If you have a denomination like that, all currencies that aren't bitcoin automatically lose in value when BTC sell-off ocurres - my point being that money is being siphoned from the cryptoeconomy.
If you ask me, that caused the Xaur price fluctuation these days...
Yep, Ill just quote myself here in response to the link..
2nd - regarding my question - thnx for explaining that, however I have to ask: Isnt the commonwealth actually just gold reserve backing the whole thing?
I cannot see any other meaning of the word commonwealth - also, if you melt - shouldn't the commonwealth also increase, providing the profits go into buying more goldbars?
Melted XAUR are destroyed and commonwealth gold is decreased for the quantity of gold you melt.
