Even though the risk is much higher in bitcoin rather than in gold because bitcoin is newer in the market.
gold can also be digital, but i agree gold can not be used like bitcoin and everything need to be as fast as possible today and gold isn't that fast like bitcoin, so definitely a plus for bitcoin
I consider that trading physical gold involves a high risk because it's dangerous in real life.
Bitcoin sometimes is more anonymous and this is another advantage of bitcoin comparing with gold.
Both are risky to invest in but since golds holds more and a more steady value Gold is my choice.
If bitcoin will reach a point where it is not owned by so many whales the value of bitcoin will grow, because the price will be more. The whales at this moment make bitcoin too risky.
