I will choose gold as I am a non risk taker and I believe in stable profits so I think gold can help me in long run, I don't want to risk my money by investing into bitcoins.

Sell your fiat cash to buy gold. And then sell your fiat cash again to buy Bitcoin. Invest in both gold and bitcoin. In this way, you can lower your risk as well.

I would invest 50/50 in both the products, as I have faith in both of them and If I have option of choosing both then why would I go with a single one.I want to make profits from both.

For me diversifying is a standard thing to do. It would make no sense to go all in when you deal with money.
Gold seems to be a stable asset so yes i buy gold.
But bitcoin is the asset with the most potential so obviously i would invest around 25% also in bitcoin.

The rest would go to savings /low risk bonds.

That is the right thing to do, invest in multiple products that will reduce risk, and if one product fails we still have hope from the other one that it will help us in recovering losses.

Bitcoin is money, and many invest in bitcoin expecting rise because they believe it is worth more then gold..This is so wrong. Price rise will eventually stop. And bitcoin will be used as money and will be stable, or it is doomed.
Gold is already proven and everything about gold is already said!

Bitcoin will never be used as a form of money. It will be used as an investment asset. Because, it is more similar to gold and other forms of bullion than the fiat currency. Bitcoin is protected against inflation, due to the controlled supply principle. As a result of this, the value of Bitcoin will increase as time progresses. Who will trade Bitcoins for commodities, if he knows that the value of the Bitcoin is going to increase in the near future?

Most of the hedge fund managers and investment experts will advise you to put 80% to 90% of your savings in low-risk assets (such as gold, platinum, United States treasury bonds.etc). But they suggest that you can invest some 10% to 20% of your savings in various high-risk assets, such as Bitcoin and the HYIPs. There is no harm in investing a little bit in BTC.  Grin
I see here great problem, people don't distinguish investment from value.
All values today are presented in old and some other assets , so GOLD is value stores like silver and other precious metals.
Bitcoin is money, and many invest in bitcoin expecting rise because they believe it is worth more then gold..This is so wrong. Price rise will eventually stop.
And bitcoin will be used as money and will be stable, or it is doomed.

if you never dare to take a risk you're going to be at that level. you're not going to rise to the richer. you must get out of your comfort zone. and tries to greater risks. certainly profit will be higher and accelerate your getting rich
you can try bitcoin

Gold started at 1040 USD and today it's around  1240
Bitcon started at 400 dollar this year and today it's around 407

For me gold is not only better but also a more stable asset.
Yes people involving in bitcoin with main reason to get more money from it.
Everybody are blinded with previous success and expecting more rapid rise..
Gold is more secure and stable, and there is no chance to lose on value!
 And if dropping in price you know this is just a shakeout.


Yes gold is the most trusted product worldwide and bitcoin is unstable and difficult to trust as anything is possible with its price,who wants to make safe investment will always choose gold.

Surely , i will choose bitcoin as well because i can looking for bitcoin by free way. Grin

Thats how easy it is to get bitcoin,since gold is hard to get i will also choose bitcoin.even though its fairly new bitcoin is used by many people with different level unlike in gold only the rich people have them.
yeah the differences were already very visible with the ease of a way to get both.
You can be very easy to get a free bitcoin there are many ways to get bitcoin
while to get the gold Very difficult you have to find a place that has the potential to find gold. after working hard not necessarily you got 1 gold grains mate

i will always choose both not only one to put all my money in.
i choose bitcoin because it has the potential of growing big and becoming the worlds currency and giving me a good profit with the big price rise

but also i choose gold because it is much more stable than bitcoin and i can save money that way and be sure that it will keep its value.
yeah the potential and the possibility of bitcoin to become popular currency is very large. the dream is likely to materialize therefore you must purchase bitcoin.
Gold has stable market prices. if you want to invest that have a small risk you can try to invest in gold

I would choose gold as it is easy for other people to notice that you can buy anything with it even if you are in a 3rd world country.
But in bitcoin still a lot of people dont know about it and its hardly recognized.

I feel like gold and silver will work in more places. If you need the services of a tech/software guy you probably will want bitcoin, for nigh everyone else I think Gold and Silver are better. I also agree that moving capital from one area to another, Bitcoin is better. If you are staying put, gold and silver. Both have their uses.

I would choose bitcoin simply because , having full control on whenever to use it , how to handle it and can monitor it on a regular basis without help of anybody else and the fact that I do travel alot from few countries.

Gold is good but bitcoin is very innovative product to invest in and it will overtake gold in future for sure, the only thing is that we should give some time to bitcoin to grow.

1) How much time do you think it will take bitcoin to overtake gold?

2) What will be the driving force to increase bitcoin's market cap which is currently 0.086% of gold's to >100%

3) Where is the $7,358,928,259,382 going to come from that is required to be invested in bitcoin to exceed Gold's market cap?

Looking at the history of both I would choose to invest in gold as I don't want to experiment with my money and my investments, I will play safe and invest into gold.
for history bitcoin was 7 years old then their historynya still very short mate. gold certainly has a better history because they are thousands of years old. we must look at its potential

Yeah the bitcoin holds better potential in compare to gold, and at a moment if you invest in bitcoin then you can expect a better profits in future as price would be higher in future.

Gold is good but bitcoin is very innovative product to invest in and it will overtake gold in future for sure, the only thing is that we should give some time to bitcoin to grow.
