With metals, I don't know where to start. I know I can buy a car with Bitcoin. And, around here, I can buy an ATV, half a cow, or a rifle with silver, because it's valued by like-minded people. But I doubt I could take that car to a shop for work and pay in silver. Or buy general groceries. So what's the play? Stash metals and exchange for cash? Hope for greater acceptance of metals? I'm just stuck. I can see the value but not the utility in them.
