Your explanation makes more sense than an individual purchasing paper gold. Doesn’t fill my heart with confidence for those depending on paper gold purchases to fund their retirement, though. Selling the same thing to 124 people seems wrong. I expect there’s lots of money to be made in doing it, until it’s time to pay the piper. Then hemp futures will skyrocket(if there are such things) along with the price of lamp posts.

Unless an individual is a short term trader I’d recommend taking physical possession of it. Particularly if it’s intended for retirement. Saves you from getting swindled.
