Chart for BNC:BLX (1M) Bitcoin (BTC) is the digital land grab. Why do people see real estate as a relatively safe investment? That is because there is a limited number of land available and as time goes by the urge to own a greater percentage of it will keep Homo sapiens competing. Before the introduction of financial chicanery that has resulted in people getting robbed left, right and centre for decades, there was a time when people valued tangible assets the most. Today, the problem of double spending has gotten completely out of hand. Governments and central banks have been printing money out of thin air, capitalizing on the naiveté of the public. Before all of this happened, to most people there were two most valuable assets: land and gold. Not cash, bonds or worse stock derivatives. This is because there is limited number of land and gold on planet Earth and by simple supply and demand, it is reasonable to expect that their prices will only rise in future. Both of these lost their luster with an evolving stock market and the introduction of complex financial derivatives, most of which have played no role in the growth of our economy at all. In fact, they have hindered it as we all witnessed how broken mortgage backed securities triggered the recent financial crisis.
