  It’s not shit, it’s top 3 behind silver and copper. But those oxidize and gold doesn’t. So a gold coated silver core is what you want.

    I stand corrected. Idk why I thought it was a better conductor

    Gold coating for connectors is nice. For everything else it doesn’t really matter, you get an oxide layer that prevents further oxidation.

  It has ~70% the conductivity of pure copper, it’s not “shit”
