There is a difference. The latter are folks who are convinced that gold is the One True Currency, and they repeat lines like: "no fiat currency has ever survived, so the US dollar is doomed."

This is absurd for all kinds of reasons, notably for the fact that no single government entity has ever survived very long, nor has any gold-backed currency.
