GOLD, because gold is forever.
What if something happens in the future that wipes out the entire btc currency system?? No one know about it.

People who hope BTC for forever will regret when they see a lot altcoin born rapidly. (it's like machine gun bullet, digitally)

Yes, many people are thinking that gold is always better than bitcoins. Gold has its own importance and trust among the people from the ages, it is also very popular. On other hand bitcoin is still struggling in many countries for the regulating and to recognize by the the government. It will take more time to earn that trust and became a popular among the people.

I do not want say something bad about bitcoin, because i am also buy, use and holding bitcoin.
But gold is more realistic than bitcoin.

Gold is a real stuff, you can hold it and trade it to all currencies around the world.
Gold is founded from real mining, from earth instead of bitcoin which founded from satoshi nakamoto.

Satoshi Nakamoto have a right to make bitcoin as much as they want. (although they say they will make limit just for 21million BTC only)
But it is digital, and they can add more limit if they not keep their promise.

I don't think I would pick either of them, Bitcoin and Gold are 2 different things from each other

Gold has been in the stock market for years to, to this day people still use gold to store their money. I believe that's still a good investment.

Bitcoin has been here for a while now, I truly believe this has a future and that bitcoin will continue to grow over the next few years.

If given a choice to walk away with either Bitcoin or gold of equivalent value, what would you pick?

Asians and Westerners were asked in Taipei in Chinese and English if they would take Bitcoin or gold home with them that day, and the answer might surprise you...

We just shot a video outside the Taipei 101 skyscraper area here and gave people a chance to answer if they would walk away with either Bitcoin or gold- and why.

If you were approached and were offered the same deal, would you walk away with Bitcoin or gold in your pocket, and why???




I would take Bitcoin in my 'pocket' anytime! the reason I can check the authenticity of Bitcoin when it enters my 'wallet'. But I would be at first very suspicious as to why anyone would be giving me gold on the street (tungsten-loaded most probably) and there is no way i can be sure it is real. So Bitcoin for me!

bitgold is also available

What is the use of using bitgold? The prices are same as market price then you can directly buy from market because there are many complains about this bitgold company that they are sending your withdrawals on time instead some times they may even suspend your accounts. So I suggest if your planning for long term investment then buy gold directly and save it safely where you can access easily and always.

Gold at this time because it is gone down so much in the last year and a half, and in doing so one can buy an ounce and actually hold it in your hand and say to yourself "I made a good investment  Grin "

Hmm... this is good thinking. IMO, gold is extremely undervalued right now. I have a feeling that the big players are suppressing the gold (and other bullion) prices. Also, the gold production will decline in the near future, as the recoverable reserves are running out very steeply. However, this is not going to happen overnight. Might take 10-15 years.

I choose both, bitcoin and gold.
"Do not put all your egg into one place"

I'm quite satisfied using bitcoin as my payment methods, i think people will like and keep using bitcoin too. I will keep hold BTC.

gold has been used for ages to store value. I dont think i can pick bitcoin over gold because the bitcoin has not yet proven itself to be stronger. Otherwise if given a chance i would select half bitcoin and the other half Gold just to be safer.

with so much fake gold out there, I would walk away with bitcoins. Chances are the gold was tungsten filled
That is so true. With so much fake gold out there i would be suspicious if someone offered me GOLD on the street! Better to get BTCs that you can verify in seconds if you have received. BTCs for me anytime.

Gold, it's clearly more valuable to the masses. Bitcoin has yet to prove its long term financial stability and therefore we all know that Gold is the better option.

Admittedly you can't gamble with Gold, so 90% of this site will never pick gold for that reason Wink

Gold is a valuable investment. It is a store of value and hedge against inflation. Its value has been proven for thousands of years. On the other hand, bitcoin is just 6 years old. It is still in very early stage of development. But it is revolutionary, it changes the way the money is issued. We can use bitcoin to buy goods and services.
Bitcoin has bright future.

I will choose both. Gold is a good investment option when you face some emergency problems and situations. Also gold is better when you invest it in long term investation like 10 years.

Bitcoin is a good investment method if you want to double your money as fast as you can. Bitcoin has good price movement.

As far as my experience says that gold is unbeatable investment if we want to compare with bitcoin. But doesn't mean bitcoin can't be selected as good investment. As for now we can see that bitcoin's value got increased and surely it will make a profit if you decide to sold it out
