Holdings of gold vs Holdings of btc

[Klestar]

Its better to hold gold rather than bitcoin , why? because gold has so many feature like it is tangbile, valuable like bitcoin, you can wear , most and foremost it has a low volatility unlike bitcoin, gold is a long term investment for assurance because its price is slight stable. Bitcoin can easily fluctuate so you may loss and gain.

I prefer holding BTC than holding gold.
Because bitcoin prices are more volatile where prices can change significantly over time.
In addition, Bitcoin has a limited supply of only 21 million available in the world. And when the supply runs out, the prices of bitcoin will explode.

If I'm going to ask which one is good to hold well it depends, if you want to hold something for long term but not very long then I would choose Bitcoin, because its price is changing so anytime bitcoin can rise but if you want to become multi billionaire then you could choose gold but this is for  a very long term like 10 years or more.

[bib24]

In my opinion its better to have both. Bitcoin might not be as valuable as gold for now, but the possibility of its value to arise is huge.

[Boristhecat]

I do not consider this comparison to be correct at all. Gold has a time interval of thousands of years, while Bitcoin has only dozens. If we take historical scales, then we must admit the fact that bitcoin still "does not exist."

[marseille]

I am holding both as its very risky to depend only on bitcoins for making profits as bitcoin can disappear in future and if it does then at least I have some back up in the form of gold from where I can make some profits but if bitcoin survives longer then there is no doubt that it can give higher profits in compare to gold as the price of gold is very stable and to make huge profits from it will take really very long time but bitcoin can go to the moon at any point of time so you can expect higher and quick profits from bitcoins.

Does anyone have any idea how many people are using gold as a store of value vs btc?  And how long do you think until we have the same user Base as holders of gold?

Maybe the national statistics do have that certain data because I think they are the ones who have the access in knowing that one but that was just the idea that comes up into my mind. We still do not have an idea when and how can we come up having the same amount or number of Bitcoin users and gold users because those will be only be based on the user's preference if he will be storing gold or Bitcoin instead.

As far as I know, in 2017, we have more people choose Bitcoin for investment than Gold, this is the data and report from the world.
You can search it through google easy.
But, as I said, "for investment" but it does not mean the people also choose Bitcoin for saving and holding.
Because a lot of people invested in Bitcoin as speculative than investment.

[Jancuki]

For me all there is a shortage and an excess, if gold is seen from the price will be stable but it takes a long time to wait for the price to rise. And if the bitcoin price fluctuates too much, sometimes the price may drop considerably and can increase sharply. for myself prefers gold because of its ever-stable price.

[Rozcobs]

Gold existed very long time ago. For many centuries it had been discovered and having worth or value that can be used as a means holding and even for trading and for body accessories. So many are already holders of gold not only as stocks but as jewelries passed for centuries. If you can see countries also have jewelry stores and fronts. Compared to bitcoin it had existed only a decade ago to count the years would be not enough to compare its holders for both. We know that holding bitcoin could be more value than gold but not accessible to all the people. I mean not all countries yet have full online cryptoworld trading and exchanges. So some only were able to invest earlier were getting the worth of it. So I think it is not easy for people holding bitcoin could match the gold holdings in volume and even in worthiness.

but all of them are the investments and we need to comparing to spot which is better than the other.

If you want big speculation, invest in bitcoin. its rapidly rising and falling value, will make you get rich quickly, or lose quickly. But if you want a safe investment, invest in gold, because I believe the value of gold will continue to stabilize and rise slowly.

[jacksonmark30]

Holding gold for about 1-3 years would give you a very high probability of keeping the value of your investments or even slightly higher. Holding BTC for 1-3 years has 2 possible results; you could become rich or lose a lot depending on the people's sentiment on Bitcoin

[betchay22]

As of now for me it is better to hold gold than bitxoins. Gold is more stable and value since this is already use for a very long time. While bitcoin is already starting and proving its worth and value. Maybe by 10 years, we can already decide which one is better to hold

Gold is the safest asset in the world, Bitcoin is a very risky yet very rewarding asset in the world.

[deviltasha]

start a bitcoin to gold exchange, gather data, share.

If you compare the hold of gold with bitcoin, I would definitely choose bitcoin at any given time. I missed so many opportunities with bitcoin and I think I should not deny the opportunity to come to me again. Holding a bitcoin despite the risks, it is certain that it will yield many times more gold and that the value of bitcoin is currently very stable indicating that the market is accepting it so the risk for bitcoin investment also dropped a lot.

it still takes a long time to be able to equate bitcoin users to be like a golden user, because we know that gold users almost all walks of life it became its users but different from bitcoin users until now still in the upper middle class and for those who know the internet world

because the current era has not been supportive for a mass adoption at all levels of society. current technology is not too popular. many people are still not connected to the internet so do not be surprised if bitcoin users only for certain circles. in contrast to the gold that was already thousands of years ago and has a real physical. of course everyone from all walks of life knows about gold and I'm sure they would prefer a gold investment right now..

[Ekimzjames20]

Gold has a bigger interest because is material ,and all people loove to have it ,being a ring or other thing,bitcoin is just virtual soo people dont see it the same way as gold,even both becoming to be ending.

Holding gold is the best investment in this generation because aside from being used it will comes higher and higher in terms of value.

[Crypto-mim]

Holding of gold is safe, but not heavy profit. Holding of BTC is risk, but sometime it will comes heavy profit. Gold price is high slowly, sometime is less down. In the other hand, BTC price is up and down quickly. Many experts and journalist says the world moves in the crypto currency. So, holding of BTC is the good idea now.
