Just what are we supposed to do if it does go boom and the dollar flatlines? Bitcoins can be controlled by the lack of electricity to power your PC. Gold is worthless if you can’t get a good price for it. A $1000 coin isn’t what I consider spendable when I need $100 worth of gas and don’t want US dollars in change.

In that case 3-4 ounces of silver would be perfect as a medium of exchange. Or you could use 1/10 oz gold coins which are worth about 120.00 or so right now.
