Bitcoin is the Choice of Investors

Gold has had hedging functions for many years, while Bitcoin is just getting started, implying that Bitcoin will earn additional value over the next ten years.
Taking a cue from Ark Invest CEO Cathie Wood, I can state unequivocally that investors are currently paying more Keen interest on Bitcoin than ever before.

ARK Invest is an American investment management firm that provides solutions to investors seeking profitable development in the public market. Notably, the US Securities and Exchange Commission has received an application from this company seeking to establish a Bitcoin ETF for trading on the spot market.

Cathie Wood, who appeared on the show 'Merryn Talks Money' to discuss current financial events, chose Bitcoin over gold for a decade. Her stance was that young people who represent the futures market prefers holding Bitcoin, and Bitcoin has recently outperformed Gold in terms of hedging.
Some significant points that I believe investors are taking note of is that:

• During the March 2023 regional bank crisis, the value of Bitcoin increased from $18,900 to $30,000. This was a strong indication that Bitcoin is more than just a hedge against inflation; it is also a "Safe Haven."
• "Transparent and Decentralized" is how Bitcoin describes itself and this has remain true over time.
  

The caption is actually confusing because using the word "investors" and not "some investors" is actually equivocal.  There is no doubt Bitcoin has gained significant popularity given the uncertainties in the global political and financial systems. A lot of investors are actually looking for a safe haven, but I wouldn't say Bitcoin is their choice already.

The approval of some of the Bitcoin ETF will actually pave the way for some of these investors to enter into Bitcoin.

Well, for us obviously it's a best choice for investors. We have seen Bitcoin's tremendous journey since it's inception and how a few of it's early adopters become millionaires today and they have wielded so much influence and then we want to emulate how they made profits in Bitcoin, and so we become holders.

But there are also one group in the other side, we might be going into altcoins with gives better result in terms of ROI but the risk is there.

And some who invest on Gold, not that volatile, but still as a long term it's one of the best.

So it's up to us where we want to put our money here or in other commodities/assets.

Bitcoin is the choice investment not because of anything other than safety. profit? We got shitcoins and other currencies on the market with a low marketcap but high potential upturns to rely upon should we feel the need to. It's just that bitcoin is the most consistent cryptocurrency out there that it makes it so appealing to the public. People want consistency in their profit stream and since bitcoin could provide that with its cyclical 4-year nature wherein you can pretty much say that every 4 years or so we got a good chance of going big, the choice becomes apparent.

So when you say that "bitcoin is the choice of investors", it doesn't inspire the same energy as when you'd say it for something like another stock or cryptocurrency, at least for me. Don't get me wrong, I love bitcoin as much as the next guy but it just doesn't bring that much impact to me you know.

I've owned a few share of ARKK for a little while now.  It's been performing horribly over the last year or so.  I have left my money in it but probably will dump it here before long.  So I guess what I'm saying is I'm not sure I trust her judgement.  However I do agree that bitcoin is becoming a better asset/hedge etc as time has been going on when ETFs start to be issued here, I can see things really taking off.

Over time, after the events of 2017, investors are gradually discovering and seeing that the value of Bitcoin is not going down, so investors may be thinking that if they don't buy Bitcoin now, they will definitely be left alone in the end.

After all, who are the rich investors who will not buy Bitcoin today in this era? If well-known and big companies around the world are already investing in Bitcoin and cryptocurrency, how much more so are people like us who are not rich? This is where we should imitate the positive view of rich investors; after all, Bitcoin does not choose how much you can buy, as long as you can afford it, of course.

During Russia Ukraine war, lot of people from Russia moved funds from banks into crypto. It shows that the trust of people on crypto is increasing day by day. Current investors should hold and continue investing more. Because increased demand will also push the prices up.

So how do you explain bitcoin falling from $69k to $15k by 2022 as inflation and crisis peak? If talking about an asset class with good growth potential, a potential investment that will bring high profits, bitcoin really deserves to be number 1. But saying it is a safe haven is not entirely correct, bitcoin is not suitable as a safe haven at the present time. That may become true in the future as the popularity of bitcoin grows as well as the recognition of bitcoin by governments and organizations.

The one thing I probably don't find interesting with Ark Invest's Cathie Wood is her overly bullish predictions. She must have her own analyses, of course, but she doesn't seem realistic. As a result, she sounds like she simply wants to cause a FOMO especially among institutions. She was wrong before and has already admitted that they had to temper their assumptions. But even so, they're still convinced that the price could still grow above a million dollars within this decade alone. I highly doubt this, although I wish she ends up proving me wrong.

Not really sure if bitcoin is ready to be called a "safe haven" and "inflation hedge"; it's technically true on some timeframes, but it's a bit too volatile right now for those titles. For now, it's still moving like a high-beta asset. But maybe in the future bitcoin can 'officially' earn those titles.

Not discounting the value and importance of gold since I believe it will always have a place in the heart of many traders and investors, there is no question that as far as excitement, interest and enthusiasm can be concerned it is Bitcoin that is the hands down winner...at least for the time being. Actually, there is no competition between the two as they both have different value, functions and benefits. As far as possible ROI on the line, many experts might say that Bitcoin can give one better chance of financial benefits than gold though in terms of stability we know that BTC is very volatile...we don't know when it would make a bull run or a big dump as we saw in its short historical display.

Investors will of course choose to invest according to their wishes, some choose bitcoin, some choose gold and some choose something other than gold and bitcoin.
I choose to invest in BTC because I see the profits that can be obtained from investing in BTC, especially today the price of BTC has risen again which of course gives happiness to BTC investors who buy under $30k. In my opinion, investing in anything cannot be separated from risk, and usually high risk will provide high returns, but low risk will certainly provide low returns. but in my opinion it is better to invest in assets that have permission from the government and I dare to invest in BTC because I have permission from the government of my country even though my government does not allow people to use BTC as a means of payment.

Well, this doesn't say anything new to me, although we could qualify that it is mostly for younger investors, as Wood also says. Today it is more of an investment than a P2P currency and it looks like it will continue to be so. If spot ETFs are approved, for example, what will happen is that it will be used more as an investment vehicle, and not as a currency, although it will always maintain that part.

Well this statement is quite blurry. Yes its a good choice for investment but Im not gonna called itt a safe haven as anything is possible in thr market. If love crypto and everyone think so too but obviously we cant predict that it always going up and a good hedge for fund especially its so volatile. But one thing is for sure, it might be a good option other than else.

There are many different reasons why investors invest in Bitcoin. And it cannot be denied that perhaps the main reason some people try to make big profits or make money especially for the long term, and others may do it because it is a good way to hedge against global economic instability and other factors. And no matter who you are, crypto is a great and safe place to invest because it is never tied to banks or government monetary policies and Bitcoin is freedom and a way to take control of their financial future and achieve financial independence.
And that doesn't mean investors don't make other investments, and what is certain is that they know what is best for them and Bitcoin is an alternative or one of their choices too.

Young people are tech-savvy that's why they are attracted to Bitcoin. They are also well aware of its benefits which outweigh fiat and some investments. Regarding Bitcoin outperforming gold I read a  research (https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S104244312300032X#:~:text=The%20findings%20show%20that%20bitcoin,existing%20literature%20on%20the%20topic.) that indicated that the cryptocurrency indeed provided stronger short-term risk hedging in the G7 stock markets compared to gold during the COVID-19 and Russo-Ukrainian War periods. I hope the sudden love that institutional investors such as Cathie Wood are expressing towards bitcoin is genuine and will last for a long time.

It has also been observed that Bitcoin is also affected by other economic conditions such as inflation and interest rates, especially in the US. The COVID-19 pandemic and the energy crisis caused by Russia and Ukraine are all examples of the connection between Bitcoin and the global economy. For now, it can be viewed as a hedge against inflation in nations that are going through hyperinflation mostly in developing nations. However, it could also be a good inflation hedge if it is held for a long time.

Choosing Bitcoin as an asset to invest in is the choice of investors who pay attention to investment value.
Bitcoin itself is an investment asset that has hedging value against fiat currencies in the long term. The increase in the number of Bitcoin adoptions is due to the fact that in the not too distant future, Bitcoin's hedging against fiat currency has provided an answer to several events that have caused fiat currency to have an impact on the economy.

Even though Bitcoin contains risks, there is research that concludes that Bitcoin can be a safe haven and contains diversification benefits[1].
The paper from the source that I linked conducted a study on hedging and safe havens between Bitcoin and fiat currencies.
[1]. Is Bitcoin a hedge or safe haven for currencies? An intraday analysis (https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S1057521918307622)

Thanks for sharing obvious things. Bitcoin has become a thing among investors. The shift from gold to digital assets is noteworthy. Bitcoin's rise in value during the banking crisis suggests that its attractiveness as a "Safe Haven" asset is growing, given its performance throughout economic downturns.

Bitcoin revolutionizes money and investing due to its decentralization. Decentralization creates many problems, such as the lack of a central authority to interfere in market manipulations or retrieve lost cash. But who cares, anyway? Investors' responses to these problems and Bitcoin's integration into the financial system will be fascinating as it matures.

You can even hold bitcoin and wait 4 years for the bull season to return.  meanwhile, you only invest in ARKK stock for 1 year, and you can also see how bad the world economic situation is.  therefore, I completely disagree with you when you think that investing in ARKK stock is too bad, everything needs time and the right time to make a profit and the same goes for stocks.  but it cannot be denied that the profits of stocks will not be as great as bitcoin gives us, but diversification is also a great thing that we should not ignore.  you are a financial advisor, I think you understand that better than anyone.

I love it when people says about This Market is a safe haven because of that example and indeed ,
  the transparency and the Decentralization of Bitcoin is why people now are shifting from banks to crypto and yes also to help
people having faster transactions without Government interference so yes even if I am given many chance I will still choose Bitcoin
 and yes that is what the futures gonna tell the world when the success of bitcoin cross the universe .

Bitcoin because every passing year does not have a continuous fall in value in the market; although there is a fall in price, it is not continuous either; instead, it is still able to recover little by little in the market to recover the original, whose price is ATH every time a halving happens.

So maybe he is having an attraction to investors; actually, Bitcoin is not the only one that has such a scenario; even ETH, BnB, and other cryptocurrencies are also following the wave that Bitcoin is making, not even as evenly, but they also lift the crypto market.

Truly there has been an increasing or growing interest in Bitcoin lately on the investor's side seeing the ETF fillings on the ground to get approved by the SEC, specifically growing interest from institutional investors, Such as Ark Invest, Black Rock, Grayscale, and the rest of them. It has become clear to them that Bitcoin is no longer the Ponzi scheme that they thought it used to be, it has become a safe Heaven digital asset to them in times of economic crisis, wars, and economic sanctions such as we saw during the beginning of the Russians invention of Ukraine and supper hedge to inflation,  Thus brought about there confidence to invest.

Traditional investors now feel safe as;  ETFs, among others, have helped them feel confident, it is not that they have confidence in the asset or what it represents, it is trust in the environment, since that attracts those who put in the money they manage.

The intelligent investor uses the money of third parties, then the more conditions of trust the government provides under his directive, they know that any crash protects them, the legal vacuum is what has kept traditional investors away.

So, now you can see them saying to bitcoin:
 "...hedge against inflation; it is also a "Safe Haven"..."Transparent and Decentralized." Ah, ok, Really.

And while that is nice I cannot help but to ask myself where are the retail investors? Big corporations and investment firms are coming to this market and buying bitcoin silently and not so silently as well, but other than them and the people that have been part of this market for a long time, I do not see retail investors as interested in bitcoin as they should, and this is a huge oversight from them, as if they invest in bitcoin once the bull run is in place it would not surprise me if they were unable to obtain any profits from that movement despite its magnitude.

Retail investors only contribute a little to price of Bitcoin but if we combined all the retail investors around the world, it really helps the price of Bitcoin. Honestly, the pump and dump that we see in the chart are probably caused by institution. Usually, we retails are only riding the trend and cannot dictate or manipulate the price. You might just didn't notice them because they are the smallest candlesticks in the chart but honestly they are looking at the chart and keep updated almost everyday. Some of them are good analyst where they can forecast the price which makes them a profitable retail investors.

It is true that Bitcoin has been performing great since it was introduced in the market, but I think saying Bitcoin is the choice of investors is an exaggeration.  There are still lots of investors who are hesitant to participate in the Bitcoin market.  If we look at it, I think only a small percentage of these investors are into Bitcoin while many are still into traditional investments.

Aside from that there are still problems and issues in the Bitcoin system that keep investors and companies away, especially in the financial sector.

This statement is an overstatement for bitcoin. If you compare the number of bitcoin investors today with many years ago, it is clear that there has been a huge change. But compared to other markets, the number of investors in bitcoin is only a small number compared to other markets. To put it bluntly, the majority of people investing in bitcoin are just retail investors with little capital and a desire to get rich quickly. As for large investors and institutions, there are still not too many people investing in bitcoin. They still stand outside the game and observe, they have not yet decided to invest in bitcoin. But once the ETF is approved, I believe that will change. Bitcoin is still not the top choice of all investors in the financial sector.

Comparing Bitcoin to traditional markets is like comparing the early 1990s internet to today. Bitcoin investors are few compared to traditional markets, but isnt that the point? It reflects new tech and innovation. Many retail investors want rapid riches, but isnt that true for all investments? The game of capitalism. All markets, including Bitcoin, are driven by the desire to make rich quick.

Natural caution applies to big players, institutions. They're not playing yet, but thats institutional behaviour. They observe, wait, calculate. They're settlers, not pioneers. After mapping the terrain, they move in. Getting a Bitcoin ETF approved would change everything. It signifies maturity and legitimacy.

So, saying Bitcoin isnt the top choice for investors in the financial sector right now is a snapshot of a moment in time. Its like saying businesses didnt like the internet in 1991. Bitcoin and blockchain are paradigm shifts. This is just the start. The canvas is blank, yet the potential is huge. Bitcoin's story is only beginning.

I'm not sure Ark Invest is a strong and reputable voice when it comes to financial management, simply because it's been going down by a lot for a while. It had $50 billion worth of assets under managements in 2021, but that went down to $16 billion in 2022, and the current estimate is less than $7 billion (all according to Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ark_Invest)). BlackRock is certainly one of the giants, and it does seem to have a strong interest in Bitcoin, but another giant, Goldman Sachs, seems more sceptical. So perhaps there is an increased interest in Bitcoin, but it's not 'the choice of investors'.

Bitcoin seems too hot and very popular in crypto which makes it become the first choice of investors while altcoins are just an additional option. If we are looking for a safe investment, nothing can beat Bitcoin.

Remembering 10 years ago while Bitcoin is not yet gaining popularity and hype, only a few see its potential while the majority are just ignoring this. But it has changed already after it hit a huge market pump making huge investors and social media influencer talks about it. It was the potentiality of the project and its use case brought such changes in the entire crypto market.

If we say investment in crypto then Bitcoin is the best cause we are all know that there are many successful investors shared thier testimony on how they make a good profit in Bitcoin and that's the reason why other small investors want to invest in Bitcoin too. Cause they will know that in the near future they can earn a lot of profits.  And Also Bitcoin is tye safest cryptocurrency interms of long-term.
But we must always remember we need to study first Before we enter in the world of investment.

If we only discuss the cryptocurrency market , it is clear that bitcoin will be the first and top choice of most investors because of the level of safety and significant profits it brings . But as I see , what OP is trying to say is that bitcoin is the choice of every investor in the world when compared to other investments . I think this is not entirely true because many people still reject bitcoin and have never invested in it . Currently , it can be said that bitcoin is still not the preferred choice of every investor.

Over the short period of time that bitcoin has come into existence, it has outperformed other assets due to her high volatile nature and decentralization. This has made bitcoin price to increase in value with timeline and investors has seen the potential of bitcoin, since it is used as a hedge of inflation over other assets. It is just that because the adoption of bitcoin is still very small, this is why I wouldn't say that it is a safe haven yet, until when the adoption has increased and bitcoin has been legalized by big countries. When Bitcoin ETF is approved by SEC next year January, it shows that someday bitcoin will be that safe haven for its investors, but as for now. let us keep increasing out bitcoin portfolio and hodli for long to enjoy the benefits of investing in bitcoin.

Gold cannot be confused with BTC, gold is a real asset that has existed for thousands of years and its supply is unlimited, reviewing the main purpose of creating BTC which is none other than to facilitate transactions and assets as future assets because the price continues to increase and even has beaten gold, there are still many advantages over bitcoin, making it the best investment choice at the moment.

Moreover, with the unstable world economic situation coupled with wars taking place in many countries, many people have moved their assets to bitcoin, which proves that bitcoin is more trusted than gold.

I think I agree with you but I believe time is just what is holding this to come to realization because Bitcoin is still at its early stages and some might agree that the grow of it only in this short is something to actually write home about because no one actually expected this massive acceptance from the onset and I believe after another ATH  is achieved the adoption will also continue to grow more and more people will invest in Bitcoin but I know the ratio or margin compared to other investor will be big but atleast we know we are getting somewhere.

As crypto enthusiasts, we may present a lot of reasons why Bitcoin investment would be the best choice for investors. First of all, it is a peer-to-peer, decentralised financial ecosystem where we can send money worldwide without third-party involvement. Bitcoin has been accepted by a lot of merchants recently, which means there is a real use case. The most important thing is financial freedom. We claim our own bank when we are holding Bitcoin in our own non-custodial wallets. There is a real concern as well, the young generation is moving fast to Bitcoin without knowing it perfectly just to become quick rich. A few investors think Bitcoin is a quick-rich scheme. We should know wisely why we should choose a Bitcoin investment.

Cathie is good to listen in her discussions. But nobody here mentions Saylor, his buying and advocating for Bitcoin for a few years now. I think he did more than Cathie for Bitcoin adoption among institutions.

the information you share is really interesting, yes that is true in the last few years, bitcoin continues to attract the attention of many people, if we go back to the Covid 19 pandemic then we see the price of bitcoin dropping drastically but in the end it goes back up again, well that is the basic nature of bitcoin However, Bitcoin's volatility cannot be eliminated. Bitcoin is chosen by many people because it cannot be manipulated and the amount is very limited, and it is very easy to buy and store it compared to gold, so Bitcoin is the best investment option in the world today.

Any person that chose to invest in Bitcoin must understand the level of financial risk that is attached. It is not good when we blindly invested in the crypto market and not understand some certain things we need to put in order for us to make good profits from the market. The market can be very risky if we don't know how to take appropriate risk that would minimize our level of loses in the market. We need to understand the right time to buy and time to sell so that we are not going to fall in between making decisions without any effective results.

Bitcoin had simply gained trust from the community making it their first choice over altcoins. For some reason, we can tell that the existence of Bitcoin is somewhat making cryptocurrency very known to us and this is represented by Bitcoin. In fact, I ask some people about crypto and they answer Bitcoin, meaning what is in their mind is all about Bitcoin. Well, that is somewhat a sort of impression but yes, Bitcoin deserved to be the choice of many knowing how safe and profitable is this project.

Once again, I personally will no longer compare Bitcoin and gold as investment options, because I think both are really that valuable for investment. They each have their own advantages which we can optimize and there is no need to be too fanatical about one of them. So, since both can give us good profits, why not both, right? However, sometimes someone only has limited money and feels they can only get one investment. However, this doesn't mean closing the possibility for the next one.

Its obvious. Less supply more value. Ill only invest my money to something that has value and Bitcoin is the real deal. Bitcoin can continue as it is a decentralized digital money. For someone like me ill would love to have total control of my digital money.


We will see what will happen in the future. The ETF made it look safe but on a certain thought certain institutions will find ways to make a ton of money with the BTC ETF. So make good use of your Bitcoin and store you keys well. Most of these guys are just wearing a different picture out pretending they come in with good tidings.

Bitcoin shouldn't really be compared to Gold. That's why sometimes I laugh at those who compare Bitcoin here in this forum when the two are very far from each other. Apart from the fact that Bitcoin and Gold are different in usage, decentralization is not the end of the conversation, and there is nothing more to discuss.

It's just that in times like this that we are facing right now, not all investors have Bitcoin as their best choice of investment. I will just example myself, because I can't buy at least 1 bitcoin or save a large amount of it. Of course, I will look for another cryptocurrency that has the potential to keep up with the rallies that Bitcoin took during the last halving. I then chose other crypto assets.

Bitcoin is better than gold if you read The bullish case for Bitcoin (https://vijayboyapati.medium.com/the-bullish-case-for-bitcoin-6ecc8bdecc1).

Gold does not have a finite supply and a supply vs time chart like this.

Bitcoin and Gold do not complement each other perfectly. Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency, whereas gold is a fiat commodity. Bitcoin is characterized as a decentralized, digital currency, where gold is a historical denominator and holds a permanent value within the currency. It is not easy to have opinions and discussions on controversial issues, as opinions on these two issues are growing. But above all, everyone is choosing Bitcoin. The value of Bitcoin is likely to change from time to time, and it necessarily has an important place in the controversial world. It can wait for any surprises or changes in the future, that's why most people are showing interest in investing in Bitcoin now and investing in Bitcoin.

Indeed, some people are in favor of Bitcoin to the extent that they're willing to buy and invest large sums in it on behalf of institutions. However, there are still institutions and individuals with different opinions. As a Bitcoin enthusiast, I'm more focused on news about Bitcoin adoption and acceptance, as it boosts my confidence. up to this point, Bitcoin investment can't be considered flawless since many governments and institutions still don't like Bitcoin.

For me, Bitcoin is still a good choice for investment... besides its significant potential in the future, it's easier to buy than gold. That's what makes me favor Bitcoin as a replacement for my savings, with the hope that my assets will grow in the future and get more profits.

A bitcoin can be choice of investment when you know exactly your plan's to towards bitcoin because for investment of Bitcoin it have advantages and disadvantages, when you have not understand bitcoin very well and you invest in bitcoin it will make you to think that bitcoin  is not good to invest on, so bitcoin is investment that you have to know and understand it risks before you invest for it, its everyone's choice when you have know bitcoin but when you have not know the basics things of bitcoin don't make it your choice because you can have ninety five percentage chance of losing your coins as you don't know anything about it, first Learn bitcoin before you make it your choice

BTC is the choice of some investors to be more specific op which is something you should have explicitly stated yourself. Anyway, this isn't anything new or anything thanks to its surging popularity over the years.

Low TX times and fees most of the time using SegWit made it even more appealing to them.

Right, diversification is a key strategy in investment. While Bitcoin and gold have distinct qualities, having a balanced portfolio with both can help mitigate risks and potentially enhance returns. It's important to align your investment choices with your financial goals and risk tolerance. It is easier said than done especially if you dont have the money that’s why let us not lose hope. We’ll all get there!

Of course, Bitcoin is a choice for investors, especially investors who have known Bitcoin for a long time. But for people who don't know Bitcoin, even though they are investors, they won't say that. Many of these investors still doubt Bitcoin. They don't think they can make big profits from Bitcoin.

They still choose to invest in gold, as they have known for a long time. They are unwilling to accept new things that might be more promising to provide benefits for them. Moreover, they often hear that Bitcoin is only used for illegal things.

Let them be like that because we will not be able to change their stance. If they still choose gold as their investment, that is their choice. But for us, Bitcoin is an option to invest and we are already strong Bitcoin investors.

I think there is no one who doesn't see the profits that bitcoin is making, it's not that they don't believe that bitcoin can't bring them big profits. Simply because many traditional investors do not like the high volatility of bitcoin, they prefer the stability and safety of traditional assets. Especially investors with large amounts of capital, they have no reason to risk investing in bitcoin while investments such as gold or real estate are also generating significant profits for them from their capital.

I have some friends who are real estate investors, they don't like bitcoin because they think the market is full of manipulation and the game is too unpredictable so they would rather accept small profits but still be safe with real estate. I find that normal because each person has different thoughts and preferences.

It will be much better if you also include the interest percentage as a reference and it will be much more interesting for us to discuss. Gold has experienced its heyday as the choice of many people for hedging and is still a hedge today for some people who hold it. The revolution in bitcoin has started since its introduction and now almost many people have seen how the power of bitcoin can beat the value of investing in gold for maximum and fast profits. Even though we don't ignore the risks and price fluctuations that occur in the market, it is because of this that Bitcoin has the power to be one of the best investments today.

I've seen how gold and bitcoin compare and given the choice I would of course take both if possible. What is the basis for someone investing is nothing more than talking about profits and we also have to look at the extent of potential profits that can be obtained in the shortest possible time compared to other existing investments. In this way, we will draw every conclusion based on a thorough study regarding how to approach the decision and also talk about the advantages.

The use of gold has been around for a very long time, but Bitcoin is very new, and gold is recognized as a historical entity. Both gold and bitcoin have specialized markets. Additionally, owning gold and bitcoin is a significant asset because they both provide individual worth and perform well in the marketplace. In terms of feature potential, Bitcoin has it all because its price occasionally rises above expectations and could soon reach $100,000. most have gotten their analysis from the previous event in Bitcoin, even if it is not up to it will be close.

  The freedom Bitcoin brings is one of its many benefits its brings to the market, Bitcoin being the most owned asset of the year, most investors are moving towards cryptocurrency, it’s is said to be the most influential asset in the market right now. Bitcoin has become increasingly popular amongst today’s investors. During that same time, there’s been a lot of debate about Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.
   Most recently, Bitcoin’s valuation has increased more than 763% in just one year, easily outpacing traditional gains in the stock market,There’s no doubt about it: momentum in Bitcoin is certainly building. When you purchase a coin, it’s stored in a “wallet,” which is where all your cryptocurrency is stored Use your coins to make online transactions Hold your coins for a long period in the hopes it’ll appreciate in value.

Well, I don't know about other persons, but for me bitcoin has always been the way to go in terms of investment, I've have known about gold several years before i came across bitcoin, and ever since I got involved in bitcoin, I have never cared to know what is happening in the market anymore.

Bitcoin has outperformed bitcoin in several areas not just in hedging, bitcoin have outperformed gold in terms of growth, this is specially visible if we try to consider how old gold is, and compare its age to its current price. And then on the other hand, compare the age of bitcoin to the age of gold, and then compare the prices of both, we did realize that bitcoin has had a tremendous growth in the last few years, in a short period of its launch.

The future is ultimately bright for bitcoin, the ETF being approved will open even more doors for bitcoin to grow.

Cathie Wood is a smart women and that's why she chose Bitcoin over gold because the potential of growth with Bitcoin is way higher than gold. She said the truth and I agree with that and yes young people love to invest in Bitcoin and hold their investment for long term and in fact if we check the history of Bitcoin then it's confirmed that Bitcoin is far better than gold as an asset.

Bitcoin should not be called as a "Safe Haven" because its value can grow and fall over time. Bitcoin is still very volatile and its value can grow as well as drop to huge percentages. Although, it's still once of the safest investments that promises potential profits to investors who are going to hold it for long term, but still currently it should not be termed as a "Safe Haven" I guess.

When it comes to transparency and decentralization then its somewhat true that Bitcoin has both of those, but unfortunately most people still purchase Bitcoin directly from centralized exchanges and they really don't care about the decentralization feature of it at all. I hope that one day thing will change and people will invest in Bitcoin in decentralized way rather than the traditional centralized way.

Some will choose it some will not. You can't force it onto people. It's their personal choice. But the thing is, those who rejects the idea of Bitcoin are those who doesn't know much about it. Instead of spreading the idea of big people are choosing it you should too, we should spread the knowledge about Bitcoin itself. That way after knowing everything, it will be people's personal choice whether they want to invest in it or not.

I mean, compare Bitcoin with gold? Bitcoin has outperformed gold no doubt about that but it's about faith. Not everyone have faith on Bitcoin yet. On the other hand, people will instantly choose gold if given chance. Only those who know about Bitcoin well will choose Bitcoin over gold.

Yes, of course, Bitcoin is a good thing for investment, but everyone has their own choice according to their own thinking. Some prefer gold, some prefer bitcoin, but both are good investments, so the value of both rises. But, sir, based on what you described about Bitcoin in the context of the choice of investors, I think all those qualities are found in gold, apart from Bitcoin. So there is no right explanation.
 
So keep on explaining that Bitcoin is the best choice for investment because, if you look at it, the most authentic quality of Bitcoin is that it is an investment asset that does not exist and is decentralized, due to which Bitcoin Against the existence of gold, you have to make proper arrangements for it, and you can't even take it to any place; it requires a lot of security, and moreover, you don't have access to trade it everywhere. can do On the other hand, due to the fact that Bitcoin does not exist and is decentralized, you do not need as much security for it as for gold. Just put it in a small hardware wallet, and you can store it anywhere and easily assess trades from anywhere.

If you take a closer look at assets appreciation over the years, you'll note that no asset has ever beat the pace at which bitcoin has flipped its ROI in the short time of its existence.

Real estate is good but it cannot give you such ROI even in the next decade and profiling asset class over the years, it has remained unbeatable.

Gold is not the hedging asset of choice anymore. In the past many generations looked at gold as the number one asset to protect their money and to save them in a time of crisis. Looking at the last two years we see that the gold price barely moved at all. The Russia Ukraine war, energy crisis and food price spike had almost no effect on gold at all. Taking into consideration the high inflation rate in the last two years gold investors even lost value. It should be clear that Bitcoin is a much better investment of we want to protect our wealth and even profit from future price rises.

This is not an indicator of confidence in bitcoin, but an indicator of people’s lack of choice in the current situation. When a bank restricts the movement of funds for people, they have to take any possible means of solving this problem, even the only risky ones. The increased demand for this reason has already passed; now another increased demand has begun, associated with the hype of accepting the Bitcoin ETF. And yes, if you look at the price tag, you can feel the impact of demand.


Bitcoin should probably not be called a "safe haven", but rather a haven with ebbs and flows, in which there are periodic storms. But "inflation hedge" is quite possible, but only over long distances. In short periods, due to price drops, this may not work (when rolling down a hill).

Do you have any evidence that gold is no longer a risk-hedging asset or the choice of investors? I still remember the war between Ukraine and Russia or the war between Israel and Palestine both caused gold prices to increase. And looking at the gold chart, although it is not increasing too fast, it is still increasing very steadily, this is not necessarily because gold is increasing but because fiat is losing value. If gold is no longer the choice of investors, why hasn't bitcoin surpassed gold in market capitalization? Bitcoin is only worth $500 billion, while gold is worth more than $12 trillion. Why do governments and billionaires still choose gold and not bitcoin?

We don't need to defame or smear gold to flatter bitcoin.

One of the main reasons investors choose Bitcoin over other investment options is its potential for high returns. Bitcoin has experienced dramatic price increases since its inception, and it has the potential to continue to grow in value. For example, in 2017, the price of Bitcoin increased by over 1,500%, and even with the recent downturn in the market, the price is still significantly higher than it was just a few years ago. While there is no guarantee of future returns, Bitcoin's track record makes it an attractive option for investors who are willing to take on some risk.


As Bitcoin has gained popularity and recognition, it has become the choice of many investors looking to diversify their portfolios. Bitcoin is often seen as a store of value, similar to gold or other precious metals, due to its scarcity and the fact that it is not controlled by any central authority. In addition, Bitcoin has a number of advantages over traditional investments, such as its global reach, low transaction fees, and the ability to be stored and transferred securely. These factors, along with the potential for significant returns, have made Bitcoin an attractive option for many investors...

Of course many people knew this, and that's why a lot of people are now clamoring for Bitcoin investment. In the past, a lot of people were very skeptical about Bitcoin, but we now have more and more people coming into Bitcoin every day, and the fact is that Bitcoin is not like gold, which people must actually know that you have x tons of gold to your name or investment. Bitcoin is quiet, and one can hold it during bear season, and during bull season, you can sell to take profit and rebuy again when the bear market comes again. Bitcoin has a circle that it's always fulfilling, and it always fulfills it, and whoever holds tight to their asset will definitely make a profit.

You have spoken really well and I completely agree with you, Personally, i have never seen or come across an investment that is as profitable as investing in bitcoin, i mean literally, an asset that is possible of bring in more than 10% of profit in just one day.

I have in previous times bought shares from some companies, also tried buying gold one time but could due to the process involved, this is before i discovered bitcoin, i also traded the forex market for a while before i came into crypto, and sincerely, i can testify that bitcoin and crypto in general is the best place to be, life have completely changed, buying and holding bitcoin is the best thing that has ever happened to me, and i believe this is also same for many other bitcoin investors out there.

Bitcoin will surely change how people see and invest in assets.

We will see in the future, but the screenshots with bitcoin among the most valued assets are getting trendy again

Bitcoin is considered to be the best in the current economic market.  Because inflation is high, people are paying more attention to Bitcoin because the benefits are more. Especially young people are attracted to this addition of Bitcoin, while the current bank failure rate is high due to the high interest rate of fiat money and especially the current price of Bitcoin is higher than gold.

Bitcoin is becoming a digital safe haven like gold was centuries ago. Its limited supply reflects gold's scarcity, enhancing value. Dont forget decentralization - no central authority. Thats appealing in a time when established institutions are losing trust. Cross-border transactions can be expensive and complicated, but Bitcoin makes them easy. Its security is also formidable. Digital wallets and cryptographic keys are like pocket banks. Bitcoin investing is more than just seeking quick gains. Joining a financial revolution. The get-rich-quick promise is appealing, but the wider picture - a new way of thinking about and using money - is more thrilling. Bitcoin is a statement about finance's future, not just an investment.

There is no doubt in that the bitcoin is best for investment as today bitcoin is at it’s lowest price and in future it will go to 50-60K usdt but there is a high risk associated with bitcoin while in case of gold the price is more stable so investor always prefer a stable thing to invest.

  Bitcoin is the most secure. All others have not been proven and they are vulnerable. Cryptography of bitcoin has never been broken. There the law is a law, it can not be bypassed. There is no boss, unlike the others. The really smart people recommend bitcoin because it is the future of money and it is limited + it is decentralized and the more secure system ever that we had. This is why you see more and more people going to exchanges like Binance, Primexbt, Kraken etc… to get involved in the crypto industry. This is the future and no one can deny it anymore.
  It’s not too late to invest. Though cryptocurrencies are getting more volatile. Means you should only invest with companies with professional traders and a guaranteed level of return. Anybody who has bought Bitcoin since it was past has realized that they have realized a gain if they held on to the asset. If that pattern continues, Bitcoin could reach as high as $500,000. However, the market got far ahead of itself in 2021, breaking above the $60,000 level. A return on Investment of 100 million% over the last decade suggests that investing in Bitcoin is almost always a good idea. Timing when you will buy or sell is the tricky part of maximizing returns and profiting from the market and its high volatility.

The needs of every investor are different, there are some investors that do not have as their priority to produce more wealth and what they want more than anything is to just preserve it, and gold can be a good way to do this as gold over the long term can track inflation and beat it, however for those that are still looking to increase their wealth then there is no doubt that an asset like bitcoin is a very attractive choice, since it can produce profits in a short amount of time you could not produce with gold.

We cannot equate investing in Bitcoin with investing in gold, there really is a significant difference and for those who invest in Bitcoin of course they clearly know the big risks they will face (different from the risks of investing in gold) so the main goal is to make a profit large because all investments have a level of equality between risk and possible profit, so investing in Bitcoin has the possibility of profit being quite large as well as the risk.

The reason for making Bitcoin an option is actually very reasonable, the profit percentage is not obtained in other investments and therefore there is no investor who does not expect profits, if they only want to invest safely of course they will not choose Bitcoin.

Agree with you. BTC and gold are different and difficult to compare, but having both will be profitable in the long run. Of course, both of these investments have their own advantages and disadvantages, gold has been proven for centuries as a protective asset and is still the best investment and bitcoin comes with better technology to protect assets from all global economic uncertainty so having both can be profitable for the future. .

It's just that Bitcoin is now more modern because the technology makes it easier for us to invest without having to be afraid of traveling far. For example, when we travel abroad or there is a war, we only carry the private wallet key, this is very different from gold which, if we move around, will be burdensome to carry. Moreover, the supply of BTC is limited while gold is unlimited. The point is that both of these investments have good prospects so it depends on which one we choose, if we have both of these investments it will be better.

Well bitcoin is still on it tender stage so many investors are still looking at it from afar and when bitcoin will live for like 20+ years and the value appreciating every year then you will see investors will trip in to invest and at that time the price of bitcoin will skyrocket to another level of All Time High. In the whole world the number of people that are sceptical about bitcoin are still many so with time the population will increase more than like this.

Not everyone in the world have access to gold and many only have heard the name  and have not used it.

People who like to compare bitcoin with gold do so because they want to prove that bitcoin is the best in this world, they want to prove that they are right in choosing the right asset to invest.

Indeed, I think we do not need to compare and declare which one is better than the other because each person's needs are different. For those who like safety, even if bitcoin brings millions of percent profits, it will not change their decision to choose gold. As for those who like to take risks to gain high profits, even if forced, they will never choose gold. Each person will have their own way of evaluating and comparing to make the most suitable choice. Comparing the two and making a public statement only caused more controversy.

Sometimes I'm also confused, there are still many people comparing BTC and gold. Being in both, I realized that both communities have very similar narratives, there is no reason there should be this narrative or any other narrative that exists in these two communities because both are owned by the people and they will choose it themselves according to their wishes.

For those who choose gold, maybe they don't fully understand BTC, which makes them doubtful about BTC assets, maybe if they have studied BTC more deeply they will move everything to BTC. Both are people's money today to save from world inflation, BTC and Gold holders must act as brothers, not enemies.

Bitcoin's got this magnetic pull for investors because of the potential profits.  I mean, let's get real here, who doesn't want their investments to blow up? Its like winning the lottery in finance world.  Normal investments usually don't give you that rush of potentially striking it big.
At the same time, gold has been the tried-and-true way to store value for ages, celebrated for being stable and insulating against inflation.  Some folks view Bitcoin as digital gold a newfangled alternative that could give comparable protection.

You have to do a little analysis to see why all the investors in the world are so intelligent, because the Majority are pretty good at Choosing some type of investment that can make their investment go the furthest, but there are others who don't even Know They come to o well, and this means that investors can take this to another level , only the smartest are the ones who can put this to the Maximum, they know that new investments can Succeed , but the most Reliable are those that are through Bitcoin, There is no doubt, you have to see it for what it is and not doubt it, there are many good investors who do not trust bitcoin , it is Incredible.

Well, they are not wrong to be fair. I mean gold has been "the best asset to hold" for people who do not want to keep their money in fiat stuff for centuries, and so far we can easily say that it has worked very well and done greatly. I get that it is not going to end up being all that weird, we need to arrange something that will do so differently and quite frankly we are talking about a situation that is very wonderful in the end.

I get that it is not easy, and I get that gold is strong and been here for thousands of years as a way of currency and investment, so not a lot of people will understand why bitcoin is the best, or at least better but eventually everyone will get there. We need to make sure that we can savior the moment when we know that it is the best and they still do not know that it is the best. That will not take too long, with a few more bull runs, the whole world will start to invest into bitcoin and we will not be so special anymore.

In the context of this conversation, I do not agree that Bitcoin is a safe heaven. Bitcoin’s volatility is how we can confirm this. In the exact words of Investopedia (https://www.investopedia.com/terms/s/safe-haven.asp#:~:text=our%20editorial%20policies-,What%20Is%20a%20Safe%20Haven%3F,the%20event%20of%20market%20downturns.); “A safe haven is a type of investment that is expected to retain or increase in value during times of market turbulence. Investors seek out safe havens in order to limit their exposure to losses in the event of market downturns.”

But this can’t be Bitcoin, because, not only can it retain or increase in value, it can equally decrease too. Hence, you cannot just say that it is a safe heaven. Imaging the bear run we’re trying to recover from.

After all, both are just assets, investments that bring us profits so whether we are gold investors or bitcoin investors, it really doesn't matter. The most important is the profit we will make, whoever makes more profit is right. There is no guarantee that bitcoin investors like us will make more profits than gold investors if we invest without a strategy, without a perfect plan. So the fact that we compare and talk bad about each other really doesn't bring good results to anyone. It's all just tools, let's make use of what we feel is best.

Well, it's not just the investor, but the most intelligent investors, apparently some don't understand that elbicoin is the best investment of all, they can't realize that fiat money is a big bubble, that's not the bubble. the bitcoin, many go to fiat money as the best option because they feel the support, and there is no support, the real dollar is not backed by gold bars as they make everyone believe, no, fiat money like the The dollar is alone, the more bills continue to be printed, the more debt and the more inflation, that's where bitcoin laughs, and how it is doing.

Bitcoin investment is a coin one have to invest towards with a rest of mind in the cryptocurrency market, which many people choice Bitcoin as first option, before adding other alt-coins as alternative way of investment.

For the many yes but there are some who thinks BTC is not going to grow huge anymore. This is why they choose new cryptos instead. If they are an investor who mostly invest in traditional assets yes, they can only consider BTC as an addition but for someone who originated in crypto. BTC is their primary investment. If they want to diversify, this is where they can grab some altcoins and tokens.

I agree to some of the advantages that you mentioned there but not to the transaction fee. Aren't you aware of the complaints lately of the people about the high transaction fee in BTC? Even if the situation normalizes, I still won't say that BTC has a cheap transaction fee. I think this is the reason why we have alternative coins to fix some of the flaws and lack of Bitcoin.

there are many reasons why many investors invest in bitcoin, the main reason is definitely the profit provided by bitcoin itself,
and this has also spread among young people who are aware of technology and digitalization.
But here we also have to be prepared for the risks presented by Bitcoin itself
Even though Bitcoin is the best investment, it cannot be denied that there are still many fans of fissile gold

Bitcoin's high transaction fees are annoying. What's interesting, though, is that it goes beyond fees. Trust, security, and history matter. Bitcoin, the crypto pioneer, has a track record despite its problems! Altcoins' lower costs and faster transfers are intriguing. Can they equal Bitcoin's durability and popularity? Not yet. Consider that Bitcoin's annoyingly high fees reflect its value and demand. Like a packed restaurant, customers complain about the wait yet wait because the food is good. Bitcoin is the crypto world's trusted restaurant. Altcoins? They're like new restaurants - exciting but untested. Diversifying into altcoins is smart, but ignoring Bitcoin's long-term value is stupid. Bitcoin delivers stability, trust, and more than fees.

Bitcoin and altcoins are not comparable - although some altcoins also have real use cases. Bitcoin is the best for its security and decentralization - but crypto users are never prohibited from using altcoins to get lower transaction fees as long as bitcoin transaction fees are expensive.

The current increase in transaction fees is not due to just high demand for bitcoin - but ordinal transactions have actually affected the mempool causing many confirmation delays, mempool becoming congested.

Of course, this does not necessarily hinder the use cases of bitcoin and situation like this will also encourage more adoption of the use of the lightning network for transaction. It might make sense not to pay for something with bitcoin as long as the transaction fees are very expensive - but currently the recommended transaction fees are already quite low compared to a day or two ago.

Everyone certainly has their preferred way of investing, in the current era of technological development, choosing to invest in Bitcoin is indeed the right choice to make a profit, but investing in Bitcoin certainly carries the risk of losses that we will experience if we don't have the knowledge. about the investments we make, so it is important for us before starting to invest to learn first about the knowledge about how to make a profit and also how to avoid the risk of loss that we will incur and must be able to resolve the risks we face.

 Bitcoin as we know is often considered a relatively more stable and established choice compared to many altcoins. It has been around the longest, has a larger market capitalization, and is widely recognized as a store of value. Many investors see Bitcoin as a foundational asset in their portfolios, especially for its potential to serve as a hedge against inflation. Whatever the case maybe the decision lies solely with the investor as we know individual preference differs, risk tolerance and investment goals.

Yes, it had dropped for a while but I am still uncertain that the fees will increase again. But this is just a week that we're experiencing it and I think that we're about to see the lowest again soon.

It is the right choice for those that know it. We can say that it can make someone financially free in the future but it all depends on how much capital that he's got.
Before $100 can make you rich if you came in during the earliest time of Bitcoin and then just sold it after the times it had reached its peak. But this time, you calculate and double it and that's what you'll get as your profit if the price doubles as well.

Depends on what kind of choice we're talking about. If we are talking about long-term investments, then of course bitcoin has a preference. And if we are talking about possible quick and good earnings, then altcoins win here. The main thing in investing in altcoins is to sell them in time.

actually financial literacy is not that difficult, what we have to understand is that the value of a fiat today will not be the same as the value of a fiat in the next 10 years, while the value of bitcoin against the dollar will continue to rise in the next 10 years

Bitcoin is an investment choice for wise investors. Bitcoin doesn't have real physical value, but everyone in the world can have it, even investors who only have small capital, unlike property, shares or gold

don't ever think that bitcoin will die in the future, remember, bitcoin has become a part of humanity today and will never disappear from this earth

Indeed, if we talk about profits, altcoins clearly dominate bitcoin and it is not a bad choice, but it is confusing that so many people hate it and even hate those who invest in altcoins. Each person's goal when entering this market is different, so there will be different choices, just because others don't make the same choices as us, we discriminate and criticize them. Is what we are doing right?

Why don't we invest mainly in bitcoin and only spend a small part in altcoins to find our own luck? Many people have changed their lives thanks to altcoins, not just bitcoin. Just as many people became rich by investing in gold and stocks, but many bitcoin investors believe that such investments are useless.

Ark Invest has now submitted its third amendment to the Bitcoin ETF filing. The deadline to file them is in January and Bloomberg experts think there is a 90% chance of a spot Bitcoin ETF approval.

https://ark-invest.com/

https://www.binance.com/en/feed/post/310058192281

2023 was not the best year for altcoins and Bitcoin showed that it is a much better investment. Some altcoins were also able to grow well, but Bitcoin did not outperform so many altcoins to be able to generalize their results.

I think that as long as Bitcoin moves towards the new ATH, the situation will not change much, the result of Bitcoin will still be better than that most of altcoins, and only after that altcoins will catch up. You can use this if you can, Bitcoin always rises first.

And it can be an option as well to take them both -Bitcoin and Gold. While Bitcoin is heated up, smart investors have taken advantage of the situation, so instead of putting more funds into Gold, they are staking more on Bitcoin. Perhaps, it was a prevailing opportunity that most people wanted as acquiring Bitcoin could possibly make them rich. While many individuals are showing huge profits experience from investing in Bitcoin, the more it drives people to try.

As much as I want to think positively and believe on the experts speculation and estimation about what is percentage rate of the approval.
I do not want to be wholly dependent on my feelings on them.
I want it to get approved and if it does, might be before or close to the halving date.

Transaction fees will never be stable over time and will continue to fluctuate depending on how many transactions fill the mempool. I'm not at all surprised that transaction fees will become more expensive in the future - but there are positive indications that there may be a correlation between transaction fees and price increases.

Moreover - check the transaction fees before you broadcast so as not to be delayed by low fees: https://mempool.space/
So far it's hard to expect transaction fees to drop to 1 sat/byte - I can imagine that won't happen until later this year. But again - expensive transaction fees will not completely hinder the real use case of bitcoin.

Both are actually good investments to avoid inflation, so even if you are rich or not, having an alternate investment is a huge advantage. It's still good to invest in gold cause it also increases its value in the long term plus the supply and demand, and we know that gold has a short supply. But we know that Bitcoin's features, especially in the current market that is increasing value, take people's interest and attention. Knowing Bitcoin's potential, especially in a long-term investment wouldn't be so bad to start even if it is in the process of reaching ATH, there's a DCA method that could help you to accumulate if it's too big to invest in huge amounts. But for sure if you started at a bear market, you would already profit, and if you hold for that long and Bitcoin reached a new ATH, for sure you would already be rich.

That's right, the positive indication that it will be is because the price of Bitcoin is higher so, we're looking at the dollar value of the sats/vB instead of the quantity that's being provided for us to pay.

Everyone wishes to see it drop to 1 sat/vB but we don't know until that moment comes again because it's just so hard to expect that because of the ordinals.

we have been in this situation before, high fees and slow confirmation. but i think, it will still go down. maybe not 1sat/vB but a lot lower than what we have right now. this is the bottleneck when it comes to payment method. i won't use my btc if i need to pay hefty amount just for the tx fees.
for now, if you have no urgent needs of your cash, better keep your btc in your wallet. it is just another hiccup that we need to overcome.
also, you can convert your btc to other cheaper alts if you need to transfer it to your wallet or other platforms. you can easily calculate the difference of fees incurred.

I am not also inclined with that when the transactions aren't that much but the fees are a lot.
I wouldn't sacrifice it when I feel that I'll lose a lot from that transaction. I'm still for Bitcoin as an asset and store of value but when it's come to these transfers, if I'll lose a lot from the fees then I won't do the tx. If they're just like a couple of bucks and pennies, no problem. But when it goes tremendously and becomes more than $10. that's so much.

If you regularly follow the altcoin market, you wouldn't say that 2023 is a bad year for altcoins. Let's take a project I invested in, Fetch.Ai. I bought it at 0.24 in August and just now I sold it when it hit $0.56. I got a very small profit from it, but for those who invested in it from 2019 till now, they have made huge profits. It's just one of many altcoins that are giving good returns in the market, why say 2023 is a bad year for altcoins?

As I also said, focus mainly on bitcoin but don't miss the opportunity with altcoins. While you are focusing 100% of your time and money on bitcoin, many of us are optimizing profits through altcoins, Fet, Rndr, Fil...many altcoins had x2 in October. Why miss these opportunities to increase your capital and when bitcoin falls below $36k is a good time to accumulate?

Bitcoin and gold do have very good price stability, because that has been proven. However, if you look at price growth, bitcoin is indeed faster than gold. Because in just 1-2 years, Bitcoin has experienced a very significant price increase. But don't forget, bitcoin's decline is always very drastic. For example, what always happens after halvings and bullruns. Bitcoin usually always experiences very drastic price drops.

However, if we talk about the stability of gold prices, the price increase is always not too high. However, even so, the price drops that occur are usually not large. Therefore, gold and bitcoin do have advantages and disadvantages in the area of market value stability.

But what's truly unique about bitcoin and what gold isn't is its decentralized nature. Now with this important point, Bitcoin has indeed become popular among investors.

It depends, small investors with little capital will choose bitcoin to increase their assets, but those who are already rich need safety more than continuing to take risks. That is why we can see billionaires and large investors not wanting to take risks to invest in bitcoin. Every investor's needs are different, but in our situation, bitcoin was clearly the better choice so it's no surprise that everyone chose bitcoin. But if we became rich and bitcoin remained as volatile as it is today, would we still prioritize bitcoin in our portfolio? I really doubt that.

Bitcoin is an investor's best choice.  Because an investor can earn a lot of money by investing in Bitcoin. Investing in Bitcoin is better than investing in other places, because Bitcoin is much safer than other places and it gives more profit. A real investor will never invest in anything other than Bitcoin.
Really, Bitcoin in the best Choice of Investor

I don't think it's right. Everyone has the right to invest wherever they want and if they make a mistake, it is only their mistake. I think that people who criticize altcoin investments have failed altcoin investments in the past and therefore they start criticizing others based on their failures.


I agree, altcoins have made a lot of people rich. But, at the same time, altcoins have also made a lot of people bankrupt. And it is not the altcoins' fault, but the investors themselves. Because altcoins are a much more dangerous investment. Altcoins need to be used skillfully in terms of making profit, and not everyone can do it, IMHO.

Bitcoin is still the top priority of business community on net  today. Because this is Father coin. All other coins move on the fluctuations of this coin. Although ETH is also doing good business and people have good trust in it too. But BTC is something else.A father is a father. These coins are born from Bitcoin. That is, these are his subordinates .
People who used to work in the stock market or people who used to trade currency and gold. Seeing the value of Bitcoin, these people are also attracted towards Bitcoin .

Most likely as of this time I would say it is a yes. As we are inching closer to the Bitcoin halving and the continued speculations of Blackrock and Grayscale Bitcoin ETF, this is where the investors are likely going to choose this asset than the others.

If you can see the growth of Bitcoin these days, it’s really insane. As of this time, it’s around $43k+ and it briefly touched $44.1k+ yesterday.

I’m just glad that I did not sell my BTCs and store them safely in my cold wallet. I’ve done some DCA with my extra “not beer” money when the price was around $19k to $23kish. Even if I am already at a profit, I am in no rush of selling them as I’m in good hands by having some stable clients and just keep spending within my own means (in terms of monthly expenses). 

The right choice is to hold BTC for the long term, especially since you can be said to have good finances, so selling BTC in a hurry is not an option, but for you it is a mistake, I think.
Sometimes the temptation to sell is very big if the market experiences a significant increase like recently, investors' hands will always be strong to resist the temptation to reach the specified target.

Of course, bitcoin is a favorite choice for investors, especially when the world economy is experiencing a crisis like this. Bitcoin will be the best choice for investors when the world is as uncertain as it is today.

I also read an article that said that the big boss Black Rock Bitcoin is currently beating gold, stocks and even Fiat. And the hot news is that Spot Bitcoin ETF will be approved soon, this could be a game changer. If you look at the history of Bitcoin, it can also be seen that the price of Bitcoin always increases from year to year and this has been proven to date. So investing in Bitcoin is the best decision, then start your smart investment with Bitcoin.

It is normal to have a market congested of course if there's some pairs of coins releases, news related to bitcoin people don't want to ride with this so they make a lot of transactions and of course that's the time gets a traffic, fees are just prioritization if you want to get your funds immediately of course you need to deal with a good amount but if not and you make a transaction you can less the fee and get confirmed once the market goes well now, still if you have the transaction ID you don't need to worry on this, if you are using an exchange few them offering a prioritization else you are using a hot or cold wallet its your choice with the fees amount.

The only thing that's good with stocks is that it's as stable as it can be, the likeliness that your investment will be stolen by a greedy CEO and go off to Bahamas with all the money is so low unlike with bitcoin that's got no person behind it for when it comes to people that have created it so the looming doubt that when everyone invests in bitcoin that they're money will get stolen by someone unknown but that bad performance is a normal thing for a stock, it has happened in the past before so it's not really that scary or something like that. Bitcoin is my choice of hedge though, there's no way to deny that bitcoin is growing and still have the same perspective about it as something that will go down eventually and with the current price of bitcoin and it's potential for growth, this is still a good time to invest as much as we can, there's no way that anyone who missed out on bitcoin when it's still $10 apiece would let this opportunity to invest right to pass up on it again.

If you want to invest in crypto currency then definitely put no bitcoin in your holding because bitcoin is the best coin of crypto currency and even the safest investment if you can keep holding for long time because one time you will see the price of bitcoin go high maybe you will regret.  Maybe that's why you're not holding bitcoin.

For me it is really is the best choice of investment because I am a crypto enthusiast but for others they prefer centralized physical assets but with the help of the approval of Bitcoin ETF I know one day it means massive adoption as it lure hesitant/doubtful investors to venture out into it since decentralized assets have never looked more attractive than they do now.

Now that there's Bitcoin Spot ETF, those that have eyeing for the Gold ETF then have another choice if they want to dive in with Bitcoin Spot ETF.

While there are various choices for most investors on every market. Obviously here, we're for Bitcoin and we like holding that because it is what we're used to hold and take on its highly volatile market.

Put no Bitcoin? I think that you've mistyped that mate.  ;D

But definitely, Bitcoin is the best crypto of all.

Exactly, the reflect of earnings is noticeable in the long term. Many investors in bitcoin will be tempted by the slightest movement of bitcoin, as the movement of bitcoin gives a high reward, and we notice that mostly those early investors in the market are those who are new investors and don't think long-term earnings. Its normal that there is a regret for those who sell their bitcoin early from the bull run of bitcoin, and we all have those experiences where we regret selling our assets earlier than we should. But profit is profit, no matter how small it is. We should be content, but of course, don't sell all your holdings; allocate some for future bull runs or potentially good events in Bitcoin. But yeah, this is what is on the market; no matter what we do, it is our own doing; we just need to accept what is done.

There is a wrong typing in your post you said don't keep any bitcoins in investment maybe you meant that or say keep bitcoins. We all know that Bitcoin is the most popular coin in the cryptocurrency market.

Bitcoin is the first choice for most investors just as Bitcoin is my first choice for investing. There are many investors who have changed their lives tremendously by investing in Bitcoin. Now that there are bitcoin spot ETFs and the price of bitcoin is almost too low, if you want to invest, you can use this opportunity.  :D

Definitely it’s the best choice. We have seen many have gone completely bankrupt by investing here and there with high volatile coins. So in these type of situations a trader wants to invest in coin with some stability. Bitcoins might not give big profits in little amount of time, but it won’t crash also soon. Moreover, if one holds Bitcoins for many years, then definitely no one can stop him from making tons of profits.

There are many people who are interested in Bitcoin investment. But they don't know the right rules and if the market condition deteriorates within a few days of investing, they get too worried and immediately sell the invested Bitcoins at a loss. Bitcoin Investment  After doing we have to wait a long time to get profit if we can't wait long time then we will never get profit because bitcoin has potential to make profit if we hold it for long time.

When they are affected by market conditions after they invest in Bitcoin, of course they do not understand correctly about the investment they are making, because if they correctly understand the investment they are making, of course they will not worry about declining market conditions after they invest, even They will take advantage of this opportunity if they still have sufficient capital to increase the investment they have made and hold it for the period of time they have targeted before they invest.

If we cannot withstand the investment we make for a long period of time, of course we have to prepare ourselves and also the capital to invest, because if we only use the capital we have to invest and do not have funds for other needs, of course this is also not good for us. do it because we have to sell it before getting a profit from the investment we made.

Exactly bitcoin is the best investment in my opinion, because some people don't know about it and will say it isn't a good investment for them, preferring real estate. Bitcoin is a good investment for me because he makes people rich when you are patient and gradually understand everything, bitcoin has changed many people's lives who started bitcoin for a long time, it's just something you should understand the strategic to avoid losing. Everyone knows bitcoin is volatile, and anytime the coin decreases he will undoubtedly rise again, and you will be profitable. many others who engage in real estate profit from it as well, and they will not want to take another risk so they try to minimize the risk they don't want to lose, Even in real estate there are times when you will undoubtedly lose money, so anything about investing is all about risk and anyone will choose to take the one that can assist him out, which is why investing is a choice for everyone, you cannot force someone to do what you do.

not only the best but also profitable in its way and with the study and the nature of bitcoin you won't get profit when you need it. it takes patience and much more to enjoy investing in Bitcoin. and if you take note people who say bad things about people who have fallen victim to one scam or ponzi online are the ones saying all sorts of things about Bitcoin if not for those who have invested know what they have gotten from investing in Bitcoin and I don't think any investor will want to leave investing in bitcoin but it will always be difficult to convince people sometimes about it.

and another truth is that investing in Bitcoin does not make you rich. because you might face challenges as far it is crypto but being positive and having faith in your investment is enough for you to make profits especially while you trading but at the same time you might also lose money, because of that volatile nature so we have to be mindful of how we run our bitcoin investment. one thing i will continue to love about bitcoin is the fact that even after the price as gone done you will still one way or the other go back to its normal price and now that halving is approaching does that bought the deep will make profit and another thing is that the profit most not be millions no matter how little it is it is still profit.
