Btc bigger bubble than spy

I just don't think people understand math. With paper at least there is a physical limit to the amount of mass on the planet to print on. With crypos there is ZERO limit to the amount of math that can be used to construct these things. Witness all the bitcoin forks, hard branches, alt coins, etc., etc. If everyone can magically believe in JUST ONE crypto (bitcoin) and ignore all the rest, I suppose its possible it can be like its own fiat as long as everyone trusts in it and there are no defections from it. With the above said, please pass me some physical gold.

stop the shitcoin propaganda RV !!!

Why get bitcoin exposure when you can just get bitcoin?

BTC/USD -500.55 -6.29% Oct 23/19. HODL, LOL.

Interesting infomercial, but what’s with all the gold dissing and spurious claims? Hardly helps your cause. :/

lol, so many crybabies in here. i love it

Gold has always been the HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMP and ALWAYS will be. Cryptos, bitcoin, prisonchain (I mean blockchain) or whatever scheme you want to call it will prove to be the most repressive monetary scheme in the history of mankind. It's a shame all these supposed free market guys cannot see this aspect or even discuss it for that matter. While the dollar system is repressive too; the fact remains that physical cash dollars are still a freer system than this crypto garbage. There is a reason they want to eliminate physical cash and that's because it's a form of freedom. WAKE UP PEOPLE!!!! WAKE UP!!!!

What’s with RV’s OBSESSION. With Bitcoin??!!

I've read & heard a few comments about younger people aligned to just crypto and I beg to differ . I've recently had three conversations with young adults ranging from 18 to 21 about investing in the ''alternative currency space '' and it was far from crypto centric. I have 30 years of trading experience hence them asking me , I didn't direct the conversation just listened to their thoughts initially and basically they are all very aware of silver , gold and crypto and I think reflective of how they invest and will invest .

They appear to be building a digital casino. The big investors in the casino will win while the retail investors will mostly lose.

This is criminal!!! Sell BTC at market prices to wealthy investors so they can resell it at a massive premium to retail schmucks. I don’t know how this guy can sleep at night.

I've got ten different colors of tulips. Which color would you like?

Enough with the bitcoin already.

RV has beaten bitcoin to death over the last week and half. Don’t need this many videos to explore this one asset class.

One of the first RV videos I choose to cut short. Non objective, self promoting and just plain annoying to listen to

Doesn’t paying someone a 2% management fee to hold your bitcoin entirely defeat the purpose of owning bitcoin? The fact that it’s held in a trust just slams the point home that bitcoins last and only use case is speculation.

I've held some GBTC for a long time. It's not paid off like GLD, but remain hopeful for the long term. But I've failed at uranium investments over the long term too and "hopeful" is not a strategy. I hate averaging down. Still, this video was a nice description of what they are trying to do and affirms why I was interested in the first place. I love that RealVision has made the effort to cover the breadth of the market. Nothing in this video would make me rethink gold allocations, just as I don't think gold replaces equity markets, which is of course not the purpose of gold. If we have not educated our children about the difference between trading and investing or the role of various asset classes, then we have failed them. I can only hope that my heirs can filter out the rampant product marketing phrases in all these crypto segments. Maybe not "only", as I can also dictate asset allocations in their trusts :D.

I am a Baby Boomer but I can definitely see the space of BTC and other cryptos growing stronger with GenX, Millennials, etc in the changing world ahead. Especially as 5G starts to roll out throughout the world, it will drive the acceptance and use of BTC more and more. I can certainly understand how a young person who receives gold as an inheritance, might convert some of the gold into BTC and other cryptos. I don't see them receiving cryptos and BTC and converting that into gold, 1) because the baby boomers and won't be transferring BTC and cryptos to them, and 2) because this younger generation is getting very comfortable with the idea of holding and working with digital everything. A recent study showed that only 10% of baby boomers were likely to look into cryptocurrencies, while 35-45% of millenials stated they would consider owning cryptos in the future.

BTC is unstoppable and the best investment for the next decade (just like it was the last 10 years now - no reason for the next run to be different at all). Excellent seeing more Bitcoin content here.

So let me get this straight. Gold may not last the test of time as a store of value even though it's been an effective store of value for something like 6000 years. But somehow bitcoin is going to last the test of time because it's been around for something like 10 years. I am not a bit coin hater. But when I hear 'this time is different' comments from someone who might be younger than some of my underwear and is obviously just promoting his company's ETF, it's hard to take the interview seriously. Can we please move forward from the bitcoin promoters and start talking about economics and financial markets? This interview sucked.

I would say that the fact that gold does not track with millennial's is wrong since millennial's will change their preferences with age. I am a millennial and prefer Bitcoin but I like gold as well, I just think that the younger generation does not understand money all to well in general. Gold does not require continued investment of electricity to maintain its existence, gold has been battle tested for thousands of years, and cant have its function-ability distributed through 51 % attacks. These are golds advantages. Bitcoins advantages are that it is more fungible and portable, that it has a max supply cap that is known in advance, that it is programmable and can be incorporated into other electronic services and that it scores higher as an unconfiscatable asset class across space. Any rational person who does not have a strong mental aversion due to bias or cognitive dissidence, would rationally say I want to own both Bitcoin and Gold. Where they might differ is in the percentage allocation between the two. I choose 90 % BTC 10 % gold simply because I think BTC has higher return ability due to smaller market cap, and I am young and have along time horizon. A older person might choose another allocation based on a shorter time horizon, that is perfectly natural. Grayscales method of putting gold against Bitcoin feels like a bad marketing strategy honestly.

GBTC constant premium to Net Asset Value, along with its massive trading volumes, provides nearly a risk-free opportunity for sophisticated institutions to sell GBTC short and buy long physical or futures, de facto taxing retail investors by capturing a rich statistical arbitrage which is far beyond anything found in traditional investment markets. This financial activity creates a flywheel effect which benefits Barry Silbert's colleagues in a variety of ways... just an excerpt of the full critique by Roy Sebag.
