I have had to rub my eyes to double check that is a 9 as in 9K in front of the Bitcoin price. I guess that will make headlines and when it does people will get curious and search Google. I am not sure gold is a good comparison though, as someone pointed out - most people have a good handle on what thats about and dont Google it a lot.

I think it is because the future is now. More people are now interested to digital currency like bitcoin rather than gold. The price of bitcoin is becoming higher as time goes by rather than gold. Also, bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies are coming out to some news and articles thats why more people become curious about it.

Compared with bitcoin, Gold is outdated. Although both of them has scarcity, liquidity and fungibility, Bitcoin has much better transferability and divisibility compared with gold. You cannot carry 100Kg of gold in the street and it is difficult to divide the gold.

people discovered gold since 1848
Say whaaat? Dude, gold was "discovered" way longer ago than 1848. That may have been the gold rush in the United States, but you're missing a huge part of history if you think that. Precious metals are pretty much a dead investment right now. Look at where the market has been since 2011--down and sideways. No growth whatsoever. So does it really surprise you that people are googling bitcoin, which has grown like 1000's of % since 2009? That's normal, whereas gold has been around for centuries and there's not much going on in the world of precious metals markets. Gold is still a nice, shiny metal that makes for nice coins and jewelry--and that's all it's ever going to be. The bull market is in bitcoin, not metals, so all of this is to be expected.

It's not really that crazy if you think about it. Gold has existed since forever, and people know what gold is. Bitcoin on the other hand, not everyone knows what that is yet. What what do people do when they don't know something? They google it. So BTC being searched more than gold isn't surprising at all.

Why should people search about gold on internet ? As far as i know bitcoin is relate to internet without it we can't control our coins neither we can earn it. But about gold its free to use everywhere and there's no internet required probably bitcoin exist on internet so people search on it. We can gain more info from people about gold as compare to internet. Price update of gold is also available on internet that’s why people need to search about bitcoin and most probably this is bad news for the gold investors that bitcoin has diverted people heads toward it and now it is getting 100% attention of people who invest in the gold before. And whole world now thinks that this is now the end of gold era and the revolutionary bitcoin era will be going to start soon to bring business.

No wonder, gold has been around for several years and bitcoin is fashionable
In fact, people are investing in bitcoin more than they are investing in gold or even any other investment portfolio, bitcoin is the best investment opportunity out there now in the world and everyone should invest while they still can. Yeah , you said true . Here a big factor in the current time we are seeing that people are not getting a better job to make the life better with less hardwork and bug earnings , so they are moving toward these types of cryptocurrency field , and here everyone at first knows about the bitcoin , and also why not he should know about the bitcoin Because it is the king of all the coins and also people have more trust with the bitcoin than any another coin , so every newbie is looking toward to buy the bitcoin first . And with another factor that the supply of the bitcoin getting down down day by day , so why not people will move toward the bitcoin and search about the bitcoin more and more. What it is happening is that people are revealing to the current system, humans are more productive than ever before and yet we are working as hard or even harder than in the decades before, not only that, our salaries have not grown for the last decades and when you take into account inflation then our purchasing power has been cut in half, that is why people are looking for other ways to earn.

as time goes by and more people are hearing bitcoin, of course they try as much as possible and google is an easy way to gain knowledge. The growing number of newcomers is really a strong cause.

Many do not know about bitcoin, so from that they start to find out on google or from their friends. But when they know that bitcoin prices are high, maybe they will keep investing with gold.

That is of course, btc is a new trend in the world and they need to know more about it. Gold has existed for so long, people seem to have no questions about it. BTC, as well as crypto, are a fairly complex system and that is reason of why people are looking for it.

What else do people need to know about gold? Perhaps they already have many of them in their vault But they still dont know about bitcoin, that's why they search it ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Lol! Maybe from time to time they will have to check the price per gram and per karat. Or which country sells cheaper gold like i do sometimes. They will not profit much in gold so people will switch to what gives them more money.

This doesn't surprise me. Bitcoin is at the moment much more worth than gold and because of this very high value it has become planetary popular, everyone thinks Bitcoin is their opportunity to get rich. Gold is kind of old fashioned, tradtional investment and it's losing the battel against Bitcoin but still there will be always people who will buy gold.

Honestly when was the last time anyone cared about gold? Noone really uses it. Maybe really old people. xP I think mostly gold is kept as an asset at home or somewhere just because they can afford it or they like how it looks or like the idea of owning gold. Bitcoin is cyber money and gold is physical. We just keeping up with technology.

Well I think it is because of the high inflation rate of the bitcoin these past few weeks.The inflation has made the people interested to it.And I think gold isnt really a thing that people will be interested with.

Its not surprising for people to search for bitcoin than gold because bitcoin plays a big role in different lives today most especially that christmas season is coming and as they discover that bitcoin is more profitable than gold people will really find ways on how to earn it.Bitcoin became more known to our society because of its unstoppable price that keeps on rising.I think most people will go through the new era the new trends of earning money through digital currency.

I started thinking that why do we need to search about gold? We all know what is gold its been teached to us what it is in our science class and gopd are very old and this era is the internet era which means all the people will be curious about something new something that are unusual to hear because you cannot heard about bitcoins to anybody and bitcoins is the future because ypu do no want to be outdated to those things.
