>>538856036gypsy nigger
>>538855979Good i only collect shiny rocks that are my favorite color
I still find it pretty funny that something which was valuable enough to buy out entire kingdoms with it has turned completely worthless within a fairly short amount of time.Has there been anything else that saw such a sudden and strong collapse in value after enjoying millennia of being seen as a sign of wealth?
>>538856082Spices?
Good as it turns out a small group of early live owns like 90% of the trade and keep the prices artificially high. There is nothing rare about a diamond.
diamonds and gems are a scam; the only time they have worth is when it is attached to human misery. my mom has a pigeon blood ruby ring; she got it from her mother who got it back in the 50s or something. thing is, those rubys only come from i think two or 3 mines in burma....and they cut peoples hands off their for workers misconduct
>>538855979It was always a kike business for muh shiny rocks>Lev Leviev established LLD Diamonds and securing direct supply agreements with major producers like Alrosa in Russia and the Angolan government, bypassing De Beers' central selling organization. >Created his own monopoly on Angoloan diamonds
>>538856082Its about to be gold and silver.Hyper abundance cannot come soon enough.
>>538855979Cool. Do these sold on taobao?
>>538856082>pearls>clothing>wampum (lol)>certain meats and other foods
fuck (((deBeers))) and artificial scarecity.
>>538856105fair point, although I think it took longer for them to lose that value (as in, to go from peak to bottom)
Russia,India and Israel aren't going to like this
>>538856063Industrial diamonds were always a bigger market than roastie baubles. This is going to unleash a beautiful stone age

>>538856137Wouldn't you need asteroid mining for that? That doesn't sound like it would be profitable any time soon for now.I guess there's also a shitload of it dissolved in the oceans, but the amount of energy required to try and distract it just makes it not feasible.
this is very antisemitic
>>538856256Yet. They are gatekeeping nuclear fusion>Fast neutrons from deuterium-tritium fusion bombard mercury-198 in the reactor’s breeding blanket, converting it to mercury-197, which decays into gold-197
>>538856082>something which was valuable enough to buy out entire kingdoms with it has turned completely worthless within a fairly short amount of time.Fiat?
>>538855979oy vey!!!!
>>538855979Do people think women care about the diamonds themselves?They could already get one bigger and purer than any natural ones for a few hundred bucks. They will go into a rage if someone tries to give them one.The entire point is demanding something expensive and labor intensive while they themselves sit idle.
>>538856137You're a dumbass. Diamonds were never rare, their price was always artificial. Gold is actually rare and we can't just fabricate it. Silver is and always has been close to worthless, there's massive untapped supply of silver because the value is too low to bother harvesting it.
>>538855979Shit, more people will wake up to the actual good gems a d my favorites are gonna become more expensive.
discount diamonds are great to appease used up holes who deserve dirt and is simp-adjacent. Lets hope chinks start pumping out RAM and NAND for SSDs at rock bottom prices. I have been personally insulted but the unjustifiable prices DDR5 has been artificially and very hebrewically inflated to. I can dream but then if our dear Chairman can do something about GPUs that would be very 谢谢!
>>538856082Frankincense, perhaps?
>>538856353This is obvious, but women are too retarded to come up with something to replace the deBeers diamond on rings. They will not care about cheap diamonds, but they are too stupid to even understand it beyond a feeling of discontent.
>>538856353that's obvious, but it's not like they can tell a fake one apart from a natural one, kekif they demand to see a bill or know the exact price or anything, you just know that this one is a woman you should definitely evict from your life immediately.
I'm old enough to remember that rings for marriage were simple gold rings. Those diamond rings are a pure marketing product, made to fleece young men by having women have one of their stupid competitions about whose man can afford a bigger diamond. Fuck DeBeers, go back to gold rings.
>>538856036poor gypsy nation like Hungary can't afford any of that shit to begin with what difference does it make LMAO
>>538856376>worthless>value to low to bother miningwhich is it?
>>538855979lab diamonds had destroyed the diamond industry. there is no one anyone outside of a lab can tell the difference. praising/blaming the chinese is nonsense, it was white people laboratories who did it.a diamond bought now has no re-sale value because you can buy a new one cheaper. the only value in "old" diamonds is due to the piece of jewellery it is in as an object or because of it's association with a person or incident.

If I like the way sparkle rock looks, I will still like looking at it even if everyone else on Earth has one. The sunrise isn't beautiful because no one else gets to see it; it just is.>>538856063See this actually makes sense.

The beers is it? h/ave been keeping the price of diamonds intentionally high for years but withholding diamonds from the market. Rings lost most of their value as soon as you walk out of the shop. People will still pay to impress women and stuff but it doesn't really matter to most people about diamonds.

Actual diamond dealer here, AMA. I've posted on /pol/ twice before, some of you may remember me.`
I don't know what the news is about, but diamonds for industrial use have been inexpensive for a long time, thanks to that technique that didn't require high pressures.Gem-quality diamonds have remained valuable because no one wants to wear synthetic ones, even if the diamond is 100% identical to a natural one (in fact, it’s superior because it has fewer inclusions and imperfections). But for people, it’s like wearing a fake Rolex. And of course, the Jews at De Beers acting like Jews... nothing new on that front...
>>538869048>Gem-quality diamonds have remained valuable because no one wants to wear synthetic onesPeople don't give two shits and literally can't tell them apart. People still don't know any better to this day though because of the monopolies of the industry pushing one rock over another
>>538868591trve and based
>>538859226even silver has to be controlled to some extent so the worthless tag doesn't apply. If all of it was dug up then it would simply just be another material like copper etc and used in industry etc. So gold, silver are controlled somewhat with gold having the speculation and reserve status far more as it is rarer and easier to control/manipulate.

>>538855979The need for a diamond probably does push down population. It's a small thing, but I am glad if true. Xi had nothing to do with it though.
>>538869444silver is too aggregatethere is no controlling it's extraction. you mine anything you come out the other end with some appreciable volume of silverMany minerals are similar, but silver in particular is very evenly distributed.the only way you're impeding silver extraction is by stuffing it back into the earth or else collapsing all global industry such that mining ceases generally.

>>538858974>See this actually makes sense. More availability of diamonds could mean things that are actually useful becoming more available too. I only see benefit for me here.There's no lack of availability. Industrial diamonds are easily manufactured and cheap. They're also molecularly identical to natural diamonds. The only way to tell a natural diamond and a synthetic apart is the DeBeers stamp. The natural diamonds cost hundreds of times more.
>>538855979>"oh no, but its not the same because its literally perfect and doesn't have miniscule flaws you can only see with a microscope"The cope is unreal from gemfags.
>>538856353They'll want gold bands with a huge Rhodium Gem set in place of the diamond. Crystals are not forever only elements are not manufacturable. Though space and rockets an sheeet might mean elements become worthless someday too.
>>538856082>such a sudden and strong collapse in value after enjoying millennia of being seen as a sign of wealth?Diamonds have only been valuable in the last 100 years or so. People before that didn't want a boring-ass clear rock, they wanted ones with cool colours.
>>538856082Tulips
>>538869752Synthetic corundum (sapphire, ruby) is extremely cheap. The idea is that, as I mentioned in another post, people who want to wear gemstone jewelry probably won't want synthetic stones, likely because their value is so low. You can buy a huge, cut synthetic ruby to display on your shelf for a few dozen dollars (and chemically, it is the same mineral as the real one).

>>538870789AI On Cheap Diamonds: Extreme Heat Dissipation: Diamond conducts heat five times better than copper. Cheap diamond wafers will serve as the ultimate "heat sink" for AI data centers and smartphones, allowing chips to run at extreme speeds without melting.Diamond Semiconductors: Silicon is reaching its physical limits. Diamond can handle much higher voltages and temperatures, paving the way for "power electronics" that make electric vehicle chargers and power grids 90% smaller and more efficient.Everlasting Cutting Tools: Industrial drills, saws, and mining equipment currently use expensive diamond grit. Dirt-cheap diamond blades will drastically lower the cost of tunneling, highway construction, and recycling dense materials.Frictionless Machinery: Coating mechanical parts, bearings, and pistons in a microscopic layer of diamond will virtually eliminate friction. This will extend the lifespan of industrial pumps, wind turbines, and car engines indefinitely.Imperishable Medical Implants: Because diamond is pure carbon, it is completely biocompatible. Joint replacements, artificial heart valves, and bionic implants coated in diamond will never wear down or be rejected by the human body.Indestructible Optics: High-power industrial lasers, deep-sea cameras, and aerospace sensors require windows that won't scratch, warp, or crack under extreme pressure and heat. Cheap diamond panes will become the standard.Upgrading Everyday Consumer GoodsScratch-Proof Luxury Items: While full phone screens are hindered by brittleness, thin-film diamond coatings will become standard on smartwatch faces, premium camera lenses, and kitchen countertops to make them entirely immune to keys, sand, and blades.
