    These newbies to the market forget how sloppy and Wild West the whole technology Market was back at the turn of the century. people scoffed at the imperfections in the internet.. and the tech industry. They were sure that it would never be viable... think of all the failed IPOs in the tech industry! Cryptocurrencies are only about 10 years old
    we're just at the very beginning. Innovation is going to happen the next 20 or 30 years you won't recognize the crypto-currency market. People need to be patient! We're not even in the early adopter phase of the crypto-currency market. We're in the Innovation stage. The Innovation stage is really early! I bought my first Apple II e back around 1985. It's a relic. Look what we produced in the last 35 years in the tech industry. Cryptocurrencies are in the same boat for God's sake! We're just at the beginning enjoy the ride!

    The fact that people are trying to get gold holders to sell into bitcoin tells you all you need to know. If gold was the scam it would be the other way around. People might buy bitcoin - but they're not going to sell off their gold.
    You can't even *mine* bitcoin without gold - or spend it without gold, the entire information economy is dependent on precious metals like copper, silver, and gold.

    Barry confuses the value of Bitcoin with value in general. Bitcoin, or possibly some other cryptographic asset, is definitely the future medium of exchange for things of value; but what is intrinsically valuable will always be the same and what is valuable is also tangible: like real estate or gold.

  • @boatonthedock

    We should ask, "Why does the "short interest" in Bitcoin continue to rise with the price increase? Have not yet felt enough pain from the bleeding?
    Hmm.. or maybe... Imagine the players on Wall Street waiting for the infrastructure and regulation to set in place for their full participation in the best-performing asset class of the century. Well, maybe if I were a large institutional player waiting on the sidelines, and I notice that retail investors are fronting a surge in interest & price for bitcoin, and if I could afford to sit on an underwater short position, then I might effectively be able to manipulate the price at a future time to scare newcomers away to maybe tip the scales, in order to delay or hold back prices until entry - or any number of possible desired outcomes. Especially if I had friends that think the same way

    2 BIG Reasons for Price Rise
    First REASON:
    Fidelity Investment putting in $100 B soon. Price going to USD +20 k for sure. That is why all big game players all over the world are taking positions quickly.
    So do not waste time - make a decision now or you will miss at least 50-80 % return.
    Second REASON:
    Do not forget that at least 3 major ETF applications are lying with SEC of USA (Check details on CNBC site) to be decided in next 2-3 months. All knowledgeable investors know this fact that the decision will be in favor of BTC. SEC is just taking all precautionary measures before making a final decision.
    So take positions NOW or you will have just a big REGRET left with you.

      @@SAL-fs1mr Right, so when you used your fiat to preserve value in physical assets, to digitise those assets you have to sell them to a third party so that any residual value you get left with can be digitised into a virtual assets. So physical possession of precious metals does have potential third party risk, your divulging to a third party that you have precious metals. Your at risk at the moment of exchange into depreciating paper debt promissory notes. I cannot see digital gold taking off unless you can see a daily tariff of exchange in a competitive bricks and mortar banking environment.

    Don't listen to these people hoping you rush in. Bitcoin will dominate world finance one day but it still has 3 colossal hurdles to overcome. If you put your money in now, be ready for a roller coaster ride. .
    1) There are still straight up scam coins in the top 10. Bitcoin and crypto in general can not succeed as long as ponzi schemes like XRP(60% owned by Ripple) and Tether(The joke of the cryptoworld) are still in the top 10. (I am not a financial analyst. I am an android and blockchain developer and have been writing code since Reagan took away funds for youth computer instruction).
    2) The intelligence of the average crypto investor needs to increase dramatically or you will continue to be a pawn for whales and corporations pumping you, dumping you, and retailing you while profiting from your money.
    3) Once bitcoin(and ethereum) catch on with the masses, governments will undoubtedly spend money to attack them both publicly and privately. Some governments will spend billions in vain dos and percent attacks to attempt to crush it's value. They may partially succeed for a time so expect huge swings in price. 20K to 3K is nothing. Wait until you see 500K to 20K then up to a million. Be ready!

      @@AnonYMouse-ky4sg Diversification. You never want to put all of your eggs in one basket. If you're investing in Bitcoin in the first place, then you should also be in gold because it represents the same thing; Real Money. Both Bitcoin and Gold have all of the necessary factors to be a true store of value over time. Durability, Portability, Divisibility, Uniformity, Scarcity, and Acceptability. While Bitcoin is basically the new 'hot' digital form of gold, it doesn't have the history that gold has to stand on. Gold has been the only true form of money for the last 5000 years, and it's held it's value far better than any other form of money. If you're pro-Bitcoin, then you should fundamental be pro gold for the same reasons. Plus, like I said earlier, a smart investor will always diversify their portfolio. And like you said, you can see it right in front of you. It's physical, and that's important too. Digital systems can crash, or be corrupted, hacked over time. Governments can outlaw it, making it difficult to trade, exchange, or even hold it. Other blockchains could superseded it eventually. These are possibilities that need to be considered, even if they are remote.

      IronicTonic So should I also be in silver, diamonds, rubies, emeralds, bronze, platinum, etc. since it's more diversified? The more diversified it is, the better, it is?
      "Gold has been around longer." When people started using gold instead of shells or whatever for money, would the same argument have applied?
      Or could we see gold as the better store of value from the beginning, because it was more scarce and decentralized (as in, not all in one spot for any one person or group of people to control the supply)?
      So if a store of value improves upon what's currently being used, can we assume it will follow a similar adoption curve gold has to shells?
      Say, if something is easier to store, easier to access, easier to divide, easier to transfer, more "scarce" (I like "fixed" more), and its supply is more decentralized?
      5000 or so years ago, would you rather hold the new gold money or the old shell money? Or perhaps diversify?

    • @IronicTonic8
      @IronicTonic8 5 лет назад

      ​@@AnonYMouse-ky4sg I just said to diversify, meaning not putting all of your eggs in one basket. I didn't say to put your money into everything that's shiny.
      My primary statement is to be diversified into 'real money'. There are only a few assets that are classified as real money based on the properties I shared previously. Those asset classes are Gold, Silver, and Bitcoin.
      The comparison you're making to shells vs gold from 5000 years ago is irrelevant. Shells are not, and never will be real money, which is why we saw gold displace 'shells', and any other primitive form of money for the last 5000 years. The fact that Bitcoin is a more convenient store of value and medium of exchange for the modern world does not invalidate the fact that gold is still real money. It just means that, for the first time in history, we have 2 different versions of real money to invest in, digital and physical. That's a good thing.
      Gold will continue to have significant value going forward, and it will see significant appreciation in terms of fiat currency during difficult economic times, the same as BTC. Holding some physical gold, in addition to Bitcoin is a good idea. I'm not saying you need to hold a lot, but I certainly wouldn't recommend having none. However, you can do whatever you want with your own investments if you feel differently.
