Bitcoin or gold? ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Very easy option. I will choose bitcoin "for now". I see the future of BTC in next years will come in a good shape.

Gold is always good for long term investment and bitcoin is always good for short term investments. You can decide based on your needs.

In my view both bitcoin and gold are good in long term investment. I prefer both as I diversify my investment across many different investment sectors for a risk controlled returns. As of now, bitcoin is better investment than gold.

Bitcoin is not supported by any governments so for and only one or two just saying they may or may not but currently bitcoin prices are moving up or down purely based on the people sentiment, demand and supply. If some one spread good news about bitcoin then prices will shoot up and with bad news prices will come down in super fast. So for long run I suggest to go with gold then bitcoin but bitcoin can be used for short term profits.

Its good think if you choose both in your investment portfolio. But bitcoin you should watch out prices more regularly to avoid bigger loses.

For now holding bitcoin quite risky rather than you hold a gold ( gold price always increase year by year )
This year gold price is drop 20% and look not want to move up. I think bitcoin is better because bitcoin price is fluctuating so you take a benefit from this situation Gold maybe up, but bitcoin has been going along with gold prices as well. so im not too sure for where bitcoin will be in the future.. still gold is security.

Definitely both. Anyway, a reply here got me thinking, what would happen if a country bought a huge market share of Bitcoin? Like 5 million BTC. What would be the effect of that? And why it didn't happen so far? we know governments don't like it because of tax evasion and illegal activities, but maybe they just see Bitcoin as a joke?

I don't think that it is very rare. I am having somewhere around BTC10 in my wallets, and also I am having a small number of gold bullion coins in my bank locker. Some of my friends are also holding bullion coins (either gold, silver or platinum), as well as either Bitcoins or Litecoins in their wallets. And my cash flow is not that good.

Gold will always be worth more as it has other uses then currency.

Yes gold is always good for long term investments and bitcoin is always good for short term profits. I invest in both but less in bitcoin and more in gold

You don't have to pick one or the other. You can have both, gold has a present value. And Bitcoin has a growing future.

You can say that gold has a "permanent and stable" value, rather than a "present" value. I don't think that gold will become worthless anytime in the near future, and the demand seems to be going up. I am not sure about the future of Bitcoin. It's value can go up, or it can become quite worthless in a matter of a few months.

in the event that bitcoin will grow so far that will surpass gold, what would be the point of having gold? it would be pointless

It's not about being worth more. This is irrelevant when you start allocating percentages of your savings into different investments. I see investing into gold predominantly because of the security. Gold has lasted us 5,000 years and it will probably be here in another 5,000. That's the point of investing in gold - security!
