Bitcoin or Gold? What would you pick?

[23dzmaz]

Bitcoin and gold are good for investment but i think bitcoin have a good future, so i pick bitcoin for now. But if you want the safe way, i think gold is a better choice than bitcoin.

[Lesterexon]

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...

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???

You cannot but gold and BTC into same basket.

Those are totally different things.

If i had to decide what i want to use the rest of my life i would pick the gold for sure because gold makes allot of things just so easy and off course bitcoins can also be used as a sort of gold but not everyone wants to accepts bitcoins and i know in this world everyone is willing to do everything for gold that is what i know!

They both have a great future, but the future we are talking here is ours, if we are not going to invest then we will not benefits of the success of gold or bitcoin. As an investor we have our own preference and our own capacity to choose what is best for us and for me I am more comfortable with bitcoin.

What would you pick that is not a strange questrion because there will come some point that you need to decide witch one you want to use for the rest of your life are you just keeping it with the gold or do you also want to make sure that you have enough bitcoins to make money with i dont know witch one i would pick because i am that young for a decision.

Gold have a good point then bitcoin when we looks from price. Gold has a stable price even in long duration up periodically. It is great for safest investment in long duration. But besides of that the fluctuations of bitcoin is so profitable if you are in trading bitcoin. It can give you many benefits.

If there was no bitcoins i would say i would pick the gold off course because we cant life without the gold but in this world for now there are so many things trough pay with and off course gold will stay number one but bitcoin is going to get on number two for sure and that is something no one can change bitcoins are doing really good this years.

There are allot of people who would say if i need to choose between these two the rest of my life i would pick the gold offcourse because everything is about the money but that is the main reason why there are to many stupid people into the bitcoin because bitcoins will be the future and the price will be that high that they are getting pore just with the cash.,

There is NOT really all that much tungsten filled gold out there.  Especially in coins.  Tungsten has the highest melting point of all elements and is also very hard, ref:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tungsten

The hardness and high melting point of tungsten make it unprofitable, for now anyway, for even the Chinese to make counterfeit gold.  They have made fake US$5.00 gold pieces (out of gold) as "numismatic" pieces (fake dates & mint-marks, which they would hope to sell for 10 times as much because it is a "rare coin").

IMO it will be years before we have to worry about counterfeit Gold Eagles.  Counterfeiting Gold Eagles would invite a Secret Service investigation (Eagles are Legal Tender), not that our Secret Service is, erm, aggressive about going after foreign counterfeiters (eg, N. Korea and their fake $100 bills).

But, the time will be coming soon that gold bars will be counterfeited more.  There is a YouTube video out there where an employee of Heraeus (Germany) caught a 500 gm gold bar salted with tungsten.

No I dont think so that it will used by everyone because there are still a lot of people that is waiting for a higher value and that is nice but you have to know that there will be more people that is using it. But there are still a lot of people that is using their own payment method.

I would prefer to pick up both. I think that gold is more stable, and its value is recognized worldwide. And I would want to put some money into bitcoin as well, because it has great potential to increase in value, despite the fact that it is more unstable.

Yeah it is going to be better if you are going to pick both. But for me, I would rather to choose bitcoin as I don't know how to get gold and I know that it is a very expensive investment at all. And many robbers are going to get interested to you if they are going to know that you are a gold owner or have a business related to gold.

[Kolder]

I would pick bitcoin rather.Bitcoins has the potential to grow ever year and every day and it is not like gold that is for long term.Bitcoin is good for both long and short term holds.So i preffered bitcoins

[metenjean]

in my college learn that tren about gold is always rising and it is good for investment , so do with bitcoin but it is more fluctuating than gold , if i must choose i will pick both

I think it would be quite difficult to choose both as an investment because you have to divide the capital that you got into 2 parts and then you have to choose which investment should you prioritize. because I'm sure you could not focus on two investments at once. I prefer to invest in bitcoin alone or gold alone

But isn't that what earns you profits? When you are trading you are still essentially dealing with two different assets. That is, selling one asset and buying another (e.g. converting dollars to bitcoins and vice versa)? So what's the difference if you stick to three assets instead of two, one of them being an intermediary in both cases (i.e. dollar)?

I think it could add flexibility to your investment strategies (after you get used to it) as well as increase your profit potential

Yep it is true that it has the potential to grow every year and every day but do not forget that it could also go the other way.  Bitcoin price now is lower compared to its price like a month ago.  The fact that bitcoin is more safe than having the real commodity like gold is essential as we will not have to be afraid of losing it.  Let us wish that bitcoin price will go up this coming months. 

[ultimatesky]

This is one of the most difficult question because what you really need in life is gold off course but you can do also allot of things with the bitcoins but in my opinion you should use bitcoins just for the investments and use the gold to life from because you earn that while you work.

yeah gold is a popular investment in the world. of course the price will not fall too steeper because the price has been retained by many of its users and the needs of the gold itself. so if you want to get a secure investment you could use gold. but if you want to benefit quickly you can use the investment in bitcoin

Bitcoin, because of the resources provided by its technology, like fast transactions and safety.

I agree with this. I also firmly believe bitcoins will still rise in value. The only way I'd pick gold over bitcoins would be if bitcoins would show clear signs of dropping down. Gold will always be valuable.

That is certainly true comrade, for the journey is still very long bitcoin. For now there are still many people who do mining bitcoin and I also noticed that the growth of the bitcoin has been very unusual and gives a very positive effects for the future of the bitcoin. So better utilize bitcoin first than gold. because Gold will still be there in the future and not necessarily the bitcoin will remain intact in the future, because the bitcoin not money or physical goods

[Adaleon]

If I could trade in all my bitcoin to equal value gold right now then it would be a difficult decision. I'd have to speculate about the future of bitcoin before I could give an honest answer.
