The problem with GOLD - Deepstash

The problem with GOLD

Gold is not a perfect store of value:

  • It is difficult to transport. During wars many people lost theyir gold savings.
  • It's difficult to store. Special facilities are needed but even then history is filled with examples of government confiscations.
  • It's difficult to verify. Special knowledge is required to test the purity of the metal.
  • It's hard to divide.
