Nice! I can't wait to get my hands on the Florida series

I guess we're doomed to fail then... I guess we'll see! 😁

Easy, visit goldback.com/where-to-buy-goldbacks to see if any of their retailers are near you. If not you can buy them online and have them shipped to you. Defythegrid.com has low cost fees and shipping. UPMA.org allows you to digitally exchange your dollar for Goldbacks and they'll keep them vaulted at no cost to you. Then you can withdraw from UPMA in the form of Goldbacks or dollars

Thats a great idea

Absolutely. And with dealers like Alpine Gold offering a 0% buy/sell spread it's fairly easy to avoid any premium

@@sgomez8194 No most the businesses are small businesses and franchises but this will change over time. Right now I have several hardware stores near me that except then.

You can use them as currency. But only in the handful of states that recognize them. Which is the states that they make goldbacks for i.e. Utah, wyoming, and a few others. I say too though I. Washington state where I live I would accept payment for contracting services in goldbacks 100%.

Home Depot, no (just like Lowe’s) as it is nationwide and Goldbacks aren’t. However, in places where they are found, Ace Hardware accepts them.

This other video discusses that many business are starting to accept gold payments: "'Florida Is Getting New Gold Currency': State Leading in U.S., Uses New Technology | Jeremy Cordon".

@, there is also a company called GLINT, which Andy is a part owner in, where you can buy gold and use it daily. Stacking Surfer has a video interview with Schectman and the founder of the company.

😂 Understand why premiums are calculated. Get educated. Then comment

5x? I can understand someone claiming 2x but 5x is absurd. And with companies like Alpine Gold offering a 0% buy/sell spread you wouldn't be losing anything during your exchange. Its only a 2x premium if you melt your money... which I wouldn't recommend. What makes it so valuable is that its fractionalized, carries value IN the currency, and they are nearly impossible to counterfeit

You miss the point, the whole point is to be conveniant, you can't spend silver coins just any way, yes they hold their value well but you have to sell them to a coin store normally before you can spend them

@@Tesseract1887 essentially and in all practicality the same can be said with gold backs. Logic: A past gf was Venezuelan and told me when their currency went to dog poop the USD was king. HOWEVER.... cambios (which were everywhere) would 100% take gold and silver as hard currency and change it to Bolivars, USD, Euro, or neighbouring currency. During a financial crisis the exchange businesses and small cambios could cheaply, effectively, and accurately determine purity and authenticity of silver or gold without XRFs and expensive gravity scales. They made their own gravity scales which can be pretty accurate and they would use multiple other tests to assess the silver and gold. As an aside.... the whole narrative about adding value to AGE ect due recognizability is nonsense in a SHTF scenario. I'd say Venezuela is pretty SHTF like (but I guess it could be worse). In Caracas, the cambios would not pay anything extra because of the stamp on the PM regardless if it had an eagle, a maple, or an antelope. Once they authenticated the PM, it was valued at a standard flat silver or gold rate regardless if it was a pure silver ring or an ASE. Why do I say this? If you are stacking silver to help you in a Venezuela, Zimbabwe, Lebanon hyper-inflation, or even a Mad Max situation, then have cheap silver (bars and rounds) where you get as many ounces or fractions for your dollar. If you are stacking in a foreseeable stable society, then have your recognizable sovereign coins. Personally, I have a variety because I do not know what the future holds. However, other than being a collectible, I don't see gold backs as good value.

@@Tesseract1887 silver will do the job equally to gold backs. Gold and silver bullion has been seen in the cambios of Venezuela as an option to the USD after the Bolivar collapse. During economic trauma, certainty is more important than convenience. I can buy more silver junk, rounds, or sovereigns than gold backs for more dollars. In a SHTF scenario, that is what we need....not art

@good2goskee yeah well still missing the point goldbacks aren't meant for nor am I referring to a shtf scenario, goldbacks aren't made for stackers they can be used that way but its not the point

I like your argument. But I respectfully disagree. In the long run GBs will be more accepted in the future IMO. But who know maybe u will be right in 10 years. I’m hedging with both

Thanks for the kind words! I'm crossing my fingers they continue to increase in popularity but they've gone from $300k in circulation to $3.4M in just 5 years so I'm thinking things are trending the right way.

@@pantrypreparedness They sure are

Good thing the premiums on them are less than 100%. Also, the thing about currency is that it changes hands a lot, and the more hands it changes, the more the premium gets drowned out.

​@caryphillips4885 seriously people are missing the point it is tied to gold but you arent buying it to stack its not the point right now it is spendable but if enough businesses adopt it, it could be quite conveniant and not at all expensive it has to be put into circulation if every business takes it and jsut converts all of it into the usd by selling it to coin shop or something it won't make sense but even then the premiun would decrease, what would help make it more conveniant is if more franchises accepted it and small businesses so it can be recirculated

Really? The USD has a premium of ♾️, yet people have no problem trading that premium

@@BlueBirds-fs1id They only trade the dollar until everyone finds out 99% of the dollar has been devalued, at that point, the goldback may make sense. I would have some in my SHF bag next to the toilet paper, water, cigarettes and alcohol. They will all hold some value.

​@@shaun1258 I agree

@@JohnnyStacker Production costs are high, and labor is expensive. Thus, they lose money on half-goldbacks. Goldbacks have outperformed gold bullion over the last four years!

Premiums are calculated because you lose the premium when selling at melt. GB’s never lose the premium because they never trade at melt. Learn why premiums are calculated, then you will know when they apply

The USD has a ♾️ premium over 1oz Eagles. You can spend GB’s. Gold Eagles are only for stacking and the premium is lost. “Thats what it is”

@BlueBirds-fs1id you can lose 50% of your purchasing power compared to getting bullion. The exchange is the same in any transaction. "Whats gold spot price, how much gold is in what you want to exchange to me for goods or services". I'd never accept someone trying to pay me with gold saying "actually this gold is worth 100% more than bullion because a private company says so". Get coins instead

@@BlueBirds-fs1id exactly

@ It must be hard for you to accept you’re wrong. Junk silver was minted with half the silver value to Face, yet was spent at face, and was accepted by everyone. Strike 1 Goldbacks are accepted everyday at exchange by thousands of businesses and will only increase. Strike 2 Every metal backed currency in history was minted at “high premiums” to discourage melting it. The facts are not your friends. Sorry buddy 👋

@@BlueBirds-fs1id NICE 👍 😁

I love that idea

Thank you! Stay tuned for more Goldback content

Yes!

We love them. Can't wait for them to come out with an Idaho series

Thank you! More to come soon

❤

@@mtake100Where did you get your number? Did you conduct a study or something? I have watched a bunch of RUclips channels testing it out, and they found that 40% of small businesses would take it. I had many great experiences spending them last year. A few years ago, it was pretty rough. Definitely not 99.99%

Wealth you can hold! ❤

@@mtake100 You crypto guys live on hopeium. The rest of the world is buying gold. Bitcoin and all crypto will implode. Gold has been money for over 5,000 years. Crypto is a blip on the radar. Gold is money, everything else is credit.

@@mtake100 I accept the Goldback at my business. A lot of my friends are taking them now too. Did not see a lot of customers at first but I see A LOT more especially the last six months. Reasons we decided to take them: -goldback users give my business priority over my competitors -goldback users are less price-conscious, and also tend to be a more reliable trustworthy understanding type of person --goldback we take as pavment appreciate in value (against fiat currencies) on average (no guarantees) -support the goldback community in our efforts to liberate humanity from the evils of fiat currency.

If the battery is too low, these jumpstarters will not send power. It's a safety feature so that if you accidentally touch the leads together, they will not arc out. It requires a certain amount of voltage from the car battery to give the jump starter a signal to then start sending power. The VTOMAN has the "Boost" button that allows you to bypass the safety and send power no matter what. It's handy in cases like this where the car battery is so depleted.

I see what ya did there

😂
