Bitcoin Forum

I researched between Bitcoin and real gold.

Bitcoin
Bitcoin is a digital asset, this digital asset is the same as gold but is only available in the digital world.
Bitcoin As a currency that has an exchange rate against other currencies, the movement of the price of Bitcoin also shows fluctuations. Even this is not often used by users to make Bitcoin a trading asset. But concerns, the price of Bitcoin turned out to be moving in very sharp volatility. In fact, the phenomenon of price changes.


Real gold
Gold is a soft and easily forged metal, its hardness ranges from 2.5 - 3 (Mohs scale), and its specific gravity depends on the type and content of other metals that join it.
Gold is used as a financial standard in many countries and is also used as jewelry.
The use of gold in the monetary and financial fields is based on the absolute monetary value of gold itself against various currencies throughout the world, although officially on the world commodity exchange, the price of gold is listed in US dollars. The form of the use of gold in the monetary sector is usually in the form of gold bars or gold in various units weighing grams to kilograms.
Gold can also experience price declines along with the reduced debt crisis that has engulfed a number of European countries such as Greece and Italy.

From the language I said above, it turns out that not only does Bitcoin rise and fall, but real gold in the real world also rises and falls.
If I say my language above, I hope that panic will decrease.
Have positive thoughts not to say that this is the end of bitcoin.
I did this research by comparing Bitcoin with real Gold, or does anyone have another opinion?

I have seen Bitcoin and gold graphics, they really look like something, and as an asset they are both worthy.

Yes you are right, I also think that bitcoin and gold are also feasible, do you think there is a connection between the two?

Why peole always comparing bitcoin and gold? Bitcoin isn't a gold but they have similarities that their price very expensive. That is why all of us wanted to have bitcoin in our hand.

so far, bitcoin with gold has certainly high assets. because gold and bitcoin have tremendous advantages. so we can use bitcoin and gold as assets that we will plant.

Nice and great comparison and explanation between the different of gold and bitcoin, bith are useful saving in the future because both are worthy for long term hold their price will become hugable.

Now that companies are actually accepting BTC to buy gold with, I think gold is a better hedge than some stablecoins.
Sure, the reverse process will be difficult but you can rely on gold to store value.

People need to understand that Bitcoin is a digital currency and its should never be compared with gold. Bitcoin should be compared with the banking and financial system. Bitcoin operates like physical fiat and its used in the transaction of goods and services and also bridges the gap that exist in the financial world.

People who come into contact with Bitcoin for the first time like to compare it to gold, but I agree with you. Bitcoin is a payment instrument, and the two main differences between normal money are that it is digital and decentralized. We should concentrate on this because comparing it to gold often misleads people.

Some investors think that investing in gold now replaced with bitcoin as before they investing in gold now they investing and referring to invest in bitcoin because it's more profitable and become big asset.

but gold has a more stable price than bitcoin, because gold can be accepted by all countries as asset savings, so price changes will never be as fast as a bitcoin that can drop 50% in just one week
if that happens to gold, chances are that the stability of the world economy will be disrupted, and of course, many people begin to doubt the existence of gold

You said it yourself. They're frequently being compared due to them having a lot of shared characteristics; namely:

• Scarcity
• Fungibility
• Durability
• Divisibility

and many more, and bitcoin comes out on top. Gold is only advantageous when talking about gold being used in jewelry and such, and the typical argument "what if there's no internet or we had an EMP hurr durr".

And no, they're not being compared because of both being "expensive"; because you can buy fractions of both gold and bitcoin anyway.

Goodluck paying your groceries with your gold. Gold is a lot more stable due to liquidity, and that's it. Bitcoin is only 10 years old, liquidity will come in time.

Bitcoin and gold are different but have high value, especially bitcoin which has more value than gold, we know bitcoin is very valuable and has its own advantages. So we can save bitcoin for the long term and are very confident that it will have many benefits in the future.

Bitcoin does not have more value than gold. Gold is in use for thousands of years as a currency, jewerly and store of value. Nowdays it is also used for electronic components, etc. Gold will be used as long as we exist. Bitcoin and blockchain is very interesting technology and it will have impact on the world but at some point it will be replaced with even better technology. It might happen either in 50 or 5000 years from now you never know.

About why do people compare it? I would say bacause it shares some of the properties as limited quantity and store of value.

digital world now is an indispensable part of human activity and economy. Thus, it should have a digital asset and that is bitcoin

Digital assets that have advantages and this are very useful, many people have jumped and mined bitcoin, so this has a price. And gold is actually mined with certain tools to get pure and real gold. In bitcoin it does have a limited supply and mining with expensive tools requires capital and seriousness in mining.

what made you think bitcoin and gold needed to be compared with each other in first place because to be honest in all these years i have never felt any case where i would think they have anything in common to be compared.
on one hand we have a digital currency that is decentralized and can be used globally and on the other hand we have a physical element that has a lot of usages none of which as a currency and it can only be used locally.

Bitcoin and gold have the same valuable value, so someone can get a big profit if some use these two gold currencies. I think of course it is not wrong if we consume both because the same can make us rich in the future. I personally like more Bitcoin while gold can also generate profits, so both are also very good.

actually both of them are the same, both are worthy to be used as very valuable assets, because bitcoin and gold have quite satisfactory values

They are comparing it, because the whole concept of scarcity of rare metals like Gold, was the building blocks on which the concept of Bitcoin was built. Bitcoin is a resource that are artificially simulating a process, where less bitcoins are mined over time. <This is called the Halving> and this increase the scarcity of the resource.

The fact that bitcoins are mined are also based on Gold and precious metals that are mined.  ;) There will always be a close link between Gold and Bitcoin.  :D

In my mind Gold and Bitcoin, far the equation of either price or something else,
Gold, real can be held in the form of precious metals, and can be sold anywhere.
bitcoin, digital assets can not be held and sold in the market on certain cryptographic devices not all real markets that can be traded, the price is quite elastic when compared to gold.

Bitcoin and gold are two different assets and have more value, I feel that these two assets are very valuable even though they have different uses. Not everyone has bitcoin, but almost everyone has gold, only this ownership can be distinguished and prices are never stable. Bitcoin and gold continue to have a good future, so it really deserves to be a long-term investment.

We cannot compare bitcoin with gold. Gold have physical value which bitcoin doesnt have.
But bitcoin have value because it has been used by peoples since 2009.
When more peoples using it, demands will come. If more demands come, the value will increase.

Totally agree with your point of view ;) ;)

But there are too many altcoins, these maybe will damage the value of bitcoin.  :( :(

Not necessarily "damage" the value, it's just that less money will go to bitcoin as some will go to altcoins instead from those extreme shitcoin gamblers. Long term though? I think more money will be allocated to bitcoin due to most of the crappy altcoins dying. Not 100% certain though, as more and more altcoins will be created as time goes.

Yes, these shitcoin are fraudulent, most of shitcoin will dead, maybe we can help people distinguish their differences and accelerate the death of shitcoin. Do you have any suggestion? ;)

There are 2068 cryptocurrencies (according to CMC (https://coinmarketcap.com/)) now including Bitcoin. God knows how many there will be tomorrow.

Using the ETH platform and others, people are creating tokens/currencies almost for everything but how many of them contains real demand? The ICO just ended will lose the hype after few hours. The buyers will regret for the coins they lost but next time they will be very careful not to lose their precise coins.

I do not see the damage of the value here. I see the value is gaining day after day.

So many people create altcoins with a variety of platforms and this is a new altcoin challenge to develop and many will choose altcoins instead of gold even though gold has high value. Assets owned will continue to be developed according to the intelligence of each individual.

Bitcoin and real gold, both of them have a great value in our world.
But the real gold value is very stable far from bitcoin value. Some peoples say bitcoin is not an asset like gold, bitcoin is just a currency.
But actually, if you keep holding your bitcoin and not using it as a currency, then it will become an asset, no different from gold.

in the price of bitcoin and gold does not have a very striking difference, the same in price fluctuations, and even in my opinion the ups and downs of bitcoin prices tend to be better, because the decline in prices in bitcoin does not reduce investors' interest.

considering that majority of altcoin investors are actually investing their "bitcoin" into those altcoins and they aim to make profit on their "bitcoin" i wouldn't say the "money" is going in those shitcoins so there isn't any effects on bitcoin itself.
the only possible bad scenario is when they buy bitcoin to invest in shitcoins and then dump shitcoins for bitcoin and dump bitcoin too out of panic and put some sell pressure on bitcoin market.

if in my opinion. I like investing in bitcoin more than investing in gold. because I can find profits every day. although only a little. the important thing is that we must have money and experience to take advantage of market conditions

Bitcoin and gold do have value and this is a good asset for the future. Gold is physically visible and has fluctuations that are not too far away and have been around for thousands of years. Bitcoin is a new asset that was 10 years ago, has a surprising fluctuating value, and not everyone can have it.

This might be ideal integrating bitcoin with real gold however this would complicate the system of cryptocurrency. As we all know that gold has more stable value compared to bitcoin though we know that gold is getting expensive as time passes by but still it could not compare to cryptocurrency where bitcoin market price will going to fall down.

if I notice in 2018 investment in bitcoin is not profitable bro. only I got a lot of experience. maybe gold is better than bitcoin in 2018. but if in 2019 the state of bitcoin is still as bad as it is now .means gold is better than bitcoin. but who knows the future of bitcoin in 2019

Gold is always better all the time even we say that bitcoin is making the headlines hot . that is because gold is verry versatile and can be used on anything or anywhere and any people do always recognized gold  .

 while bitcoin or cryptos on the other hand is purely subjective    . 

But investing on both assets are still advisable  because each of them can give us an edge to earn a succesive profit even on hard times .

Gold and bitcoin have tremendous advantages. Both of us can make assets to make a profit. Both are superior in every aspect, For long term investments, in my opinion, it is better for gold, if for short term investment, it is better for bitcoin, as trading is more profitable for bitcoin, the increase is fast.

I agree. Both are worthy investment but not the same in stand.
Bitcoin is known as decentralized and volatile.
Gold known as stable and centralized.
Both are good and both was used to scam people.

Yes i too agree on both Bitcoin and Gold are profitable. Bitcoin is minned based on the concept of Gold and hence investing on both bitcoin and gold will make the investors in good profit if the demand and price increases. Hence both are good for trading and help investors in making the profit from it.

There are always people who like to compare bitcoin with gold. In fact, they are two completely different things. The value of gold comes from its scarcity. It is a rare metal on earth.
People always think that "a small amount is good"，but we can imagine that if one day we can go to other planets to mine gold, and some planet is full of gold, then the value of gold will be greatly reduced.
Bitcoin is a perfect currency structure, and its total amount is limited. Even in the entire universe, it is only 21 million pieces.

Yes, bitcoin is certainly better than gold. Its total amount is limited, but I don’t think all "limited" things must be good. In fact, bitcoin is really worthy because of its mining system and trading system. This is a very close relationship. Human history has never been so systematically designed like this trading model. This is its novelty.
For gold, we can't assume that it will be mined at alien planets. Based on the current technology of mankind, even we can't even mine 80% of the gold on the planet, so it is still valuable.

Bitcoin is a digital asset, which can be accessible any where in the world, without any stress or Physical load to carried out when buying or selling process, hence bitcoin still the best, secondly the current price of bitcoin falling is not permanent, which is the best time to invest.

bitcoin and real gold are almost the same and I think it matches the investment that has existed so far and the selling price is slightly different I think this rival duel will wrestle until the future

I think the two things are very different, gold has a price that continues to increase from time to time, price fluctuations are very thin in it so that in the past, gold has become a thing that is still feasible to use up to now, different from Bitcoin which of course we need internet network to access it

Although gold can get down and up again, people still would like to invest in gold than in bitcoin because they know gold for a long time ago and gold is the best investment for them. They still prefer to invest in gold because they think that from time to time, the gold price will not decrease and will only increase. But some of them are trying to invest in bitcoin, and we see that they are a new investor in bitcoin. But still, bitcoin and gold are not the same, and the purpose of bitcoin and gold is different too.

Nothing is perfect, each of all certainly has its own advantages and disadvantages, here it is clear that people really need can be able to take advantages of all its strengths/advantages and can be able to knowing more their development from time to time.

I chose Bitcoin because I live a modern life and I think gold has lost the era with bitcoin today and it would be nice if we could stabilize bitcoin from gold because gold was outdated that the way we used to live in modern era do not be outdated and do not lose to the country developed countries

I choose bitcoin because the selling price is expensive, not cheap if gold is a little cheap and unstable investment time and I think bitcoin is more favored than gold because it lost the era of the modern era in my opinion so

I never agree with everyone who says that bitcoin and gold are the same, because we can see that the bitcoin is the digital asset and all people that use bitcoin us just people that know and curious about technologies, and gold have the real physic and it can used for jewelry. every people can have real gold, not like the bitcoin

Of course the value of the gold movement is more stable and not volatile like bitcoin. Bitcoin has a greater risk but bicoin can also provide better benefits than gold.

maybe with an explanation that you made you wished that could ease the market in a panic a little, I appreciate that, if I did not conclude your explanation, price fluctuations were a natural occurrence in investment (and I think that price fluctuations attracted people's interest in investment in bitcoin), and you want to say that the drop in prices doesn't mean that bitcoin will end and I agree with that.
Actually what I believe is that this panic only happens to beginner investors, investors who join from early 2018, who invest in bitcoin because they see the phenomenon at the end of 2017, they don't really understand this investment and what they have in their brain is a dream to get rich in one night. so the point is you don't have to worry because actually with the drop in the price of bitcoin, we can see which are the real investors and who are dreamers

Bitcoin has much a higher upside at this point.  Can you see gold doing a 4x from the current price? Probably not.  A 4x for bitcoin would still leave it under the all time high with a marketcap much lower than gold.  I'm not saying to go all in on bitcoin but the potential gains are much better for crypto.

I guess it is a process, gold can be recognized by everyone and even many people be very fond o, it because their government accepts and recognizes gold as a valuable item. Same with Bitcoin, when many people want to use bitcoin and especially the government recognizes that bitcoin has value then sooner or later everyone will be fond of bitcoin. The problem with the relationship of bitcoin is inseparable from technology, so it is an easy matter, everyone already has a smartphone and internet, with these two tools you can turn things around, I mean every thing you do not know then both devices can be a bridge to know what do you want to know.

I say gold is real physical but not the same as bitcoin, but I would assume bitcoin is digital gold in my opinion even though other people's opinions are different from mine, I don't force it so I think bitcoin and gold have something in common

Bitcoin and gold do have similarities, the investment value fluctuates according to market demand, but if we look at other investments such as a plot of land, maybe this land investment will increase in price every year.

many people say Bitcoin has an investment value better than gold or dollars, the reason is cryptocurrency circulating with a very limited amount and has a maximum supply while gold can still be mined continuously and money will continue to be printed

I don't think so, bitcoin is very different from gold. Everyone can get to know gold easily because they see directly their physical form, while bitcoin, you do not explain simply about the characteristics of bitcoin. Everyone needs time to get to know bitcoin at least they believe that bitcoin has value. So, everyone will choose gold as a valuable item, for ordinary people, bitcoin is just an technological illusion.

Change is the only thing that won't change in this world,so nothing in this world will be able to hold its position constantly even if it bitcoin in crypto currencies and gold in metal,so we don't need to compare one with other,it will be at top when its time comes.

Gold and bitcoin are two investment choices, those who prefer speculation can choose bitcoin because they can get better profits, and those who want low risk can choose gold.

Bitcoin and gold have good similarities and both are obtained by mining but unlike gold, bitcoin does not have physical existence as bitcoins are cryptocurrencies which are transacted by sending through nodes. Both Bitcoin and gold are good investment assets and the value of bitcoins will keep on increasing due to high demand for bitcoins in the cryptocurrency market.

I  was calling BTC “digital gold” a long time ago.
It really looks like each other. Both are inconvenient as a payment instrument. But they are an excellent investment tool.
Gold is also becoming more difficult to mine, as is BTC.
But cryptocurrencies have one advantage. Everyone can afford to invest in this.

The point here is both are having the same benefits which is really worth for investments. Bitcoin and Gold is actually similar, but at the same time they don't have the same value in the market.

Bitcoin only exist in digital form and as a currency that has great value on the world exchange market is a little bit different from the gold itself despite the fact that their both almost have the same investment value while gold have physical value bitcoin does not and where bitcoin is use as a mode of payment in goods and services gold is not used as a currency.

gold and Bitcoin had huge differences because gold had a trust in our society but Bitcoin had some other untrusted situation are happening now so good will not be refused by people in this world but Bitcoin is not like that and also Golden bit kind had similar qualities to so we can accept both these things as our investment easily.

I think that bitcoin is much more practical than gold and is more valuable than any precious metal.

if in my opinion. bitcoin is very good for long-term or short-term investments. if we have capital and investment experience. investment in bitcoin is better than investing in real gold .

Bitcoin is more convenient and useful because it can be used for payment easily. Gold is for people who need to invest safety.

yes, we can use bitcoin until now for payment transactions, while gold cannot be used. indeed the price of gold is higher than bitcoin. but the use of bitcoin is more.

it's true that bitcoin and gold are good investments in the long run to get promising profits, so many investors invest in these two places

Nowadays, many people like to compare Bitcoin with gold and call it digital gold. Both options have their advantages and disadvantages that each person can accept or not.

Gold is a more familiar investment tool. Gold has been used for thousands of years. In addition, gold has value as a jewel. And bitcoin is a digital invisible asset. Therefore, people trust gold more than bitcoin.

In terms of value they are both valuable. But in terms of stable value, i think gold will be the one much stable than bitcoin.

Only with the chock is still cooler. Gold, how not cool you need. Trite for technical purposes. And the number of his violas is limited by the periodic table.
Number of bugs altos - the political map of the world.

And the cue ball? Every second Moudin considers it an honor to decorate the coinmarket with his vyser. Prices jump, without paying any attention to the objective reality. For 99% of users of a crypt, its only task is to make X.
And as with this tight, lately.

their characteristics are pretty similar and set a standard. Next decade will be the time when BTC replaces gold.

The value of bitcoin and gold cannot be compared because one is a digital product and the other is a natural product. The value of two things is difficult to compare because it cannot be quantified. And Bitcoin is a coin that is influenced by many factors.

The real gold is being with us from a long time before but the bitcoin is not like that we need to wait for accepting bitcoin us like the real gold it takes a some more long period of time for accepting by the people hope it will be happen soon.

bitcoin and real gold both have very valuable values, but the comparison of the two is clearly very different, especially in price movements. bitcoin is easier to experience increases and decreases in market prices compared to gold but can get faster profits if we have a smart trading strategy to sell and buy at the right time

Gold is difficult to transport, you will need large transport trucks and a security escort. Bitcoin is gold in the new digital world, not that doesn't have any use but it will be limited to jewelry and industrial use

People have long-called Bitcoin "Digital Gold" for reasons that it is scarce/limited supply and valuable as money that cannot be manipulated (as easily as fiat currencies). There will only ever be 21,000,000 Bitcoins in existence just like there will only ever be so many ounces of gold in existence. No more of either can be created out of thin air on a whim like the US Dollar or other fiat currencies.

However, if you want to use your Bitcoin to invest in real 24k Gold (or Platinum) for the fairest/moat transparent prices on the web then check out the link in my signature. \/ \/

Perhaps bitcoin and gold have some similar features, but they can not be identified. Now bitcoin is striving to become a global currency, a means of payment for goods and services. So it can be compared with Fiat money, but bitcoin is not material.

Over time, the cost of gold production will decrease, but the cost of BTC will become higher and higher.

so the point is bitcoin and gold are two things that are very valuable if we have for now and so on.
why should we look for differences if we can unite the similarities.

Bitcoin is a gold digital and can be dig by mining using computer,laptop and smartphone. With limited supply i can say someday bitcoin will grow upuch faster than i could imagine right now. So better hold on bitcoin than a real gold.

Bitcoin can be consider as digital gold because like gold it is very demanding and today majority of people try to collect gold due to its uniqueness, Increasing value and it is the same for bitcoin because even it is a currency and developed to use for payments we don't see anyone who use it in that way and many try to hold bitcoin rather than spending it so definitely bitcoins is very similar to gold in reality but I hope that will change in the future because I don't want to see a potential currency wasting inside wallets and exchanges without using for real and practical purposes   

Bitcoin and Gold are the same and different. Bitcoin and Gold are the same, namely having the same investment value and many people are looking for. And the difference is quite far, Gold is a real item, while Bitcoin is a digital item. And because of this, many lay people or people who have missed technological developments do not believe in Bitcoin, even say that Bitcoin is fraud. this is what hinders the development of Bitcoin, because it needs serious understanding if you want to understand Bitcoin. And people who don't believe in Bitcoin, will easily say Bitcoin will end when the price drops.

You may find similar aspects between bitcoin and real gold. Both of them have a great value in the market.
But there are many differences between them too. The gold price is very stable while the bitcoin price is unstable or volatile.
Anyway, they are very valuable because their supply is limited, and the demands is huge.

Old people with old mindset must be prefer choosing gold as their investment compare bitcoin. But for young age peoples, Bitcoin is a good alternative investment. I think bitcoin can be a store of value like as gold and if this happen, bitcoin price will rising because bitcoin have limited supply

It's true, the mindset of parents tends to see the gold that feels safer and has good value. And we as a person who is happy with the challenge then the bitcoin will be chosen. The challenges in bitcoin give us more creativity and have great potential to explore.

The truth there is a difference between gold and bitcoin, considering the price of gold tends to increase every year. but bitcoin has fluctuating prices. so that's a different thing I guess. maybe if for the purpose of explaining to people who do not understand Bitcoin it can be compared that Bitcoin like gold can be invested for the long term but of course the price is a different systematic

The main reason why older people choose gold is because they recognize it while they dont recognized bitcoin or any other cryptos because they older people dont surf the internet  .  we all know that cryptos are only popular online and it is been rarely broadcast on t.v and radios   .

But for us millenials we are always online , thats why we recognize cryptos and at the same time we also heard about gold but most millenials were actually vote on gold because gold is more stable and has a physical form where it can be easily kept or sell .

Bitcoin prices also increased a lot when compared to growth of gold but we can't compare it with gold for now since the existence of bitcoin is only for 10 years but gold since many centuries so don't compare gold investments with bitcoin because the return from gold is very less so it is less risky investments.

basically many compare bitcoin with gold because many think that has the same potential. I think that this is different. of course, bitcoin is a long-term investment, however, we cannot speculate that the price will change for a long time. it can be said that bitcoin is an investment that is quite risky. while gold, is a long-term investment that has a stable price, and has benefits recognized throughout the region.

Bitcoin right now already like commodity and the price always volatiling like others commodity. Gold not too volatile compare with bitcoin price because its already known for centuries and its establish investment. Different with bitcoin, its new market and new investment instrument and i think its natural when we see bitcoin price high fluctuating

Bitcoin is our modern currency, as we all know that gold is also a currency back then. The difference is that, bitcoin is digital and is super volatile in nature. Although gold has changes in value, it does not move as passive as bitcoin. Other thing is that, BTC is an investment and currency while gold is an investment and jewelry.

Bitcoin is digital asset have speculative price, how many time bitcoin could change and lower price, but some time bitcoin could be on higher price. based on how many investor want to buy or sell bitcoin.

Bitcoin exist as both a currency and a commodity and it's commodity features compare to gold just that bitcoin is extremely volatile unlike the relatively more stable gold which is why many prefer to invest in gold than bitcoin. As a currency i think bitcoin far outweighs gold because it can be used to move assets to every part of the world without government censorship but in order to transport just a kilogram of gold one has to go through documentation upon documentation and licensing and pay several taxes,.

Gold is material and for this it will end up being extracted in the future, but this will raise the selling price of each gram, the bitcoin in the same way not being material, when it ends the coin's placing on the market, the value will just grow up !!!!

in my opinion, bitcoin is almost the same as gold because it can be made an investment, the difference is that only bitcoin is digital while gold is real, in the form of metal. but what I know about gold is that if it is consumed by age, the price will go down while the bitcoin will go up and down depending on the market price rather than the factors above.

surely bitcoin and real gold are very different, bitcoin is a technology that was just created in 2009 while real gold already existed when in the past when many people used gold to make exchanges, gold and gold were very different physically so they would never can be equated.

What you say I think is not entirely because everything of value is under the influence of the market and the phenomenon of increasing and decreasing all individuals. Bitcoin unlike gold, a digital product cannot be compared to a natural product.

the difference is that only bitcoin is digital while gold is real. Bitcoin is our modern currency, as we all know that gold is also a currency back then. The truth there is a difference between gold and bitcoin. Bitcoin is a gold digital and can be dig by mining using computer.

the important thing to note is that the price of bitcoin has a very large price fluctuation, every hour can change quite dramatically, depending on demand and other external factors, different from gold which although the price movements are slow and tend to be stable, but if we calculate in a long period of time, still profitable gold in this matter

There really is a lot in common between bitcoin and gold. But the reality and materiality of gold gives it some advantage over the digital currency, which is concentrated in the Internet. But you are right, gold is also subject to fluctuations.

Yes, gold fluctuates much less. But bitcoin was created not so long ago, it is very young and therefore can not yet be as stable as gold, which has passed the test of time.

Although gold and bitcoin are constantly compared, I think it is wrong. These are two completely different investments, each has pros and cons. And although gold seems more stable, I still think that investing in bitcoin is much more profitable.

As long as both can give profits to the investor I don't see any problem. I would invest in bitcoin as much as I would invest in gold.

A big financial economic crisis is near for world economy. The bubble is going to be burst in near the future. Gold and BTC are two safe harbors. Buy gold and BTC(especially BTC while the price is relatively cheap) don't stay in fiat and never use the banking system.

Both of them do have advantages, even though the bitcoin is rallying down but I still see it will provide benefits in time.
Gold does have a more stable value, certainly many also invest in gold.

But still gold is a more stable method of investment, because it has already passed the test of time for many centuries. Therefore, gold is more trustworthy than bitcoin. But this does not mean that it is better, it's just two completely different investments. And everyone has to choose what suits him more. For example, I prefer to invest only in cryptocurrency, because I see much more prospects in this.

people Don't realise that btc Will become new Gold standard.

I think that the exchange of Bitcoin for gold is positive news for investors. If gold is changed to Bitcoin, this means that Bitcoin needs to be bought.

News that attracts bitcoin can buy gold bars, but that's for bitcoin, doesn't accept altcoins. Slowly but surely the development of crypto is starting to be seen and gold can be bought with bitcoin, of course, later it will lure other companies to accept bitcoin as a real transaction tool.

Right now, gold more popular and more acceptable than bitcoin because gold already used as investment instrument for centuries. But i am believe in the future, when bitcoin popularity growing, people prefer choosing bitcoin because its more secure and safe

Bitcoin and gold have good values, both have a future. Gold is valuable, but for long-term investment, it is not necessarily a big profit because the value looks more stable. Bitcoin value is always volatile and can explode anytime and is indeed good for investment.

a good comparison to be an equation, with useful benefits in the future because both are feasible for the long term the price will be very large. most of now investors who know about bitcoin are investing in bitcoin to get a bigger profit than gold.

I thought we have gone pass the comparison until bitcoin price drop this low again, we might discuss this for a while again while bitcoin gets back on its feet. Its a contemporary argument.

I think one of the reason for gold to be popular among investors are because people could always have the choice to make gold into luxury jewelries and they could wear the jewelries as luxury fashion accessories to attend important events, so I would not really compare gold with bitcoin since both of these assets does have their own advantages, and I do invest in both gold bar and bitcoin at the moment too.

How do you know this? The production of gold has been stable for many years and so has mining bitcoin which incurs costs of the mining rigs, which is an initial outlay, followed by ongoing costs which is the cost of the electricity.

Are you sure about that? when the price of bitcoin declines especially last year, can you benefit? I think some of the bitcoin investors in the past year were very alarming. Some of them go and sell in a state of loss, and I just want to know, does investing in gold have the same risk as bitcoin? gold is still the ideal place to invest. However, I always remember about high risk, high profit and low risk and low profit, maybe that's the only difference between bitcoin and gold.

To this I would also like to add a few thoughts for reflection.
Now gold has moved into the class of investment assets. Bitcoin and gold have two similar characteristics: they have limited reserves and have approximately the same value in different countries of the world.
Once upon a time, mankind used gold as a means of payment, but over time, due to inconvenience, this changed. Already, paper money is not always convenient to use, so the transition to electronic currencies is just a matter of time. And the main contender for this will be Bitcoin. Already now there is an opportunity to pay for goods and services by Bitcoin.
Therefore, I support a positive attitude towards Bitcoin and the future market situation!

Comparing bitcoin with gold, there are a number of different things. First, bitcoin has no form and gold has its form. Secondly, the bitcoin price is not stable while gold is very stable.
From these two points of view, it cannot compare gold with bitcoin, because gold investors certainly have different characteristics from bitcoin investors. Bitcoin investors must be bolder than safer gold investors.

btc Price is stable now...
its a lot to do with stable coins.
Gold is nice and good but as Investment bitcoin is best of the best.
Bitcoin is not for making profit but btc is good to hold your money in btc to protect your funds against inflation.

Gold is Old,  gold is just nice but Bitcoin has LIQUITITITY

I'm a bitcoin lover but I don't agree with your opinion. You should not compare gold and bitcoin, bitcoin is valuable but it is not yet widely used, while gold has long been recognized. Gold beyond value is a method of asset storage, it also has many other uses such as making jewelry, electronic circuits... For me Bitcoin cannot be compared to gold, bitcoin can be replaced by new technologies but gold will remain forever, history has proven it.

in this problem, I see bitcoin as bitcoin, and gold as gold. right if you say that the two investments are the best investment. however, these two things have their own advantages and disadvantages. however, I see that currently gold is still quite good compared to bitcoin because it is more stable. however, in terms of utilization, I think bitcoin is better because the rotation is very fast.

Gold is widely accepted as an asset but, if take BTC the adoption is still in starting stage and the price is highly volatile. Both has its advantages and disadvantages. I do agree that they have similarities like price variations but, Gold is not a payment instrument as they used to. But, BTC is meant for digital decentralized transactions.

Bitcoin and gold have a big difference. The only similarity of these two is that the rules of supply and demand can be applied here and those who hold gold can relate to this cryptocurrency. Bitcoin is a digital gold but unlike real gold, it is not manipulated by the government and all people that have proper knowledge can invest or buy bitcoin that's why the volatility of it is high.

Surely gold is way better for some stablecoins you can surely earn profit but from years of stocking gold not like stable coins who grow much faster than gold.But gold is a secured invesment for me i never seen someone lose money with gold

You might compare between bitcoin and real gold. People who contact Bitcoin for the first time want to compare it with gold, but I agree with you. So basically bitcoin and gold are two very valuable things.

lol "real gold"

Bitcoin is digital gold, its the best way to describe it and the whole reason why we call it mining bitcoin. I am not so sure why people struggle with the concept. It is pretty easy to grasp.
Gold is horrible anyway. Who wants gold unless they golden bitcoins with the private key on.

Rather invest your money into a company or an idea then on gold. The value doesn't rise as much as you can make investing elsewhere.

Yes, they can be similar in many aspects but maybe it is just every asset which can achieve a price like that always display similarities like these two. What about Titanium and others why only to you compare gold with Bitcoin because it is closer to its price. I do not think about Bitcoin being with gold in any scenario.

Bitcoin, in my opinion, is much better than gold. For job lovers Online especially for crypto, of course, Bitcoin is a very valuable thing. But gold and Bitcoin are equally profitable and many people have the advantage of trading Bitcoin. They were with the results of the profit to buy gold. Because in the real world by having gold can improve the quality of their lives.

Your comparing between bitcoin and gold is right, but why you are not agree on it that bitcoin is just like gold.
Let see, if you think that bitcoin will be cross $15000 in this year, then bitcoin price more powerful than gold and investors always do investment because of earn profit. So bitcoin has more profit then gold and it is also safest way.   

Gold investment prioritizes security rather than increasing profits, compared to bitcoin. Within a few days the increase in the price of bitcoin could be tens of percent, something that is very difficult to happen to other investments, but the risk is greater because price movements rise and fall at any time can occur.
So for speculation it's better to invest in bitcoin, because the profits gained are far greater than the investment in gold. I think having bitcoin is tantamount to having a digital gold treasure, which can make its owner a millionaire in the future.

Yes bitcoin and Gold both having price volatility but major difference between bitcoinand gold is supply limit . Bitcoin is having maximum of 21 miilion supply . Gold is not knowing even cant get the overall supply limit . thats were both making difference . Bitcoin is more valuable than gold

Definitely. Not everyone even likes gold. I don't. I can't send you gold now if I want to buy something from you. I would have to transfer assets in stocks for gold and that can take some time. Crypto it is very quick to make trades compared to traditional methods. Though thinking about it, it doesn't matter what my personal opinion is of gold since others like it and if they will pay for it then I can profit, however gold is very stable and there is not all that much room for profit. In the long-term I think there are better things to invest in. I only see gold as an investable purchase for investment diversity for people who already have many investments. Maybe it brings comfort to know even if we lose all power in the world and the lights all go off and we lose internet their golden coloured lumps will be worth something. Not that life would be that great living with no power to begin with.

my opinion is that bitcoin and gold are certainly very different. if bitcoin with the price of ups and downs is very fantastic. unlike the price of gold, it will not be too far when going up and down

With the development of technology, when we will penetrate deep into the Earth and explore space, I think that the cost of gold mining, on the contrary, will fall and it will become much more. This can even lead to a drop in its price. However, I do not see the need to compare gold and bitcoin. These are completely different assets and, in my opinion, they have more differences than similarities.

All assets and commodities will experience price changes depending on several reasons. even all who have prices will definitely change according to the conditions around. as well as gold, although many people say that gold is a safe investment, but the price decline is definitely to occur, even if in small amounts thought

The only difference between real gold and bitcoin is simple the crypto nature and the real asset with secure future  and investing in crypto is the secure way to make progress for improvement and i think Gold is better for those who have not enough skills to use their money for making profit and now a days many exchanges are operating for crypto investment.

indeed gold is an investment with a profit not as big as crypto if you experience a price increase, but the risk of gold is lighter than crypto ... but to make money quickly I agree with you in crypto many exchanges operate for crypto

Yes. Comparing bitcoin with physical gold is like comparing apples with oranges.
You have to compare bitcoin with a gold-backed stablecoin.
That would make more sense

Now, in my opinion, bitcoin is more valuable than gold, because the increase in value is so fast that it is very feasible to become an investment. Unlike gold, growth is slow, but more stable.
Speculators really like bitcoin investment, because the velocity of money in the crypto market is so large that price movements are very fast, especially if there is positive information from large countries or capital markets such as Wall Street that issues statements that support crypto.

Yes you are right.. both are our assets and both are worthy and precious for us.. dnt knw why people compare gold and bitcoin.

Yeah right  you are.. but i want to say one thing if the prices of bitcoin is gradually  changing so do you know the Gold prices are also increasing..

Bitcoin and real gold are two investments that are equally profitable. But real gold is more stable and bitcoin is more volatile. If now I am asked to choose between the two then I will choose Bitcoin because Bitcoin is proven to provide a pretty good profit now. The benefits we get from bitcoin are quite large compared to real gold. But if you want long-term investment, the real gold is more promising and far from the word loss.

Bitcoin and Gold aren't equally profitable, what we profit out of bitcoin is much high compared to the profiting from gold investments.
For long term profiting bitcoin is better than gold, just consider the people who kept hold buying at a price lower than $5000. Just in terms of safe holding people mention gold to be better to have a safe investment. Bitcoin is far safer than gold when saved on a hardware wallet when the choice is long term investment.

Thanks to Juan Kendrick, it’s only because of his guidance I’ve been able to survive the crypto bear market of 2018. My funds and fortune dwindled at an alarming rate since the beginning of last year due to the bear market of 2018 until Mr. Kendrick showed me a professional way to trade. With his help, I’ve been able to grow my BTC holdings from 1.5 to more than 17 BTC now. You might need his assistant too juankendrick00atgmaildotcom ?

agree. if seen from the growth from year to year bitcoin increases the value of its assets even though there is a downturn but it can rise again. and bitcoin is a legit digital asset. when compared to gold in the form of objects, bitcoin is a valuable digital asset for now.

if I prefer bitcoin bro. even though investing in bitcoin has a very high risk but I am used to being even addicted to always buy bitcoin both for the long term or short term

Well, bitcoin has different value and it is somehow determine by the market but it could also be good if bitcoin will be associated with real gold. As the graphics of btc showing the color gold if that woulf be realize then bitcoin is already a currency that could have a good value.

Bitcoin is a digital asset whereas Gold is a physical entity and the exchange of both the asset is different. Bitcoin can get exchange worldwide but not the gold it has certain barricades, price fluctuation, etc. which differentiate Gold and bitcoin from each other.

I agree, as bitcoin prices fluctuates more rapidly than gold so it is suitable for short term investment and gold is always a valuable asset to posses.

at this time bitcoin is starting to have hopes of rising again i am having fun all of you may be the same so this is very true that bitcoin and gold have many similarities like the fall in the value of this currency makes us always ask questions and wonder the value of this currency when going up again and when we are benefiting this is what makes us always expect to expect positive things for the bitcoin currency so this has been realized today Bitcoin is starting to rise and this is what I hope this will last a long time

The fluctuation is because the market capitalization of bitcoin compared to gold is relatively small. With bitcoin there is still a manipulation of price can be done if you have huge chunk of money or whales are working together although there's no clear proof about that but most of people saying so but logically thinking that could be done because how fragile people's emotions are just by dumping people will all be doing cutlose thus further dumps the market.

According to many observers, it is not just gold. Gold  is more than that. Gold price is very low. However, due to the BTC trade, there is a lot more to rise. That is why I think that day is not far away. BTC Buy it as a future asset.

bitcoin is also/can be an enitity and gold is also an asset  . there is a version of digital gold while there is also a physical version of bitcoin .  the only difference is that they are being traded on seperate exchange .


bitcoin is not legal on some countries therfor it cant be exchange worldwide but gold is verry legal and i think its accepted globally . gold is also stable and dont have price fluctuation but bitcoin has  .

No doubt today bitcoin has a highest price of this year, and we should see the gold has also going to up, then i agree with you, both have similarities between each other prices. But i like bitcoin more than gold, that's why i prefer bitcoin to investment on it.

Agree with what you say that bitcoin and gold are very clear differences. although both are often used as investments. Bitcoin certainly has better advantages compared to gold, for long-term investments, of course.

In some other countries they are comparing bitcoin and gold as a treasure because it is rare to get one. You can mine both of them but in bitcoin you can mine them using a miner GPU that cost very expensive and you can get it patiently a weeks or a months or a year to have that big amount. Bitcoin now a days are also use by buying golds through digital transactions as payments.

if I still choose bitcoin bro. because the number of bitcoin is limited and every day there are people who invest in bitcoin. whereas gold every day is always printed. and the amount is very much almost unlimited. surely the price increases it will take a long time

Of course bitcoin better if is seen the price is valid as this and in the future because the price is expected to be growing up, but the price is often changed drastically so fit to be used as a investment the long term. Gold is a investment that can be said safe that the price is a relatively steady from year to year. Both have advantage and weakness.

I share your point of view. I don't doubt that gold is somewhat stable and a lot more stable than Bitcoin.

But seriously, what is the innovation gold itself will bring towards the future? It is really good for conducting electricity and is being used in spaceships and a lot of electronic devices for those who can afford it and in some in really small quantities so it's not that expensive. But for the future, besides robotics and the usages they are already giving to it there's not so much innovation left for it.

And that is precisely where i want to stay my friend. This point of view is interesting because others might feel identified with my point of view and that kind of people is from who Steve Jobs talked about when he referred to those that are crazy enough to think that they can change the world.

Those are ones who end up doing it if they put in the hard effort.

Always printed? Who planted that idea to you bro? Are you talking about fiats? It is true that while the time goes by, the price of bitcoin is increasing so much a lot of investors are investing now to it but I will choose gold and I know a lot of people will do too. It is not bad to invest in these two and we don't even need to compare this two since it will be the head assets in the future.

Gold can be owned and handled in many forms.
Physical, ETF's shares, gold certificates, etc... and as gold-backed Stablecoins.
I find the latter ones very innovative.
Merging gold stability, the centuries old trust that people have in gold as money, with the benefits of blockchain, creating a form of digital money suitable to the needs of today's society

it is true that Bitcoin is very similar to Gold and is suitable for long-term investment.
we can see the increase in the price of Bitcoin from the first time he appeared until now, and Gold, which is increasingly experiencing price increases.
but the striking difference is that gold experienced a slow increase while Bitcoin experienced a rapid increase.
it proves that Bitcoin is more promising than gold.

Hey guys, I've recently joined the crypto world and there are many questions in my head as I am a newbie. Yes I've been through the thread for the newbies but still there are few questions as this particular thread explains and compares bitcoin with gold. I feel this is pretty much useful information. I agree with the statements which were said, bitcoin is similar with gold but what makes it different is bitcoin's range increases faster and that's what makes it better.

Also remember that the price of gold will never rise at such heights in such a short amount of time. It is only precisely useful if you're looking for a way to maintain value with most amount of stability possible under most circumstances.

But if you are smart enough and a bit fear resistant then anyone could try this movement and if they really were smart enough, they won't be disappointed.

It's a stupid comparison. How can you say it's not safe to keep gold? It's surely safer than storing your coins in an exchange (which you don't have any control on the top of that). BTC  more profitable than gold? Ok go to tell that to someone who bought when the price was $20,000.
Yes Bitcoin can be used online but it can't off line,

An interesting situation will be when there will be no Internet or another online, and all will sell gold, because they bought Bitcoin.  This I certainly spoke with sarcasm, but nevertheless, everything in life can be.

I think BTC is more than gold, because now the value of BTC is more than gold ;D ;D ;D ;D

How do you determine the value of gold and Bitcoin in their ratio?  I think that there are certain material values ​​that cannot be doubted.  Although bitcoin and gold I would not compare.

I saw an ad a little while ago about investing in gold and how you can profit well off of it. I just laughed. We have no time for ancient technology like gold. Sure it looks nice but that's all I see it as,
I don't see it as an asset but rather a product. I guess if you have too much money and nothing to do with it you could stock up on gold bars or coins.


Depends, you will have to work out the total capital for each and / by the existing amount.

Bitcoin and Gold ..Both have similar qualities.But bitcoin is more valuable than bitcoin when comes to trading.If you trade bitcoin in correct time you can earn few times more profits than gold.Bitcoin has more growth rate in prize value than gold.Bitcoin is high volatile than Gold.Gold is low volatile.If you like to get more profits you should invest in bitcoin

Comparing of bitcoin and gold.as you defined about bitcoin obviously they have different literally.well for me my opinion they are different because we know that bitcoin is run by digital technologies.you can convert into fiat money by transaction usung digital technologies.even your not holding literally tgis bitxoin you can stilll use it.easily to access using digital wallet.easy to carry where ever you are.you can use also where ever you are.
About gold as we know this is an heavy things that should be change first into money.heqvy to carry but we also know it has s big equivalent money if you covert to money but you have to carry  this to shop to exchange into money. The difference of two is that much more easier to use bitcoin than gold.you already said the other differences of bitcoin and gold.
why you saying bitcoin is real gold is it because bitcoin should be value like gold that everyones value and keep it and use it in time. Both are valuable and both can be usead money.

even though gold and bitcoin have the same fluctuations. but bitcoin has a higher fluctuation rate. for those who know bitcoin, it might not be a problem investing in it, but for those who don't understand bitcoin, they are certainly afraid to invest. moreover not many countries legalize it

So what’s the point of this thread?for comparison of gold and bitcoin?

Gold price also goes rise and fall but no bad as Bitcoin,gold never drops the value up to 700% in which bitcoin does year ago so the difference is too large and I think enough for someone to get panic if they didn’t trust the cryptocurrency and the technology about this

But at least you broadcast this thread to help others understand what people need to do when some downtrend happens

gold is still worth, and many people buy it than bitcoin.  you know if gold is famous than bitcoin, all of people know about it and i think you cant loss your money if you buy gold. chance to loss your fund in bitcoin is bigger than gold, but the profit that bitcoin gives ís tantalizing. both of them have advantages and disadvantages

People compare Bitcoin to gold because gold is the perfect investment item that has a lot of people investing into. Considering the crypto space, Bitcoin is also the coin most people in this space largely invest in. Since there is some similarities between them making Gold the perfect item to compare Bitcoin to.

For me personally, the difference between bitcoin and gold is the same. It is a faster way to make money. This is an opportunity not having a large capital, gradually to secure a carefree and happy old age.

There are similarities and differences. Probably the most important difference is that gold is material. Many people do believe in bitcoin, simply because "they can't touch it." Especially elderly

You are right..bitcoin never will be vanish like gold..its price sometimes increase sometimes decrease but its does't mean it that will be vanish

bitcoin now becomes some kind of refuge asset..

They are both separate assets. We may see a cryptocurrency backed by gold one day in some countries, if they so wished to do so. Either way, it is possible to exchange between Bitcoin and Gold and you can do so here (https://www.smartbitcoininvestments.com/how-to-buy-gold-with-bitcoin/).

Both Bitcoins and Gold are unmatched for the value that they provide .
The companies allowing the buying and selling of the gold however, Works very differently , they infact allow you to hold the gold for only 2 months if you are investing in funds .
This is very hectic , I mean you can actually buy the time you are supposed to encash but sometimes it may land you in a loss.
Whereas , Bitcoins , they allow you the freedom to choose whatever you wanna do , there is no telling by the the companies , the wallets or anything else.
I think it is amazing, how it just works with Bitcoins.

I can not and do not want to say anything bad about cryptocurrency, but believe me, I feel much calmer when I own a certain amount of gold.  Many of my friends make big money using the cryptocurrency market, but nonetheless the main investments are in real business and real valuable assets, including gold.

I only think gold and bitcoin have the same investment value, but now I only want Bitcoin investment because of its value, because Bitcoin has more value than gold and I can buy gold when I profit from Bitcoin investment..

Bitcoin and gold have differences and there are also similarities, maybe the similarities are equally investment places, the difference is in terms of prices that are very volatile or fluctuating in bitcoin, so most people choose gold which is more stable and not  have a risk that is too large for the losses that will be borne

I think that the main assets of people are in securities and metals.  In the cryptocurrency dampen or those funds for which you do not need to worry, or those that in any case are not the last in your personal budget.  But definitely there must be confidence that investing in Bitcoin in a few years can bring not only 100 x, Perhaps even 1000 X.

Gold never vanished. It is still best-wanted precious metal, the investment that can make you if not a billionaire then a rich person. Bitcoin can vanish unfortunately as soon as it is not physical stuff, but I am also sure that it will live for many years.

We can't compare Bitcoin and Gold because both have own value in digital and physical point of view, many folks saying BTC will reach GOLD level.
NO doubt both are the best investment at the moment but big investors still suggest investment in gold, one day BTC will blow gold investors mind!

Yeah, it's not only Bitcoin suffers from constant increases and decreases, but other currencies as well, including real gold. But still, I suppose our common money and gold aren't so volatile as they are controlled by the government. But I could be wrong...

Bitcoin and gold are exactly different from each other in terms of its existence. In terms of valuation both were on the demand to the supply availability. Gold being universal accepted for its physical presence and the years of history it holds within the metal. Bitcoin is completely technology backed system which has grown as the demand peaked in very short time period. Some countries have listed bitcoin under the same section on which gold falls for the taxation purpose. This way it is upto the person who decides bitcoin and gold can be considered the same or different.

Of course, each of us can give some examples of what Bitcoin or gold is better for him.  But I do not want to delve into this kind of controversy, because I believe that a pragmatic person who has financial capabilities should have both Bitcoin and gold available.  Even in small quantities, but it is possible to guarantee a comfortable existence in the future.

Why do people waste their time always trying to compare bitcoin with real gold? These two entities are unique in their own significant way and are no way alike. Its high time people stop seeing Bitcoin as an asset. Bitcoin is never an aspect and will never be one.

We can boast that Bitcoin has the following gold-like characteristics:

1. The Supother is limited, where there will only be 21 million bitcoins spread across the world.

2. Not created by the central Bank/government, but by a party unknown to its original identity.

3. Not manufactured or controlled by an individual, group or company.

4. Impossible to be duplicated.

5. It is durable and not easily destroyed.

6. Acquired by means of mining, but using the program and mathematical algorithms.

7. Can be transacted around the world.

8.Transactions are irreversible, meaning once Bitcoin is given to someone else's hands, the transaction cannot be cancelled unless the person is willing to send the Bitcois back.

9. Can be exchanged and traded with various currencies in the world.

Bitcoin will never become anything even approximately similar to real gold, these are two completely different substances. With different goals and purposes.

Bitcoin and real gold are two forms of investment that are equally profitable. But I can only give advice if you want to use it for short-term investments so bitcoin is the right choice. Bitcoin price volatility makes bitcoin prices in the future difficult to predict for sure. Bitcoin is very dependent on the internet so that when the internet dies, bitcoin will automatically be destroyed. If you want to invest for the long term, gold is a more appropriate choice. Physically, the form of gold does exist so that it can be seen in plain view. Even this gold applies in any country because it is a real form.

yes, it just needs to be recognized by people all over the world, then become the official means of trading, it is the gold of the future

Bitcoin is a digital asset. Gols is a gener accepted financial instrument. Earlier all people want to hold gold.Now all people want to hald BTC. Time changes and financial standarts also... By the way want to hear from you what trading platform do you use? Personally i prefer Monfex because of its 20X leverage and safety. What about you ?

Bitcoin and gold are completely different financial assets that have virtually nothing in common. They invest in them, since they profit from rising prices. This is one of the few common similarities. However, even if we consider them as a means of storing value, then bitcoin is very difficult for Bitcoin due to its very high price volatility.

Many say that Bitcoin can be considered a virtual gold. However, don't forget about the volatility of Btc and the fact that if tomorrow hype is gone, Btc price goes to zero.

Gold could never reach zero value because there are many currencies being guaranteed by gold and if you have some gold that nobody wants one day you can at least build your own jewelry from it.

Let's look at reason why Gold cannot go to $0. I can think of at LEAST 2 reasons:

1) Gold can make very good and reliable electronic contacts.  If gold is cheap then it will be used instead of tin, copper, and other metal that corrode in its environment and make computer and other electronics unreliable
2) Gold will not rust.  I can build a house with roof plated with 1mm worth of gold if its $1/oz (still not $0)
and it will not leak for centuries.   Gold is extremely malleable and unlike copper it won't harden due to wind and mechanical vibration (and it would develop micro fracture which is why copper roof can leak)

Bitcoin can go to $0 in following cases:

1) All coins were made unusable, for example run out of 0's on merkle root so no new transactions can be had due to extremely fast computer/miner that secure the bitcoin network before a hard fork to address these issues,
2) network protocol which bitcoin runs on achieves 100% ban / packet blocked globally.

If gold attracts capital due to its stability, then in the case of Bitcoin, the opposite is true - the trader is interested in BTC precisely because of its volatility. The best way to diversify risks is to store your savings in these two assets at the same time. So, the trader can leave part of the savings in gold, which will bring long-term benefits, but after a long time, and store the second part in cryptocurrencies, engaging in constant trading.

Yes, you right about gold. You wrong about bitcoin. That is like having a meteor falling from the sky and landing on you. The odds are the same. Nothing can go to 0 value. Every single thing in this world has got a value given to it in some form or way or another.

Gold has many years, a lot of history and is considered the biggest way out or solution to global financial crises, in all events gold is present to support any type of economy, action, among others.

Bitcoin is something very different, it is a digital currency that has no support, and that is based on Blockchain technology that has a very large market where it is governed by the Law of Supply-Demand, where it is of a decentralized nature, has little history , only 10 years after its appearance, despite this it has gone through the market phases where volatility is very high and has generated an alternative economy where it puts the traditional economy in check.

The only thing that gold and Bitcoin have in common is that they both represent money, and where there is money there are interests, where they are very different but they resemble each other because most people want to have them.

I believe that the biggest advantage that Bitcoin has over Gold is that it is easy to transfer, large sums of money can be handled and its transaction takes very little time to arrive from its issuer to any part of the world, paying a not-so-high Fee like the one that would be paid to send gold from one side to another across borders and paying a lot in permits and taxes.
