    I know little about bit coin but thought it was a digital currency.
    So I wonder why members are selling gold and silver for them.
    What happened to the mantra. "if you don't hold it you don't own it?"
    Think I'll stick to holding the shiny stuff.

    Looks like gold coins but there not gold coins.
    I mean no intrinsic value.

    Don't care how you put it , I ain't touching it.
    I've spoken to a few people about them , people who work in the finance world & IT
    NONE of them believe in it , one of the finance people told me somebody tried it back in the 80's :lol:
    Don't mind me , carry on .

    I've never subscribed to that.

    Nor to many of the other things that "stackers" seem to take as gospel truth. I'm an individual who thinks for myself and I'm sure there are many others here too.

    In saying that, imo only, disclaimer, I could be wrong, btc is a sell or hold atm, not a buy.

    Whereas I think silver, in particular is definitely a buy. No opinion on gold.
