‘Gold is for Hauling, Bitcoin is for Knowing’ – Samson Mow’s Take

by

Samson Mow, the brainy bloke at the helm of JAN3, has a rather shiny insight about Bitcoin (BTC) and gold (XAU). While the world loves to pit them against each other like it’s the next great wrestling match, Mow says there’s a rather brainy difference. With Bitcoin, it’s all in your head, not in your hands, unlike gold which is a bit of a dead weight.

Bitcoin: It’s All in Your Head, Gold: It’s All in Your Hands

Now, here’s the kicker: Bitcoin (BTC) is like a secret handshake you do with your mind, whereas gold (XAU) is like lugging around a heavy suitcase. You carry gold, you own it. You remember Bitcoin’s secret code, and voilà, you’re the proud owner of digital bling.

Gold is a bearer asset. If you physically possesses it, you own it.

Bitcoin is a knower asset. If you know the seed phrase, you own it.

Mow, the Bitcoin bard with a following that could start its own country, dropped this knowledge bomb on March 15, 2025, to his 340,000 disciples. He also mentioned that the very idea of “bearing” assets is getting a bit blurry around the edges.

Bitcoin (BTC), often dubbed “digital gold,” is like the cool kid at school who doesn’t need to carry anything but knows all the best secrets. And just like gold (XAU), it’s not just printed out of thin air like some sad little fiat notes.

As previously reported by U.Today, Mow is the cheerleader for the idea that Bitcoin (BTC) could one day be worth a cool million bucks. Imagine that!

He also chatted up Bitcoin (BTC) and gold (XAU) in the same breath as the U.S. Federal Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, which sounds like a club where digital coins get to lounge around.

Gold Prices Soar, But Bitcoin? Not So Much.

While the world is doing its best impression of a yo-yo, gold (XAU) is standing tall like a shiny beacon of hope. It’s hit a record high of $3,001.30, making it the heavyweight champion of the investment world.

Ross Norman, the head honcho at Metals Daily, says gold’s price is like a rocket with more fuel in the tank, likely to soar to $3,200 by the end of 2025.

Bitcoin (BTC), on the other hand, is like a sleepy bear that just can’t be bothered to wake up. It’s currently trading at $83,900, which is a bit of a snooze fest compared to its previous highs. The strategic reserve talk? Yawn.

The Cryptocurrency Fear and Greed Index is currently hanging out in the “fear” zone at 46/100. 🙄
