      It is a very good conductor of electricity but that means little for why the ancients valued it, they liked it for a different property. I am surprised joe doesnt know why ancients liked it.

      Silver and gold doesn’t rust. Is easy to smelt and work with. Has antimicrobial properties and are super conductors. This combined with being rare and useful in jewelry. Not like a ruby that is only used for jewelry. If you have a gold coin it’s still the same 1,000 years later. What else could you buy that doesn’t decay or rust? Hence it’s used as money.

Makes the magnetic like float. Also goldl It’s very dense, making it easily recognizable when holding it also, it’s a fantastic conductor of electricity. Also if you heat it up or cool it down it retains that temperature for a long time excellent insulator.

The use cases are many but unless we are sending the technology to space or extremely high tech devices requiring zero failures in quality control the metal is best kept in storage. Wait for the future, Gold will step into its use case on a quantum technology product.

    For money to work and be stable, it has to be rare, durable, divisible, fungible, and portable. Gold hits all of these out of the park. When we all agree to use something as money, it has to have rules and limitations which are super difficult to violate. Gold enforces those rules with real authority. You can't print gold like dollars. You can't flood the money supply because it's so rare. Gold gets its value because of the time and effort humans have to expend to collect and refine it. Until you start the usual f4ckery i.e. diluting the purity of gold coins (as they did when Rome was collapsing) it is inflation resistant like no other means of storing the value of our productive efforts. Gold is not even actually indigenous to Earth: All of the gold found on Earth came from the debris of dead stars... showered here, not originating here. As the Earth formed, heavy elements such as iron and gold sank toward the planet's core. If no other event had occurred, there would be no gold in the Earth's crust. But around 4 billion years ago, Earth was bombarded by asteroid impacts. These impacts stirred the deeper layers of the planet and forced some gold into the mantle and crust.

    The amount of gold in the world is "only" the amount that has been mined to date "so far"! It doesn't mean there isn't another 10 times as much or more still in the ground. As soon as price doubles or more, don't you think the mines would be much more active producing more and thus reduce the price again? Don't be fooled.
