First gold purchase

Buying gold as a bitcoiner feels like buying a DVD at the Mediamarkt today for the next movie night


I did it anyway 🤷‍♂️

If you want to reinforce this feeling, buy the gold physically. It's like a VHS tape 😄

Buying a gold "certificate" as a Coiner must feel like buying a pirated DVD at a flea market.

Especially now that the physical warehouses have been emptied...

@Epi Is it not physically covered? In my mind, the warehouse should not be empty and should be replenished. Or do you mean something else?

@SchlaubiSchlumpf There is a massive run on stocks at the moment. Delivery times in London are 5 months or so.
Anyway, physical cover is one of those things. It exists on paper. But does it actually get delivered when you put your mind to it?
I only know stories that it didn't work and none that it worked once. 🤷

@Epi I don't actually know any stories. Neither in one direction nor in the other. (Well, I think I once read that someone had something delivered, but...)

@SchlaubiSchlumpf Paper gold also remains a bet on availability.
It's hard to imagine what would happen to the certificates if the warehouses were actually empty. 😳

@Epi yup. When I have time, I'll have a look at what requirements have to be met here as an issuer.
Since they are explicitly supposed to be physically backed, I would have expected that no new certificates would be distributed without cover. I'll have a look at their paper situation when I get the chance.

@SchlaubiSchlumpf Feel free to report! It would interest me and probably many others too.

@SchlaubiSchlumpf would actually interest me too.
Is that a certificate?

Gold does not generate cash flows and is therefore pure price speculation

@Xander13 That's exactly why I want it.
