10 sats \ 3 replies \ @Doo_Deux OP 31 Jan \ parent \ on: Central banks have been buying gold at a record pace news
Devil's advocate.... do most people that want to buy gold an older generation because that is what a store of value has been for generations? Newer generation does not see gold the same way as a store of value as the newer generations.
So does this directly correlate to BTC ETF's? Dunno... just a random thought.

Gold is inherently valuable to most everyone as it is a precious metal and there is therefore not a lot of it. (Still, there is a bit of it). BTC doesn't have any intrinsic value beyond a digitally derived market.

What is the "intrinsic value" of the SWIFT network? Or the Internet for that matter?

  1. It only has agreed upon value among those who use it. Could say it is a "derived value".
