Very good points man I always advocate owning both crypto and precious metals as well. Always wanted one of those 100oz bars loving the size and shine! One con to think about with gold/silver too is someone could rob you if they find your stash or you go to trade it when the "world is coming to an end." Just like crypto can be hacked or the power grid go down, there are ways to lose anything. Strict security measures and diversification are your best bet!
