Was expecting something silly from you. What's gold backed with?

#Bitcoin is going to separate money and state, something goldbugs never managed to achieve.

Gold isn't backed by anything - it is the backing

So gold is unbacked the same way #Bitcoin is.

No, you're not retarded at all.

The difference is while I can't eat gold I can fill a tooth with it

While Bitcoin has no use other than as a trade token

Unbacked but tooth fillings 😆

The difference is while it can't fill a hole, #Bitcoin can be sent across continents without trusted third party.
