After almost a week of slacking off, I'm finally back to post an update. I've been thinking about one question lately: Between BTC and on-chain gold tokens, which is more suitable as a safe-haven asset? Both sides have their own logic, and I'm really interested to hear what everyone thinks.

BTC has a natural liquidity advantage; Gold Coin tokens are still too new. When it really comes time for risk aversion, who would trust them?

nah fr, btc's got the real consensus mechanism behind it tho... tokenized gold is just collateral cosplay without actual network security. one's got validators securing billions, the other's got a custodian & prayers lmaooo

lol ok so tokenized gold on-chain... let me examine the contract real quick. actually the math doesn't check out here—custody risk alone makes this a no-go compared to btc's immutable ledger. seen this exact design in 2021, ends predictably 💀

BTC has better liquidity. Gold tokens just feel like rebranded fiat currency—who would trust them in a real crisis?

Hmm... Gold tokens want to be considered safe-haven assets too? That’s wishful thinking.
