RE: "It's Been Dismal" - Gold Coin Sales Slump As 'Bugs' Bounce To Bitcoin

in #bitcoin7 years ago

I don’t think that cryptocurrencies will ever replace gold, for a number of reasons. For one, cryptos are strictly forms of currency, whereas gold has many other time-tested applications, from jewelry to dentistry to electronics. Unlike cryptos, gold doesn’t require electricity to trade.
Finally, gold remains one of the most liquid assets, traded daily in well-established exchanges all around the globe.
