I would choose bitcoin over gold because its alot easier to use ,if you need to pay someone online, sending gold isn't feasible but bitcoin is made for that kind of thing. If you're looking to invest long term then either is a good choice. but for trading and such i definitely recommend bitcoin.

i pick bitcoin over gold. they are both can be mined. they're both avaible virtually and physically, they're also both a good investment but bitcoin is easier to mine compare to gold so i choose bitcoin
I think if you do choose the gold route, its better to invest in the notes that actually are the mining companies. Since they have combined assets outside from just to mine gold, they mine copper etc as well.

Seeing a $100 price point difference can hurt a lot depending on how many coins you have and afford that loss difference.

I still think gold is still a viable solution until the dollar really collapses. Its been a ever growing steady commodity that off-sets the bitcoin rates when they are super volatile.

I don't think that its a good idea to choose bitcoin over gold. In the long run gold is safe and the price of gold will be increased. There are no restrictions on gold and its easy to use, buy and sell the gold as it is accepted universally but in case of bitcoin this is not the same. There are just bunch of people who are using bitcoins and no one can predict the future of bitcoins. I will go for gold against bitcoin to secure my money

I think Bitcoin has more potential ... I have to go with bitcoin on this one
Yeah, I admit bitcoin has more pontential then a 1000 year old commodity. But, its the price that we all want some permanent stablization if anything esp for me.

Well these investments are quite good for long term appreciations but you need quite a lot of money in investing either in land or property. But for investing in bitcoin or gold you no need of so much of investments. You can diversify your invests to reduce your loses in case of any negative trend in the market.

I'll go for GOLD. Gold can be easily liquidated just by anyone in cases of emergency. Unlike Bitcoin, not everyone accepts bitcoin in my country, not everyone knows about it and if my wife needs to sell it because i'm in the hospital she needs to ask for my password, username and site's where I store my coins then exchange to local currency.

I own both. I own gold, silver in terms of bars and coins, as well as some in my investments portfolio (managed, I didn’t pick them). I have a few bit coins as I was an early adopter. I mined a few a long time ago. I use them to pay for random things on the internet which I really don’t care about. The money I never figured out how to get out easily, so I just use that to pay for things like kickstarter and other items which take them instead of using cash.

land is better nowaydays, you can build everything on top of it and if you're land is in a good position they can be worth a ton in the future houses with the current crisis are depreciated heavily and you can use it only for rent, or sell it again for a better price

House or land are good properties to be invested. House or land price never fall down but always go higher. But you will find that land or house are hard to sold when you need money for emergency. For emergency i would choose gold because it's easy to exchange into FIAT. Bitcoin is like gold, but with more price fluctuation and it's also harder to sold in emergency.

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=m6GiC8dqN9AWe 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??? If I were asked, I'll probably choose both because both of them have a big potential in the near future and they are both good investment. But in terms of convenience, I'll choose bitcoin. I can easily obtain bitcoin and can use it almost anywhere(eg. Gambling, buying stuffs etc.) but overall , I'll still choose them both

Yes for real estate investments need a lot of money. I will go for gold investment because even though slow increment but for long term it will be a good option.

I have heard many peoples commited sucide or heavy life damage when bitcoin price crashed from 1000$ but that's what we all know about mtgox and what have they did..and this clearly says bitcoin is still at development stage so price is much volatile at curten situations so its better I go for the gold if I don't want to risk my money
