I currently need some bucks so I would choose gold since the BTC and gold in the example just have same value.. Because gold is easier to sell everywhere Just my two cents. ![Tongue](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/tongue.gif)

Gold is more certain. If you want to risk more, bitcoin is good. Depends on what you like. Risky or not.

If I had a chance I would pick 50% gold and 50% bitcoin. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) If one of them would disappear I wouldn’t lose all of my placement of funds.. Or if one goes up it’s a great chance to exchange it for smth else.

To answer the OP's question, I would choose bitcoin if I'm looking at it as an investment with a long term horizon. I would choose gold if I was thinking about retirement soon. I think it all depends on your time horizon and what the overall purpose is.

well, this quiet hard in that side, bitcoin still raise from the deep to sky and in another side, gold is like god in real money I will choose gold after all ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) , cause BTC is still in minority, but i hope it will raise like real gold ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Good point. Very few people even care what bitcoin is, and even less people than that are gonna consider it a viable commodity in a natural disaster. When the power goes down and a person needs to trade for the basic necessities for survival, are people going to accept bitcoin or gold? well, in my opinion when world goes down and it will be survival time. most of people will trade the thing that can survive them like food, clothes, home, water. and gold have place in there, but when other thing have enough of them. Gold will be back to be internasional trade (we can call it luxury thing) and another example of luxury thing are pearl and silk (just come in my mind :| )

Until people realize Bitcoin is a superior store of wealth, and dump all their gold in favor of BTC. The value of gold will plummet whenever we hit that critical inflection point. This is a question of when, not if.

I would take Bitcoin over gold because it's easier to transfer and it's easy to divide to use it for micro transactions.

Picture this. You get approached on the street and offered a straight deal: walk away with Bitcoin or walk away with gold of the same value. 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??? Well simple choice. I would chose BTC even more so since I am 100% syre that the price will go skyhigh in the next two months. Gold reserves are huge, if someone is willing to drop the price he just has to sell a lot ( someone = country ).

You prefer gold although you seems to be quite assured that the ROI from gold will be much lower than what you'll get from Bitcoin. So may I ask you what is the reason for that?
