the bitcoin price currently worth approximately 2 OZ gold but if you mean about the price i think you missed the opportunity that when bitcoin price reach $3000 several month ago so don't really surprise to see the growth from bitcoin because there is a chance even bitcoin price will surpassing 5 OZ gold in the future

BTC flippening gold doesnt really mean anything. Markets always go up and down and gold will find its luster back again as soon as theres bearish sentiment in the traditional markets around the world. Gold has always been one of the safest investments for thousands of years. That wont change flippening or no flippening.
You are right no coins will replace gold. It is a universal asset. And where you go in this world it has value. And all over the world, it has investors. You are right this is the safest investment for thousands of years. Bitcoin is now entering the market, and it is gaining more investors but it won't flippening gold. No, thats not what I meant. I meant even if BTC is worth much more than gold, it doesnt really take anything away from gold. Do you think the spot market for gold and other precious metals will crash simply because BTC has more value? No, of course not.

Why dont know everyone wanted Bitcoin to replace anything like bitcoin replacing fiat currency, or bitcoin replacing gold. When every one knows that Bitcoin is more like a good investment option just like gold and both investment option are good for investment as their price fluctuation is high.

Gold is does not have that high fluctuation on the price because it is more likely for long term investment which is good for people who want to have a secured investment. Bitcoin is just for people who want to make money in either short or long term or to be involved in the latest technology of the currencies and that is all about bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.

I know even newspapers do this kind of compairment, but this tells nothing.
One way which might be a reasonable comparison would be comparing the price of the total amount of gold mined till now, to the price of the total amount of bitcoin mined till now.

That won't happen until 1BTC equals 1kg or at least one pound of Gold. One Oz is not that much money after all (2500$ is a month's wage in the Western Hemisphere).
1 bitcoin = 1 kg worth of gold will never to be real, It means the bitcoin must be worthed over ten thousand dollars. OP, Bitcoin is not flipping the gold. My thought if the bitcoin is different with the gold itself. The value of the gold depends on the how many weight of the gold itself. And bitcoin is not. I would be willing to bet on that, its just a matter of time imo Gold is not useful money in the digital age

I guess we'd have to factor time into it, we will have to compare them from the time of Bitcoin's inception right until now and that will make sense to draw the correlation between the two in terms of prices.

You can not compare them, they have different background and effect, they are not the same in nature, comparison of values is a stupid thing.

Why and how would you factor time into it? Of course you have to compare them over time, like two graphs with one X-Axis (time) but factor it in?

You haven't seen anything yet if you think that statement will hold up to the testament of time Ten thousand dollars is just the next stepping stone we will hit well that and 5K we are still a technology less than a decade old the growth metric could easily reach that target a few years down the road 40-50 K is still an attainable point capped at 21 million if it keeps its utility the market caps would work out fine for that range about a Trillion is where big mainstream is so 1KG = 1 BTC seems attainable someday. https://www.macrumors.com/2017/07/07/apple-trillion-dollar-company-within-year/

I really like the higher bitcoin prices but until now gold is still the choice of the most in the interest by some people. So I think for now bitcoin can not replace gold to switch using bitcoin in investing even if bitcoin price is much higher than from gold price

I think "flippening" is not the correct word because Bitcoin has not taken gold's place. Bitcoin is still a crypto-currency, and gold still a precious metal used in jewels. Anything more precious than gold did not flippened it ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) ...

Of course, we have absolutely a reason to believe that, the potential of bitcoin is infinite, if it succeeds, the bitcoin value can rise even higher. More than any other currency, bitcoin is the only currency recognized internationally.

More than any other currency, bitcoin is the only currency recognized internationally. As of now, not many governments have accepted bitcoins as a currency yet but slowly they may regulate it. But we can find users in almost every country in the world and because of its demand and uses it will force all governments to regulate it slowly. I don't know we can compare this with gold but surely it will be a one of the best investment in the longer run.

I don't know why bitcoin is compared to gold and now they are thinking of flippening. LOL. Its like comparing apples and oranges. Maybe we can call bitcoin gold 2.0. Both has its advantage. Gold being around for a long time as store of value.Bitcoin might soar multiples higher in value who knows? but we know that it is not a reliable store or standard of value. It has no history of stability at all. And another advantage of gold - is that it's not dependent on the operation of the internet So if you have the chance to invest, then get them both.

This is what we call 21st Century, an era of digitalization . At last IT technology has been able to find replacement of the proven instrument of store of value from ages, i.e. Gold. If we considered comparison between gold and Bitcoin for last one year, gold value remain almost stagnant while Bitcoin jumped 3 times. And this difference is enough to show why flippening happening.

Well this is just an ounce of gold and since Bitcoin is not physical and doesn't have a specific weight I doubt if the comparison is fair but then if Bitcoin is able to topple a kilogram of gold in the future I think that will be the best time for comparisons really.

Gold is does not have that high fluctuation on the price because it is more likely for long term investment which is good for people who want to have a secured investment. Bitcoin is just for people who want to make money in either short or long term or to be involved in the latest technology of the currencies and that is all about bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin and gold can both be considered resources. Them two can likewise be utilized as a wellspring of venture or for individual utilize. On account of bitcoin, it is better as far as its utilization and security. It can be effectively traded among two individuals and nobody needs to stress over its security. It is less demanding for hoodlums to take gold since it has physical properties while bitcoin is a virtual or online money and there is no compelling reason to stress over its security in that sense. Likewise, bitcoin is additionally more profitable than gold and is expanding day by day at a quicker rate than gold.

I unequivocally differ that gold is the 'most secure' resource as far as speculation or ownership. Digital money has yearned supplanted gold in term of speculation. Without a doubt gold has numerous financial specialists yet that is because of the way that individuals are uninformed of bitcoins significance and having its points of interest. As far as venture bitcoins are a long ways in front of gold both in esteem and the possibility to get much more costly after some time.
