If you want investment with great return, chose BTC.

With Bitcoin, I am not sure whether I will get any return or not.  Grin

You can't predict the future of Bitcoin, because it is relatively new. There is a good chance that the value of Bitcoin can go up by several times in the near future. But there is also a very significant chance that it can become worthless.

Gold is an asset which must be held for at least 10 or 20 years.
Yes but this is something for your kids..
You can buy them investment gold on day they are born, better than saving money for their school.
This is right approach.
If you want investment with great return, chose BTC.

Exactly... when I start saving up for my "future kids" school tuitions, I am basically planning on buying gold to hold my store of value over the 18 years or so I start saving, to protect me against inflation and the devaluation of the USD over the years.  I find this a lot more reliable than trying to put fiat money into some savings bank account that will gradually devalue over the years.  Gold keeps up with the times in terms of fiat and commands a higher price when fiat is devalued.

I agree with you here.  You have to also realize that silver is also a nice way to go about saving up as well, since generally all precious metals tend to command a higher price when fiat inflates and the general economy goes downward.  Since we are living in some crazy times right now, that's why I hold more of my assets in gold and silver than anything else... I like having bitcoins around in terms of speculative purposes, but precious metals are going to hold their value no matter what.

Essentially, you can use gold to invest in a long time, because gold is always valuable, but if you want to try to do business, then bitcoin is better than gold, because it is so much choice in doubling the bitcoin. I prefer bitcoin than gold today

Yes if you want to make quick profits then invest in bitcoin, and if you have a patience and if you can afford to wait for a longer period of time then you should invest your money into gold.

If you are investing in gold, then you must have the patience to wait for the long-term. Gold is an asset which must be held for at least 10 or 20 years. On the other hand, I am not quite sure about the Bitcoin. It may or may not give you a profit in the short term. Depends on a number of factors, including adoption and government response.

I have a strong feeling that bitcoin can give me good returns in future so I would choose to invest in bitcoin as the price is too volatile so I can earn a good profit from it.

Depending on bitcoin too long is not a wiser thing to do, as you said the price is too volatile anything can happen in future, either bitcoin can make you super rich or you loose everything.

Yeah investing in bitcoin is too risky and if you can afford to take that risk then you can surely invest into it, but I would choose gold as it is more stable and it can give me good returns in long term.
It is risky of course, but that will be good if you invest it and that it will rise, so you can have some profit later.
But gold is also very good but that is not rising so fast. If you want to make money fast you must use Bitcoin

I would choose for the bitcoin because the bitcoin has a really bright future a head and its also that, the bitcoin will get bigger in the future, I think the bitcoin is the future of all currency's.
Due to the world is gonna be a lot more digital the bitcoin is already a step closer to be a real currency.
yeah I agree with the digital world to come. but what you think. only bitcoin for digital currency ?
fiat would be more advanced with the digital version

You can never get benefited from the fiat, as the value of fiat would remain the same and you also need to consider the inflation rate, if the inflation rate is higher that will reduce the value of fiat.

Guys why are you involving fiat here, we are here talking about bitcoin and gold, so for me I would surely choose gold as I am using it since many years and I have more faith in gold.

Yeah at a moment I would choose bitcoin over gold as we are expecting halving in next couple of months, so it would be best investment to make at a moment in bitcoins.

Gold.

because gold can be deformed without affecting its value and more easily melted,,

same with you. I am more interested in gold :

value of gold is always up and strong enough to be immune to the crisis and inflation fold is not subject to tax  Grin

I choose bitcoin, because bitcoin have excess or a plus of the ease of running. Investment bitcoin is fairly easy because it can be performed remotely (online) from any investor resides.

Only by turning on a computer or smartphone and internet network, then you are ready to run this investment.

The investment value is also easily stored in a hard drive device used .
