>>20189524they devalued silver late 1800s, the "scam" has been running strong for 200 yrs. You can be "right" but your timing is way the fuck off. Shorting anything is like this. Ya the stock is trash but when is everyone else going to figure that out? Anytime I hear someone rant about fiat currency it reminds me of a high school kid just finding out about slavery, holocaust, indians, etc.. This all rides on sentiment and confidence. Does the average retard still believe in usd? The sentiment is overwhelmingly for cashless transactions. This means things will be even more detached from the representative value. No one that even holds silver wants to transact with it, they are planning on a ROI. If something has value for the sake of transaction it doesn't necessarily make it a good investment it just needs to work and be accepted everywhere. The value of it needs to be relatively stable and no one has any savings anyways. If they do they invest it in something that isn't a dollar already. As long as the game keeps going and the whales that hold most of the USD dont sell its fine. Just like every shit coin, pm, asset that has ever existed. The properties of each medium and distribution is all that matters.
