If you had to convert all your wealth to either Bitcoin or gold and keep it there for 10 years, which would you choose? Keep in mind the fact that Bitcoin has only been around for 5 years, and could be fundamentally different in any number of ways in 10 years.
I do not know how gold is doing but I know that Bitcoin is allot more popular so it has to be better then gold but maybe gold is also doing good.
I would choose Bitcoin over everything because that is what I am used to.

I can say 50 percent on bitcoin and another 50 percent on Gold , on gold side if it is investment we can buy paper gold like gold ETFs or E-Gold , in case of jewelry buy real gold when price is low and use it as needed.

If you invest 50:50 on gold and bitcon. In 20 years, the ratio will be 10:90. The bitcoin will rise faster.

if you can sure bitcoin rise faster than gold with ratio 10:90 why you choose 50:50 ? why not you invest at bitcoin 100% ?
i think you will get more money Roll Eyes
There is no sure thing I guess, we just live with our guts, gold will surely give us profit but how much can we invest and for sure it would not give us more profit when bitcoins will have the same success.

Bitcoin will win in long run as gold is very stable, and price volatility of bitcoin allows us to make good profits regularly which is not at all possible with gold.

If you are a clever person you are using both but not both for the same things because the best thing you can do with the bitcoin is investing and gold is something where you need
to pay with you know, If you dont know where to use bitcoins for dont do it they are to expensive for that.

i think it's depending about your work, your hobby, and your focus.
for me im never use gold as investment, gold is "jewelry"  , if im buying gold, i buy it just for give it to my girlfriend or my mother.

Yeah gold is good while using it in a physical way, but the benefits of gold are limited, while bitcoin offers wide range of benefits and biticoin will surely take over gold in long run.

bitcoin has much more potential future growth than gold. i think everyone, or at least nearly everyone agrees with that. the only difference is that with gold you have the guarantee that it's still here after 100 years. with bitcoin that remains to be seen. we don't even know if it's still the leading digital currency after 10 years. but if bitcoin lives up to its expectations, then i have no doubt about bitcoin being successful and still leading after 10 years.

I think very well to choose both, however, I think that bitcoin still have a great opportunity to make a business of gold. besides there are so many ways in which the internet can make bitcoin we have to grow, but on the other hand is possible if you really want to invest in the long term, it may be better to take the gold from the bitcoin.

There are multiple benefits attached with bitcoin, as it can be used an currency and also for shopping, its good when it comes to money transfer and above best as an investment for the future.

Bitcoin will surely dominate the future and people will treat this as the real gold, for me gold should be valuable that could help not only the life of the one person but that would give the benefits of the majority and we can only have that with bitcoins.

Recently, Bitcoin joined gold as a popular method of hedging against the volatility and we Brexit illustrated this trend.

It is obvious. The people of the value of money transfers in those assets where there is no dependence on the current events. Brexit not for a couple of days. So people use metals and now Bitcoin.
I believe that Bitcoin is to become more than the gold. Gold served as money in the past. Now think of a more flexible product (paper, electronic money). Bitcoin will grow dramatically, when it becomes so with the help of which carried large international transactions.

always gold over bitcoin because it is a better investment

It depends, if you are holding gold then for sure gold is much better than bitcoin for you.
But for those people who are holding bitcoin of course we are going to say bitcoin is better.
All are better but the only problem we cannot do both investment is due to our financial condition, majority does not have the money to invest with gold so they prefer to invest only with bitcoin.

You are right, both of them are good if you are just going to have them both then that is a good thing to have an investment with bitcoin and gold.
But we need consider.
Invest what you afford only to lose and gold is hard to lose.
In my opinion, only when I become filthy rich will I will invest with gold, I am a kind of person that does not want a sure money without the risk in investing because I find it boring, with bitcoins we are playing with the real market and we could be pioneers when it will gain massive adoption.

If only we can accumulate gold for a small dividend , I think people here will now have a different aspect about which is better for investment.

Since bitcoin can be buy for even a small piece of it out from the whole, people mostly preferred bitcoin over gold.

That is a different thing to get gold for a small dividend and you should become a real miner out of it if you want to get gold with that quantity.
Unlike bitcoin we can just mine a portion of bitcoin with the use of mining rig.
And it is really better to use bitcoin in online purchasing, but I'm considering gold and bitcoin is really different.
There is really a big different because gold is physical and bitcoins is not, being a digital currency as bitcoin is it would be movable compared to gold so that means you can make many transactions with bitcoin that would help you maximize your income.
