I mean BTC is a clear win for me!

[luigivessota]

Gold has been around for thousands of years, son. It's god's money.

[marketingnerd]

With BTC you hold and hope it goes up. With stocks you can get paid for doing that same exact thing. To me, there is no point of comparison. The same applies to gold.

[bobsav2121]

Stocks. Stocks. Stocks. Most of your portfolio should be dividend paying stocks. Then allocate 10% to precious metals gold and silver and another 5% to bitcoin.

Crypto is more volatile and risky than gold or stocks, but like the article says, it's also granted to get you higher returns.

[metallica101]

Bitcoin may be more volatile, but it has a limited supply. That's more than can be said for gold. As for stocks, they are less volatile than Bitcoin, but in a way equally as risky. I believe that the gold may be the winner right now, but going forward, there is a fair chance that BTC will replace it. We appear to be strongly attracted by the concept of digital everything, and that will include money and store of value.

Sorry but I've seen better overviews. The problem with many of these comparisons is they're all done by people who have an investment in either of them. Gold guy thinks gold is better right? Bitcoin guy thinks Bitcoin is better. What's the surprise?

I like Bitcoin and I think gold is better than Bitcoin for super sure investments.

[dkbit98]

Bitcoin is great, and when combined with Gold it makes perfect combination.
I don't understand why BTC and gold are considered competition of any kind.

The real problem is today fake fiat paper money that are getting printed all the time.
When that bubble burst... Bitcoin and Gold will thrive even more

[Janation]

Gold is better since it is there for a long time.

Bitcoin is better since it is volatile.

Stocks? It generated profits for a lot of people but that is the same as the other choices. I don't know what is better since I am only investing in Bitcoin on the choices. I can't blindly give an answer to that so I'd better chose these three since it gave a lot of profit to people in the time that it is there. But it is better to stick to something you know better.

I’m always wonder why anyone would go for stock, it never work for me, and I had no comment on gold and bitcoin, someone who endorse please show me some light, why do you even compare stock? It just seem to be a complete scam that’s still allowed to operate openly and billions to trillions scammed in the stock market annually, the father of greater’s fool that people still fall for it, gladly Satoshi smell it decade ago and create a stock market killer apps. Btw ignore my dabbling, but try to justify stock market in this forum is just a waste of effort.

IMO the review is surprisingly short for something called 'ultimate'. I cannot say that it is wrong it that I disagree with the results. I also think that Bitcoin is better, it's growing faster. I even did a comparison of gold and bitcoin prices, looking at the charts with data about the last five years. It's clear that Bitcoin is mainly growing in price, whereas gold is almost staying at the same level. I think it means that gold is better for people who just want to freeze their funds for some years to use them in the future, while bitcoin is better for those who are willing to risk but want profit. At the same time, it's clear that people can disagree with the review and say that it's been just 10 years with BTC, which is not enough the to predict the general trend, especially compared to other two classes.

The idea of investing in stocks is that you're investing in companies creating value, which you can clearly tell is happening if you zoom out and look at the last 20 years of innovation.

Companies are what is actually adding value to the world's economy, otherwise it would be a zero-sum game.

Now, if you ask me, should you invest in stocks now, at it's ATH? Maybe it's not that smart of an idea. But it's certainly not a scam.

It's not "god's money".It's just a rare shiny metal,that was chosen as a currency(exchange of value),because it's rare,hard to fake,easy to transport in small amounts,etc.
Anyway,when can't compare bitcoin and gold to stocks,because stocks can't be put into one group.
Apple and Microsoft stocks are completely different than General Electric or Boeing stocks.
Small company stocks are different than big giant corporation stocks.That's why this analysis is misleading.

Try to sell me the idea that company is the only thing that create values, and they just want to feed your mind with whatever they want you to know, so bitcoin create no value compare to companies according to their research, and even damaging to some extend, btw do we even question the legitimacy of a company, whether it is true it really create value as claimed, how and why it is benefiting, also do companies even exist or just an empty promise (shell companies), or may be we are all too deeply educated(brainwashed) to the point that we just accept whatever the media tell us about companies is the absolute facts with no way to refute.

I’m telling you companies are the completely opposite of what the general jurisdiction advertise about it, that sound completely contradict with your belief but it is the facts that most can’t accept. Strictly speaking companies are just an idea that the US govt invented to conquer and rule the entire population on planet earth, I mean it, and I use the words “entire earth”  loosely in this context because it’s not limited to united State, they rule the entire 7billions world’s population on earth with the idea of companies, and tell me how is companies any good now? I’m always ready to hear your and debunk all possible myths.

The problem is that between the 3 Bitcoin is the only one that does not have a concrete value. If nobody will want Bitcoin tomorrow the price will go to zero.

Or it is not the case for gold  or stocks. By having gold you  an built your own jewelry and sell them, owning stocks you own basically a small part of a company. What do you own by holding Btc if demand will decrease drastically one day?

[Kakmakr]

Looking at Bitcoin's price history for the last 3 years will show you that it out performed all other asset classes with a very wide margin. You would have more than quadruple your investment capital, if you invested anything into Bitcoin in the last 3 years. 

Yes, 2017 was a big reason for this, but the fact of the matter is that Bitcoin is giving investors ample opportunity with it's high volatility to make more profit on their initial capital investment than any other asset class out there. 

Traders ignore these facts, because Bitcoin is still a high risk investment and it is not properly regulated in all countries. 

[Darker45]

Why not invest in all three then?

Gold is the most reliable in all three. It is next to impossible that its value will plummet. That will only happen if everyone in the world suddenly agrees that this shiny metal is worthless.

Bitcoin is the fastest in terms of ROI. You cannot leave it outside your investment portfolio. Moreover, the future world is a digital world. It could equally mean that digital money is needed and there is no other digital currency which has more potential to be just that except BTC. The demand is rising in the bigger picture.

Stocks may be slow in terms of ROI but certainly consistent in long-term and relatively safer, provided you are choosing the most solid and trusted businesses. Personally, I am into it for the sake of investment diversification, long-term HODLing, and because the old wise man Warren Buffet says so. 

[jrrsparkles]

Bitcoin is an infant when comparing to gold and stocks,I don't really consider gold as an investment but it will be helpful to store the value of money you got when you hold them in the form of gold.

Stocks are good and most preferred form of investment but its will take too much time to get reaps probably more than decade to make decent profits.


When it comes to bitcoin everything is too fast and also the price changes so user's preference matters while choosing.

[anoufal]

It makes no sense to push these things together, each has its own scope

[Distraction]

When you look at the graph, it seems like you could easily say that Bitcoin is the best among them. However, you should know that Bitcoin is the newest between them. For example, gold has been standing for many many years. So, it is hard to make clear guesses. But in my opinion, Bitcoin has the brightest future.
