We're 2.5 years into this gold rush, and I still haven't seen any gold. I've seen people selling picks & shovels. I've seen "gold experts" selling maps to the gold. I've seen CEOs announce they're going "gold-first". I've seen people selling land where they claim there's gold. But no actual gold.

Somehow, it always seems to be over the *next* hill.

I'm beginning to wonder if what they're actually selling is hills.

@jasongorman They dug some shiny ore out and are refining it. It's not gold and there's no gold in it, but it will soon become gold!
It's basically the same, anyway, if you squint your eyes and don't try to use it for anything meaningful.
They just have to dig deeper and refine more for that to happen.
Why would you try to stop them? Don't you want gold!?

@ciourte @jasongorman It's actually shit, but maybe if they polish it enough it'll become a nice, shiny shit.
