Bitcoin or Gold? What would you pick?

[José Arcadio Buendía]

If i had to choose between these two i would use only the gold off course but if i had to choose to keep them both i would say we need to spent more gold and invest with more bitcoins off course.

Although bitcoin and gold have a lot of similarities they also have a lot of differences, that is why I see gold more as a store of value, while I see bitcoin more as an investment

both ,but prefer gold
i use bitcoin only if I gamble ..
and it was free bitcoin, never buy

I would go with Bitcoin all day because that is what I know and what I am familiar with, I do not know much about gold.
It would just not be smart for me to invest in gold.

some people thinks gold as a store of value , but you know there a lot of people use bitcoin to store value too as the price will continue to rise , and sometimes they think both store of value and investment too.

it is really hard actually to understand bitcoin but so far people should pick bitcoin with all advantages.

You can invest some part of your money in gold, simply buy and keep it safe in your locker and in future when you see higher price you can sell it and gain good profits.

it's too much hassle to go and buy gold and store it in your safe. especially if you buy high quality gold bars from certain companies. they charge you a higher rate compared to what the market price is. also, here i need to show id and they need to make a scan of it in order to get your gold. no id, no gold.

[angryswamp]

i think most of the people would pick bitcoin in order to make money over time with it, gold is a worthless investment option right now and people should be using it

Can you explain why gold is a worthless investment right now?

Its up about 30% year to date with many people predicting a new bull market with the price hitting $5k -$10k by 2020

I would say 99% of the people in this thread have never even owned a gold coin or bar so not really in a positon to make an informed comment.

Exactly, and I think gold is safer investment in compare to bitcoins, as we are sure that even if its price doesn't touches to the moon, it will never disappear and always show its presence.

yeah, gold is a way safer investment option right now i think, though bitcoins are better for making money over time

[skyway1]

i will pick bitcoin because bitcoin is very useful and bitcoin is available in everywhere in the all corner of the world and we can use bitcoin as investment and it can be hold for high price and then after high price we can get a good profit from bitcoin.

[PieCrafted]

Expect the higher prices from both in the future. But the question is which can prove to be a better investment option and Everyone believes that Gold has more bright future as compared to the Bitcoins as the users of Bitcoins are very less as compared to that of the Gold. BTC

And that is why i believe BTC is more valuable now i would keep them 10% / 90%.
BTC users are rare to gold users but slowly it will change on exchange like comex you trade paper gold while in BTC echange you trade DIRECT BTC.
Its possible to get fake gold why it is not possible to get fake BTC ofc people can steal you BTC easier bit not that much easier when you keep it on cold storage.BTC is more useful in every day whiule in case of war better to have gold. (medicine guns food is much more valuable than gold then )
For future more attractive is BTC now market is small comparing to gold.

But bitcoin has more higher potential to increase in price much more and gold has much low potential so bitcoin is better to select as its value will increase.

I would prefer to invest in both, gold and bitcoin, to minimize my risks and I'm sure either of one will perform well in future, which certainly will help me in getting the best returns on my investments.

That's right , both are good investments.

I will pick first gold between these two. Because gold is  very trusted investment for long time in the  world however nobody knows  what happens to bitcoin after few years.

Gold is somewhat have guarantee to last long since its a natural mineral that can be found on earth which is  really hard  to make it disappear even  on how many years to pass but also to bitcoin  its has also a potential even its a crypto currency that it would increase it price in the future. If i have  much money then  i would choose them both in long term investments.

[dmarine]

Bitcoin is better for  me it is just faster in using  and also can be selled  without any problems.  Gold need vertifications  and other stuff  for sell.

If I remember correctly Bitcoin is technically more finite than gold is because of the potential for most other asteroids to have gold deposits within them from the creation of the solar system, however the economics of it are a different story entirely. For now both are good long-term investments (I'd say), however Bitcoin is something that needs to be watched a bit more closely when it comes down to it. gold will likely be stable for a long time.

Right, just keep the gold and you will get profit in time. as time passes by the value of gold are increasing, its a good asset if you want to secure your future. while in bitcoin you dont have to wait because even now you can make money using it like in trading.

[Xenophoto]

I would pick gold if I'm in a place where people are interested in Gold and it can be sold easily. Unfortunately, my place is a third world country and people don't show any interest with Gold. So I think I'm just going to stick with Bitcoin since Bitcoin will always increase its value over time. Both are good investments in the long run but Gold cannot be dumped easily whereas in Bitcoin, it's one click away.

for a third world person bitcoin is much better choice. because he can sell his bitcoin through the web from all over the world.. but for gold you  need to sell that in your local jewelry shop which is hard in most third world places. but bitcoin is not. you can buy/sell bitcoin while setting your home and get local currency in your bank.

[Orion25]

Gold will never lose in price by as much as the price may fall bitcoin. A kilogram of gold, even a hundred years is one kilogram, and bitcoin was $ 1 then became $ 600. And who can guarantee that tomorrow or a year later, he again falls to $ 1?
