If The Fed Stops, We Will Have A Complete Collapse

The Federal Reserve is not going to back off. The market is going to push it off. The Federal Reserve is going to do this until it cannot do it anymore. Because if it stops then we have a complete financial collapse.

Digital Currencies Backed By Gold?

I am already starting to hear about digital currencies that would be backed by gold, which would make them a more legitimate currency, more of a replica of the original paper currencies that were backed by gold.

Bitcoins: Don`t Have Any Value Absent Being A Medium Of Exchange

The main problem when you try to look at bitcoins versus gold, because people are saying, well, its just a new version of gold. For hundreds of years, maybe more, before gold was used as money it was already used, it was an acceptable highly coveted, valued commodity that people wanted. It eventually became used as money because it was a more manageable commodity than other commodities that were used as money in addition to gold. So gold just was the commodity that was best suited to also be money but it was first and foremost a commodity, a luxury good that was in demand all around the world.

The thing with bitcoin is nobody wanted bitcoin until it was invented for commerce. The sole purpose of bitcoin is to be used as money. But it does not have any value absent being a medium of exchange.
