They're only worth anything because you can physically hold them.

Cope

>>56523753

Eeek.

>>56523753
nope, shiny rocks are worthless.

>>56523776
Cope about what? In any post-apocalypse scenario you're envisioning where we'd exchange your gold for my food or whatever, I'd rather just kill you for your supplies and skip the negotiation part.

>>56523885
kek you'd be hanged as an example of being that anti-social retard that tried to kill others and steal they're supplies

>>56523885
You won't have the legal system to protect you when a group of vigilantes finds you

>>56523980
lol you probably think bitcoin would be useful in such a society without electricity and internet too

>>56523753
A good delivery bar is slightly bigger than that. No they were never practical

>>56523753
Yes you can throw them
Eat them
Hold them
Look at them
Put a leash on them and drag them
Many usecases
Much more than bitcoin

>>56523776
If I visit you, would you give me a gold bar please? Just one.

>>56523753
only useful for debtmaxxxing and exiting ones shithole regime. holding onto it is stupid.

>>56523776
How much worth of gold is that? If I was rich I'd get a stack of gold bars for the living room or something.

buy these in gold and silver and only use these to buy things and if people don't accept them use the f slur

>>56523885
>gold is worthless
>I'll kill you to take it
Which one is it, retard?

>>56523885
Wouldn't that violate the NAP?

>>56523776
Funny thing is the wood would break if you somehow lifted that

>>56523753
Gold is pollen from the giant flowers of supernovas. Practical enough to wear and feel differently. Practical enough to split into little bars to exchange for fiat currency worldwide.

>>56524838
is gold a "supply", retard?

>>56523753
The Central Banks of the world are buying gold at historic rates and they are not making earrings. Paper weights maybe?

>>56524838

>dude stockpiling stuff you need is pointless, ill just risk my life every day and become a criminal to try and steal it instead

>>56523776
Nice stash. What’s the estimated resale value of this box? Question I have is, what is a coin shop willing to pay per oz of gold and or silver? I got some bullion I’ve stashed away years ago

What's the feasibility of buying your own mine? Even if it's a small one. Like buying some land in alaska and digging around for ore. Is there a pmg guide for this?

>>56526500
well most people dont dig for ore, they pan for it or search cracks in rocks along rivers. And you can do that on public land or even in some cases on private land you dont own (as long as its not fenced off). You can actually find quite a bit doing this

it is precisely worthless when the circumstances change and it is you and a pile of gold vs a thief with a gun. like i said earlier, gold is not something for a person to hold. you are not living in a pre-2009 world where bitcoin was not invented yet.

>>56526585
why is a thief stealing my worthless gold, what does he plan to do with it?
where is my gun?
why am i living in a hypothetic scenario that doesnt make sense???

>DUMBFUCK boomer orders gold off internet with full kyc or even buys it in a brick and motor with ID

>>56523753
>here's your coffee sir, that'll be $4.95 please
>sure i'll just pay with one of these shiny gold bars, thanks
>um, sir, we can't accept your shiny gold bars as payment
>but, wait, what do you mean? they told me gold is real money!

>>56526612
i said its circumstances, nigger. the gold has value only to those that can secure it. your average boomer is so vulnerable and unable to secure his shit and becomes a huge target once anyone knows he has bought it.

>>56526649
so... gold is worthless because you could get killed buying mcdonalds and then squatters would wait at your house for 20 years

am i getting this right

and those meds, have you taken them?

>>56526729
yup. the number of people that are capable of this is much higher than the number of people that can coerce a seedphrase out of someone that knows their shit.

>>56526764
God damn you're stupid.

>>56526812
u can archive this now

>>56523776
youre going to feel retarded for now swapping half of that for LINK
each of those bars was worth ~10k LINK a few months ago
I estimate about 10 x 8 x 5
literally
4 million LINK
in this picture.
whoever holds this gold will do well but will want to kill themselves for not buying LINK

>>56523753
I can't pay in a restaurant with a gold bar, so I'd rather hold BTC that I can easily pay with via crypto cards like the CryptMi card

I think this is one of the few crypto cards that is still working in Europe.

Bitcoin?nigger I got gold

>>56526653
A silver half dollar blocks your path

>>56524838
Desu

>>56524740
quick shitty count:
500 1KG gold bars -> around 30 million $

>>56523753
i just like looking at my gold/silver tbqh i havent even checked the price in like a year

>>56523753
>Are they still practical in modern times?

Yeah, I'm sure you can just scratch a few splinters off of a gold bar and pay your groceries with it, totally practical.

>>56523753
the problem is they can be detected with metal detectors by burglars and stolen without a trace

banks cannot be trusted either

so might as well buy paper gold?

>>56526500

Thanks for playing.

You know its one nigga running a node in a faraday cage with solar panels. Bitcoin can't fully die at this point.
