In five years from now who would have more gains? I think bitcoin will..5 years of holding to the moon and many dips.

Yes it is true, I think it is true that in the next 5 years bitcoin will provide many benefits for the holder, and in the next 5 years bitcoin prices will surely more than doubled.

 your right bitcoin proves that every year bitcoin increasing the price value so it will be happen if bitcoin take another 5years as you sai I think its double or triple because bitcoin have so many investors and supporter to grow every year.

I also always think that for the next 5 years bitcoin will always benefit for us who invest in it, and it is very profitable in future investment.

I will do and hold my bitcoin for 5 years and I think with 5 years time I will get huge profits and doubled up, because I believe that bitcoin is the currency of the future.

Since Bitcoin was able to bounce back from its big fall, I think it will have lot of gains over Berkshire. It's improving every year and I am sure the people behind Bitcoin are doing their best to expand and keep it more secure so more people will gain interest and invest.

Five years is short and comparing with Berskhire who has more than 40 years experience and gains, then who knows what would happened in the future. As long as there is no certainty about whether bitcoin will be accepted as digital payment or any major countries starting to implemented law for it then bitcoin still has a long way to go.  ::) ::)

i don't think after 5 years, people would still be hyped about bitcoin. so my bet for berkshire.

I think also that bitcoin will have more gains. I expect at least 5 fold returns on bitcoin in five years from now and i doubt berkshire can do that.

Just like how people predicted that Bitcoin would never make it past the $1000 level again after the MtGox debacle. I must however be happy with your statement because that shows how people still don't understand what Bitcoin is capable of, and that leaves me with a smile on my face. BRK.A in the last 5 years booked a gain of roughly 75%, which I honestly don't see much growth in from this point. At current stage it's very unlikely for their stock to repeat another 75% in the coming 5 years, and that while Bitcoin should be capable of yielding a minimum of 1000% within the same time frame. In other words, it might actually be a great moment to short Berkshire Hathaway. I'm not even joking. I am fairly sure that shorting that stock will result in more profits than going long.

Yes, I agree with this statement. Within next 5 years the price of bitcoin will be more high from today and bitcoin will provide more benifits for its holders. Berkshire won't be able to bit bitcoin because is more advanced that berkshire and it is the king of all digital currency.

I don't understand the reasons why most people keep on comparing bitcoin to another cryptocurrency.  Though,  it's not as if we won't have any other cryptocurrency that has an outstanding project better than bitcoin or that will have a higher price than bitcoin.  There might be in future, but bitcon will always been  the first, the best and most invested cryptocurrency.  This is because,  without the emerge of it, many coins won't be.

Bitcoin's price increased more than 1000% in the last year itself. So clearly the comparison is beyond pointless here. This sort of comparison is not only unhealthy but is useless. There is no use of proper data or data at all. @OP,get your facts and shit right.

yeah right. it is verry steer clear that bitcoin is the winner. op maybe noticed a major gains on brk.a but i believe that is only temporary (maybe a manipulation as what they called it ) but im not saying that bitcoin isnt manipulated , sure bitcoin is also manipulated by whales or group of powerful people but the pumped of bitcoin is still huge and more often to occur when compared to other types of assets and business out there.


Theres no guarantee if bitcoin will increase on the next five years because none of us can possibly predict the future. we dont need years to see the growth of bitcoin because bitcoin can always surge anytime of the day.

Average Berkshire returns have been around 20% p.a. according to a quick google search, since its inception.

If we assume that Berkshire is going to perform the same way as it has on average since its founding, then there would be around 140% returns within 5 years. And that is extremely optimistic, considering that some say that the stock market is due for a correction soon.

BTC can comfortably achieve another all time high within the next 5 years, especially 2020-2021 due to the halving. My money is on bitcoin, especially because Berkshire actively antagonises bitcoin which would put them in a very bad position looking forward.

bitcoin will continue to exist in the next decade, since until now there are still many people coming to cryptocurrency just to invest in bitcoin. and what makes bitcoin interesting is its limited supply, because it can make the price soar and will make bitcoin last long in my opinion.

Average return of Berkshire in five years or even yearly is not comparable to Bitcoins. For the past years, we have seen bitcoin growing for about 40 - 120% gain in a year despite the down and up of its price throughout the year.

why do you even compare the gains of these two? when it comes down to what they are, they have nothing in common. bitcoin is the one and only decentralized currency that you can even call a revolution and it is a global thing which everyone from anywhere in the whole world can buy it and use it and own it. but Berkshire is a stock with a billionaire behind it who controls everything there is about its future and its price!

Berkshire capitalization is $512 billion. Bitcoin's marketcap is 146 billion dollars. Bitcoin needs to cost 3.5 times as much to be worth about the same amount of money that Berkshire which would be true under the price of about 30k per btc. Yet we also have to take into account the average yearly income of Berkshire and btc's halving. The Berkshire annual growth is about 20%, so in 5 years they are expected to have $1 trillion dollars. This means bitcoin should double its price as well, which would have to be around $60k per coin. I wish I could include the halving analysis here, but it is rather hard and, I suppose, not that significant.
It is pretty realistic to expect btc being worth that much in 5 years, so it is capable of earning more than Berkshire.

Ofcourse, bitcoin will have more gains. Bitcoin already ranks 1st among all other cryptocurrency in the market. Each day Bitcoin is trying to get better and gain more success.

seems like a ridiculous question. Berkshire averages what like 20% a year. Bitcoin averages something like 170% a year. Do the math.

if you want to compare the two then lets do it properly.
bitcoin was created 9 years ago and in this 9 years it has grown to current $8000+ price level.
Berkshire stocks dates back to 1839 (179 years ago) the real growth was in the 60s which is still 50+ years ago and it this time price of it has gone up to $300k+

in simple comparison bitcoin is in the starting steps of growing up! it is the infant in comparison. not to mention that bitcoin is something that people are buying globally and using it everywhere whereas BH is only a company with limited shares and is already big and has not much room to grow

Just think of it as moving something that's really heavy vs something that's light.

Bitcoins marketcap is tiny, and given its fundamentals, the growth potential is massive. The features of Bitcoin are only going to be increasingly more desirable, specially with a looming financial crisis worse than 2008's in the horizon.

On the other hand Berkshire is a mammoth difficult to move, small gains in the future, and at risk of losing value due systemic risk of the aforementioned crisis.

It's a nobrainer, put your money on Bitcoin, not on Buffet.

Bitcoin vs Berkshire between this company have different issues first of all because both are different areas but if we see the future of course bitcoin have bright future because ther bitcoin share holders are invested money which will double after few years later and day by day the price will crease so I can tell that bitcoin is the best for investing money and this will bring more profit so bitcoin will gain.

some people talk about 20000$, but in 5 years bitcoin has potential to break all the barriers and cat achieve that height which no one ever imagined. i am very much hopeful with it.  :o :o

Bitcoins will have more gains in five years than Berkshire but is bitcoin safer haven than berkshire? Berkshire seems a stable asset to invest in than bitcoins which is surrounded with too much uncertainty.

I think from what we are seeing berkshire indeed is a good investment, there is nondoubt that warren buffet had established himself to be a great investor/ businessman and a capitalist, however there is still a lot of room for improvment, they need aslo to cater those who uses crypto currency, if they will not, a great empire would fall down, we already seen this with nokia, because they didn't give what the public wants, now iphones and samsung is running the game they once dominated. Within the past years bitcoin had grown more than berkshire, thus a lot of prominent figures in the investment world are bad mouthing bitcoin, simply because they too will loose a lot of money and will loose control, since bitcoin is decentralized.

If anything, Berkshite Hattaway is a good pointer of how the Bitcoin graph will look long term.

Big correction cicles but overall uptrend. And in january 2018, it hit the $300k mark, so that's a $100k increase in 4 years. Imagine growth the potential for BTC for the next 4.


People not buying as much Bitcoin as possible right now are going to kill themselves in 10 years.

To me it'll definitely be bitcoin.

I expect a recovery of BTC prices on a huge scale within a year, and the bull market should come by at around 2020 since that's when the halving occurs, and the most hype is built up for BTC trading. It's not necessarily go as high as the last bull market, but certainly you can expect at least 200-300% gains from BTC recovering from the current value to its previous ATH alone, and that's not taking into account that the last ATH is most likely going to be eclipsed during the next bull market.

Berkshire could continue its 10-20% gains per year, which is great. But BTC is still in its early adoption phase, and as such, will produce much better returns. Buffett will regret not getting into BTC early.
