Ethereum aspires to have fun.
- bhaak 6y agoTry transferring your magical internet money when there's no infrastructure left. There is a narrow gap where Bitcoin or Gold could potentially be useful if some kind of breakdown happens. But if it's global, you can forget that anybody will be interested in them. Bitcoin as well as Gold are pretty useless in the zombie apocalypse.

- zepto 6y agoGold is actually great in the zombie apocalypse. It’s portable and you can trade it without infrastructure. Unlike Bitcoin. It’s value during a collapse is based on the idea that there will be a future recovery of some kind, but we don’t have to recover very far before gold is good, whereas we need to get back to the level of silicon fabs before Bitcoin can be useful again. If it’s really an ‘apocalypse’ that we can’t recover from, then you only need one bullet.
