Thanks for the hat.
I was at dinner tonight with someone from europe and someone from thailand.
When referring to the price of something I used the price in bitcoin and everyone was able to understand easier than had I converted it to one of our home currencies.

It's easy now. Just don't take anyone without a hat seriously...

And imaginary, valueless shitcoins are a complete non-factor compared to physical metals in the endgame.
The physical part is an understandable perspective. But, what value does gold really have? If the endgame is a SHTF scenario lead is far more valuable than gold. You can't feed gold or silver to your children. If grain is scarce I'm not trading any of mine for your precious metals. If the shit never does hit the fan, and in the current global socioeconomic climate value is subjective, and gold is no more impressive than a paper wallet. It wouldn't be any more bizarre to trade bird's heads for tulip bulbs if we lived in a society that put value on those items. A diverse investment portfolio is the most practical approach.

It's useless to post here - people who're not wearing hats aren't taken seriously here. I stopped posting here when the first hat of the thread was designed. I've no plans of quitting FJ's generous signature campaign for a hat.  More hats = less volatility ( The Past Month, Bitcoin Has Been Less Volatile Than NASDAQ, DOW and S&P 500) . . . @STT, BTW, technically our avatar does have a hat, look at it closely.

I meant to take a principled stand against hats once, but V8 beat me to it. Then I forgot.

It wouldn't be any more bizarre to trade bird's heads for tulip bulbs if we lived in a society that put value on those items. A diverse investment portfolio is the most practical approach. I agree with DireWolfM14 here. If SHTF, the most valuable resources until order is restored will be food (and ways to acquire/grow/raise food), potable water, and fuel. I would add shelter but I don't know that shelter would necessarily be lacking. The basic necessities will be the means for barter. Here, I'll trade you 3 pounds of meat for 3 gallons of water. Or, here's 20 lbs of grain for 5 gallons of gas. If there arises an interim order (some community is achieved through communal self-sufficiency), there may be some call for a medium token of exchange, but while a precious metal might be favored, honestly pretty much anything can serve as a token of exchange as long as all the interested parties agree on its value. It could be crow's heads, for all I know.  I find it somewhat amusing the depths to which this thread has sunk due to the lack of volatility in the BTC market. A remarkable obsession with hats. I suppose even an xhomerx hat (properly authenticated, of course) could also function as a medium of exchange if SHTF.

I would actually propose, based on my observational abilities, that the causal effect is reversed from what you have proposed: My proposition: Less BTC volatility --> More Xhomerx Hats

mmmm also a big % of those AVATARS doen't ADD a price guess in a freeroll .... what kind of principal can someone really have against that ? it ain't no problem for sure , just like wearing not a HAT ..., thats just a FUN thing not a MUST thing  (i'm always curious of a few of them what there guesses are...but if they don't wanna @it's no problem) perhaps XhomerX just isn't finisht with a few of there HAT'S  lol this is becoming a HAT discussion thread

Bitcasino.io extended the signature campaign for another month so unfortunately I can’t wear my hat yet. I don’t really want to loee 200-250 GBP just to wear my hat. I’m sorry for letting the team down, I feel dirty & ashamed for letting down my WO HODL BROTHERS

I propose we tokenize our digital hatsets, and trade them as scarce commodities.
