investment option, can earn you a lot of money in short period of time, unless the stock market screws you over.
But though, gold has some sort of a value as well, its "real" not digital like BTC. It's something physical and also older than any other money there is today.
everyone can mine gold but currently almost all gold mine is depleted and the majority of it has been excavated entirely and at one point it will happen to bitcoin as well. Bitcoin is definitely one of the best investment currently however compared with gold it is definitely not the safest one
