 and the narrative function of cryptos (betting on growth, innovation). Both can be right… or both can be wrong.
Gold doesn’t promise miracles: it offers something much more basic and powerful psychological stability. You can touch it, lock it up, and it doesn’t depend on a server, an exchange, or a connection. For many, sleeping peacefully is worth as much as higher returns. Also, in extreme moments (crisis, hyperinflation, financial blackouts) tangibility weighs heavily.
Crypto offer narrative: decentralization, innovation, potential for huge returns. Don’t forget that market history is full of winners who seemed impossible companies and technologies that changed industries. If mass adoption, infrastructure, and regulation align, the crypto ecosystem’s multiplier effect could yield returns that eclipse gold in certain periods.
🚨 But beware: potential is not a guarantee. Volatility, hacks, regulations, platform bankruptcies, and mass psychology can turn a rise into a vertiginous fall. Gold has a social “glue” everyone understands its value. Cryptos still need stable legitimacy and reliable bridges to the real economy.
The question isn’t necessarily “gold or crypto?” but “what is each for in your life?”.
Those seeking peace of mind will sleep better with part of their wealth in something solid. Those willing to take risks to grow can play a portion in cryptos. Diversifying isn’t betrayal, it’s strategy.
Imagine two worlds:
in one, the crypto narrative wins and part of global savings relocates online spectacular rises but with nightmare peaks. In the other, gold regains value due to systemic distrust and people prefer what they can touch. Both scenarios are plausible. Here comes the debate: do you prefer the roller coaster that can change lives or the tranquility that avoids sleepless nights?
I don’t bet everything on one. I want to win without losing my calm. But I want to know what you would do. Would you let yourself be swept away by the crypto wave or cling to gold like holding a promise?
