Topic: What do you think about precious metals? (Read 721 times)

gold has been for years a type of investment and is nothing new. People have been buying gold before christ B.C.

it's until this day one of the most valuable commodities and a good investment, if you want to diversify your portfolio only from Crypto buy yourself some

Gold is a good investment it has a nice value and it is increasing just like bitcoin

I heard platinum is good for long term investment because its supply getting decreased by years. I also like silver in accessorises.

I prefer to keep gold rather than silver

I like silver more than gold. But I wear a tungsten ring from the Lord of the Rings and enjoy life!

precious metals are always valuable for us and it is difficult to buy for the poor people on the other hand thep rich people get these because they have enough  money.mainly the precious metals are platinum,diamond,gold,silver etc.

i prefer platinum and gold and silver.

these all metals my favorite metals. so i would like more than platinum.

the cost of platinum is high. and gives different look.

Always have something at hand, in case of war they can save your life (or bring troubles)...

It's all about that Gold!

metals are usually solid, good conductors, of electricity and it gives heat, shiny. gold is more precious metals in the metals.

in making jewelry we are using gold platinum and silver. some metals are more costly then other metals. and cooper is a good

 conductor of electricity.some metals are very strong that can be used in making tools and automobile industry. and jewelry etc..

In the world Rhodium is the most valuable metal and it has high melting point it can be used

 in the search lights automotive industries. Platinum is also one the valuable metal it can be

used in the weaponry, aeronautics. Gold most valuable metal in the metals it can be used to

 make jewelry.so these are the most important metals in the world.

verry good

I don't like jewelry. Sometimes I see women who have on every finger a ring. I'm very funny to watch. Valid values for a person can be only vital things. This is manifested only in time of war or disasters.

both of them is rare thing in the world. Gold have better rates, and long term investment

I preferred silver than gold, silver has so many use as of today not like gold than hoarded by some people in the government,

I think their shinning is attractive to some people.

im a great fan of gold because of both the shine and value.

well, because you ask about precious metal in cryptocurrency forum, i think it's because Gold and silver have thousands of years of history as a safe haven that no other asset class can match, but over the past several years, the owners of gold and silver have seen losses or very little returns from their assets, whereas the owners of cryptocurrency have enjoyed significant gains. Currently, Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies lack a futures market, which is a favorite tool for manipulation of the precious metals market.

but Bitcoin is certainly building up an impressive track record for itself. Bitcoin price went up during the 2013 Cyprus Bail-in, the Russian Ruble Crisis of 2014, the 2015 Greek Crisis and the early 2016 imposition of Chinese capital controls.
In the summer of 2016, Bitcoin had a similar reaction to Brexit and had an even more pronounced reaction to the Indian bank note demonetization and its resulting chaos.
Bitcoin’s latest crisis-driven run-up was assisted by continued Chinese capital controls and general political uncertainty. This short but consistent performance may not make Bitcoin a bona fide safe haven but it does demonstrate capital flight into crypto during times of economic shock will probably continue.

This doesn’t mean that precious metals don’t have their place. There is a lot to be said for an asset with no counterparty risk that you can retain in your possession.

Both precious metals and cryptocurrency will likely benefit from the inherent flaws in our debt-based monetary system, but owning one type of asset shouldn’t deter anyone from investing in the other. Precious metals and cryptocurrencies should be partners in a crisis portfolio: cryptocurrency for its potential for significant gains, and gold and silver, as always, as insurance against unforeseen outcomes.

I also preferred silver than gold,silver is the one that pumping this day not the gold.

Can't go wrong in precious metals over the long haul, but yeah, silver over gold
