Bitcoin or gold?

[Daimon88]

I prefer gold, because it's existence is longer than bitcoin, it's recognized worldwide and the price is stable. While bitcoin is just a virtual currency that costs erratically.

This is what might be best suitable to you but I think that holding of both will make your work more difficult to manage. I would opt for any one of these and that Bitcoin of course instead of Gold. Bitcoin has much more market value as compared to gold and it will help you earn much more money as well.

[Ngewex Yuk]

Of course bitcoin, it's been proven and no doubt that bitcoin investment is the most profitable, we never find gold can go up to tens of percent in a day but that is normal in bitcoin.

[Supebox]

Definitely bitcoin. Because with bitcoin you can make a lot of profit because the value can go up and down within just a couple of days, wich it did. it went from 5k to 3k in just like a week.

I choose bitcoin after 5 years bitcoin has a good performance, it becomes higher and higher and become in demand in the world many people now knows what is bitcoin all about and many people wants to invest in bitcoin because of high profit and gold just increase a small amount and we know the gold is proven many years but the increase is so small unlike bitcoin proven the higher increase in just 5 years.

[Stokes Bay]

the number of people on here who have only bought bitcoin for speculation - not even as an investment portfolio hedge - shows me that BTC will collapse.
whilst blockchain technology has value, anything built on it without an underlying asset has no value

If you had to convert all your wealth to either Bitcoin or gold and keep it there for 10 years, which would you choose? Keep in mind the fact that Bitcoin has only been around for 5 years, and could be fundamentally different in any number of ways in 10 years.

For long time investment, I'll go with Gold. It is already proven that Gold is a good investment because it's been used through decades by different countries. And Bitcoin is still young, there's no assurance that it will be still on top of other cryptos for that period of time. Also, Gold has a physical value which is an advantage for an investment.

Though bitcoin is young but it has clearly beaten gold in price race. Bitcoins have more potential of producing large profits than gold ever did in the history. I don’t think so gold is by any means better than bitcoins for long term investments. Bitcoins are not going to let gold win this race at all.

It cuts both ways evidently

And it is a double-edged word at that, with which you should be particularly careful. Just like Bitcoin has the potential of producing hefty profits, it can just as easily produce insane losses. Which is what we have seen the last week, and now people are complaining that Bitcoin caused them severe pain by taking away their money. So it in fact remains to be seen who is to win gold in this race (pardon the pun)

That is not true, most of the people in cryptocurrency world buy bitcoin because they want to add it on an investment portfolio that they have because they want to have it for long term and they already saw the things that is best with bitcoin and that is why they are buying and adding it on their portfolio for long term investments.

[JackMorris]

I think either way both will forever have value.   How much on BTC in 10 years, i don't know I hope a lot. But gold if you are more short term you could go almost to any country and spend it.  Even remote no internet can chances are find someone to buy gold. BTC you need to be in a country that has technology with internet, etc.  So I see it really depending on your plan on where you will be going or retiring.

[Allan Ramanda]

depending on the way one thinks, if the person is not experienced with bitcoin for what choose bitcoin, for me choose both, with bitcoin we can develop it and if with gold is something that will never lost or replaced by others

[bry0908]

well.. now  a days... bitcoin is more affordable and easy to get.. unlike gold which is you need more money to obtain it. and in terms of usable in evryday life... its more comfortable to use bitcoin in everyday life.we can pay using bitcoins in store while gold...?? I dont think so...::)thanks

[Asuka]

They have value both, bitcoin is do not have a permanent price anytime the price can be down or rise, unlike gold ,I'm not really sure but as far as I know the value of gold is rise depends on how pure is gold.

first i tell gold is not invest for our cause we know good invest method. if you see last 5 year market price. you saw btc price high increase but gold not high increase. so i tell btc is best.

[danim1130]

For me both of the two choices is the best, because bitcoin is decentralized and until now the price of it still increases, and also not traceable so that all of the money here have no taxes,,. in GOLD the government can manipulate the price but still it is still valuable.

[changcloy]

Both bitcoin and gold as long as I can invest and I can grow my money.

[Sir Paijoe]

Although bitcoin is very profitable and proven to beat bitcoin, but I will make gold as second choice after bitcoin, my simple reason is gold stable and never drop the price to tens of percent in a year.

[Bondho Kompeni]

Of course I will choose both, and for the percentage distribution then I set 75% for gold and the rest bitcoin, the thing that makes me still optimistic in gold than bitcoin is the gold price is very stable, and when I need money suddenly then I can immediately money without need an exchanger and the price too drop.

[Tukang Becak]

The current bitcoin price is very rising, and in the last few months I've made bitcoin the top choice compared to other investments including gold. this is because bitcoin is very profitable.

[Fireblade]

i think in modern era people and investors are giving more value to bitcoin, and the reason behind is that bitcoin is more profitable because of the fluctuation in the price of bitcoin. in fact gold is good but for saving and not for making money, because for last few decades the price of gold is too much stable and we can observe a very minor change in the price of gold. therefore most of the people only invest in gold so as to save their money in a safe place for long term and even its value do not decrease.

The market capitalization tells a different story. But it seems like Bitcoin is indeed eating up the traditional markets.

[Webetcoins]

I would surely go for bitcoin as it is more profitable than gold. The volatility of the bitcoin prove its potential to yield more output and that's the major reason which makes it better than gold. Gold is stable but bitcoin will give returns though after splitting!!!

Bitcoin without taking even a minute to think because now bitcoin is the main source of income and it is providing a lot of opportunities to the users to earn from bitcoin and to invest their money in bitcoin. Gold cannot give you profit as a bitcoin can do even in short time. The price of the bitcoin is not fix it is unpredictable but gold have the fix price it cannot increase more than gold no never.

But look at the community of them, Gold has a huge community and Bitcoin just is new member on the marketplace.
Of course, "new member" always better than "old member" because the price of Bitcoin control easy than asset has strong support like Gold.

Bitcoin is the best so I will go with the bitcoin because bitcoin is not so famous right now I mean! it is gaining fame it will be more famous in the future so the price of the bitcoin will increase more and more. So the supply of the bitcoin will be high and the demand of the bitcoin will increase more and more so I will choose bitcoin for sure, it will make my future secure and safe.
