Correct. GOLD has been tested thru time.

What about a coin backed by Gold and by a trusted centralised company?

Trusting other animals to look after your resources is silly behavior, no other creature would do such an absurd thing.

Latest posters are sensible, they deserve pats on their greasy domes.

Bitcoin AND Gold, mix the two, they are both real money.

50/50 is a good mix to start with.

EDIT: Silver rounds are A1 also.

Due to their correlation I would combine your investment in bitcoin and gold:

Bitcoin, and in some case gold (for problem of speculation in particular case). Bitcoin is the future money, I hope that will happen this.

I would pick 50/50. Gold because of his consistency over time, Bitcoin because of the easeness of movement and possible big uprise in the future.

In an ideal investment portfolio it is necessary a percentage of 60% of gold and 40% of other type of investment (or bitcoin  Smiley).

If everybody thought that way, gold would go through the roof.  Grin
On a serious note, what people think of as "ideal portfolio" includes stocks, bonds, real estate and a small amount in alternate investments (commodities, crypto-currencies, etc)

There seem to be a deflationary collapse in process. Holding cash, however illogical it seems today, may be the wisest course of action.

Good to diversify, 50% gold and 50% bitcoin..

Maybe throw some stocks in the mix

What if physical bitcoin that made of gold? Cheesy that is possible right? but what is the value? according to gold or to bitoin? Cheesy

Cassius coins, silver wallet, gold wallet.... The idea has been tried before.  Smiley

What about a coin backed by Gold and by a trusted centralised company?
