Fiat —> Crypto —> Silver&Gold —> Repeat

in #steemsilvergold6 years ago (edited)

There has been a lot of action lately in the crypto world, while Gold&Silver just seem to go down and suck harder! (Ahem, no pun intended...)

I have been farting around the crypto space for years, doing deals, buying hardware, trading and consulting, and just basically having a great time while at the same time making lots of money.

Ever since i was a kid money has fascinated me and i can distinctly remember thinking: what if you could sell money!!!? But as a kid i realized how absurd that idea was...

Well apparently not so absurd!!!

I have always liked coins, and silver, and when i first started stacking years ago it ignited a passion in me for understanding the forces that govern the way money works: it’s ebbs and flows and value, and even how it is conjured into being by the powers that be (i.e. Central Banks).

When bitcoin came along and the penny finally dropped — 21 million coins only vs 7 billion debt slaves — i knew i had found something special. This was pure currency with zero third party and immune to manipulation. I was hooked!

Fast forward 4years and the space has really developed. Me ol’ Ma is buying litecoin and even taxi drivers are pontificating the merits of it, all the while MSM predicts its imminent demise. It’s gone Ape!

Cut to just last month when some guy i met on a social network asked for some help getting exposure to an esoteric alt coin. Well, i did what i do and i got this guy hooked up; and, i took a chance on a pony that looked really great — overlooked, but ready to run!

That guy was @raybrockman, and that pony was POE...

As Ray has said, and i too have offered: if you’re not taking some off the table you’re not really making anything. There is a great desire to just “let it ride...” as if, no matter what you got today, if you just hold it long enough you will become rich. That’s nonsense. You must have a plan, and that plan is a must. Maybe it is your plan to sell out when you go x10 or x100 or x1,000, whatever... but built into that plan should be some diversification. Or at least that’s what i think...

So here’s where the rubber meets the road:

Last month i bought some POE after Ray alerted me to it, and i helped Ray get some of it right on his Jaxx wallet — sent it right from here to there like i was texting him! — And today i took some off the table.

I’ll mention the logo in a minute, but for right now, here’s the loot:

As well, this was a private sale, so i split the spread from VBCE and managed to get 102oz of silver (the last 2 were Wood Bison’s) and a 1oz Lady Fortuna! (@bearone, thinking of you darling! But no you can’t have it 😜)
I paid $23 cad for the SML’s and $1,650 for the Pamp. 4k worth of the shiny for about $500 invested 1month ago!!!

The crytpos can really kiss your ass or kick your ass — it’s a fucking fight club!

This time around it was ol’ Ray who helped me out. And hilariously, i suggested POE to some of my friends up here who have also done very well. I told them that i was going to send a Thank you down to Alabama, and 3 of them have said they will help to add to weight!!! It may take a few days to get all organized, but the point of it is the opportunity that is available to all of us here on ssg. Tips, support, education, comraderie, it’s all here. And there’s some good laughs too!

So to tie in my title here, i will suggest: take some cash, get some into this game, turn it into PM’s, rinse and repeat...

I know getting the fiat can be difficult — it is for me anyways, but there is opportunity here in abundance. Just think about it and you’ll find a way. Be active! And go and get it. Hunt it down like you’re a killer whale — no one is giving Killer Whales free seals...they WORK for it. And they look good doing it too.

For that matter, look at Stax — she looks great! and she’s working that moneymaker 24/7!!!

How ‘bout #steemsilvergold? Everybody is stacking like their future’s depend on it...

Even us crazy Canucks are mad-stacking fools — and we have the luxury and freedom to buy 99.99 PM’s for near spot with zero tax. If you’re one of us find out where!

I also want to say a “Hell Yeah!” To membership. More people are voting on Stax and her daily figures are really adding up. And also, great new content from ssg vets and noobs all the time. My VP dipped into low 30’s couple days ago ‘cause i just couldn’t stop dishing out the votes — you guys and gals rule!

Keep on Stacking! ...like your future’s depend on it.

Cheers! from @thedamus

What an inspirational story. It brought a tear to my eye!

Crypto to Metal will go down as one of the brilliant moves of the century, and you just hit a Barry Bonds style home run!

Congrats!

How about from Coinage to Metal...???
@pocketechange

coinage = fiat

Everything = Fiat... lol...
@pocketechange

Incorrect. Gold&Silver have intrinsic value, as well as holding proven purchase power throughout the millenia.

Every other example of “coinage” has failed miserably... just go to any coin shop and rummage through the boxes of old shitty coins that have no pm’s in them and you may soon realize the flaws in your eponymous theory.

Why would US coinage be any different? It has been losing value just as fast as fiat bills have, and probably quicker insofar as no one but panhandlers wanna carry that shite around...

The metal within our Coinage has been losing Value... But right now, it still takes 100 CENTS to obtain a Dollar that only has the Purchasing Power of ONE CENT... After the Reset, we will get a New (Debt Free) Dollar, and guess what...??? The New Dollar will have the Purchasing Power of 100 CENTS, not just ONE CENT like the Federal Reserve (Debt) Notes currently have... It will still cost 100 CENTS to obtain one... You won't be able to say that about Federal Reserve Notes.. It will take 100 dollars in Federal Reserve Notes to obtain one New Dollar... A Reset of our U.S. Coinage along with a New Dollar is Justified, because of the loss in the Buying Power of the Federal Reserve Note Dollar... And yes, I also STACK Silver & Gold...
@pocketechange

Okay, whatever bro, good luck with that. It sounds unlikely to me but stranger things have probably happened. It just seems like a kind of “fringe” theory to base your entire Steemit persona around.
It’s an open platform though so keep on rockin it and see if it’ll roll.

Actually, my Theory existed before I ever heard of Steemit... It's probably stupid of me to even post such a Theory... I should have just kept it all to myself, sit back and watch the events unfold... I realize how insane it all seems... It must have been just as hard to tell people the Earth was Round, when everyone knew it was Flat... One thing's for sure...
I have a lot of Experience & Practice, defending my Theory... I actually avoid talking about it in public... Thanks for commenting back... Your opinion "is" important to me...
@pocketechange

Holy shit you made enough to get a freaking Starbucks. Lmfao.. BOOM, now that's what I am talking about. Crypto's = silver= security= long-term wealth. Dude you said "bring the truck cause I got some shit to haul." I know that I have said it a lot, but thanks for the help bud, it really took it to the next level for me.... STACK THAT SHIT BROTHER. oh and thanks for the shout out.....

Ga-Ga-Ga-Gangnam style!

👊😎

Slow clap and a dilly dilly for Ray!

Care to pick up a hitch-hiker...???
