These metals are very interesting. No matter what happens to the price performance, those who believe in them stack as much of them as they can.
Communities all over the web share their purchases, discuss sentiment, make projections and so much more.
Right now at the time of writing silver is sitting at $22.20 while gold is at $1,860.31 giving us a ratio of just under 1:84
Why stack metals? Well, if ever anything happens to fiat money, gold and silver will be accepted by many as a medium of exchange.
I highly doubt the government will be able to implement their own crypto coin to control us and our money, but knowing how long it takes the government to get anything done I don’t see this central bank backed crypto currency be a thing for at least another 30 years.
Gold and silver though is very attractive to millions and millions of people so you can always find a community to trade with if society fails. I know a few farm owners who will gladly accept silver and gold for food and livestock. :)
