At least gold has intrinsic value: you could have used your gold block as a paper weight.
You cannot use bitcoin as a paper weight.
In 2016, I purchased this piece of gold for $400 as a “risk-off” asset after Trump won.
If I bought the same amount of Bitcoin instead, it would be worth $45,000 today.
This piece of gold is worth $830 now.
Thanks PeterSchiff !
