He was right about the crash in '08 and that was it. BTC's market cap is bigger than Visa and Mastercard's combined, it's never going to go to $0.
Silver and Gold have been around and used as money for 5 or 6000 years and you'll never see anyone throw Gold or Silver away on purpose....if you dig up some old coins a few hundred years old you are probably sitting on a fortune. Anyone that has made money on bitcoin or other digital currencies congratulations....I say congratulations but be cautious as they have not passed the 5000 year test or 20 years for that matter. Digital holdings can be erased with a click of a button or forgetting a password and the government can take control of it with a click of a button.....but Silver and Gold you can hide it very easily just don't take a phone with you when you go dig the hole.
The government can seize all your assets if they please, but the blockchain can not be hacked as of yet. If you hold your crypto in cold storage: ledger or hardware wallet, it can't be touched. Yes you can forget you password and never get your money out, but that's on you. You can also forget where you buried your gold lol.
I guess I'm just old school....I like sticking with the Constitution Article 1 Section 10 nothing but Gold and Silver....its possible I might forget where I buried it lol but not likely. Its been money for 5 or 6 thousand years and will always be money.....Silver is needed in 104 mostly industrial uses including Solar Panels, electric cars, satellites, all things high tech....our infrastructure doesn't run without it as it is the #1 conductor of electricity. I'm just saying it is a sound investment......I hope everyone on this board makes a killing with Bitcoin but I just don't see how we can trust digital things.....especially since everything we use is now made in China. I'm not trusting China with my digital wealth...I'm sure they have backdoor access to everything they make. I've had my computer crash too many times and lost too many emails......they say the internet is forever but its only been around 30 or so years. I trust my shovel more than the internet.
