“Goldenfreude” (gold + schadenfreude) is the delight that non-gold holders have in seeing the price of gold drop and the goldbugs lose large sums of money. Gold dropped in price in the first half of 2013 Barry Ritholz of The Big Picture blog wrote on April 15, 2013:
 
“I do not want to engage in Goldenfreude — the delight in gold bugs’ collective pain — but I am compelled to point out how basic flaws in their belief system has led them to this place where they are today. “
 
A Business Insider article later on the same day titled “GOLDENFREUDE: Here’s Why People Are So Glad That Gold Is Crashing” helped to popularize the new term.
