No it isn't bitcoin is more better than gold, gold is centralized that's why some people can manipulate the price of it, many of the politicians can corrupt it. while bitcoin is decentralized no one manage, meaning that bitcoin is well balance so it can't be the new gold it is the better gold.
Gold's market is heavily being manipulated by governments, but Bitcoin in the same way is also getting manipulated heavily be a certain number of elite market movers.
The most important aspect of gold, and Bitcoin at the same time, is that you can store your wealth outside the governmental and banking system. In terms of gold, this is assuming you own it in physical form.
Gold that people own on paper or in form of certain financial instruments don't count, just like the Bitcoins you store in online wallet services and exchanges don't count.
