RE: Gold Could Be Done As A Store Of Value Within The Next 100 Years

in LeoFinance4 years ago

I thought it might have been a little far fetched as people like gold, it's tangible, shiny, pretty on jewelry and seems to be held in high regard but as someone who used gold coated things at Uni in my own metallurgical work, it's just a metal at the end of the day for me!

However, as you said, with the advancements of technology and shift in thinking to this new digitised world, it will start to make things that we once thought valuable, less so. It will be interesting once the generation shift happens in the workings of the world as companies have more than 50% Gen Y (millenials) and younger population... You might be right there.

That was Taskmaster's position first and foremost but I think he has a point.

Gold has a had a several-thousand-year run as the #1 store of value. But when you consider the composition of the entire solar system and humanity's exponentially growing technological capabilities, I'm inclined to think that its run is about to end sooner than we think.

Ah yes, just seen his comment about it now!

Oh man, you're making me want to blow the dust off my space science research dreams and explore that avenue again! There's so much exploration that can be done and discover new materials that we can harness the power of! Thank you!
