Why is bitcoin better than stocks, real-estate?

[pginvest]

Certainly there appears to be 2 strategies of investment that will work with Bitcoin. One is long term holding, the other is to ride the waves and get your timing right, dipping in and out and using the volatility to your advantage. If you can master that you could do very well, if you get it wrong - it does not end well.

If you want to actively trade it's best to split your portfolio into a long-term part that you never touch, and a trading part for active flipping.

it is very subjective...all these options have their pros and cons...each investor must understand all the risks and choose his own option

Not everyone is aware of this risk and they use to out all in one bucket so it is good to have this type of discussion and invest on right time with bitcoin. Bitcoin is increasing money for all people and it can give long and short time benefit at the same time. For me the reason why bitcoin is better than the real strokes is bitcoin establishments and high growth in price and money making so it is because bitcoin is better than all other investments.

The measure is the rate of profit, when compared with stocks or real-estate then very much the difference in the benefits of bitcoin investment, especially if what we measure is during this year.

Just have a comparison taking an stock that has grown high, then a real estate property in a highly valued location together with bitcoin. Look at the growth at the starting of the year to the end year. None could have reached such a growth, and this is the one that makes bitcoin to be the best.

We can do this analysis of btc versus real estate and the result will weigh heavily on the side of btc. It has had an absurd growth in recent years, as well as buying a property. But when we buy a property the financial and accurate return, the btc already has a somewhat black future and no one can predict when it will go or if it will be eternal (some other means of payment may someday take its place just like it took several means of payments)

I think the bitcoin's price isn't depending on any one even sharks and whales. But the price of real estate is totally depending on the goverment and the real-estate projects.

Comparatively bitcoin is the best. The traditional options you've mentioned is controlled by any means and the profit may be little, but bitcoin is decentralised and the profit is huge. Meanwhile bitcoin can be converted to currency or exchanged for many transaction easily but real estate can't.

You may have traditional investments as a part and invest in bitcoin with your half of investment for one year, then calculate the profit you earned for both. You would be surprised that bitcoin may have yielded 2 or 3 times more than your traditional investments. Just try and feel the difference.

Well bitcoin compared to stocks and real estate is far more profitable. Although bitcoin is a very risky investment, it had made millionaires and billionaires.

I think it all really depends on what you are looking for.

If you want to really gamble and do a super high risk high reward option you can start a majority of your investing money into bitcoin and other crypto currencies, like the above user said you can either just hold and go for a price increase or trade since the market has so many swings and try to grow your stack.

If you are looking for a passive income source you could look into real estate and trying to get different properties by saving and investing in them and keep repeating the process. You can build a really good nest and accumulation through stocks and investing in solid long term companies, compounding interest is your best friend here. In the end it all depends on what your investment goals are and how investing a majority of your money in one of these investment streams can help you get to your goal.

I suspect it all comes down to personal opinion. Some people would agree to the
statement that bitcoin is better than stocks and real-estate investments. Others
on the other hand, would disagree. I really favor BTC on the subject because of
the fast paced growth it has on this year alone, it is quite profitable indeed. But
to compare it with stocks and real-estate, is a different matter. All of them are
long term investments chaperoned with risks and if we analyse deeper, real-estate
has this solid unyielding potential to return your investments and profit more
throughout the years. Bitcoin and stocks however share a peculiar similarity with
the uncertainty on the rise and fall of their prices over time.

Bitcoin is better than stocks because you can trade it 24/7 and you can earn big profit when you are a good trader but if you are not then you can also be an investor the longer you hold bitcoin the higher the profit you will get.

[vhiancs]

i think the stocks and real astate are better still. it's because their value is not decreasing in their own country, but we know bitcoin currency or cryptocurrency is actually more profitable but we are not sure when the value price will fall and slow down as they say we should be ready.

In the rate of return of investment(ROI), bitcoin is better but you have to consider that it is very risky to invest in a virtual currency where you dont know what lies ahead.Will there be bitcoin in the year 2020 or 2050 no one can tell really but the stocks,real state,golds and the likes will be there, they won't banished they will be valuable on that time.

Indeed. Always bear in mind that it is very risky to invest where you dont know or you dont have the knowledge to your asset. Anyway, all assets mentioned are all better especially when you invest because it has proven for long-term track record of generating returns.

I agree bitcoin is far more better than stocks, real estates, etc because it offers a lot of opportunity which is a lot of ways to earn and be profitable. For example trading is a good source of bitcoin and if you have enough knowledge you can earn big everday. Many investors look at the volatility of bitcoin as an opportunity rather than a disadvantage.

[syaripudin]

although bitcoin is a form of investment with a very high profit value right now but it's become a benchmark that bitcoin is a great investment if we compare just like any other form of investment. because a bitcoin investment is an investment activity that has a high enough risk level I say that because bitcoin investment is an investment based on blockhaind technology that is very vulnerable to the actions of hackers that would certainly be detrimental to us. so I think bitcoin has a very high asset value but at a security level, of course, its investment form like that is more secure than the bitcoin investment.

[Zertoshi]

You cannot put these 3 kinds of investments on one scale and say which one is better.
There are many dimensions (risk, return, longevity, and many more)
Basically you need to differentiate speculation (hope to sell something to a higher price) and income (for stocks: dividends; real estate: rent). With bitcoin you get no income (no interest), only transaction costs. Nothing bad, but it is worth to keep in mind that it is a purely speculative investment.

The fact that it can not be denied, bitcoin is able to double profits more than just real estate stocks. That's what investors think. and it also makes bitcoin better than real estate stocks.

In the traditional investment systems  there are areas like stock exchange, real estates, commodity market, forex market. Then there are hedge funds, mutual funds, equity, debentures. Next in line are precious metals like Gold, silver, diamond. Years after year and decades after decades when mainstream economics was convincing people that how one of above is better than other as it is giving returns in the range of 8% to 9% at max 10-13% a new revolution named bitcoin is rising and spreading across the world. Bitcoin has defied all conventional knowledge about return on interest. Surviving each negative publicity and doubts, incidents like mt. gox and still growing better than ever.

What do you think why bitcoin is the best investment than stocks, real-estate, gold or any other conventional investment?

Bitcoin is better than gold and stocks when the factor of rate of return is considered. Btc provides high profits at a much faster rate, Investments are used for long-term purposes but it's widely used and very economical as well when compared to BTC which is still relatively new in the financial market.

Bitcoin has very big risks! If you buy a home it will remain with you. Risks in real estate and shares are much less than profits
