how do you imagine that the cost of gold on the open market and the cost of mining the marginal ounce*risk diverges?
The cost of mining gold and silver is obviously not the same.
- jevgeni 4y agoSo it's not a pure energy cost of mining now?
- nazgulnarsil 4y agodo you imagine the energy cost of mining gold and silver to be the same? in this world, do you imagine that silver is unprofitable to mine or that gold is wildly profitable to mine? Maybe you should be buying gold mining stocks.
- jevgeni 4y agoI'm fine on my investments, thank you. Since silver is often the byproduct of mining gold, the energy price should be pretty close, I'd think... Crypto-bros reinventing the (train-wreck of) labour theory of value is my favorite genre of HN comments.
