silver or gold are useless
In reality, it's the exact opposite. It's digital shitcoins that have zero use or value because they're fake commodities, while real commodities actually do have value. Digital shitcoins are just another Keynesian con game. The definition of Keynesianism is basically a completely arbitrary system composed of magic numbers where someone decides to play god and unilaterally adjusts random sliders in various positions for no reason other than he's pretending to be the god of everyone else.
It doesn't matter if the system is done by manual central banker manipulation, AI manipulation, or algorithmic manipulation, it's all the same thing - a completely artificial fugazi with no connection to the real world. While also lacking any form of Schelling point and require force or massive manipulation and fraud in suppressing all alternatives in order to try and force everyone to use the same completely artificial, Keynesian system. Otherwise when you attempt to hoard all 21 million coins, I'd have the ability to completely ignore you and create my own system out of thin air or use something else and you'd have zero power over anyone.
