Totally on board with the whole homestead thing!!! Gold and silver... my opinion is it's pretty much the same in the end, though I understand your point on these groups being able to pretty much print gold.

Fiat, that's a no brainer, it's already gone (well in my head it is 😀).

But for the stock market... these companies, those who survive, will probably do something along the lines of what happened in Europe when we changed from the franc to the euro... value for value (almost). Obviously those that never actually sold the shares, everyone's fucked there. Maybe you're right though, and just like crypto in the beginning, all I have in the stock market are funds that I don't need, just in case it falls apart completely, in the meantime, I'm collecting dividends!
