability, not money. The Bitcoin network needs constant work input in the form of electricity and hashing power, without that constant input Bitcoin will wither, become unusable and open itself up to attacks. Currently the network is funded through inflation at 900 btc per day and tx fees at 100 btc per day, but once we reach the hard cap 100% of the networks security has to be financed through 7 impossibly expensive transactions each second. If those transactions and their fees are not enough to secure the network btc becomes worthless. Its as though you had an ounce of gold that required constant polishing or else it would fail.
Btc also cannot be used as a currency, which gold can. Being usable as a currency is the MINIMUM requirement for a reserve currency.

The chemical properties and functional scarcity of Gold that make it useful as a store of value when large groups of people agree that it's valuable are extremely closely analogous to the cryptographic properties of BTC that make it similarly valuable when large groups of people form a similar agreement to treat it as valuable.

The scarcity is analagous, thats true. BUT you need some real world use in tandem with that scarcity to make a truly stable store of value. Everyone always gets hung up on what the specific uses are- electronics and jewelry- but that doesnt necessarily matter. As long as there is some need, the scarcity takes care of the rest. Now, I do think that crypto has a use in that it can be used to buy illegal shit on the darkweb. But that is highly circumstantial. With gold, even if collapse erases the demand for electronics and jewelry, me and everyone else knows that gold lasts forever and that at SOME POINT in the future, someone will want it.

Huh? Why are you trying so hard to imagine this weird strawman scenario where BTC and USD are a person's only holdings, the Dollar literally collapses into tinder for starting fires overnight, and the pantry and fridge are both empty and your stomach is already growling? Fucking kek, and you think your solution to that weird overnight doomsday is going to be to walk into a grocery store and start explaining what a "mercury dime" is to the cashier and why they should accept it?

BTC is retaining value and going up as more people take an interest in it for storing value. USD is declining in value as mismanagement of it goes up, but it's still functioning right now, and a technological arms-race to see who can come up with the most useful crypto replacement for its day-to-day use is well underway - its day-to-day replacement is most likely already online, right now, just waiting for us all to turn to it piece by piece as we gradually get more and more sick of the USD's shit. It's really not going to be that difficult to navigate for anyone with a little bit of foresight. But what do you honestly think is going to be easier and offer more yield, trading chunks of bitcoin for whatever LiquidCoin takes over the market, or figuring out where to mail your weird dimes to get some?

no, they are not
blockchains cannot be scaled without sacrificing decentralization and security and they cannot be decentralized and secure without sacrificing scalability
>"Transaction throughput and transaction confirmation latency are two most talked-about performance metrics of blockchain and both of them have not reached a satisfactory level in recent popular blockchain systems [5], which leads to the bad user’s quality of experience. However, compared with the centralized payment system like banks, these two metrics cannot be improved easily in blockchain, a self-regulating system, that needs more considerations in order to maintain decentralization. After numerous studies on the particularities of blockchain, some researchers raise the view of Blockchain Trilemma [6]. Similar to the CAP theory [7] in the traditional field of the distributed system, the Blockchain Trilemma points out that three important properties of a blockchain system, involving decentralization, security, and scalability, cannot perfectly co-exist. For instance, considering a simplified circumstance, adding a centralized coordinator into the system can reduce the consumption (e.g. computational resources consumed by proof-of-work [8]) for all users in the system to reach consensus on a set of transactions. Another example, shortening the block interval of Bitcoin can increase the transaction throughput but also affects the security of the whole system because of the increasing probability of fork. Therefore, balancing or even achieve these three aspects of blockchain system well is essential for the future development of blockchain that is suitable for more complex and larger-scale scenes in our daily lives."

What? This is literally the exact opposite of what I'm suggesting, and is exactly why BTC is retaining and will continue retaining value as longer-term wealth storage. It's the coin that's already well-established and acknowledged as secure, and will be readily tradeable for whatever daily-driver coin eventually rises to the top - and its status as well-established and known-secure will preserve its status in the ecosystem as a long-term wealth storage into the future, too.

I feel like this is the biggest fud against goldbug boomerism that will never be undermined tbdesu. Precious metals are perfectly fine and functional as hedges against inflation in a more or less functioning economy, but all of their anti-crypto fud boils down to post-apoc doomsday scenarios that would render gold and silver equally worthless. They try to argue for precious metals by laying out the case for homesteading and hoarding guns and preserved food.

If trade more or less continues into the future, crypto stays relevant (if not moreso) - even Africans can manage it in the void left by their dysfunctional governments, after all. If trade dies, your shiny rocks are useless and you should have traded them for more bullets and chickens while you still could, retard.

And that's not even getting into other weird contingencies where crypto actually clearly comes out on top, like how easy it would be to take crypto with you if you had to flee a collapsing country.

Really all you can do is hold some crypto and physical assets. I would never start trading for other currencies because there's 10 times more risk involved. Those other currencies should only be used for small day-to-day transactions otherwise you risk them crashing too if their host country fires up the money printers or if people switch to a new preferred currency, thus making yours obsolete and lowering its value.

when I give someone gold in exchange for goods or services there is no middleman, I simply hand it to them
if I want to make online transactions I would gladly trade a small amount of gold for something like something like Bitcoin Cash, I would then immediately make by transaction using Bitcoin Cash, I would not use it as a store of value because of the big risk of a 51% attack on a blockchain with such a large block size
I would never use Bitcoin to store value because it's a 'store of value' that cannot be reliably called upon - there's a big risk of my funds being frozen when I need them and I would never use Bitcoin just to transact because the tx fees are too high

crypto doesn't work well as SoV's, they only work well as risky (risk is very relative, especially with fiat being mismanaged) services that transfer an arbitrary amount of value from point a to point b
that value then has to be taken out and placed into something which is a true store of value and can be called upon at a moments notice with no risk of being frozen (gold)

Americans still have the tattered remains of their precious 2nd amendment. If and when shit hits the fan, in a hyper inflationary scenario, we must consider the 1776 option - destroy the Federal reserve and tyrannical goverment by force.

"the tree of liberty must be watered from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants" - Thomas Jefferson

Also, who the fuck sells Bitcoin LOL. Few understand what's being built. If you needed income couldn't you stake your assets for a certain APY?

Scalability is something I don't think BTC or ETH will ever be able to solve. But maybe that's ok if their communities prefer decentralization and security over scalability.

Also, the day when there is no more BTC to mine is a hundred+ years away. Wouldn't be a factor in a hyper inflation scenario in the next 50 years even.

If the market needed an alternative to shit FIAT I think people would begin to favor secure and decentralized coins like BCH, BSV, DGB, etc that have far better tx/s rates than BTC. There would probably be a period of time where no single reserve currency exists (e.g. Everyone uses gold or everyone uses crypto x), but people will find a way to get paid in non-FIAT, transact in non-FIAT, save in non-FIAT, and invest in assets using non-FIAT.

Let me tell you a story. There once was a farm that belonged to Mr. Jones. One night, the exalted boar, Old Major, holds a conference, at which he calls for the overthrow of humans When Old Major dies, two young pigs, Snowball and Napoleon, assume command and stage a revolt, driving Mr. Jones off the farm and renaming the property "Animal Farm".

They adopt the Seven Commandments of Animalism, the most important of which is, "All animals are equal". The decree is painted in large letters on one side of the barn. Snowball teaches the animals to read and write, while Napoleon educates young puppies on the principles of Animalism. To commemorate the start of Animal Farm, Snowball raises a green flag with a white hoof and horn. Food is plentiful, and the farm runs smoothly. The pigs elevate themselves to positions of leadership and set aside special food items, ostensibly for their personal health. Following an unsuccessful attempt by Mr. Jones and his associates to retake the farm (later dubbed the "Battle of the Cowshed"), Snowball announces his plans to modernise the farm by building a windmill. Napoleon disputes this idea, and matters come to head, which culminate in Napoleon's dogs chasing Snowball away and Napoleon declaring himself supreme commander.

>> No.29678384

Napoleon enacts changes to the governance structure of the farm, replacing meetings with a committee of pigs who will run the farm. Through a young porker named Squealer, Napoleon claims credit for the windmill idea, claiming that Snowball was only trying to win animals to his side. The animals work harder with the promise of easier lives with the windmill. When the animals find the windmill collapsed after a violent storm, Napoleon and Squealer persuade the animals that Snowball is trying to sabotage their project and begin to purge the farm of animals Napoleon accuses of consorting with his old rival. When some animals recall the Battle of the Cowshed, Napoleon (who was nowhere to be found during the battle) gradually smears Snowball to the point of saying he is a collaborator of Mr. Jones, even dismissing the fact that Snowball was given an award of courage while falsely representing himself as the main hero of the battle. "Beasts of England" is replaced with "Animal Farm", while an anthem glorifying Napoleon, who appears to be adopting the lifestyle of a man ("Comrade Napoleon"), is composed and sung. Napoleon then conducts a second purge, during which many animals who claim to be helping Snowball in plots are executed by Napoleon's dogs, which troubles the rest of the animals. Despite their hardships, the animals are easily placated by Napoleon's retort that they are better off than they were under Mr. Jones, as well as by the sheep's continual bleating of “four legs good, two legs bad”.

Mr. Frederick, a neighbouring farmer, attacks the farm, using blasting powder to blow up the restored windmill. Although the animals win the battle, they do so at great cost, as many, including Boxer the workhorse, are wounded. Although he recovers from this, Boxer eventually collapses while working on the windmill (being almost 12 years old at that point). He is taken away in a knacker's van, and a donkey called Benjamin alerts the animals of this, but Squealer quickly waves off their alarm by persuading the animals that the van had been purchased from the knacker by an animal hospital and that the previous owner's signboard had not been repainted. Squealer subsequently reports Boxer's death and honours him with a festival the following day. (However, Napoleon had in fact engineered the sale of Boxer to the knacker, allowing him and his inner circle to acquire money to buy whisky for themselves.)

Years pass, the windmill is rebuilt, and another windmill is constructed, which makes the farm a good amount of income. However, the ideals that Snowball discussed, including stalls with electric lighting, heating, and running water, are forgotten, with Napoleon advocating that the happiest animals live simple lives. In addition to Boxer, many of the animals who participated in the rebellion are dead or old. Mr. Jones, having moved away after giving up on reclaiming his farm, has also died. The pigs start to resemble humans, as they walk upright, carry whips, drink alcohol, and wear clothes. The Seven Commandments are abridged to just one phrase: "All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others." The maxim "Four legs good, two legs bad" is similarly changed to "Four legs good, two legs better." Other changes include the Hoof and Horn flag being replaced with a plain green banner and Old Major's skull, which was previously put on display, being reburied.

>> No.29678621

Napoleon holds a dinner party for the pigs and local farmers, with whom he celebrates a new alliance. He abolishes the practice of the revolutionary traditions and restores the name "The Manor Farm". The men and pigs start playing cards, flattering and praising each other while cheating at the game. Both Napoleon and Mr. Pilkington, one of the farmers, play the Ace of Spades at the same time and both sides begin fighting loudly over who cheated first. When the animals outside look at the pigs and men, they can no longer distinguish between the two.

It's just more difficult to access and they'll probably choose something like the "digital dollar" they're trying to make (which they probably won't tie to the physical dollar) or even just trading in other currencies like pounds or euros digitally instead of using cryptos. It all comes down to what new thing they adopt and for them cryptos are something obscure and intimidating whereas euros are seen as something new, foreign, and exotic.

i don't think crypto would have value during hyperinflation, unless it could actually be used for transactions, and the transaction fees are simply too high. if energy costs go up, and bitcoin prices don't rise in comparison, then i suspect miners will simply turn off their hardware, and the network will go to shit.

and if crypto doesn't have value during hyperinflation, don't expect it to have any value afterwards. imagine if we had hyperinflation, and gold became worthless...after the hyperinflation was over, no one would value gold as a monetary metal.

true, holding gold is the only way to do it without counterparty risk, but it's really the only financial asset that doesn't have any counterparty risk. if you're okay with counterparty risk, buy something like PSLV or a mining company with land rights.

bitcoin has an enormous amount of counterparty risk, some people just don't realize it. if miners turn off their hardware, your ledger entry is both worthless and useless.
