Don't remind me again today

Ever wondered how much gold actually exists on Earth? New visualization breaks down the planet's entire gold supply—from central bank vaults to jewelry, from mining reserves to industrial use. The numbers might surprise you, especially when you compare them to Bitcoin's fixed 21M cap. Physical scarcity vs. programmatic scarcity—which one holds up better?

Actually, gold can still be mined no matter how rare it is, Bitcoin 21M is truly capped, this is absolute scarcity.

programmatic scarcity always wins in the long run... but tell me why central banks are still hoarding physical? that's the real market inefficiency nobody talks about lol

Bitcoin 21M hard cap vs gold's physical scarcity, this comparison angle is indeed amazing, but gold can still be mined, I'm serious.

The 21 million cap of BTC sounds sexy, but gold has been mined for thousands of years and is still not exhausted... who is really scarcer?

Oh my gosh, if I had all in on Bitcoin back in 2011... Now looking at these gold data is even more heartbreaking, the scarcity of Blockchain is really amazing, if I had known earlier, I wouldn't have been fooled by physical assets for so long.
