Even if the internet is shut down, holding your BTC in cold storage (Ledger wallet) won't affect anything. It will obviously remove the ability to trade it though, but at least you will still have access to what is rightfully yours.
Versus the government just freezing your bank accounts and you have no recourse left.
As for gold / silver, you won't actually 'hold' it will you? That is why it is inferior in my view.
