Do you consider Bitcoin the best asset in the world?

[Wiwo]

I wonder why many are choosing real estate over bitcoin as an investment even though the inflation rate has affected the real estate sector lately and one can not help but to notice the fall out of things in that sector and it the real estate have been the worst hit in the global economic crisis.

-For the sake of speculation and risk, I will rather invest in Bitcoin at the moment even though many think that bitcoin is over priced and will reverse back to its bottom and again this is not true and not provable but knowing the risk factor in bitcoin will give you stable. Mindset even when the volatility happens.

-Bitcoin is best for long-term investment same as gold and real estate.

For me my personal opinion is Bitcoin is one among the best assets in the world's. And along with this I will buy gold and land. I have never seen these assets fall in price or value to date. And my suggestion is that the best asset in this world can never be one because their positions change over time and the best asset will be that which will be useful in the future.

[Minecache]

Many people think that real estate is the best asset, this is true because with the increasing population density and the never-ending demand for housing, real estate is really the best asset. But for me, bitcoin is the asset that gives me the most profit as well as a better life since I invested in it. Both are very good, so anyone with economic conditions should not compare but should diversify and should own both of these properties.

I've seen so many common individuals and celebrities who have invested in real estate so you might be right with that but I think investing in real estate is not easy, not instant and may require a bigger capital. Selling it is not also instant.

This is where Bitcoin becomes a better alternative, not only for real estate but also on other investment assets/instruments. Bitcoin's supply is also very limited which makes its price rise into a whole new level. No other assets including real estate can match it. If I were to diversify I will still pick crypto and I will only add some good altcoins or tokens in my bag. There is no need to look for other assets out there.

I do not consider altcoin input as investment diversification to avoid risk. As we all know, the entire altcoin market depends on bitcoin, which means if bitcoin falls, the rest will fall, and if bitcoin collapses, the whole market will hardly continue to exist. Therefore, investing in altcoins will not reduce your risk, you need to invest in assets other than the crypto market to be called diversified.

Supply is an advantage of bitcoin that gives it a chance to skyrocket in the future when demand is higher than supply. But let's not forget that bitcoin is still a risky asset, and we are still uncertain about its future. That's why we have a saying, only invest with what you can lose.

If we are going to talk about crypto, yeah, obviously it's the best asset, number 1, the prime mover, dominance is close to 50% and there were time that it's more than that. Meaning that it's the asset majority of crypto investors are putting their money with.

But if we are talking about the whole asset class, I would agree that it will be real state, it's tangible and it's appreciate every year and for generations to generations, you can transfer it as a inheritance. You can even rent it if you have a place, or apartment and it can pay the mortgage by itself, and so income is assured yearly and monthly. And this is what I observed from my country as well, there are a lot of millionaires who invest on real state, but lands and build lot of apartments for rent.

Do you all consider Bitcoin the best asset in the world or do you think there are other assets with as much potential for safe long term appreciation?

By best asset I mean potential for long term return on investment versus potential for risk. Return vs risk.

Bitcoin investment is really profitable and one of the best assets to acquire but if we think about the assurance, real estate investment is still the best option to choose. Practically speaking, I do agree with the potentiality of Bitcoin to exist long-term but the risk is too high than just acquiring real estate and even in the stock market. If we notice, many rich people have no interest in buying and holding crypto, and probably the reason is that it gives us no assurance, unlike if we are investing in the stock market and real estate, and even investing in gold as well is another option, yet the returns aren't fast unlike in crypto.

If you want to engage in safer investments, then gold and property are the best assets to work with, but if you want to take risks, bitcoins are the way to go. There are many sources that will give reasons to make us believe in bitcoin, maintaining value is one that we often encounter and many other reasons when intending to dig into the benefits of investing in bitcoin.

But if you ask about risk, then no one will be able to give an answer about the safety of the assets you have, especially if you have never done any research before getting involved in an existing investment.

Think of it this way, if you had to put all your money in a single asset, would you put it in anything but Bitcoin? I already made that decision years ago by putting just about all my money in Bitcoin. But how about you all? Where do you land on this question?

Right now I believe that bitcoin is the best asset ever, but for the next decades you and anyone will never know how bitcoin is?

If I have the chance, I'll try in a few places?
1. Bitcoins
2. Gold
3. Real Estate

There are wise reasons that we cannot rely on one investment model, because we can have opportunities in several sectors. The investment function that we do is to seek profit and we must be able to take advantage of it, even if not bitcoin, gold and real estate. At least for now it's much more profitable to get involved in bitcoin, than to try to invest beyond what I'm telling you.

[Razmirraz]

For now maybe yes, Bitcoin as the best asset in the world. Bitcoin will always have a price as long as there is demand and supply, who can guarantee that Bitcoin will have a price in the next 15 to 20 years. Real estate has been the best asset from the past, present and future. Its value will continue to increase over the years, the risk that might occur is very small with this asset.
You can still get a return on a Bitcoin investment, but the level of risk is also directly proportional if the price continues to fall. It takes caution and patience in investing in Bitcoin, sometimes what you plan doesn't go as expected. If you want to invest in the long term to enjoy the results in old age, real estate is the best asset.

[inthelongrun]

For me, real estate remained the best asset. It is a basic commodity and everything starts within it. When it comes to investment, real estate may not provide quick returns short term, especially in wide undeveloped areas where it may even be considered a liability due to regular taxation.

Bitcoin for me is like a gem, it is volatile but the potential is just too high. I consider bitcoin the best investment if we are looking for a few years' time-frame profit. Unless we are to start a business but that is energy and time-consuming.

[Lucius]

There is no way you could compared bitcoin to ethereum, bitcoin is more trusted, secure and reliable than any other altcoin out there usually i don't even give attention to those coin. In some special cases if there were no bitcoin as option then i have to go for Ethereum, BNB, Matic.

I completely agree with the first part, because it has nothing to do with each other, not only because one coin uses POW, and the other has moved to POS, but also because Bitcoin has a very low max supply (compared to the mentioned token) which owes its popularity (and price) precisely to the fact that it has unlimited supply and at least for now x6 times more coins on the market. There is no trust, decentralization, meaningful use, but everything depends on one man who wants to compete with Bitcoin, and for 8 years he has not succeeded in doing so.

As for the other one you mentioned, I personally wouldn't invest a single cent in something like that, although I don't want to influence anyone else in what they do with their money.


Regarding the OP's question, I think that people should primarily look at Bitcoin as a cryptocurrency and use it as much as possible, and only then invest in it as an asset. Otherwise, it all boils down to when you will buy and when you will sell - which is still a big mystery for most.

I think there is this new understanding of crypto that is going to change overtime. Obviously real estate has been a thing for thousands of years, it is not anything new, and that is why it's hard to change the idea in peoples mind, but it is also a good return maker as well so it is not a bad idea so there is no need to change it neither.

But, I can tell you that if you invested in bitcoin, we all know you would have been richer right? So, there is really no reason to keep it going at this rate neither. I hope that people would end up understanding that as much as possible, because it is an important part of it. I know it is not going to be easy, but that's an important part of it, crypto is bigger profit maker, simple as that.

Bitcoin as the best asset in the world. Of course, but you must not forget the role of Real Estate as a companion to Bitcoin that is able to provide returns in the future. Both play an important role in investment, each investment has its own advantages and disadvantages. Bitcoin has several aspects that interest investors, but behind the advantages there are also substantial disadvantages. Bitcoin has no form, you can never hold Bitcoin with your hands because Bitcoin only exists on the internet.

Real Estate is one of the best investments for retirement and building wealth, one of the advantages of investing in Real Estate is that you can get real assets, you can see them and they can also be touched, apart from that they have intrinsic value. Real estate is also a necessity for everyone, you can make money on monthly or yearly rent. If you want to generate a steady source of income, Real Estate is the best asset for you.

[Kadal Ijo]

Why not, now more and more of the world's top companies are investing in bitcoin, the support of several exchanges such as crypto.com makes bitcoin more valuable and respected, almost every week I see UFC and crypto.com become official sponsors for almost 3 years.

Being a good asset does not mean that it will always grow and never decline. Even if the world economy also has a crisis cycle, so no asset or market is immune to it. Bitcoin was also hit hard by the economic crisis and war, losing over 80% of its value last year. It can be seen that everything has its cycle. Believe it or not, real estate is the best asset because its demand almost never stops and everyone needs it. Meanwhile, many people are still living normally without bitcoin. Frankly, you prefer bitcoin because of the higher return, but the high return is not enough to say it is the best asset.

[darkangel11]

No, I think real estate is the best asset. People will always need a place to live, so there will always be demand for it. While Bitcoin's value is impossible to calculate. We don't even not if it's overpriced or underpriced today. There's no good model for calculating Bitcoin's price. The worst case scenario is that Bitcoin is overpriced and it will return to previous levels because that's its objective value.

I see at least one problem with your reasoning. Real estate can't be bought just about anywhere. You need to do research, live in a stable country, make sure you won't get fucked by developers.
There were people like you, who thought real estate was the thing to put all their savings into, but the problem was these people were living in Ukraine before the war broke out.
I've seen videos of real estate agents showing properties around Kiev that were really beautiful. New houses with gardens hidden behind security fences at the edge of a forest. A year later Russians were ramming these fences with tanks.
I also know people who made down payments for new apartments and the developer took the money and disappeared, leaving only foundations.

Compared to that bitcoin is easy.

There are already a lot of sponsors for services like crypto now, moreover crypto has also entered the realm of sports and others so that Bitcoin has the potential to strengthen even more this year. And it is still very possible as long as large companies continue to invest in the crypto space and choose Bitcoin as the basic asset they will invest in. I also still believe that Bitcoin will continue to be the target of many people which makes the price stay in a better position with greater potential for increase.

[Joshapat]

Bitcoin is a digital asset that is growing, the global community continues to grow and is difficult to stop, the many rules that try to limit bitcoin have become an effective campaign and have made many people curious so they become new investors. there is no doubt that the future of bitcoin will be even better and worthy of being the best asset in the future.

We are on a bitcoin forum, and we are all invested in bitcoin, so there will be bitcoin bias here. But to be fair, real estate and tangible assets are a better choice than bitcoin. You are right, most of the rich are still not too interested in bitcoin, what they are most interested in is still real estate, stocks, and gold. Meanwhile, cryptocurrencies are receiving great interest from small capital investors like us who want to get rich with small investments. But that also becomes the advantage of crypto, as it is fair and gives opportunity to everyone.

Not necessarily because OP's question isn't framed very well. It depends on many things and as the first comment said real estate is probably more important as you need a roof over your head. But you could argue that someone who sold his apartment in 2010, bought Bitcoin and lived in a bus for a couple of years will probably say yes today.

What if you find a piece of art in the basement of your grandparents and it turns out that the painting is worth double digit millions? Or if a new Amazon or Tesla were to arise and you are one of the very first to invest in it?

At what aspect is OP looking here? Potential value appreciation? Capital mobility because you can take your Bitcoin wherever you want and nobody can stop you?

There are so many aspects to be considered and if you want to go for a lucky shot and want to see a 50x, some other investment is perhaps better. Building your own company could turn into the best asset you ever owned if you succeed.

To me Bitcoin is a must have part in a portfolio. Whether it is the best remains to be seen. If you are sitting on a 10,000x gain with your Bitcoin now, I would probably say that Bitcoin is the best in your case.

[traderethereum]

I consider bitcoin to be the best investment asset in the world and one I've come across because of the potential return over the long term that is greater than any other type of investment.
We can buy bitcoin with a small capital and expect to get a large return in the future and this is different from other types of investment.
Meanwhile, if we want to invest in other types of investment, we must provide sufficient capital, while not many people can start investing in that type.
But I don't put all my money in bitcoin because I still need fiat money to buy daily necessities so I still have some money ready.

[el kaka22]

I do, but millions don't and that is the situation. I can't really blame the situation on other people neither, it's obvious that we can't just expect the whole world to think of it as the best asset.

Plus, it depends on your life situation as well, someone that is already rich may not consider it as an issue, and may not invest into bitcoin at all, for that person the best asset is the way they got rich, however they got rich, it's better to keep reinvesting into that, it would make sense. For me, it is bitcoin but I can understand how life could take me away from crypto and make me invest into something else as well, that is why I wouldn't expect everyone to think like I do.
