I would pick both.
Picking both is good decision but I believe Gold is still much better then Bitcoin for investment

Gold is a store of value. BTC can be used daily.

Bitcoin can just vanish and corrupt... No it can't, your security and maintainance could be bad, you are the bank with bitcoin Smiley

both, plus a few kg bars of silver, cause why the fuck not. Gold and silver are essentially oil plays, in that it cost a shit load of energy to mine and refine each ounce.... as oil continues to get more expensive, and ore grades continue to decline, the cost has to keep going up. BTC because decentralization is my political philosophy

You are not the only one feeling like that

Gold is very safe because it is hard to mine, has many applications and has been a store of value and medium of exchange for thousands of years

Gold because it's more solid, but Bitcoin wins when it comes to hidding it. Owning gold is a pain in the ass. It could be all stolen unless you have it on sight permanently and it could be a big problem trying to cross borders with it.

You can have your Gold in a Bank safe which is kind of safe of you can have it in a bank oversea or in Australia which is super safe

very true about the money laundering scheme but gold will stand up if bitcoin ever just loses value

The point for understanding what would be profitable is related time span: say you and i have $1000 dollars to invest, back in Feb. 2013. I put my money into bitcoin (100 BTC, $11 per one coin). You put yours into silver (~$30/oz, or about 33 oz). For today i made about $60,000. You lost about $130.

If you do the same with January 1st 2014 I am even but you lost 50%

I think BTC will survive long term. Paypay will process BTC together with other payment processors.
