Bitcoin or Gold? What would you pick?

[logictense]

The point for understanding what would be profitable is related time span: say you and i have $1000 dollars to invest, back in Feb. 2013. I put my money into bitcoin (100 BTC, $11 per one coin). You put yours into silver (~$30/oz, or about 33 oz). For today i made about $60,000. You lost about $130.

[ReBoRn]

I would pick both.

Picking both is good decision but I believe Gold is still much better then Bitcoin for investment

[cryptomad]

If you do the same with January 1st 2014 I am even but you lost 50%

I prefer Bitcoin.

I recommend this article http://www.coindesk.com/timothy-coles-2-million-gold-mine-bitcoin/ when Timothy Coles want to sell his profitable gold mine for BTC

I think BTC will survive long term. Paypay will process BTC together with other payment processors.

i would have to go for gold because its a real item i can hide and at anytime BTC can just vanish or corrupt

[thejaytiesto]

Gold because it's more solid, but Bitcoin wins when it comes to hidding it. Owning gold is a pain in the ass. It could be all stolen unless you have it on sight permanently and it could be a big problem trying to cross borders with it.

[Supercrypt]

at this time i will go for bitcoin

[BTCbuisinessman]

very true about the money laundering scheme but gold will stand up if bitcoin ever just loses value

You can have your Gold in a Bank safe which is kind of safe of you can have it in a bank oversea or in Australia which is super safe

I want golden jewellery in a form of blockchain;)

both, plus a few kg bars of silver, cause why the fuck not. Gold and silver are essentially oil plays, in that it cost a shit load of energy to mine and refine each ounce.... as oil continues to get more expensive, and ore grades continue to decline, the cost has to keep going up. BTC because decentralization is my political philosophy

You are not the only one feeling like that

Gold is very safe because it is hard to mine, has many applications and has been a store of value and medium of exchange for thousands of years

Bitcoin can just vanish and corrupt... No it can't, your security and maintainance could be bad, you are the bank with bitcoin

Gold is a store of value. BTC can be used daily.

[Darkmatter12]

I would choose bitcoin any day, any night.

[Divinespark]

Now gold

[gbenta]

I take Bitcoin, because I can do faster exchange.

[kl8847]
