Amid the surge in precious metals hype, scammers are becoming more active, disguising various types of scrap and low-quality materials as gold bars. Analysts point to growing difficulties in verifying the authenticity of physical bullion, especially in secondary markets.

By contrast, Bitcoin does not face such verification issues, as ownership and authenticity are transparently confirmed on-chain.

Meanwhile, gold is pushing toward $5,000, while silver is attacking the $100 level.
