More Gen Z investors are turning to gold as a shield against economic volatility. A 25-year-old trader recently opened up about why they're adding precious metals to their portfolio—treating it as a reliable hedge alongside traditional and crypto holdings. The move reflects how younger generations are rethinking diversification beyond stocks and digital assets, seeking stability when market conditions get choppy.

Gold is really stable. Compared to the flashy things in the crypto world, it's more reliable.

Damn, I also want to stockpile gold, but I only have that much crypto. Let's go all in and wait for it to double.

Is gold really still okay? I thought only the older generation would buy this... But then again, with the volatility in the crypto world, adding some gold to stabilize might also make sense.

Gold is indeed attractive, but can it really withstand a big drop... It still depends on the holding ratio.

Gold is still too traditional; I still favor assets with practical applications... But on the other hand, young people starting to play with gold is indeed a signal.
