Gold or Bitcoin

[lepbagong]

for me both are equally good if we want to be used as an investment, because both are quite valuable when we need them and are easy to sell. but the difference is in the form only because gold is in the form of form and is prone to be lost while bitcoin is intangible and we can store it easily without any difficulty. if the price is clearly better bitcoin because indeed for long-term investment is good bitcoin but to show off it is better with gold.

I am a gold and silver enthusiast myself. I would encourage you to also have to consider getting a good amount of gold and other precious metals as a form of tangible investment. I don't even care if it is in buillion or jewelry as long as it is gold. Nowadays those who have the means will try to diversify their investments so they can be able to reap profits from multiple sources.

Gold:
-Bad mobility,
-Bad liquidity, (I actually mean the spread)
-Bad security, (hard to hide)
-Prices are manipulated by Government FIAT
-Doesn't work as a currency

+Good liquidity, (I mean there will always be somebody who'll buy it from you)
+Good historical value and has a track record of thousands of years, (money of gods and kings)
+Protected against social attacks and identity thefts, (79 protons in each atomic nucleus)
+Good decentralization
+Anonymous
+The ultimate hodl asset, the safest

Bitcoin
-Not enough history (Nobody knows what'll happen to bitcoin in 30 years as its experimental tech)
-Prices are being manipulated by Bitfinex FIAT
-Liquidity can go down very fast
-Miner centralization
-Possible to create social attacks on it (if you are committed enough)

+Best mobility
+Semi anonymous
+Works as a currency (I mean against gold. Not perfect, still far better than gold)
+Best liquidity among crypto


My Conclusion:

Have both but don't be too greedy with btc.

No doubt Gold is a stable investment but if you check the growth history of Bitcoin then Bitcoin price increased 1000 times more than gold in last three years. I will definitely prefer Bitcoin on Gold.

the time that gold spent in the making are enough or can be more than to what the value of bitcoin has reached in its 10 years of presence  and dont be confident enough when you said thousand times increased because that you dont know if those gains are still there tomorrow

but  gold can be pretty solid not only in its physical form but also solid in terms of its value which cant be easily break or tear down  .

Both gold and BTC have their own advantages and disadvantages. With gold you will have a safe investment but low profitability, because the fluctuations of gold are quite small.
With bitcoin you will have an investment that is highly profitable, but it also carries many risks.

[J1mb0]

If you have a huge amount of capital and as an investor, I think you should divide your assets and invest in both gold and bitcoin.
60% invested in gold and $
40% invested in bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies.

Let's say I have a huge amount of money as an investor, where do I put them? Bitcoin or Gold

We all know that gold is known for its stability which could be vital in times of financial crisis; but doesn't exactly bring good return  WHILE Bitcoin on the other hand can be quite profitable  but it's risk of negative volatility can be catastrophic!


So which has your vote? Gold or Bitcoin!!!!

Its still good to invest in both of them if possible but as of the moment, people are more likely to invest on Bitcoin since its easier and looking for a place in which you can invest on Gold is quite hard. Gold can coexist with Bitcoin but these past few days, we can see that Bitcoin is being more utilized since its available thru the Internet. The profit in investing on Bitcoin is actually more noticeable since its will reflect instantly on whichever you are investing it on.

So yeah, Bitcoin.

I'll take the second option, investing half of your capital in BTC and half in GOLD. this will benefit you. at least you have collateral on gold assets because every year the price of gold increases. whereas with BTC whenever it is unexpected, you can even get bigger profits than BTC.

It is a correct decision, people cannot know what the future of bitcoin is, but everyone is quite sure about the future and stability of gold.
Don't put all your eggs in one basket, so splitting up your investments is a correct decision.

Major portion I will also invest in crypto currencies and small portion in gold just to have a diversification as well. Else in future I think crypto would overtake gold in many senses and will be more used than gold. Since gold has being used for decades and easily accepted worldwide the demand is still rising for gold but gradually crypto will also be used in many parts of the world.

Gold and Bitcoin are both great to hold or invest in.

I personally choose both. Gold can be a savior when bitcoin prices fall because gold prices are stable. but bitcoin gives it an edge over gold when its price goes up. The fluctuations that occur in bitcoin can result in losses and profits.

It depends on your own choice.

I'll definitely loved to have both investment half in crypto and half in Gold. We all know how precious investment gold is since long time ago and its not degrade its value. But of course i couldn't resist also the precious investment in cryptocurrency amd i believe that time will come for a cryptocurrency to soar high and become popular in near future. Hoping for a crypto soon to be in a peak value and also hoping for all of us to earned like what we earn this past years.

If you like safe investment based on real profits then choose gold investment, this investment can give you returns every year. there is nothing to worry about the risks. different from crypto, that the price of crypto can change at any time, this is risky but sometimes also profitable. My advice is to make a wise decision.

[Zeronic]

Gold and bitcoin have strength and weakness itself. But I think if you want to invest, you can invest in both. Gold has more stable price than bitcoin. But if you want an investment for long term, bitcoin can be your choice. Then you can save your remaining money in gold.

I would agree to this one since gold is a tangible item that you can actually store. With proper storage you will be able to invest more and get more out of it when the time comes. I know someone who is a crypto enthusiast who bought a medium sized chest and he literally made it a treasure chest, putting his wife's jewelry, watch collection and silver coins and silver jewelry there. I think sometime you need to add a little fun to your investments. Of course his house is a common one, no one can suspect that he is rich (in terms of his collections).

[gaston castano]

you already know the advantages and disadvantages of these 2 commodities, it looks like you have to put your money in according to the circumstances or what type of investment you want.
if I would put 50:50 because both are great assets.

It's still the best option. Having both assets and these two aren't just assets but great assets that many don't have.

Wouldn't go all in to gold and the same as with bitcoin. It's always advisable to put your eggs in different baskets just like what we've been hearing from the great investors that has made that quote.

yes I agree with you, the warren buffet that mentions it, so that when one of your assets decreases you can still replace it elsewhere.
but if viewed from the whole gold is still more desirable in my opinion.
because the liquidity is guaranteed and higher than bitcoin.

[senyorito123]

Apparently, I am not against with gold at the very serious matter specially in terms of profitable aspects. It's more advantageous if both bitcoin and gold will be our main asset these days, because they're the most potential holdings that's considered to be valuable by the time bullrun hits over in the future.
I don't have to choose any of them as rivalry, and I'd loved them to be a good tandem as long as their foundation remain stronger as a currency and asset.

[KimmyF]

On gold I did several research to invest. I can tell you that gold value will not vanished until our Earth exists. But value is increasing very slowly, where we don't know the supply amount of this gold. Invest big money in Bitcoin or altcoins which you can afford to lose. Don't invest all your money in gold when we know the maximum supply of Bitcoin.

[Ronaldcoin2017]

We don't need to select gold or bitcoin when we can invest on both sides.There is no restriction if we buy both gold and bitcoin and i believe that that it is wiser if we invest on both gold and bitcoin so that we can compare the profit that we can get on investing into it thete is no harm on trying infact we can get learnings thag we can use in the near future.

[rajuodedra5556]

Both gold or bitcoin is right in their place. We can say that bitcoin is the gold of the coming new generation as everyone has a fascination for gold, but in terms of earning, we can increase our capital using bitcoin. Gold is very important, it is used more in weddings. If both gold and bitcoin are compared then it would be difficult to decide which is better.

We cannot accurately predict the future of the crypto market, maybe it will have a big step or maybe it will turn into a pile of trash.
For a large investment, investing too much in the crypto market brings a lot of risks. It is best to invest a lot in gold and a small part in cryptocurrency.
