Bitcoin or Gold? What would you pick?

[rhino34567]

To me I would say bitcoin because you can lose gold.

[PsursV]

in present time for the best option is bitcoin, you can see that the price of bitcoin has decrease so much without any strong reason about bitcoin therefore i think that the price of bitcoin will not stay there and hope that the price of bitcoin is going to increase therefore to me the best option is bitcoin instead of gold.

It would be a mistake on your part. Better to have investments in half Bitcoin and gold. Price cryptocurrency rise clearly, but also need to protect themselves.

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

I prefer to use bitcoin, because it is more simple to carry and use, only with our smartphones can make transactions more quickly. Especially in the area or place that already support the use of bitcoin.

yeah it is really easy to make  bitcoin transactions right now, i think that it is going to be only easier so i would definitely pick bitcoin instead of gold

When we speak of picking between the two we should consider more on the investment side, gold and bitcoin are both investments are they have a different features and value at the current time but it would only base on the assessment of a certain investor what is more comfortable for him in making money.

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...

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???

even if many people picks bitcoins over gold, i like gold more, because bitcoin is way too risky now while gold is quite stable so i know that i will earn from it

You can definitely earn from it but you need to wait for a long time, whereas bitcoin allows us to make profits in quick time and that is the reason people choose bitcoin over gold.

That is completely true, bitcoin is more promising as it is only in the short period time we can already make money with a good trading technique. Gold will guarantee you profit in the future and it is more safer but the reward is not that high, gold investment is for the rich only.

Me either I'm preferring to choose bitcoin at all because if we are going to talk about investments with gold that is really hard to acquire.

And bitcoin is really promising at all and it is much easier to have investments to it and you can easily manage it too properly.

But they have both characteristics, they are increasing as the time goes by.

[Fatanut]

I think I'm gonna go with bitcoins. Gold has always been there ever since. It's been available for a long and always has been a fancy thing to own. Gold has been so fancy that if you wear it at the streets, you'll get held up by a criminal. Bitcoin on the other hand is something that is new. It hasn't been a thing to the majority of people just yet. Once that happens, I'm pretty sure that the price will rocket to the sky. Also, if you have tons of Bitcoins, people don't know that unless you tell them.

[chennan]

I mean, it's always nice to hedge your investments... But since everyone here is still relatively young, I think investing more of your capital into gold would be a wiser investment choice as your "savings account" asset that you can always rely on it retaining its value and offer more purchasing power in the future, while Bitcoin and other digital currencies that offer real promise might bring more ROI but is riskier obviously.

I'm more prone now, since I'm in my early 20's, to invest 15% of my income into assets, being 60% silver/gold and 40% btc/xmr... Then $100 a month into a Roth IRA.

To each is there own, but that's how I'm currently looking at my investment strategy so far.

[dezoel]

I think bitcoin is much more promising at a moment as price volatility allows us to make good profits in quick time which is never possible with gold.

bitcoins too risky? thats nonsense, if you are ready to wait enough time for a bitcoin price growth then you can make a lot of money with it way more than with gold

The bitcoin itself is secure. But the exchanges or the service providers are not secure. That is the problem.

this is the economics board so the risks that people are talking about here is the risk with the price and the volatility. not the bitcoin or even exchanges security. and this risk about the volatile price will remain with bitcoin as long as it is a small market compared to other things like gold.

Me too.  Gold has been around for centuries now.  People before use them to trade and they use them as money to buy their food and other commodities.  Besides we do not know how long bitcoin will last to the market though it gives us promising profit when you invest on it.  But it is still best if you could have them both.

If you are looking for higher profits in future then you should take risk by investing in bitcoin as price is expected to go higher in future and bitcoin has potential to give better profits in compare to gold.

This is one of the most common misconceptions that I have met here, i.e. if the Bitcoin market cap grows multifold (and consequently, the price of Bitcoin), it will somehow lead to a greater stability of prices. That's never going to happen...

The last price swings (even without the recent Bitfinex turmoil) only confirm that

is saving savety and longterm time i will choose Gold because liquid and can't reduse inflation
but short and growth my money iam chose bitcoin
because bitcoin can trade altcoin or fiat money, is price fluctuatif and high GAP price is every day

Bitcoin is always good in short term as we are not aware how long it will survive so its better to play with it till its alive and gold will take care of us in future.
