Real gold bugs are not going to sell their gold, just for a price fluctuation, they are probably planning to hold for the entire lives, so those that are making the switch are speculators trying to get more profits, I dont blame them just stating things as they are.
@andrei56 you got it

yes the plot is all about to pay the debt of nature finally filthy ritch, marvelling about where live has been gone nearby.
Confessions of a bug: I'm doing both. Bitcoins and Bullion coins. For reasons like diversification, and different timescales of course. Both have their advantages and handicaps. On my personal ranking gold and bitcoin are playing on a similar level both aren't infinitely inflateable.
