Debate: Bitcoin vs Gold with Anthony Scaramucci and Peter Schiff

Both guests behaved well. Mr. Scaramucci only gave theory

I think the trick that tricks many is the inability to settle for what they have or what they could have through simply working and being reasonable with money. The thing is not everyone can be rich, and if you think about it, just having enough+, like the basics plus some savings and some spare cash for fun, that's already a lot.

Gold or Bitcoin? Since central banks have gold in their reserves, you be wise to have some physical. But Bitcoin only has 125 million wallets but by 2025 will have a billion wallets. The immediate winner is Bitcoin. But gold will have to be revalued at some point in the future to salvage fiat or digital currencies. CONCLUSION: Better have both!

[@lotusscalper3116]

The bitcoin pumpers could make a 1 million wallets a day using super computers. Just cause the amount of wallets are increasing doesn't mean bitcoin is being used more. The fact remains bitcoin is not a store of value. Too volatile. Nobody wants to watch their life savings swing 10% everyday

[@comment2250]

To answer the moderator's question "when will we see?" We will all see whether cypto currencies are a viable, enduring asset that holds its perceived value when the next major global financial/monetary crisis occurs, not a crisis like that of 2008, the Great Depression, or COVID-19, but something many times worse e.g. a full on EMT event, or a major cyber attack against the world's major global financial centers. It can be something like these two events or something else that will prove to be THE test that, will cleary show the whether crypto currencies and their networks are viable and a good store of value. Gold ALREADY has an established track record for withstanding local and global crises that pre-dates Bitcoin and other cryptos by thousands of years, it has proven its staying. Crypto currencies, ETFs, derivatives, and other relatively newer financial products are the new kids on the block that have yet to be tested, tried by fire, like gold, to prove their mettle when the next BIG crisis hits.

@@bahmak2003 because the price can be kept artificially low by dumping a load of paper gold or silver into the market. through this the price of physical gold is skewed by a paper supply which has the dual effect of allowing central banks of various nations to buy gold at a cheap price and discourages the population from buying gold. however when the paper price is no longer valued and people start demanding physical gold then the imbalance created by using paper contracts to suppress price puts upward pressure on price. that is, in short, why the price of gold doesnt make massive moves when central banks buy it.

First of all....skip to 2:45 for commentation of meaning between Peter and Anthony. Secondly....no one negates Gold as a store for fighting inflation. What most people recognize is that gold...cannot be taken with you...'on the fly"...it's probably going to be confiscated in anything more than in "collectable coins"....Collectable coins are a terrible way to buy gold. I've learned this after buying them...and then seeing the resale value upon considering doing so. They do NOT follow the Spot Gold pricing resales scenario that bars for example do. (only buy bars of various sizes). Money is finally "ascending" now. Gold was the old paradigm...and despite it's 5,000 year importance...technology is taking over now...as it must. Money is corruptible, with governments stealing people's money - literally and figuratively. Period. Gold would still be a good moderator of/for the Fiat currency if we could dig enough of it up to back Fiat currency. People don't want or need governments to "be 3rd parties to all of our transactions" in society...which, it's becoming. Peter,....how does one "speak to you sir"...unless they are ready to purchase $1,000,000 worth of your Schiff Gold?" Answer: One can't. Your time is too valuable to you...which we all understand. Our time; as laborers, drivers of trucks, nurses, CPA's, welders and such...is valuable too. We need a vehicle to believe in that can drastically increase our wealth in the next "ten" years...not just be a hedge against inflation. We need to buy houses with either Crypto/cash now. What other way/means is the common person with a simple "4-year-college-degree"...going to make enough "money" in this world, at this time...to do so sir? We only have ONE shot. Crypto is it. Decentralizing ideas, investments, money is paramount now to surviving the coming cataclysm about to escalate in 2022. Peter....we need to move past "a physical thing that one needs to hold onto physically now"....to move forward. Having something other than gold as a store of value...can be more than a "thing that one holds onto physically now". Also Peter,....we're NOT going to be here in 100/1000 years; read the Book of Revelations. The "Greater Fool' idea doesn't hold up either. Money is being made worthless now with Q. Easing which you're well aware of....it's your number one argument for the "need for gold". Copper has a much more valuable "worth" in industry than Gold or Silver,...but the psychological value is seen to be higher due to the "level of scarcity". So...final statement; we need to have both now. We need to fight inflation...if we're old enough and have worked long enough for "American Corporations who steal, cheat and wreak lives in a Capitalist society"...to have some gold. Yes...if you're a kid; under 30...buy crypto now...and good chances are...by 2025...if you sell your Crypto gains...you'll never need to go to college, you'll buy a house with a nice "hot tub" and a respectable spouse to live your life. The network is growing daily....like it or not...crypto is here to stay; transient value or not.

im a huge peter schiff fan, but in this specific case, he doesnt get it. gold has physical properties that make it valuable, malleability, conductivity, etc. bitcoin has mathematical properties that make it valuable, cant be duplicated, forged, centrally controlled. these properties are not physical i agree, but they are still valuable, their value is precisely that they make for a good store of wealth. much better than gold because if you do it right you can keep a billion dollars of value safely, how do you keep a billion dollars of gold? you need a safe facility, security personnel etc. even if you just want a couple of bars at home, theres a risk. if you dont have the physical gold yourself then you dont really have any security. with FIAT youre trusting the goverment to do the right thing, with gold thats stored somewhere else youre trusting a company of people to do the right thing. In case of a global collapse which Peter Schiff insists is imminent, Id rather have a file with multiple backups and multiple encryption layers, that depends on a password that only lives inside my and my immediate families brain.

The real no-coiners tout 'technology'... and don't actually understand what they tell others they understand. 'Bitcoin', is not a 'coin' nor is it a 'currency'. 'Intrinsically', it is worth less than air- and ACTUALLY pollutes it [Bitcoin 'mining' consumes lots of energy, and it's actually not 'mining' at all, it's a waste of energy]. The Bitcoin logo is a gold coin with two lines through it. But it's not digital gold at all. It's a waste of scarce energy. To buy in, you pay with 'fiat' currency, lets say.. US Dollars. You will also pay a fee in US Dollars to have an amount of US Dollars 'converted' to Bitcoin. That money will be tied up until you 'sell' it or 'convert' it back. You will be charged a fee for this action as well. The price of Bitcoin goes up as more people buy in to it with fiat given the supply remains the same. That is what gives it its value, people paying fiat for 'Bitcoin'. 'Fiat' is vital to the propagation of 'Bitcoin'. That's how it is appraised- its appraisal is in fiat itself, making it extremely redundant and wasteful. This happens despite many energy shortages exist around the world and many people struggle to stay warm. All Ponzi schemes go up, the benefactors are those who cash out in time, before the scam fails to keep the prices high by keeping people investing their money in it. South Sea Company, Theranos, Enron. Musk ran off with his gains after he conned his followers to buy Bitcoin, so they can raise the price, and he could sell out. It's been 13 years and it has not replaced cash as it once touted. The value is heavily dependent on cash. It's only added a redundancy. People could literally buy over 25 1 troy ounce real gold coins for $50,000. But they've been bamboozled. What do they get for $50,000? A special blockchain memory logged with transaction history with hyper-technology verificaltion scheme in network memory? Hyper-technology super duper digital currency which I can buy from ATMs and Coin Star machines at the various stores, which are the same stores I can't buy anything using the Bitcoin. Tesla was accepting Bitcoin for a while. Why aren't they anymore? It's not worth the risk. Cash is much more convenient, Cash is the very thing that allows Bitcoin to become more/less valuable. It's quite simple. It's such an obvious scam, and now grandmas are going to get burned for following the pipe dreams of so many others. Most will be burned. I feel sorry for them.

Honestly, in my opinion, the point is not that gold, being a physically tangible material, has an intrinsic value, i.e. the value corresponding to a material from which things can be made. Rather, the point is why gold has a higher value than for example steel, silicon, zirconium or even silver? materials with which you can also make things. For me the answer is obvious, because we as human beings have given it to them throughout history. Actually silicon or if I dare oxygen is much more relevant to our civilization than gold, however 1kg of gold, even now, still has much more value. Actually a gold watch is only more valuable than a steel watch because gold is worth more, but not because it intrinsically works better or is even more beautiful because it is made of gold. I personally do not find gold objects particularly aesthetically pleasing. We could therefore say that if one day the "crazy supply" that considers gold to be more valuable and more beautiful than steel, silver or silicon runs out, its value could plummet. Yes, I know it would still exist physically and it would have some value, of course as long as someone wanted to buy it, I guess the law of supply and demand is not suspended for gold, right? A bitcoin is not something physical, it is just a code represented in a blockchain, and it has no greater utility than to represent a value - it is not a code that serves for anything beyond representing itself. Any computer application, the same youtube or google are ultimately code, but despite not being tangible or "being able to build jewelry with them" no one doubts its value, but its value lies in its utility, it is not the case of Bitcoin as a code. But it is not the pretension of Bitcoin either (in any case it is the pretension of blockchain). Bitcoin is, like most of the dollars and euros that we handle daily (the people of the first world of course) only a code in a computer, and just as dollars and euros its value lies in its usefulness as a medium of exchange to sell or purchase goods and services, neither the computer code that represents a dollar or a euro serves for nothing more than to represent itself. The advantages as a currency of BTC (or any crypto) are very clear and are well known (decentralization, non-inflationary, traceability, speed, no intermediaries, etc.) and for me it is very clear that cryptocurrencies will be the currencies of the future, hopefully free and decentralized and in the worst case we will have the CDBC. Therefore we can conclude that trading with BTC is no more or less dangerous than trading with dollars, pounds or euros, it is just another pair, whose volatility must be calibrated at all times. Now, as a reserve asset is comparable to gold?, I think that to answer this question we must first answer ourselves to these other two questions: How many investors really buy gold because in case it loses all its value at least they will always have a piece of metal with which they can build something? How many real investors buy gold because they believe that its value will be maintained in times of crisis and do not even contemplate that it could lose all its value? If we put the majority of investors in the second case, we are equating it to BTC, and in both cases, as in any investment, we will be assuming risks, either due to obsolescence or lack of consolidation.

Oh, loved it how Peter put Scaradumbi down "Oh, I ain't gonna buy it, don't look to me to get out" ahahaha. Brilliant, Peter!!!

[@bahmak2003]

Peter is the loser! He even confessed if he can comeback 10 years he would buy bitcoin!😂😂😂😂

It's hard to hear this woman talking. Very annoying. Long interruptions. They should address each other's arguments.

[@504boi8wd]

Peter made the better arguments IMO

[@bahmak2003]

Lol yeah all the bitcoin ignorants believe that!😂😂😂🤦🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[@TT-nk5hi]

His loaded argument is the same on every youtube debate. "gold is physical and bitcoin is not" thats it, he can't conceptualise anything else.

[@ShortManlet]

@@TT-nk5hi because that's all he needs to say.

[@annapris646]

The intrinsic value of Bitcoin is trust. ‘Intrinsic value’ need not be tangible. Unfortunately for gold, it is being manipulated. Bitcoin is designed to reject any kind of manipulation. My vote, after many years of researching the question very deeply, is for Bitcoin.

Don't go full in, don't bet that you're right, diversify 80% on the thing you believe 20% in gold just in case.

[@EroticOnion23]

You should look up the definition of intrinsic value first…😅 Can you eat, drink, live, and improve your life with trust? You wouldn’t have made this useless comment without gold lol…😅

@@g0thman865 whales don't manipulate crypto? Wow you are dense.

[@Braylon18]

The manipulation of gold is done by force, and temporary.

[@Ball_Chat_FC]

@@EroticOnion23 Value is subjective. Would you survive with a bag of gold on a desert island? It would also be as worthless as crypto. Intrinsic value makes no sense, it’s always subjective

How can you not love Peter Schiff? :D

[@stevejurgens9836]

How can you love him?

[@realbigugly]

By not being up his ass

[@BTCNSDAP]

If you invested in Euro pacific capital which has been stagnant for the past decade, you probably hate his guts lol

[@ACEJONESCEO_GUOKMUSICGROUP]

Because he screams old nonsense that’s how❗️

[@tommykoed7493]

You peasants are short sighted, you are prob involved with crypto 😅

What happens if there is a nuclear war and the all technology is dismantled and the network crashes and is lost in space via a floating satellite that nobody can access?
