If you had a choice between 1BTC or 1oz of Gold, which one would you choose?

Well... since 1 ounce of gold is currently trading for more than 1 bitcoin, I would take the gold and then trade it for more than 1 bitcoin.
Kind of a no brainer...

If you're going to ask this question, you might as well propose it in a form which is worth discussing:
"If you could accept 1 BTC or 1 oz of gold - but you can't sell or do anything with it for 5 years - which would you take?"

1 BTC or 1/2oz of Gold. Then I'd directly go for BTC.

If (and only if) the question is proposed in these terms, I could prefer 1 BTC, even if now it worth less than 1/2 oz of gold. It's just about its potential: I think it is improbable that 1 oz of gold could change someone's life in 5 years, while there are at least some chance that BTC will (edit: continue to) raise its value in an exponential way. |
