I trade Bitcoin, Robert.  I don't touch gold.

Depending on the country you live in I would reconsider that. If not gold checkout silver, copper, or nearly anything that would have actual use in production. There are a lot of "what if" situations where all-in bag holding of bitcoin could seriously leave you in a bad spot but far fewer of those potential situations when talking about precious or industrial metals.

I trade Bitcoin, I don't hoard it.  Sure, gold has intrinsic value, but that's an insignificant fraction of its price.
I don't follow the gold market.  Just not my thing.
