He always talks about some intrinsic value, if gold actually fell down to its intrinsic value of jewelry/electronics it wouldn't be worth 10% of the current price, might as well be worth nothing. BTC has a clear value proposition, immutable store of value and transactions.

Gold has some uses in semiconductor production and for spaceships. But, it also has high value because it's intrinsically supply-capped.

Just like Bitcoin - blockchain can be used as a data structure in software applications as a decentralized immutable ledger. But it's intrinsic value is in the fact that it's supply capped.

>> No.14411111

>>14411051
True. However, the reason it’s valued is not due to its electrical conductivity, rather it’s due to its scarcity, which is a property bitcoin also has. Therefore the property that makes gold valuable is the reason bitcoin is also valuable.

One thing I don’t understand about the valuation of gold is that it has the highest stock to flow ratio of any commodity so it’s obviously not scarce or running out anytime soon. Yet that doesn’t seem to be preventing a gold boom in the last 20yrs

Jewelry is only valuable because gold is valued. It's a status symbol. You cna get the same aesthetic appearance from other materials. So one cannot even use jewelry as a use value for gold, it's circular reasoning.

Inherently worthless, and in time the price will reflect that
A good way to make quick money if you aren’t a retard who thinks BitCoin is going to 100k
If people here had actually invested $16,000 into BitCoin when it hit $3,200 and sold them all when they hit $12,200 they could made 45k but they got greedy again
Precious Metals and Cryptocurrencies are different types of investments but ultimately long term gold IS superior to BitCoin, and Silver will be superior to gold

>> No.14411530

>>14411478
and other precious metals and gems also of course.

So the value comes from scarcity + aesthetics. Aesthetics can be replicated by cheaper materials and tastes in fashion are flippant. It's really just scarcity and status. Which Bitcoin replicates because it carries its own status for the techie/finance crowd.

If you change consensus rules, then you have a separate network. It has no relation to the other network and ultimately has zero value. Your network will be worthless, unless you can convince people to mine for your network. There is only a finite number of miners in existence, therefore they can either mine for the original network, or your network. In theory, your fork should be valued at the % of hashing power stolen from the original network * price at the time of the fork. The token supply of the original network does not increase. In fact it can never increase. The protocol is set in stone. However, the security of the network may decrease, because of a redistribution of hashing-power. The value in bitcoin is not only linked to the currency supply, but also the network security.
