“As the dollar continues to shed its value, and to lose credibility as the world’s reserve currency, countless people — including governments, investors, and common citizens — are looking to alternatives. These include gold and silver, which are time-honored as stores of value — but there are other candidates as well. What are some of the alternatives to the fiat dollar? Is the dollar doomed?
