Thank you for your clarification, very informative

Adolf Hitler was a modern-day edgelord and an incel. He didn’t have any original thoughts, he stole the ideas from the magazines he read while he was poor and unemployed

I understand but inflation is actually good for the debt of governments since there’s a surplus of money (they pay on the nominal value) so it’s unlikely they’d have to scrap personal gold in order to function.

Anyway that’s just my two cents and I may be totally wrong. I’m not an economist

ETFs may be useless in case of a calamity (in that case I’d stash bullets and canned food, not gold) but they’re useful for hyperinflation scenarios because the financial system keeps working. See Turkey and Argentina

You can have liquid, premium-free gold by buying an ETF/ETC. Whether you hold it or not is irrelevant in case of hyperinflation. Stashing it away may be useful only if you like to touch it I guess
