300% collateral rate makes BitAsset lack of liquidity and depresses the prices of BTS, WHY the bug is not fixed immediately?

Suppose all fiat currencies get printed to toilet paper status and gold loses speculative value because Bitcoin exists.

My guess would be by that time Bitcoin would be stable, but if everybody is still using hyperinflated fiat Bitcoin adoption may not be enough to stabilize it yet.

This would leave the population with nothing stable to peg an asset against. What would we use? bitBread?

Stan, has there been any outreach to gold dealers like Mike Maloney for a UIA or bitGLD?  If I recall correctly, GoldMoney (James Turk) has a relationship with BitGold so it would be in our best interest to reach out to dealers once Graphine is ready.

That's a good idea.
But this is not a centralized community.
And no one should feel that they have to wait on us to do something.
Things like this happen most often when some community member takes the initiative.
I enjoy talking to numerous people who have done exactly that with opportunities they have seen.
Hopefully someone will pick up this ball and run with it.
I'll be happy to support their efforts.
Thanks.

Is there any prepared messages we can approach them with? It really needs to be professionally done when we approach businesses or we'll do more harm than good to our brand.
