1BTC or 1oz of Gold. Which one would you take?

[superresistant]

Take the more valuable.

Then exchange it to Bitcoin (if it wasn't Bitcoin first).

[bolverk]

Gold, because my assets aren't diversified enough right now...

right cause if a person is asking to be raped, might as well rape them to the max

Simple take the gold then buy some Bitcoin and after that buy some more gold and hedge your bets so to speak.

"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?"

If that is the question, I would take 0.1 BTC over 1oz gold.

[SlipperySlope]

I sold some unused gold jewelry yesterday and bought bitcoin at my local Robocoin ATM.

I expect the next bitcoin price bubble to occur in the next few months - at which point the issue of 1 BTC vs 1 oz Gold will be history.

[Sindelar1938]

Without a shadow of doubt, 1 btc

Uh, isn't the whole point of bubbles that they're artificially inflated and then harshly corrected?  You can have the bubble, I'd stick with gold, which is much less likely to be inflated.  Particularly since the powers that be work so hard to make sure the price is permanently depressed, just to keep the illusion of value in the fiat.

Or keep to a diversified portfolio.  Hold both, but transfer a percentage of one asset to the other as one becomes over or under valued.

Sounds like a great idea to me.  That would be a great way to make profit while holding both thanks for adding that idea.

Gold, women are attracted to it, apparently.

Actually, the girls I talk to tend to like silver a lot more < Jeweller

By the way I'd take 1BTC and then buy some gold and silver with it, trololololol

[FalconFly]

No brainer if I'm offered Gold or something else, I'd always go for Gold. Simply can't go wrong with that.
(my only exception once a while could be : Platinum)

Of course, "something else" may yield higher profit or alike in the future but at my age that's not my primary concern. Nothing virtual beats the security of physical AU in your own hands.

[Tonka Branded Truck]

I would take bitcoin and then after I have bitcoin I will use 40 percent of the bitcoins to buy precious metals.

You must be really old Thinking that "virtual" (mind you, that's actually "digital") is somehow less real than physical.

Do you also consider email not to be real letters?

90% of gold is virtual and doesn't exist while 100% of Bitcoin exist.

[durrrr]

I would also do this

[ryanmnercer]

I'd personally take gold. I like things I can hold.

[Trance]

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...

lmao! Agreed . . . . dumb question!

Oh really? what else do you like to 'hold' ?

LOL

There are tangible bitcoins  . . .
