The More Things Change...
The more they stay the same...
This feels appropriate given the absolute beat down crypto in general is taking right now.
Despite all the massive leaps computing, transportation, and medicine have taken over the past 100 years or so the things pictured above have barely change in several thousand years.
Cutting tools are virtually unchanged even from when they were made of stone.
And precious metals have been valued as real money for just about as long.
In a world that's ever changing it can be reassuring to have some things around that have remained constant for many thousands of years... Silver and Steel.
Human beings love to feel safe and safety, for the last 5,000 years, was silver/gold and good weapons to protect the metals.

Still a lot of safety and security to be had in those three things!!
