GOLD

Sensitive_Contract_3

You say you’ve been in this market 4-5 years. Yet you still don’t understand basic liquidity & demand? Ukraine-Russia war still raging US-Venezuela tensions escalating Big players are running to STABLE assets Nobody wants a currency controlled by whales & governments When real war kicks off → they dump risk-on assets Smart money quietly stacks GOLD — the safest asset on earth Watch closely: When gold profits start rotating back into crypto That’s when we see the real pump. Liquidity & demand always follow the money.

Now say the same thing, but replace the BTC with the word GOLD. Tell me the difference, if any.

BTC - GOLD ETH - SILVER EASY picking.

Consistent_Panda5891

Wrong. Max BTC value within 10Y is 270-330K value based on GOLD market cap. BTC never will have more than 5/10 its market cap. What makes most sense for MM is dump it max they can to profit both downside and also upside. I might not know much about crypto but yes short selling. Experience with the most shorted stock, smci. And BTC doesn't has any protection against short selling such as keeping around x80 amount you short sell in cash or other assets reserved for covering shorts which law uses to avoid massively short selling on stocks. Expect some relief rallies during downside of up to 15K but won't last much

Top-Syrup-3467

I see the bottom around 45-50k, it could go further down to 35k depending on the news sentiment. But anything below 50k I will start DCA. In general, Bitcoin compared to other assets like GOLD see less capital inflow for some reason. They used to tell Bitcoin will reach Gold 10T mcap but GOLD doubled its mcap to 20T and Bitcoin still looking weak. Maybe one day it will reverse 🤔

We just need to know what it’s not, not fiat, NOT GOLD, not a class asset. End of story.

GOLD YTD +54%, BTC YTD -12.04% won’t make for fun Thanksgiving conversation, for sure.

It's very difficult to use it as a currency. Because not many day to day stuff can be bought with it. Or for that matter purchasing a house or a car for example. Maybe in a few countries like UAE (Dubai) you can but given the BTC price fluctuations you enter into a contract and next day the value changes. Also it's very hard to purchase and sell BTC with fiat. The exchanges charge a hefty price. In both buying and selling. The sellers from whom you can buy direct also sell at a premium. And the given Capital Gains tax... that's a different story. For me who is from India ... cryto is basically considered illegal (they tax us like that). And the technicality of BTC in general is way way beyond the common man's understanding. And yes. The security you need to maintain after you have a considerable amount of BTC. All of the above are a reasons for me to not use it as a asset to store value. I'd rather GOLD or multiply fiat in stock market to keep valuation above inflation.

By real gold from reputable sources, businesses that've been around for decades. If you're really concerned, get it assessed by a qualified professional. Beyond that, Gold and silver are infinitely better investments than crypto. Why? Here's why.. 1.) Bitcoin has been around for well over a decade and... you STILL can't use it to purchase most things (and the other, less known coins are even worse in this regard). 2.) You can't hold Bitcoin in your hand, or in a safe. It's supposedly "out there, in the ether somewhere". Just trust that, OK? 3.) Since it's "de-centralized" and "can't be tracked or taxed", it doesn't enjoy FDIC/SPIC insurance IF those numbers on your screen disappear one day. And they do, plenty. Oh and if you think the Gov't won't eventually find a way to know about your crypto and tax it, good luck. I'd hire a good attorney like, NOW . Especially if you check the "NO" box on your annual tax filing where it asks, "Do you have any crypto"? 4.) There's NO way to value Bitcoin. It can't be weighed/assessed. It doesn't pay dividends, interest like bonds or produce products that people are going to need/want/buy (like publicly owned companies). The only value it has is this: There's some sucker on the other end of your sale, who'll pay more for it than you did. 5.) It's SCAM FUEL. Scammers LOVE crypto because once they hack into your wallet, get you to disclose it or worse, convince you to send it to them - it can't be recovered. Poof. It's gone. That's why scammers LOVE to deal in it. It's custom made to ruin people dumb enough to fall for it. 6.) Digital currency opens the door to the gov't knowing EVERYTHING you do, sell, say, buy etc. They'll tie it to a "social credit score", to determine whether they should just freeze it, arrest you or just confiscate it - for saying the wrong thing on social media. Don't think that can happen here? Ask people in China (and elsewhere) how that's working out for them. Your gov't already "mandated" a needle be put in your arm (containing a toxic and experimental drug) - or you're fired. We're just going to starve you and your family, see? And only the Supreme Court kept Biden from going even FURTHER. 6.) 2,000 years ago, a Romon could use an ounce of gold to buy a nice toga. 2,000 years later today, you can take an ounce of gold and buy 1 hell of a nice suit, PLUS have $ left over for dinner. GOLD NOT ONLY HOLDS ITS VALUE, IT KEEPS PACE WITH INFLATION For all of those reasons and more, I'll keep buying gold and silver, NOT crypto.

Look at the bullish divergence in =DJIA/GOLD The gold spike was DJIA capitulation. M2 is all time high, rates cut, global M2 all time high. Even if there is a crash it will certainly recover. The crash was muted by inflation. Real inflation. Not the lies told.

This guy is a joke. How some of these people ever become wealthy is beyond me. He will hate on BTC forever, and it will be $250,000 and still "It is time to sell your BTC and buy GOLD".

No money has 7 basic principles: 1. Medium of Exchange 2. A unit of Account 3. Portable 4. Durable 5. Divisible 6. Fungible 7. (most important) STORE OF VALUE over time Things like currency has all these BUT #7 which is why its called FIAT CURRENCY not FIAT MONEY Money and Currency are 2 COMPLETELY different things. The paper backs you have now were once MONEY because you could exchange them for something LIKE GOLD (the rule #7 store of value) it now DOES NOT (hence inflation/purchasing power demising in the USD)

biba8163

Even if you take BTC CAGR from when it reached a $1 Trillion marketcap, BTC return is competitive with top tech stocks after reaching $1 Trillion. And these are the best performing Mag 7 a lot of which have bubbled up with the AI narrative. BTC easily has outperformed the S&P and QQQ tech heavy indices. All this while BTC endured a massive bear market. Returns have come down but so has risk. Look at the 30-day volatility index in recent years and how quickly we bounced off a bear market. If bear market cycles (-80% draw-downs) become a thing of the past even the more modest returns will draw much more institutional interest as a lower correlated diversifier to traditional assets (depending on how damage Trump has done to the legitimacy of BTC and crypto in general which we will only know of in a regime change). If the growth continues, it will be BTC growth as a mature asset class in itself. The days of getting rich off BTC in a 4 year cycle are over. So are the days of doing 25X to 100X on shitcoins that rise when BTC goes on a bullrun. *Annualized from 02/19/2021 when BTC reached $1 Trillion Marketcap* | Asset | 1T Mktcap. | CAGR | |:-----------|------------:|:------------:| | GOLD | 5/21/1979| 6.15% | AAPL | 8/2/2018| 25.14% | AMZN | 9/4/2018| 12.28% | MSFT | 4/2/2019| 24.92% | GOOGL | 1/16/2020| 24.71% | BTC | 2/29/2021| 14.48% | NVDA | 5/30/2023| 104.46% | META | 01/24/2024| 7.73% | TSLA | 11/08/2024| 7.19% | **Asset** | **1/2 T Mktcap.** | **CAGR** | | ETH | 10/28/2021| -2.34%

Syncopat3d

How so? GOLD/SPX is currently at 0.653, a far cry from many of those historical values I listed, some much lower and some much higher; the current value should be much lower than the historical values if what you said is true.

bizaroo933

Told it yesterday. Sell this shit, buy GOLD

Syncopat3d

The 'underperforms' part is an often-quoted trope/opinion, but not really true depending on time horizon. GOLD/SPX is empirically cyclical at an interval longer than one human generation. Your claim is valid only if you subjectively choose a short attention span or recent horizon; compared to the wide range of GOLD/SPX values, there have not been enough cycles to prove the point about 'underperforms'. Historical data points for GOLD/SPX: * 1932: 4.7 * 1968: 0.66 * 1980: 7.8 * 2000: 0.192 * 2011: 1.688

Emergency_Egg1281

I dont think its dead it being manipulated. Just like SILVER & GOLD were kept down artificially. The dollar will eventually go digital. I truly believe the entire crypto space is being controlled by a group of whales that have inside knowledge of events that move the market in advance. They are feeding on all newbies and , I hate to say it , the holders too. All that hold or have " diamond hands " are getting fleeced too. Holding and buying the dips is a great strategy but they still get drained over time as assets fall. Keep buying dips and before you know it you have a bunch of tokens but they are worth nothing. So everyone is exiting like they want. The pump will come as soon as you ALL sell. So please , listen to this guy and SELL , SELL , SELLLLLLL !!!!

LinoStar69

GOLD added BTC market cap in one week... crazy. I wonder it that money will eventually flow into crypto

LinoStar69

GOLD +10% since October 1st, why would retail invest in crypto that can rug -90% in 15 minutes?

PitoWilson85

Actually,the same government is robbing you and will blame you that it's your fault for being involved in the cryptospace because there are no laws for it nor against it, it's supposed to be a Free Market like the Wild Wild West . They will rob you and blame you at the same time, that's how twisted these politicians with their corporate and banking goons are. Remember, Crypto is considered almost like Counterfeit Money and all governments are against any currency that's competing against theirs. Get into GOLD AND SILVER NOW before the REAL CRYPTOCURRENCY DOES TAKE OFF.. 🚂 🚃🚃🚃

ButterflySecret6780

Yeah because central banks are buying BTC not GOLD

This year I diversified and bought 2 more different wallets. I already have a real GOLD mine which makes BTC more valuable and I can send it world wide to buy everything I need.

Where did you get your info. ITS NOT GOLD OR BASED OF OFF ANYTHING. It has its own markets.

BuddyIsMyHomie

What’s insane is like—well, where else is your money safe? CASH? No, $DXY down >12% and the USD getting further devalued. EQUITIES? This WAS the move if you believed in U.S. Capitalism and engineering/innovation. Not anymore. CRYPTO? This ALSO WAS the move given policies, public bullishness, insider support (Sacks, Barron, etc.) Not any more… GOLD? This is ironically the place where you go when you don’t believe or trust in the administration. Apparently, DJT is either retarded, immoral and extremely greedy, or is acting on behalf of those who benefit from destabilization.

Syncopat3d

Such a foolish dramatic perspective. What if you try using Nov 2021 as a starting point, for a slightly longer perspective? GOLD: 1774 -> 3974 (+124%) BTCUSD: 56988 -> 121714 (+113%) BTCUSD has a higher realized volatility, so past performance is even less indicative of future performance. Yes BTCUSD is nice, but just because you like bitcoin does not mean you have to make fun of gold or gold holders.

Commercial_Leek6987

I am not “going on about” anything, I am pointing out that GOLD-SP500-BTC being down at the same time! Usually investors move money from one to another. Liquidation of all non-cash commodity at the same time is something I have not seen before.

Escapement_Watch

lol Crypto always stutters when GOLD PUMPS. We need gold to calm down and chop sideways then we can resume. But I think it will be a slow melt up bull run that extends into 2026. It is very different now with institutions and etfs.

Johnsie408

If they were all falling at the same rate then they would appear to be stable. You need to compare these currencies to something else like GOLD or BITCOIN, all currencies are losing ground against these safe havens.

LinoStar69

I bet GOLD will hit 5k before ETH 🤣

bitcoin_islander

Look up the GOLD/BTC chart and dont cherry pick data based on the last 6 months alone. Gold going nowhere.

iwannaskibbittvbeep

ETH, while it is the most useful ALT, will never be anything close to GOLD when it comes to inflation proofing your portfolio. Its closer to gambling, and most of my portfolio is in ETH, so take my word for it. I also do a lot of SILVER/GOLD investments.

iwannaskibbittvbeep

GOLD/PAXG is inflation proof because gold is a store of value. BTC and ETH are crypto, a small subset of finance and are affected by inflation. BTC will have more crashes. GOLD doesn't really crash that hard

olegai

and the reality is that if you would've bought GOLD you'd be in much safer space:)) and look at the gold performance this year ...

Lagna85

If u bought GOLD at the start of the year, you will have +53%. If u bought BTC, you will have +28%. For most alts, it's negative.

jwz9904

Old is GOLD

EvilBeanz59

more than that my friend. You are seeing more fiat chase the same amount of BTC. The direct reasoning on BTC and its ATH is because of easy money )easier than normal I should say LOL) because of this you see a direct influx of where those dollars go....GOLD BTC and other assets.

biba8163

*If you are lucky enough to be an investor who has access investments in the capital markets in the U.S, you really should diversify.* There are a lot of people in developing and 3rd world countries who don't have access this type of market that are relatively efficient, high growth, free of corruption and manipulation and BTC may be the only option for them. Use February 2021 as a starting point when BTC reached $1 Trillion marketcap as a global asset and not 2018, 2013 or 2010 when BTC was either a relatively small or tiny asset giving you some outrageous CAGR which cannot be repeated by a multi-trillion marketcap asset. From there BTC performance is still impressive but it's more in line with other traditional assets. It's actually very impressive that despite the huge appreciation in gold with central banks buying thousands of metric tons of it in the last few years and the AI narrative and CapEX spending in the stock market, BTC is still a top performer among these assets in the last ~5 years from when it reached a $1 Trillion marketcap. I throw individual stocks in the comparison because people inevitably scream NVDA today like they screamed TSLA in 2020. Outpeformance of various asset classes, individual stocks and even BTC wanes and waxes and nothing is guaranteed so diversification is key. BTC has been a great diversifier even after reaching a monstrous $1 Trillion marketcap. *Annualized from 02/19/2021 when BTC reached $1 Trillion Marketcap* | Asset | From Date | CAGR | |:-----------|------------:|:------------:| | NVDA | 02/19/2021| 75.1% | META | 02/19/2021| 24.28% | MSFT | 02/19/2021| 18.06% | GOLD | 02/19/2021| 17.87% | BTC | 02/19/2021| 17.20% | AAPL | 02/19/2021| 16.18% | QQQ | 02/19/2021| 13.65% | SPY | 02/19/2021| 12.38% | GOOGL | 02/19/2021| 11.57% | TSLA | 02/19/2021| 11.44% | AMZN | 02/19/2021| 6.74%

dalvik_spx

The cause of “uptober” is quite simple: it is the beginning of Q4,and if markets have done well during the year, this forces sidelined tradfi capital into the market, needing to keep up with competitors and their own benchmarks. This is not just a simple matter of fomo, it is a necessity to keep up with your benchmarks and competitors, or you will lose AUM or even your job. BTC is a great vehicle for this, due to its high volatility, returns and liquidity. Not much can substitute for it in this regard. This is especially true if SPY and GOLD are up a lot on the year; it’s only natural to begin eyeing BTC as a way to catch up. Conditions going into the end of this year could not be more perfect for a textbook performance chase, as many were shaken out by the tariff tantrum and either underperformed or some still (esp liberals and moderates) sidelined entirely. Many of the traditional crypto specific seasonality effects are fading in relevance with a fundamentally different set of participants driving the market post ETFs. But the drivers of the Q4 performance chase have become more relevant, if anything. Credits: [https://x.com/grimacexbt/status/1973741517039878343](https://x.com/grimacexbt/status/1973741517039878343)
