Is gold better than Bitcoin?

[Ayers]

Actually gold is better than bitcoin in any point. Gold is a valuable mineral that you can touch and see by your naked eye and it has lot of market rather than bitcoin they have the same characteristics that can buy anywhere and can sell anywhere the difference is that is value gold is much valuable than bitcoin and it has thousands of decades since it its first mine. So the value became higher and higher and higher. 

value is not based on somethign because it is real lol, it is only based on demand and supply and usage, usage is very important, gold has value because it is used

[Endikadija]

Gold it is more popular and more stabeled.but bitcoin is also increasing a lot

[streazight]

The only think i would say about this topic is just search for something better to ask because bitcoins will never be such as good as gold is now. Do you even know that bitcoins exist in gold and that if gold will not be here anymore that bitcoin does not even has a value only thing he is right then a worthless coin.

Bitcoin and Gold for me both are same, but bitcoin is easiest way than gold.
If you think that everyone can handle the bitcoin and use it in an investment and also save it and get profit, but in the opposite, if we save the gold so it is not easy and also not everyone can handle it, and also need some information about the gold,than you get profit. otherwise gold is difficult than bitcoins.   

In my view, bitcoin is better than Gold, because now i m earning from bitcoins, but i don't know how to earn from gold, so it is not possible for everyone to earn the profit from the Gold, bitcoin earning is a easy way, everyone can understand how to earn from bitcoins instead of gold.

i dont think gold is better than bitcoin

gold price change a lot

Oh yeah, that's a good point because the Bitcoin price is so fucking stable. ROFL

[Cuidler]

Bitcoin has much higher potential for profit, but is riskier as well. I personally hold both longterm, but since I got into Bitcoin I dont buying more gold anymore because I accumulating Bitcoins only (might change in future when I feel I have too much Bitcoins, thus too much risk)

Interesting question.
Behind Gold is very long trading tradition in many different cultures, different ages etc.
Usually, in the time of big, global, financial crisis, traders invest in gold in order not to loose value of their assets.
Bitcoin is very new product, not widely used, limited mostly to Internet and only a few merchants accepting Bitcoin.
Of course, we all hope that this will change but now reality is that gold is better.

1. In my country this is reality.
2. Gold is not currency so of course you can't buy anything with gold.
Gold is not money but assets, very valuable assets, which you can very easily sell and receive money.

As I have said with other topics that are fairly similar to this one, you're asking a biased demographic and chances are most are going to answer with "Bitcoin is better than gold for X and Y reasons". Which makes sense, in its own way, and Bitcoin is better than gold in a lot of aspects, but gold is also better than Bitcoin in some aspects too.

It all comes down to the circumstances surrounding the investment.

Gold is basic wealth from human being every one who had gold mine mean that he is rich and we use example for  rich people's u earn bitcoin to buy gold it's always win that's all.

Yes, gold exist earlier than bitcoin and it also well known globally. But bitcoin may replace gold as investation because bitcoin keep growing and become valuable  ( it's value getting increase ) so it will attract more people to invest it

No bitcoin is better than Gold,, because gold's price is going down and bitcoin's price is going up, so mostly people refer to bitcoins who is already using  bitcoins. also bitcoin is a easy way to get earn money, everyone can earn and use it easily instead of gold.

i dont think so that bitcoin is better than gold. gold has a uiversal value. a precious element. which is recognized for last thousands of year. bitcoin is quite new. it will take so much time to reach to that leve. and there less flexebalixy in the rates of gold as compare to bitcoin

A lot of people seem to think gold is the answer to all our problems. Every time the economy takes a turn for the worst, people turn to gold.

that there are tons of gold stored in secret vaults under government buildings You have the only entry to your investment, when you invest in Bitcoin. { The private key } The proof that it exist, is on a public blockchain....  

Gold is transportable and tradeable wealth, thats why in turmoil its valued.   Maybe Asia gets richer and your high level skilled worker (growth economies value skilled labour highest) is then moving thousands of miles away.  This is where he sells his fixed asset like a house and must then purchase goods in that foreign country, in between gold is inevitably involved in foreign exchange even if the man himself does not travel with it.  

The gold under gov buildings is long past a factor in anything, this died with Nixon now its politics and USA as superpower etc.   The whole point of QE and modern debt is we no longer have notes connected with gold, its reliant on creditors like China to hold the debt and use it in goods trading.  Saudi Arabia and Japan also, its a factor in the relations to these economies and anything which shakes those countries upsets us all with dollars.
     Its heavily political with any great upset or turmoil turning the tables from debt value to gold possibly or even bitcoin as we've seen.   Anything is tradable but how well it carries value over time varies alot, gold is the most durable

gold have value from thousand years bitcoin only have value when have internet but i like silver than gold

But unfortunately the thousand years of reputed one will be replaced by the new comer. In this digital era, the history of gold will not help it to sustain, where bitcoin is invented for the purpose of ease for digital use.

How gold and silver were replaced by fiats for the purpose of easy currency, same way bitcoin will replace all of them for the purpose of electronic usage.

Bitcoin is really good at a moment, and you don't need to buy full bitcoin, you can even buy it in small parts and hold if for future which can give you profits equivalent to full btc.

hmm it depends on the people  but for me i will choose gold because it's more secure you can use it like you can make it to became necklace for me but for bitcoin ofcourse bitcoin is easy to trade easy to transfer without any fss gold is you can touch it and gold price is decreasing while bitcoins price is increasing.

[StoreBit]

i think there is no comparison between bitcoin and gold. gold has its own value and bitcoin has its own value. i think we should not compare it with each other.
