I would choose for the bitcoin its getting bigger everyday.
Plus the price will also go higher in the next few months.

We just need to wait and be patient, invested long term in the bitcoin.

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.

Both. Never keep all the eggs in the same basket!

The issue with gold is that it's hard to store, easy to lose on thiefs or government ban.

And if you store it in bank, it will sink with it.

Bitcoin is the most independant investment.

Also very hard to move. Try to leave your country with 1M$ gold and 1M$ BTC you will see.

1) Gold is not hard to store at all, a £26,000 gold bar is the size of a smart phone.  You can easily stash this away in your home, I have of $60k worth of gold stored in something smaller than shoe box.

2) A government ban on gold has never been effective, only a tiny % has ever been handed in in by the public.  If a ban did happen would you just walk to your local bank and hand it over?  If you would you are just as likely to hand over your bitcoin if they ban it.

3) With regard to thieves, how many people have been hacked, scammed or lost all their bitcoin in dodgy bitcoin exchanges.

4) "Try to leave your country with 1M$ gold and 1M$ BTC you will see."  Bitcointards love to quote this bullshit statement.  In reality how many members of this forum (a) have 1M$ or greater  (b) have any need to flee their country with their entire wealth.  Its a make believe insignificant scenario.

that was exactly my point few pages ago, but they insist on arguing that bitcoin can go to zero while gold no

i think they are not understanding how the controlled supply work, the possibility of bitcoin(the strongest and the only real crypto currency) going to zero is very slim

i choose gold. Gold can be deformed without affecting its value.

Gains or plus the value of the investment gold is gold that can be transformed without affecting its value.

So your gold and then converted into jewelery such as necklaces, bracelets, earrings and rings will not change its value. So for women who invest in gold would be more fun because you can also look with more style and flair.


Yes because of this it seems gold is the winner here.
It can be used for finance but also for fashion. A double use which is just great.

People who have invested their money in gold in the past and has gained good returns would surely go with gold and they would  never choose any new born baby in front of a giant, so its better to invest money in gold.

Gold, hands down.

Bitcoin is for gambling/trading volatility on steroids, not a serious long term store of wealth.

I think its a long term wealth, its just how you look about it.
You can look at it from different aspects but I would choose for the bitcoin.

i prefer bitcoin becouse gold may drop his value and bitcoin is our future.

Bitcoin can be the future but right now it's not.
I do hope it will come to that but untill then i go for gold, since it is more safe.

In what regards is gold safe???
I mean, check the %s BTC has gained since it got attention of everyone, and Gold had been already here for decades, but it's still under devastating devaluation...

We cannot be so sure about the future of bitcoins, as the future is uncertain and unpredictable, and bitcoin is a new technology and people don't have that faith in bitcoins as they have in gold, so think twice before investing into bitcoins.

when was the gold peak, because i think some chart are reporting it wrong, they said 1980 for a value of $2k, other say in 2012
That is not important. Now the heyday of gold. already finished. bitcoin will replace the golden age. era has changed. Now we think of when the peak time of bitcoin

the peak of bitcoin was in 2013, still unbeaten, the peak of gold to the contrary of my belief was not so long time ago, so it's possible for gold to reach again another high value

still gold only reach 2k has a value because its amrketcap it's already too big, so i doubt it will grow much farher, on the other hands bitcoin has a bigger potential in growing

Not sure if you have read the story but the FED and central banks are pretty much out of ammo in saving the world economy and countries being able to pay their debts.  One of the few tools left is gold revaluation -

Some crazy high figures being quoted, fingers crossed here lol Smiley

I think gold is a reasonably good investment, but Bitcoin is better. I would invest in gold, if i wanted to cash out Bitcoins, i would cash them out in gold. But if i keep the Bitcoins, i obviously think they are a better investment, with higher possible "jump" in price than gold. It seems more steady at the momment.

If you are already rich gold is good.

If you are poor, more chances to change your life with bitcoins.
lol so you're saying that the gold for the rich, and bitcoin only for those who are still poor, I think you made a mistake, mike tyson example, he is famous, popular and certainly rich. but he uses bitcoin
