The moment technology allows us to mass produce gold your networth will be wiped clean. Feeling anxious now?

Do you have any clue what that would take? It would, unironically, be orders of magnitude more efficient to mine asteroids for it than to do so. It will never become easier to make our own than to simply extract it from our environment.

Sounds like cope because your portfolio is being out performed by a rock

Gold’s usage in electronics incentivizes bringing the cost down through mining, either here or in space, or through modern-day alchemy. And any criticism you can apply to bitcoin, you can apply to gold. It’s the same fucking thing: people assign it value. But let the rock collectors have their day in the sun, listening to all of those Fox News commercials on buying gold have finally paid off.
>>
>>61488748
It can also be mined out of the ground much more cheaply and efficiently moron

so I take it you were the “smart money” holding PMs and gold stocks on the lead up to this uptrend I take it? So what’s the problem?

>>61488814
It can already be done in small quantities for a high price, but I’ve never heard of any emerging technology that hasn’t become cheaper over time. It’s hilarious you think that multi-trillion dollar corporations are going to get cornholed by boomer rock holders for a long period. Here’s a quick history lesson: remember aluminum? It was more valuable than gold or silver. Only Napoleon’s most cherished guests could use the aluminum cutlery. Then it became easier to extract, and now you cover your leftovers in it. Your “precious metal” is trending toward zero in the long run. But enjoy your day in the sun, your bags were heavy.

You do understand they currently don’t even know where gold comes from for sure. It’s theorised Is synthesised in kilanovas or magnetar stellar quakes. The it rained down onto the primordial planet from the interstellar medium.

The energy in these events being many many orders of magnitude past what we have on earth. Including nuclear weapons. Assuming that theory is even correct.

So gold is still a mystery in physics.

the point of gold is that you can't fake it
you have to mine it

if you substitute mining it off the ground for a chemical process, you didn't really change anything

producing gold in an industrial scale would make it worth more

Exactly the same is done with diamonds. Lab-grown ones are not only indistinguishable from natural diamonds to the naked eye for jewelry, but are also suitable for industrial use.

We could make computers without gold I’m sure. That’s not it makes up a significant portion of computers now, otherwise we wouldn’t throw them in the trash when they get old.

FUN FACT:

Everytime you see vitriolic anti precious metal threads on /biz/ they come from the equivalent of Indian call centres. True!

The crypto industry astroturfs global branding, keeping brands of crypto in the forefront of consumers minds. This very board is one of thousands on spreadsheets that are dispersed to pajeets in sweatshop like office centres across India where they are paid a pittance to discuss widget coin X.

In the last 12 months, due to the searing rise of precious metals, these Jeetshops have been handed a change of narrative from their employers in SF, they are now paid to run down and challenge all precious metals discuss they see online, take screenshots, and are paid per result.

So just remember, everytime you see an anon insulting you for buying silver or gold online, it is just a DO NOT REDEEM Jeet doing his day job.

>>61487482
The technology is already here but it is suppressed by the BIG OIL, they dont want to usher in nuclear fusion because it will be another internet moment, so much freedom and power that they lose control and therefore lose control over the masses. My point against such people will be that, why fight for the little on this blue planet when we can progress in 10 years time and farm other planets?

>>
>>61492125
You need like 1 gram of gold for 10000 computers.
Almost 99% is copper
And you could make all parts made of gold from silver. Computer lifetime would drop from 20-40 years to 10-15, but most computers are irrelevant in 5-10 so it does not matter.
Also you could cover all parts, so they dont get contact whit air and all gold could be replaced whit copper.

Gold is literally not needed. Only some space stuff needs it but that amount can be stolen from grandmoms jewlery box.

Sometimes materials are used because they are easy. If they would make computers merged in oil it would get cheap in few years and there would be little to no corrosion from metals that corrode when contacted whit o2 or H2O.

When merged you dont need other cooling so you would need less parts and it might actually get cheaper in time. Using gold is just blast from the past.

Retard. It takes 2 neutron stars colliding to create gold, and even then it only happens 50% of the time.

Yes, if you use an insane amount of energy and a gigantic particular accelerator, you can create an atom of gold. If we were to run that continuously, you could create a kilogram of gold in a few trillion years.
>>
>>61492425
If gold had high demand right now, we would run out straight away, and then there wouldn't be anymore to mine.

When you buy gold, you are storing its future industrial use for the rest of time. This is what makes it valuable. If I sell you an expensive glass of wine, it may never be drunk in your lifetime, but it will appreciate in value and you could trade it later in life for something else you want.

This is why the world is so screwed with silver and platinum. Both have high industrial demand now, and so we are going to run out of them in our lifetimes.

Platinum is a funny one.
Yes it structurally has all the hallmarks of unobtainium, but weirdly for its industrial uses in automotive it’s completely swapable with palladium.
So a juggling act occurs, when one is cheaper that is the one utilised in carburettors.
If palladium didn’t exist we’d be fucked however.
