Do you know guys that Americans Prefer Gold Over Bitcoin?
According to new survey only 13% people would chose to invest in bitcoin over gold.And 42% of people would invest in Gold.
People have more interest in Gold then bitcoin .
So guys what do you select bitcoin or gold ? its upto you .
Gold can help you anytime in future you can sell gold whenever you want to .Gold is the best option in my way.And Gold price keep increasing it don't drop like bitcoin.Gold is like Permanent insurance.

Lol. Of course more people would chosoe gold over bitcoin - they're ignorant of any news about bitcoin, and most probably have no idea about what it even is. I'm not quite sure about what happened to the other 45% of the people who were surveyed, but I feel like the amount of Americans that would invest in Bitcoin is probably more around like 5-10%. Criminal activities are the only real outlets that come from Bitcoin, and so most people don't get the whole story.
The price of gold is not permanent insurance, though. You need to get that in your head.

Haha, and who were the "people" that conducted that "study"? I'm sure that if there was a legitimate study amongst all of Americans in a random study, there would be 90% of people that chose option C: "WTF is Bitcoin?"

Fact of the matter is, is that you are probably right though as of right now, if there was such a study, people would still choose gold because it's more valuable right now, plus the fact that most people who have heard of bitcoin now think of bitcoin as some terrorist funding tool ever since the Paris attacks; and even before that people only thought it was only used by dark web criminals for drugs, prostitution, and hitmen.

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 believe bitcoin will bring a lot of money in my pocket in long term that's why i choose bitcoin..

for me, the gold for long term and bitcoin for short-term

it does not make any sense, since bitcoin is designed to be successful in the log term not in the short term, unless you're talking about day trading

He must be talking about day trading. The volatility of Bitcoin makes Bitcoin the ultimate dream asset for any day trader. Im not interested in that since I would rather just hold it through the ups and downs, but day traders love it.

I would choose bitcoin it has more potential, than gold.
Gold is an old payment method, nowadays its getting more digital.
The digital currency's will raise up to a higher level than gold in the future.

Gold and Bitcoin.
Why choose when you can get best of both worlds.
Gold for it's purity and value.
Bitcoin for it's innovation.

You are definitely right. But it depends on how much gold you have.
If you don't have much gold then its not so valuable.
It's just what you like and look.

bitcoin is definitely a long term investment as the current price is nothing more than peanuts compared to the price a few years later from now. gold on the other hand is an okay long term investment. bitcoin has way more room for potential growth.

We all must agree gold and bitcoin are winners!
Just fiat have no future, other goods and materials have tradable value.

I think its opposite the winner is fiat money. the current fiat money can not emulate, everyone wears fiat money, and whenever will be the same..

But you need to understand the past years when digigold, bitgold, and some related stuffs came into existence based on the technology of bitcoin, but now its no more found. These itself clearly indicate going for bitcoin is better than gold.

Bitcoin has more potential, gold has already reached its full potential. Bitcoin is a better investment.

This is also how I see this. Bitcoin has more potential for the price to rise compared to gold.

I think gold will do just fine alongside bitcoin. Its not an either/or situation, gold has utility, like bitcoin, and is scarce and desirable. A smart investor should have some of both in their portfolio.

Everything is better than fiat!

That's right, if the monetary item is not deflationary.
I'd always on side with making baskets, I'd put %30 gold, %30 stocks-bonds and %40 Bitcoin. First 2 are useful for stable price rise and the latter is making us rich in long term.

Bitcoin will be making us rich long term if people can figure out what they want to do with the blockchain, and stop creating a politically unstable environment which is in turn damaging the value. I am confident that someone will be able to figure it out, but we'll have to wait and see what will happen over the short term.

Definitely gold!
Bitcoin don't have 3000 years of use!
Also today everything is backed by gold! l don't like comparison gold bitcoin it is to early for that!

yeah Gold has a very long history. even before any BC, gold has been valued,
in contrast to bitcoin, still rest with corn

but is the age any affects to the growth of both?

gold is not doing very in this periodo, but bitcoin yes, so i would prefer bitcoin, also iff it doesn't have 3000 years of story

I think gold has a good story in history. ranging from Cleopatra or the previous year, they all use gold, bitcoin is still unborn
