Moai culture is fascinating. People keep on doing it. It makes sense at the time and is lots of fun. Queensland seems a better bet than way up the mountains.

Bitcoin mining looks easier than gold mining but the energy cost to produce Bitcoins is significant and the controllers of the production process have upped the ante to ensure the mining remains too difficult to fill the money bin too quickly.

Neither gold nor Bitcoins are the right way to measure exchange of value. But both are near enough for government work for now, so enthusiasts abound and moai quarrying culture booms as central banker swindling with electorate rorting politicians aiding and abetting the depredations on opm continues apace.

Meanwhile the price of gold is back to the 31 Dec 2010 level which can't be too exciting for the gold bugs who hoped for salvation, some of them at the top of that bleak mountain at Kumtor.

The Bitcoin price has been zooming faster than gold recently.
