All the gold in the world is actually only this much.
All of humanity’s $BTC comes to just 210000000000.
Think there’s a lot of gold?
In fact, all the gold humans have mined over thousands of years, melted together, would make a cube just 22.6 meters on each side.
Earth doesn’t produce gold itself. The gold on its surface came from meteorites crashing down more than 4 billion years ago; gold from even farther away came from neutron stars colliding—two stars smashing apart and scattering gold weighing more than several Earths. Humans have mined down to 4 kilometers underground, and the deepest drilling has reached only 12 kilometers.
Can gold be made? A European lab used a particle collider to turn lead into gold, producing just 0.000000000029 grams in 4 years. A bit too costly to make gold that way.
That famous line from middle-school civics textbooks still rings true: “Gold is not naturally money, but money is naturally gold.”
So, besides buying $BTC , hurry and stock up on gold.
