Silver has an industrial use case and we are running out.

What the fuck is the point of gold over Bitcoin?

Gold is real savings and real money.

Been that way for thousands of years.

Life didn't start existing when you were born OP.

Say it in your head..... gold is real
Savings.

Again... gold is real savings. The Jew and shitty govt controlled public schools have brainwashed you otherwise

Are you all actually retarded? Gold has real use.

Gold has industrial value too

Until it wasn't.

Gold has little to no industrial use case, is hard to move, hard to store, hard to transport, just sits in vaults and accumulates through inflation.

Meanwhile BTC is easy to store (could store it in your head) easy to send anywhere on Earth, and as long as civilization doesn't completely collapse just as durable (in this case gold would also lose it's worth next to ammo). Also it's mathematically fixed in price so no devaluation of value through mining can occur

Silver actually has industrial value and we are running out of it rapidly, so unlike gold and BTC it's actually *deflationary* as opposed to just inflationary or neutral

The usecases justify a fraction of its value. It's history usecase became history with the invention of internet.
Cryptos do have a bottom - criminal activity. They can never go 0 because of this.
So both have a bottom and a speculative value.
So

It is rare

People like to look at it

It has value in every civilization

It is physical

It does not corrode

It has no function but it gets more and more industrial use every year (electronics, medicine)

I like all three : gold, silver, cryptos...they all have their own special value...
We should unite stackers and cryptolovers
The common enemy is fiat...without fiat all three above will prosper

BTC is not valuable, just because something is scarce and digital doesn't make it valuable. I can write code right now that is only available to a select number of people, I can send it to anyone I want over the internet, that doesn't mean it's worth anything.

It has an enormous amount of electricity backing it, more than the wattage of entire nations.

Bitcoin is literally backed by the most precious resource on Earth: electricity. More valuable than silver gold and oil combined

Gold has a magical pixie dust force field called "value". It's a metaphysical quality that means it's inherently what everything is measured by. It's made of dreams and unicorn farts & will cure /biz/ of cancer.

Explain the process where I can convert my Bitcoin BACK INTO ELECTRICITY please. Share with all of us please how this can be done.
