Bitcoin or Gold? What would you pick?

[Poorri]

Bitcoin because im really poor in gold anyway.

[Timetwister]

It depends on the amount, in absolute terms and in relative terms in comparison with the rest of my savings. But in general I'd get bitcoins.

[deisik]

Both Bitcoin and gold are going down right now (silver and oil too, for that matter), so what should we buy? We should buy dollars (or stick to)!!!

[MrBtcSenior]

Only bitcoin, I don't like having precious metals at home, some precious usb pendrives are better.

We should buy what we think will increase in value. It doesn't matter how they have recently done.

[Jerome?]

If I can keep both then I will keep both of them

[DaveSaldana123]

As of today, if course im going for Gold.

[GenieBTC]

Gold! It has been there ever since. It is in great value now, it will have a great value then.

[realbtcdealers4real]

BTC, all other forms of value are worthless.

[boumalo]

BTC, all other forms of value are worthless.

You know it's true right?

Think it is good to have Gold, Bitcoin and other precious metals and investments too like stocks, human capital; investing in yourself, your family, your well being is smart as well

[B1tc01n5]

BTC, because its objectively superior for myriad of reasons.

[miketonic]

I'd pick both. No reason to go all in on one asset.

[FuckItWhatever]

You cannot transport Gold. Pain in the ass to own, what an stress. BTC makes me feel nice and calm.

[phanhan]

Follow me, it would depend on the amount.
But in principle I would prefer bitcoin.
I would then buy gold and get some cash with half of it, and keep the remaining in btc to see where it goes.

Well to actually buy stuff with gold/silver is painful. Buying stuff with bitcoin is very easy. Even with that being said I think a portfolio that has a mix of bitcoin + gold + silver is healthy. Not a good idea to put all eggs in one basket.

[Hufflepuff]

Bitcoin would probably be more convenient to walk away with

[lightningmccoin]

Gold all the way..

[w4ssop]

In this precise moment I prefer BTC, it's value should increase exponentially soon.

[bookjoy]

Definitely gold, I'm sure bitcoin is going to have some difficult years in its near future.

I'd like to revisit this topic by making a simple yet effective statement. It doesn't make any sense to walk into a store and offer a 1 ounce gold coin ($1,200) in exchange for their goods simply due to the fact that it is pretty rare to spend that much money in one retail transaction. Gold may be a store of wealth, but makes absolutely no sense in the buying/selling of goods unless we go back to walking around with a gold dust pouch on our sides....."that soda will be 1/2 a pinch of yer gold dust please......actually wait a minute I have larger fingers than you....let me see your pouch I'll handle the pinching"
