Yes, I visit Zerohedge daily, but don't post there (I do agree with most your comments I read there, DoChenRollingBearing).
I love gold, and have a Physical stack of Gold maples and krugerrands. I have read all of FOFOA's papers.
But i have more faith in bitcoin then in gold to be honest. Gold will continue to get raped by the banksters. Although they will try to do this with BTC, at the end of the day it is more easy to take delivery of BTC then it is of gold, so it will be harder to fractional reserve (or rehypothecate) it.
I own some IAU, and am planning to buy more, but I wouldn't think of buying real gold and storing it in my house. The ETF seems safer and more convenient.
This is exactly the problem with gold. They can just sell it many times over when nobody takes delivery.
