gold drop 15% in lest year . Recently it went up, mostly because of war. This idea that everyone should invest into gold while at war is always a mess. This well issued PR campaign make people act like ship and do what they are expected to do. Not to mention how idiotic it is, when you invest into gold, at most of firms you keep it at some safe-place. Idea of investing into gold at war comes from fact that you can easily pay with it while at one. Keeping it at some random location and get only paper you get one is idiotic(in case you are afraid of war), keeping it at your home and become easy target for robbers , unless you pay small fortune for safety is another issue. Using it as payment in middle of war makes you easy target for marauders. Hell, if some people are so paranoid they should invest into guns then.

Both

Both is right answer for sure.

if we talk about 10 years.


Kind regards.   BTC

Very true. Do not put all your eggs in one basket. Spread your investment.
Original question is very wrong and dangerous.

Indeed.
We can say there is something connecting Bitcoin with Gold but this is clearly not the same basket and if you want  to buy gold - buy gold. If you want to buy cryptocurrencies Smiley buy Bitcoin!

Since I would like to at least retain the buying power of my wealth, and maybe even increase it, bitcoin is the higher risk/high reward route, and gold is the low risk/low reward. Adjusted for inflation, gold has spikes at times, but you are lucky to break even, and the dips can last awhile.

Compared to bitcoin, gold has a lot of disadvantages. There's theoretically an infinite supply, and even the limited supply available on the planet to be mined is a big unknown. Perhaps the big mining companies have a good handle on available supplies, but I don't have access to that information, so I'm at a disadvantage as a speculator. The max bitcoin supply on the other hand, is known to everyone.

Additionally, there's a lot of uncertainty in how much gold is available that has already been mined. How many whales are there? Who are they? Where is the gold? There's a chance that large holders have stores so deep that they could keep prices steady for years, if not decades. Again, bitcoin has the advantage because we know a lot about the big holders of coins.

And lastly, bitcoin actually has a significant use, as the method of payment within the bitcoin network. This network could be valued on par with other payment networks in the hundred of billions/trillions dollards. Gold uses are extremely limited.
