Back to the gold versus bitcoin debate, and seems that hardly anyone is believing that anymore, even the hardcore gold bugs are starting to wonder.
Sure they still have some goldbug true believers, but those guys have been getting mostly slaughtered ever since bitcoin came on the scene, and they had a little bit of hopium with last year's gold pumpening, but even with that, part of their ongoing error seems to be measuring their gold pumpenings in terms of dollars rather than really comparing bitcoin's performance.
I know another aspect of their intellectual (and conceptual) problems with bitcoin remains their ongoing lack of appreciation of the difference between
bitcoin and shitcoins..
bitcoin and crypto
they are fucking confused, even like some bitcoiners do not even know the difference, and some of us bitcoiners believe that bitcoin is just one of the cryptos and blah blah blah and try to categorize bitcoin like that just causes way the fuck too much confusion, so in some sense, we have to excuse (or would it be forgive or understand?) them for their confusion (and ongoing stupidity).
Just think about how much I have to ask people what the fuck is "crypto" in this thread and even some other threads on the forum.. you fucks.. some of you
(not talking about you, dude) do not even know the fucking difference. some of you say things like: "well everyone else is using that term, so we should be able to use it in this thread" Fuck that vague nonsense.
We wonder why some of the gold bugs are confused about what is bitcoin?
And, hey.... I am not even saying not to use the term crypto if you put it in context and describe what you are talking about, so for example, if you are using crypto to refer to bitcoin, then why not just use the word bitcoin. If you are referring to something else when you feel that you need to use the word crypto, then just describe what you are talking about a wee bit.. is that so difficult?
Anyhow, probably I over stated the case regarding why some of the goldbugs are still confused about bitcoin, and any of us should be able to appreciate that if some of the gold bugs have been invested in gold for 20 or more years, they have a bit of comfort in it.. and surely if they have been in gold since the 70s, then they may well be in decent profits.. even if the last 10-15 years have not really been that great for them, even relative to the poor performing dollar (and gosh the dollar has probably been amongst the best of the performing fiats in that timeframe).. weird times that we live in - in which the dollar is printed the fuck out of for the past 15 years (at least since 2008 - which would be 13 years) and increasingly absorbed by the whole world which allows them to get away with their world-wide tax on everyone and sloppiness...
