Yes, gold has many utilities and is widely used in life and there's no reason we should compare them. Currently, bitcoin is considered an investment channel more than any utility, investors in bitcoin just want to make profits, not use bitcoin as a means of payment or currency.
If we just talk about price then maybe OP is right, as bitcoin supply is very limited compared to gold. In the future, the value of bitcoin will surely increase and become the most valuable virtual asset.
The creator of bitcoin which is Satoshi Nakamoto invented this currency to be used as a currency and to be a utility someday to buy things but as of today, it's widely invested and then hold that for a matter of time until the holder wants to sell it. Yes, investors just started to invest bitcoin with one aim and that is to gain profits and not like the creator first imagined. But then again, still bitcoin holds a purpose because it can be a hedge against inflation.
As of comparing with Gold and Bitcoin, gold will remain scarce with a high value but bitcoin is scarcer and will hold more value because of its limited supply unlike the gold which its supply is not determined exactly and there's this gold in asteroids.
