Bitcoin or Gold? What would you pick?

[umaOuma]

I would prefer to invest in bitcoin at a moment as it can give me some good profits in coming months and I will invest only because of the halving.

[socks435]

even you are still choosing gold i will stay at bitcoin because bitcoin has fast movement from the market than gold..
To gold it needs more years to see that the price is increased its a long term investment.. so its still better to choose bitcoin..

gold is good when it comes to an long term investment, bitcoin can take care of us in short term, so if you are looking for quick profits then invest in bitcoin at this stage.

I would go for the gold without any doubts to be honest, I think that gold is a very good investment and it will always remain its worth without any doubts.

But maybe in recent months or this year people who invested in bitcoin could make more but gold is more stable.

(Cross-posted, but an important article for learning about a neglected but important role for gold):


Gold's price has been rather slow in the past few days/weeks.  There is a real case to be made for taking a longer term view.

Dr. Antal Fekete (interviewed just below) is one of the world's top analysts re gold.  Fekete joins others who see a HUGE increase in the price of gold.  He also has very negative things to say about negative interest rates ("NIRP"), the below is a bit hard to churn through, but well worth it:

I will pick up bitcoin over gold.I believe in taking risks.I believe in bitcoin, do you ?

Yeah investing in bitcoin is good thing and every investment is risky, so why should not take that risk with bitcoin? as halving can offer us some good profits.

yeah every investment has a risk of gold, real estate, stocks, everything is at risk. but the level of risk in every investment is different. if gold is certainly risk losing quite small because of the movement of gold prices tend to be stable
different from that bitcoin has a very rapid price movement :-/ your choice

If we go back to bits of gold it means all trust has failed in world trade, which is medieval dark age type stuff and hey some want that blowing stuff up in the middle east.  Most of us dont not even the politicians so I imagine if bitcoin doesnt succeed as virtual transfer of value something else will and many think it must be related to gold but its impossible it will verify value like bitcoin does; it'll always come back to trust. Possibly bitcoin is unique and guaranteed to succeed in its own purpose.

If given a choice to walk away with either Bitcoin or gold of equivalent value, what would you pick?

Asians and Westerners were asked in Taipei in Chinese and English if they would take Bitcoin or gold home with them that day, and the answer might surprise you...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m6GiC8dqN9A

We just shot a video outside the Taipei 101 skyscraper area here and gave people a chance to answer if they would walk away with either Bitcoin or gold- and why.

If you were approached and were offered the same deal, would you walk away with Bitcoin or gold in your pocket, and why???

with so much fake gold out there, I would walk away with bitcoins. Chances are the gold was tungsten filled

I agree.. You will also risk your life bringing the gold in your pocket. I would rather walk with Bitcoin too.

[goinmerry]

I will still pick bitcoin at its current value now, i don't how to use gold because I see it just a thing with no value in daily transactions. With bitcoin, I can earn through trading and I can transact with low cost having it safe and fast.

nice JOKE  
no vaue in gold ? are you stup*d friend ? please be reasonable to compare something, you must learning again about diffirent bitcoin and gold, don't judge gold if you not know about gold

anyway your username is Goldcoinminer  

Calm down. Maybe he havent tried having a gram of a gold or more and tried to pawn it or sell it. You might want to go get a gold then try to sell so you would know that rock got a value

Of course any sane person would not think of walking around with gold in their pocket, you can though safely walk around with an encrypted paper wallet in your pocket(BUT with a back-up at somewhere safe), so even if you end up losing it, you can get hold of your coins through your back up, you can't do that with Gold.

lol, what the hell is fake gold. don't buy from the black market maybe! as long as you purchase gold from a legit place you don't need to worry about it being fake, it happens when you buy from a shady place instead.

Of course there are lots of gold in the black market and also fake gold, just buy to the most trusted people if you are planning to buy gold.
Or buy to the pawnshops that sells gold and that is a very legit and your doubts will be gone there.

Gold is only worth because it is already a guaranteed profit if you keep for a longer period of time. However, with bitcoins in your hand, you can make use to utilize your earnings by doing business in the internet. You can trade and earn money in a short run.

The best thing about bitcoin is it can be used as a currency and investment too, with bitcoin you can shop, transfer money and also earn some money on regular basis.

I see bitcoin is more useful than gold in terms here in cyber world since I am favorable for digital currency because of its uniqueness. BTC is easy to operate and does not require any of those like currency connected to government. I agree that we should only buy to those trusted sellers, for me it is a very important thing.

Bitcoin seems to be good at a moment, but If you want safe investment then you should invest your money in gold to earn stable profits in future.

I love them both but for now I would choose the bitcoin, just because of the fact that the bitcoin is gonna rise to a higher amount very soon this year.
You do not need a lot of patience for the bitcoin compared with the gold.

Yeah but you need to hold it for long time if you want to make good profits, but in compare to gold you can earn it fast as gold will really take time to give you returns.

bitcoin and gold is pretty good. but I still prefer a bitcoin, because we can multiply bitcoin if we have a special ability, in addition to collect bitcoin does not require very much power
