RE: Silver: "Triple Digit" Silver?

You are viewing a single comment's thread:

I wonder what your plans are about starting to stack on silver and gold (where one of @gratefuleveryday's methods is simply to inspect his change for precious metals). πŸ€“

Super rare finding silver in change, especially as silver coins have been flying away from the islands for years. !BBH

You getting silver coins according to your original post must have been great luck !INDEED. 😎 Your clause "silver coins have been flying away" is an interesting figurative speech. πŸ˜†πŸ˜… !WEIRD !HOPE !PIZZA

Perhaps just store a piece of silver coin (or gold coin if possible) so that you technically started stacking. πŸ˜†πŸ˜…

Yes, that could work in terms of logistics. So far all investments have gone into Hive, and I have several more to do, so 'spare' money for it is a bit challenging. πŸ˜πŸ™πŸ’šβœ¨πŸ€™

Well, I've worked with what I've had available, and that I've found useful. I don't own a lot of physical things any more. I did just realize, however, that I could acquire gold and silver on Qortal. πŸ˜πŸ™πŸ’šβœ¨πŸ€™

Because they're directly connected to Qortal stores, that accept QORT and other crypto, and that sell and ship various types of gold and silver to people worldwide. πŸ˜πŸ™πŸ’šβœ¨πŸ€™

I imagine that someone needs to have a lot of accumulated QORT tokens just to buy silver (and more with gold) !INDEED! πŸ’ΈπŸ€― Perhaps most of the sales would be done using other cryptocurrencies. πŸ€“

I imagine so. I haven't looked at the stores yet, but I've seen people talking about them. I know one sells goldbacks, which is kind of cool. Well, I don't know about most, but multiple other crypto assets can be used in Qortal. πŸ˜πŸ™πŸ’šβœ¨πŸ€™

With "goldbacks", are you referring to gold that looks like paper like what @gratefuleveryday published? 🀯 That looks like a good way to somehow represent QORT tokens in the form of USD. πŸ€“

People could easily assume that Bitcoin (at least in the form of Lightning) is supported as one of the "other crypto assets" on #Qortal. πŸ˜…

Yep, that's correct, and they're quite beautiful. I know a few people that are collecting them.

BTC is an asset that has a wallet on Qortal, so yep, it can be used, though there is no lightning network involved, which is why people on Qortal don't generally use BTC for payments. LTC is much more heavily used. πŸ˜πŸ™πŸ’šβœ¨πŸ€™

Since #Qortal has a wallet support for BTC, then that should mean there will be no need for the Lightning Network within the Qortal platform because sending between BTC wallets internally on Qortal will have minimum to zero fees. πŸ€―πŸ˜…

I don't think that's true, since even though there is BTC support, it's hardly ever used, because BTC fees are way too high. LTC is far preferred. πŸ˜πŸ™πŸ’šβœ¨πŸ€™

Do you mean that the #Qortal network does not wrap BTC on its network, and !INSTEAD Qortal users send BTC to one another directly on the Bitcoin blockchain itself? πŸ€―πŸ˜…

Correct, there is no wrapping (yet) on Qortal. Qortal just has BTC wallets integrated. πŸ˜πŸ™πŸ’šβœ¨πŸ€™

I would assume that it is also the case even if the server you are going to host the node is free of charge, and even if you are not required to put your private keys there. πŸ§˜β€β™‚οΈπŸ€“
