I would pick bitcoin as it is really good either in short or long term investment. I can earn easily just spending my free time daily unlike gold I don't know how can I get it for free. BTC has a faster and reliable transaction and I can make profits in the future.
There is nothing like free money and that goes same with bitcoin too, if you want to have it then either you have to buy it or earn it by working hard on it and that is advantage bitcoin has over gold, gold can never be earned it has to be purchased.
The only "free" Bitcoin I can think of is faucets, if you want to risk infecting your pc with malware and spend ages jumping through hoops for dust in your wallet.
So what is the difference between working for bitcoin or working for cash and buying gold?
On any given day I would pick bitcoin over gold.Bitcoin is easy to store even if you have millions of worth of bitcoin.Where would I store gold even if I have 10 kg of it? I can spend bitcoin directly to purchase anything and even sell bitcoin itself
This is another line people love to keep saying here, 10kg gold is worth $430,000. How many people here including you have that much invested in bitcoin. In reality the amount you have invested in bitcoin would be a few small gold coins that would just mix with your spare change.
I have cash and a debit card for my day to day spending, my investments are my investments which I dont need to spend on a regular basis.
