Where my fellow copperchads at?

It's a store of value. I'm in this for the long haul

Please only encourage Redditors to buy Copper. Silver is cheap enough for most of us /pol Chads.

>he bought copper
what a fucking idiot

As someone living over roughly 1/6 of the world's reserves, it'll be worth jack shit in this situation.

>Hey bro, how much for this banana?
>Well, what's the smallest gold bar you've got?

No no, you're right, when we're all trading metals everyone should only have gold.

Just make your cock ring out of standards stuff... plutonium doesnt keep it up any better

Copper Natrix, good idea?

Can't obtain physical gold atm

It's proven to eradicate Covid-19 virus when applied correctly.

w-where can I get some user?

I think it's probably a reasonable idea to have a bucket of spare copper piping or whatever in your shed. If junkies rip copper wires out of buildings then it has to be worth something. But I wouldn't invest in it. It's an industrial metal. You need literally tons of it to matter. And if you're not into commodities then the traders will most likely eat you for lunch in between trades.

not a metal hoarder but
copper is useful independent of disaster and doesn't really rely on industry or economics to hold its value
>wiring
>bullet jacketing
>lead-free bullets
>piping
>bacteriostatic
>RF shielding
Gold holds way too much value to actually be useful as a currency and silver isn't really useful by itself unless you're using it to trade
an ounce of copper would probably be good to buy the equivalent of a pack of cigarettes or a couple beers if SHTF
basically if you have a homemade crucible and useful raw metals, you're king shit of fuck mountain

I don’t know about you all... but because of Corona this is the first time since college that I’ve felt alive. I have lots of bottle caps and been waiting for something like this to happen for 5 years. The point where things get so bad that 1 bottle cap will buy me a blowjob from a formerly well to do housewife and her 18 year old daughter at the same time. I’ve been waiting in the shadows laughing at these cuck husbands who buy their wives range rovers instead of buying bottle caps... knowing that I’ll be face fucking their wives mouths for the nickel it cost me to buy that bottle cap

Just yesterday at Whole Foods I seamlessly entered into conversation about Corona with a roastie milf that had a ring on her finger in the water aisle... and I said this is all a cover for trump to bring us on a bottle cap standard. She started looking at me in amazement like she wanted me to paint her lips in cum. At the end of the conversation I’m like take my number l have plenty of protection and freeze dried food if you ever need it and she took it from me.

So what is in there? Springwater minerals?

the funny thing is, that's probably a pretty useful amount of aluminum
melt that shit down

copper seems like a real good idea many
good uses for copper too

All your copper are belong to us

Sure, but who are you going to sell scrap copper or ingots to unless you have a whole chain of refiners and metalworkers and machinists and whatever else? At the end of the day, the value of copper still comes primarily from its industrial use. It's not valuable for a trading token in the same way that gold or silver are.

Copper is a legit commodity, but that's the difference between an industrial metal and a monetary metal.

Just take chipper out of coin circulation you idiot, it's cheaper than market value.

does it rust in any way?

you fat fuck can't even catch a turtle. see you soon in cannibal's world, copperhead fagget

Fuck off commie you can take my copper from my cold dead hands

When you've been Jewed so badly that in times of crisis all you can think about is precious metals kek..

oxygen

I keep mine in the form of stripped wire. Just as pure and more easily fungible

just use a crucible to melt copper into ingots or rough rounds
if the economy collapses, people will only give a shit about what's useful anyway, and it's almost guaranteed people will want copper
a machinist could pretty easily use cast copper and turn some brass to give you passable quality lead free ammo
trying to find good-quality pure copper in a collapse would be a pain in the fucking as
it forms verdigris from copper oxide after moisture exposure but you can remove it with white vinegar

>a machinist could pretty easily use cast copper and turn some brass to give you passable quality lead free ammo
Fuckin ah. Lead free

That's a lot like saying if you live in a small town maybe enough people would hold and recognize silver to use it as an actual currency rather than just another barter item via some kind of pawn shop or whatever. It's up to you, but I don't think most people have the facilities to stack up a substantial dollar value of copper, nor the market to liquidate it as needed.

Based.

>but I don't think most people have the facilities to stack up a substantial dollar value of copper
yeah, definitely - gold is an excellent store of value, and silver is a good in-between for bartering, but I'm just saying don't ignore copper
having a good stack of ingots or rounds would be a good idea, both for small item trades and manufacturing shit
Just to see if I could, my friend let me use his machine shop and lathe to make some improvised ammo
basically, I turned some .45-70 brass and casted some copper
The primer anvil looked like absolute shit, but it was close enough, used the white shit on strike anywhere match heads inside the primer cup
I didn't use any black powder load data so I had to pound the bullet out of my Marlin, but it fuckin fired

I'm not going to say it's a bad idea, but it's a matter of knowing your surroundings. I know I have enough cash4gold places or pawn shops that if I'm not worried about gunning down niggers I can liquidate gold or silver if need be. I might be able to trade copper bits and pieces with some of the local tradespeople, but I wouldn't really count on it being useful if things get that bad.

But if you're in a different situation like that, that could be a good play. It's all about knowing your local market.

Where's my Aluminumbros at?
We've got Nate Aluminum (Formerly Silver) with us.

I guess you could beat it into a frying pan or something, but then why didn't you just buy a frying pan?

imagine not having cast iron

>fine copper
W-what? You might as well buy a .999 iron bar.

Your investment will decay very quickly. Where the fuck are my fellow osmium chads?

Copper has value in the modern world for its conductivity, without the massive use of electronic equipment, copper loses much of its importance. Every building, every house is a copper mine, it will take years before all this material is used on a large scale again.

Silver has better properties.

>buy a kilo bar of copper
>$3

Lel?

>osmium

Osmium itself also plays a part in some catalysts, and is used for staining specimens in microscopy. None of these is what you might call a bulk application - which may account for why it's estimated that the current annual amount of osmium now produced right around the world weighs less than a large tiger.

Which one of you did this?

>silver isn't really useful by itself unless you're using it to trade
not true actually, silver is useful for keeping microbes out of fresh water. Its why old water barrels and jugs are silver.

In good times—when industry is humming—the value of copper is high, as it is in demand.

In bad times—when there is a downturn—the value of copper is low, as it is not needed.

>have to get copper in little bars
meanwhile, we're getting fine aluminum in such huge panels we can cover our houses with it. i invite copper investors over to parties and they pull out their small copper bars and all the women laugh at them while i have to pry them off me with my huge aluminum stockpile

I only buy fractional copper so it's easier to commerce with when it goes to da moon.

Saw blades and drills, for example, can be extremely valuable and tradeable in a post-apocalyptic world.

These products will no longer be made or there will be enormous difficulty in making them in a world with low energy availability.
