Put BTC thumbdrive and bricks of Gold in your suitcase and see how long and far you can carry them. Especially when "the wolves are at your door".
I'll give you more extreme example: imagine the entire electrical power grid of the planet Earth goes down and compare bitcoin and gold then. Good example? Makes sense?
are you really implying that your BTC will be lost once your thumbdrive is destroyed????? Dude, seriously? I thought you knew how this stuff works
no...the blockchain is already synched with a satelite. Even when all power goes down, the people who survived the chaos, did not get killed by looters, died in hospitals and so on will have access to their BTC once they established an uplink to the satelite. Right now, everybody can buy a satelite receiver and access the blockchain. You don't even need internet. Guys please, please, please with a cherry on top. Stop posting bullshit and at least read a couple of articles. All your worries have already been adressed by people who are 100x smarter than you.
So why did those hacks of some of those crypro exchanges matter last year or 2, where lots of cryptos were stolen?
What are you smoking? Are you saying you can access your coins without your key? Whatever you are smoking give me some..
who would be so dumb and leave the keys on a hard drive. I could engrave them in your stupid gold bar or tattoo them to your ass. Some people etch them in titanium and burry them. FOLKS, BTC ARE JUST A DATABASE ENTRY. THEY ARE NOT PROGRAMS THAT CAN BE DELETED OR LOST. If you are an idiot, save your keys on a text file on your iPad and give that to your 7y old to play with. It is unbelievable how people puke out their opinions everywhere without having a single clue of what they are talking about
