Topic: Bitcoin or gold? - page 15. (Read 984457 times)

Personally I'd choose bitcoin right now, because it has all the characteristics of gold, plus portability which is something that gold does not have. Nor does it have divisibility. You can't divide gold pieces easily. Just a matter of time before bitcoin becomes the digital gold.

Many people have been comparing Bitcoin to digital Gold. But that is not the way they are trading, in terms of asset classes. When gold rises (like in recent months), Bitcoin sometimes moves with it and sometimes not.  In other words, the market participants are largely independent.

In that case, you can think of Bitcoin as actually a diversification from Gold. Splitting your money and buying both will reduce your overall volatility exposure.

Gold is always better for me because i can feel the value when i'm holding it. In case with bitcoin i can see numbers on my screen but i'm not feeling anything.

Gold and bitcoin is different, if you want an assurance that you will really get back your profit then you can choose gold because the market of bitcoins is volatile and it was drastically moving every minute while gold's value is still growing but not too fast just like how it decreases its value.

Yeah, gold is for saving. If you want to increase your balance and become wealthier, you need to invest your money in bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies. They can make you rich in a short time if you know which coins you need to buy and hold. It is better to buy bitcoin than to buy gold

Bitcoin and gold.. Two contemporary safe haven assets are a lifesaver during times of economic crisis.

But if your goal is just to save the wealth, then, gold will always be the first choice as a safety net to retain wealth assets

In choosing bitcoin or gold, we should consider the following:
Gold has proven its existence and no doubt about it. It is very easy to track with as it has a global tracking system that helps to preserve the value of the investment because it is very hard to fake or steal.
Unlike bitcoin, Bitcoin is very hard or impossible to track because it is originally designed to evade government entities. It is untraceable and highly-encrypted. It is also the preferred digital currency of choice for online business and transactions.

To play safe, I will invest both in gold and in bitcoin so that whatever happens in one of these two, I will surely have one left for me to start a new.

I prefer to invest in bitcoin because it is very promising and gives me many advantages but if about investment security then gold is more secure

I go to both

Gold and Bitcoin are equally good, but the risk of Bitcoin Investment is greater than Gold. but the chance to make a big profit better than Gold. Maybe for the Modern people will try to invest in Bitcoin, but if Traditional people have definitely prefer Gold.

Gold is a better option because traditional and more people believe in it or need to diversify investments can not rely on one product because it would be too risky to invest in one product in the long run. Bitcoin transactions do not involve banking and government. But the price is determined by the market itself. In addition Bitcoin digital currency is issued in limited quantities. Unlike Dollar and other currencies.
While in Forex Trading, gold is the most favorite instrument. Because of the chart of price movements, world gold prices always tend to rise.

I think 70% for Bitcoin and 30% for Gold.

bitcoin or gold is a good investment, but for me they are suitable for different purposes investing is bitcoin, and gold as a savings account

I will still choose both, I choose Bitcoin and also Gold. So I will invest in both. Because for me both are very profitable for long-term investment for years.

I posted a topic here early this morning on the speculation of a rather odd alternative; but nearly zero risk of loss of value; with possible large upside gains.

See if you find it interesting; as an alternative to Gold.

As Gold will certainly not 5x or 10x your money in the next 10 years.

Heres the Topic

Interesting opinion, I think we need a longer time to say that crypto soon dominates the world, I'm sure that although Google, Facebook and a lot of media are banned bitcoin and ICO then it just hurt them, and this becomes a great opportunity for online advertising to get the cake they vomited.

Gold can be taken only where it is physically available, crypto currency is extracted wherever the Internet is available, the gold liquidity process directly depends on the method of its physical delivery, the security of which is not guaranteed, you can transfer the crypto currency anywhere in the world absolutely safely, instantly and at any Times of Day.

 gold and land...  blockchain is already in massive use in chinese companys or few in west. bitcoin people just wrote every day 100+ positive but false articles about: somewhere in world is someone investing to bitcoin or other..  also here thermos leave just positive threads about bitcoin.. about other crypto coins he leave also negative talk.. what a cunt...

Things we should understand when investing is risk-ready, and bitcoin is a very risky investment, but for me with bitcoin investing it gives you the opportunity to get rich in no time and I'm sure that bitcoin will continue to grow compared to gold.
