Buy bitcoin overtakes buy gold when it comes to search

November 27, 2017 by Raymond Hackney

Bloomberg published a piece today that dealt with global search data on bitcoin vs gold.

“Buy Bitcoin” seems to have surpassed “Buy Gold” as indicated by Google trends.

From the article:

According to Google Trends, global searches for “buy bitcoin” have overtaken “buy gold” after previously exceeding searches for how to purchase silver. Last month, the amount of gold changing hands on BullionVault’s online trading platform dropped by almost a third from the 12-month average.

    I realize there have been some decent BTC, bitcoin, Block, Chain, Eth, Ether, Wallet, Crypto, Token, Coin sales.

    But I’m surprised we haven’t seen more high six figure or seven figure sales. Eth.com was nice sale for buyer and seller, but I’m perplexed we haven’t seen high eth or crypto sales like bitcoinwallet.com bitcoincash.org. I thought cryptobank.com at 150 K was a bargain.

    I read where Elliot Silver tried to acquire TOKEN.com, which is a super premium. I’m surprised domains like this haven’t been scooped up, or maybe people prefer to invest their monies and earnings into the currencies rather than premium or super currency domains.

    They are to F’ing cheap, I have been buying these names since 2011, I got 4 inquiries today, I had no idea bitcoin was touching $10k, but seems offers jump as the price does.

    Many of the people trying to buy bitcoin domains now, haven’t participated in the run up.

    There’s an interesting portfolio of 30 Bitcoin domains on Flippa right now. Should be interesting to see if it sells.
