Everyone here needs to recommend to Lauren Lyster of Capital Account to get Trace Mayer on for an interview.

Well if you see bitcoin as moving closer to lightspeed than us, then their time is dilated and they are travelling into the future

But no, the less flawed explanation is just that bitcoin is a comparatively smaller market, thus bigger volatility. It won't last

Bitcoin moves faster then everything else..  Maybe it is FTL!!

This isn't volatility, this is straight up appreciation..

Remember the guy who bought a pizza for 1 Trillion Satoshi's! 

Volitility implies it goes up and down..  This is basically straight up baby!!

PS.  I'm selling Pizza's for 1/2 a trillion Satoshi's get em while they are hot!!

Im not so sure.  I would take the 1793 vs 1750 bet

"so close you could taste it".  how classic.  your tongue just got bit off.

The price of gold has just reached $1,000,000 an ounce...

i'm beginning to think this tungsten filled gold fiasco is a game changer.

think about it; dealers have found a way to subvert the physical tangibility factor that all the gold bugs here have tried to pound home as its main virtue.  i'm not just saying this b/c i'm bearish on gold from a fundamental and technical standpoint.  this was totally unexpected by me but is a development that seriously brings into question the viability of a physical monetary currency.

instead of a USD for gold tx being extinguished immediately upon exchange, now scamming dealers have found a way to create financial counterparty risk.

it appears that the only viable way to verify that a bar or coin's integrity is to use ultrasound.  i actually have an ultrasound in my business and am investigating a way to tune its velocity to that of gold so that i can examine my own few remaining coins as well as experiment for fun.  now clearly, i am in the minority of bullion holders who have this capability.  this is a problem for the remaining public that does not have access to this technology.  it means that whenever you go to the coin shop to buy a coin or bar, that dealer has a potential asymmetric informational advantage over you.  you have no idea whether he is legit or a scammer.  this will put you at tremendous financial risk unless you somehow get access to an ultrasound which most won't have.  thus, your exchange will have to take place purely on faith.  clearly, in my mind, this will put a chill into the minds of current and potential future gold investors and to my mind has the potential to be a game changer and kill the gold bull market.

btw, this is what happens at bubble highs.  i en-liken it to subprime loans.  the market gets so frothy, fraud starts to enter in ultimately destroying the market.

i will actually try to put up pictures of my gold and silver coins if i get this to work and will compare them to things like Casascius coins, etc.

this is very true altho it may be hard for silver to rally if gold doesn't.

Because we're at the top of a bubble.
