Bitcoin or gold?

[defined]

Didn't it get canceled after all, wtf?

are you making this up, it was never mentioned that it will ever be cancelled, also it need an hard fork, and it go against the fundamentals rules of bitcoin...aka it will never happen

I just asked. But never mind, there were a few threads as of recent questioning whether the coming halving should be canceled, so no smoke without fire?

No it will not cancel and it will make the price of bitcoins increase. But the supply of bitcoins will be limited into 21 million soon. Don't believe that rumors that bitcoin halving will be cancelled.

Bitcoin halving will be surely done in the month of July and its not gonna canceled, so investing in bitcoin at a moment is the best thing to do.

But No people can give guarantee bitcoin will be rise after/before blockhalving done 
so better sell some of your bitcoin now and save some for future too.

If the current price is higher then what you bought then I think you should sell some of your coins and generate  profits from it rather then holding long.

The price when you bought has nothing to do with the current price. You should sell or buy when you feel the price is right. Thinking about what you paid for it is not rational.

'Loss aversion refers to people's tendency to strongly prefer avoiding losses to acquiring gains. Most studies suggest that losses are twice as powerful, psychologically, as gains.'

I will choose bitcoin, as it will allow me to make profits in next 3 months, the speculation around is that price will go higher then our expectation which can give us best returns.

if the benefit in the near future gold can also do it dude because basically the price of gold is also moving. but it is the difference that the amount of profit. you can earn huge profits from bitcoin in the near future because of the price movement is fast and big enough

Yeah people are investing their money in bitcoin only because of its high volatility which allows them to make big profits which is not possible in gold, as gold is far stable in compare to bitcoin.

up 20% year to date, I wouldnt call that stable

[deisik]

bitcoin is unmatched in its department technology, i mean the blockchain i highly doubt something so valueble will fade away

I think you overestimate its value in the "department technology" (whatever you may mean)

i mean the blockchain, and no, i don't think it's overestimated, actually is the opposite, it's very underestimated at the moment

And what's its use and value beyond those of being a payment system? Further on, as a payment system, its only "advantage" is decentralized nature of the emission of money the circulation of which it is supposed to provide...

But as money (concept thereof) it is inferior to a well-developed fiat system

Gold is not stable, by any means. It could easily fall below $1,000 or jump to $2,000 per troy ounce. It may in fact be intrinsically stable, but we don't buy goods with it, so this stability is irrelevant

well, there were a lot of speculations that the price would reach $1000 in 2015 but nothing happen. bitcoin price is kind of stable this year so you will not make high profits from it

i think it will take a few years to hit the $1000 again.

If price of bitcoin goes to higher level at the time of halving then we might see this price at the end of the year, I don't think we need to wait longer now to see this price.

I'm starting to lean more towards bitcoin as the potential for growth is tremendous, whereas gold has already reached its maturity stage. Although gold will always be valuable, and has more stability, sooner or later, BTC will be adopted by the masses and the price would stabilize in the coming years. By that time, I hope I'm already holding enough BTC.

Think smart and invest smartly, gold is history now, no doubt it is more popular then bitcoin  at a moment, but bitcoin will shine better then gold in future.

exactly gold is old way to invest money but there are not big chances to make benefit and I am looking here in bitcoin a lot of way to make benefit that's why I think who are aware about bitcoin definitely they chooses bitcoin.

A lot people use gold as store of value and also for the day that something as a new war will happen were fiat money is not part of the game anymore. That's when gold and other precious materials come handy. That's what people will use as currency.

People who are using bitcoin are aware about the potential of bitcoin and they also know that bitcoin can make them rich in quick time which is not possible with gold.

[praprata]

I would go for the gold and the bitcoin both because they are both pretty nice to make profit.
Just one for a long term and the other for a short term.

If you have to choose only one then what would you choose? We all know that both are the best when it comes to an investment, but If I had an choice to select only one then I would go with bitcoin.

why not use both and enjoy the best of both worlds. I've seen quite some good rates in the past  for gold and some new future horizons in Bitcoins .
I wonder if someone think in this way and Quit neither of them

You can maximize the use of gold because you only rely on the future price, although we can assure that the price of gold will rise but bitcoins has a different benefits cause we can use it on a daily basis if we are good in trading we can earn for it.

Gold will definitely survive for a long time since then it is proven that gold can really a stable source of income but there is a season for it and only few people can afford.
Unlike bitcoin, all of us, rich or poor can avail to have a bitcoin.

[intrader]

Gold prefered for long term it is too risky to turn all your assets into bitcoin we never know what if someday in the future bitcoin crash to zero value

[Nowl1935]

Its the same, both bitcoin and gold price are going up, if you save now and sell it in the future. Its better to save that both

[boyptc]

Yeah, very risky if you are going into gold trading, but your income is sure but it takes a lot time, you would be lucky
if there is someone who you talk to that is really interested to buy your golds. But still, time investment needs also with gold.
