Gold is only valuable because the government has prohibited its mining. The amount needed for electronics is negligible. Bitcoin believers? I think people need more than pure greed but historically that has always worked, Bitcoin will evolve or be conquered.

Interesting point. Gold is also problematic as easily-mined gold is no longer possible in most places. To extract the remaining gold, creates significant environmental harm from acidification and toxic mercury releases.
