Canada Has By Vote, Become Officially Communist.
BREAKING NEWS
At a vote of 185 to 151, the DemoLibs of Canada have successfully made their PM TruDope a Communist Dictator by agreeing to formally vote in his “Emergency Powers”! God bless the Conservative people of Canada, and have no mercy on the Communists that have allowed Tyranny to overthrow their country. Stand tall America. Russia, Brazil, a handful of other countries, and we are all that stand against the World Economic Forum. And We Will Win.
You can store your keys using a hardware wallet and can transact peer to peer offline (though VERY complicated) so there’s some hard assets for ya, although, if you asked me if I rather have precious metals over crypto, I’d obviously take the precious metals
Honestly I think bullets are the best currency in SHTF scenario. Easy to trade with and also has useful value and is shelf stable.
This. Ammo and Liquor will be worth more than any precious metal in a real SHTF scenario. Ask anyone that was a part of or went through the Bosnia fiasco.
Bullet, tobacco, toilet paper.
Weed.
If you live where it's legal get growing and stock up. Throughout history cannabis has always been a valued commodity. It even exists without electricity like a valid currency should.
Yup. And making alcohol as well.
Booze & tobacco.
I've been stockpiling boxes of Bic lighters.
With correct materials you can make your own as well
Get a Jackery Portable Power Station Explorer 300 and Solar Panel for $600.
You can now power an entire computer workstation and charge other people's devices off the grid.
Battery fully charged lasts a good 4 hours.
Won't do heating elements though.
Each person in the transaction would need the knowledge and supplies to perform and verify this transaction with crypto.
With physical assets you literally just hand the person.
I’m seeing benefits to Bitcoin (assuming what I’ve been told about it is true) but it is not going to be a SHTF currency
Silver or Gold isn't going to be a SHTF currency either. In a trade society, you trade usable goods or services.
However if there is a medium of exchange, it would need to be agreed upon between both parties. When SHTF, you would really think, deep deep down, that you would much rather trade for food/supplies instead of Gold/Silver.
I’ll agree with that. Thinking about it I’d rather have the stuff you Mentioned than gold/silver. It would take years to establish trades based off of gold/silver currency
And what good does that do you without power?
