Actually today I watched a video on facebook which is about spending bitcoin and gold in USA,it says it is difficult to spend bitcoin but some places are accepting bitcoins accepting as payment like supermarket,restaurants and some institutions.But no one accepting gold as payment then why still people says gold is better?
Because gold has already proved its stability in price for many decades. But in bitcoins, you can become a millionaire in an instant. It all depends on the circumstances, your decisions and good luck. Therefore, opinions were divided.

People says Gold is better, because gold has a stable value in market and definitely its value increses in future. People have trust on gold because rigid price and having confidence future returns. And gold accepted all over the world. In case of bitcoin, still it is accepted as payment, having unsecured nature due its unstable fluctuating market value, in some countries still not legalised and having problems in conversion to money.

It is because not all of the people knows bitcoin, that is why they are saying that gold is better. They only know what is the worth of gold but they are judging bitcoin without knowing what its real worth. They didn't know that bitcoin is more valuable and more worthy than gold, hence, we can't force them to trust bitcoin or to invest their money to bitcoin.
Gold is the old money for us, and that is also the reason why other people say so, especially those old people who are crazy about finding gold.

people trust gold, because that's what they are sure, they have a lot of experience associated with gold and a minimum of risks...and the cryptocurrency is a fairly new technology and not everyone is ready to appreciate it

Well, everyone has a perspective. I can't blame them for thinking that gold is better. Gold is a universal investment whih can be used in most of the countries unlike Bitcoin that has legalization issues. Also, its market value is way more stable than Bitcoin that is volatile in nature. Maybe that is their perspective when it comes to investment and let's just respect it.

Bitcoin is created to be a digital currency,while gold is a precious metal and gold has a stable value in market Maybe for someone gold is better when it comes to store of value.

In my opinion, some people say that gold is better than gold because of the acceptance of it. Gold or real cash it much better than bitcoin because it is the primary use of many people. The acceptance of bitcoin is very low, only 15-20% of people accept bitcoin and gold or real money is almost 100%. That is the reason why some people are saying that gold is better than gold.

Gold is a hard currency and there is always a good price for gold. It is impossible to pay for services with gold, but I think that this is not a problem. Gold is a very good investment.

People say gold is better than bitcoin because gold has long, it is considered the standard unit of currency, the value of gold is not affected much as soon as the world is war or the country is suffering economic crisis.

“Gold remain a relevant asset class in modern portfolios, despite their lack of yield,” analysts including Jeffrey Currie and Michael Hinds wrote. “They are neither a historic accident or a relic.” Looking at properties such as durability and intrinsic value, they are still relevant even with new materials discovered and new assets emerging, such as cryptocurrencies.
Investors boost the amount of gold in their portfolio as uncertainty increases, making fear the key medium to short-run driver, Goldman said. Wealth is the long-term driver, especially in emerging markets such as China, where growing income levels over the next few decades will support prices.
Bitcoin has put in a phenomenal performance this year, soaring toward $6,000 after starting the year around $1,000. In contrast, gold is up 12 percent. The bank listed several characteristics to compare them, adding that it’s focusing on the currency, not the blockchain technology. They include:
Durability: While both require expertise for correct long-term storage, gold wins because cryptocurrencies are vulnerable to hacking through online wallets or the user’s computer or smartphone, are subject to regulatory risk, and network and infrastructure risk during a crisis.
Portability: Transferring bullion can be expensive, given its weight, need for a high level of security and high import taxes in some countries, such as India. In contrast, it’s much faster and cheaper to move bitcoins.
Intrinsic value: There’s a limited supply of gold and other precious metals in the Earth’s crust, whereas in the case of cryptocurrencies, it’s easy to create alternatives, meaning there’s effectively no control over supply at a macroeconomic level and no intrinsic value due to rarity.
Unit of account: Gold is better at holding its purchasing power, and has much lower daily volatility. Bitcoin/dollar volatility has averaged almost seven times that of gold in 2017, the bank said.

I think why other people gold is better because this kind of investment is safe or less risk. Because even the price of bitcoin continue to increase fast they will crash fast also and thats the disadvantage. While in gold the price continue to increase but slowly but surely so your money safe or prevent to lose. But for me both is good. Bitcoin gives you high profit and gold gives you high profit also.

I think that is not reasonable to compare Gold or other commodities with whichever cryptos. That are two absolutely different planets with different rules.

They always say that because of Gold's physical luxurious beauty that's pleasing to the eye and could make you look rich when you have one in your accessories. They will keep telling you that until they realize how and what the price of Bitcoin can reach and could buy them tons on it in high karats in just a single Bitcoin in the near future.

Gold has history of centures. It was known and used for trade a lot of years ago. Gold is reliable investment and its price is rather stable comparing with BTC

many people thought about tat all money convert in gold to save future but that is not best way because they didn't know about bitcoin, the best way is bitcoin and bitcoin can save their money for future and if you can't save your money in bitcoin so you will earn much more money in short time for best future and you can start best business from bitcoin's payment .

Perhaps most people are more confident to invest in gold when compared to the type of investment in bitcoin because investing in gold does not have so much risk when compared to bitcoin, but the benefits are much different because investing in bitcoin can be said to be a very promising investment because of price movements bitcoin very quickly changes its value when compared with gold.

I think the rising in bitcoin community is a enjoyable event. The more bitcoin users there are, the price of bitcoin will afterward be far away afield ahead. And technology is as well as moving in the processing of digital currency thus i can accustom it is a enjoyable matter for bitcoin if not enlarged.
