Max Keiser vs Peter Schiff video on Bitcoin vs Gold yesterday: Max was all yapping away and Schiff said "Bitcoin isn't even a real commodity" and the Keiser froze like a deer in headlights thinking "dammit he's been talking to r0ach...". He looked terrified as soon as that line came out. Neither one of them debated very well on the subject, though. I would destroy Keiser in a debate. All it takes is one example to destroy all the strawmen of any digital shitcoiner:
They weren't debating, you dip twat. Max was interviewing Schiff, and likely trying NOT to be too confrontational with a guest. He (max) did ask Peter a few easy questions in which Peter provided stupid-ass and lame responses.
You are likely not to fare much better in any debate with Max Keiser or with any other person who has half of any ideas about bitcoin as compared with gold.
You get regularly demolished here in this thread by the most basic of arguments, even though you frequently spout out plenty of volume with your repeated talking points that don't really engage about bitcoin, but instead propagate fantasy assertions that are quite detached from reality, including failure/refusal to recognize actual facts that involve both bitcoin's ongoing price appreciation, and the fact that gold and other PMs remain in a posture in which their storage of value use case and even transact-ability (including portability) is being continuously supplanted by bitcoin in current times, as I type, too.
What is money? Everything that happens occurs on the axis of time. The purpose of 'money' is to transfer value from the present to the future. In order to do so, absolutely nothing qualifies as money unless it's a non-perishable commodity.
Stop trying to pigeon-hole your definitions too much. We can talk about various time periods in which value is stored and transferred, and bitcoin is doing pretty well, as compared with gold.
Bitcoin is neither a real commodity nor non-perishable.
Who cares? Oh yeah, you do.. you are trying to make up some bullshit.
It can implode and cease to exist at literally any second.
True. But it won't. Sucks to be you, and must really suck to be HODLing those heavy gold tokens.. How many you got? Can you carry them all, in the event that you want to travel? Oh well, does not matter to you, because you are tailoring your argument to some narrow use case, rather than considering that liquidity and portability remains important, too... and bitcoin remains superior to gold in those regards.
It can also fall out of favor or be replaced by some other coin and not be accepted. This is why anything digital can be nothing more than a currency and not money.
Yes.. it could happen, but likely the odds of some kind of Bitcoin to zero scenario are far less than you are making them out to be.
Currencies, whether it's Delta Airline Miles, Chuck E Cheese tokens, or Bitcoins, have no value and they always return to exactly where they started from - zero.
You don't understand what distinguishes bitcoin from those other tokens, yet? Get the fuck out of here. You are smarter than that, no?
As long as humans roam the earth, non-perishable, physical commodity money like silver, gold, and copper does not do this, which is why they're actual money and not currencies. Currencies, which is what Bitcoin is, are ALL extremely perishable.
O.k. Good luck with your gold, silver, copper and otherwise investment. We don't need any further comparison / contrast here - especially from blind guys like you.
