Bitcoin is a hedge against inflation, so the asset you should really compare it to is gold. And the reason to buy bitcoin instead of gold is that the gold market is heavily manipulated (plus gold is hard to move).

Comparing bitcoin to other markets isn’t too fair. Because everybody is a king in his own lane. In the stocks market there is the big fish in there, so also the CFD and other market. Bitcoin is the big fish in the cryptomarket.
But look bitcoin is big fish in all over global market, yeah you are right in some way but you can’t be able to say that you will get high profit only from stock markets, there is too much risk in stock market, and in bitcoin risk percentage is much less the stock market. If I have investment then I will directly move and buy bitcoin from it.

Bitcoin is not stable investment and it is running all by means of a decentralised server and involvement of people who are trying to make it better world.

There is little risk while considering bitcoin investment in terms of its volatile nature. The bitcoin is something which may or may not stay for longer time and due to its decentralisation there is fear of government implications regarding its use.

Stocks, bonds, real estate has the real value which is set by government and it has got documented proofs of existence as well as values. It is more reliable trading asset or property which can be sold and bought to anyone in the world whereas bitcoin has less trust when considering global popularity.

It has pros and cons but somehow it's working for now.

It is pretty vague to compare everything. For instance not all stocks are created equal, some stocks are good for investments others are only good for short term plays. Also comparing Bitcoin to Real Estate has a lot of differences in Bitcoin you can start with little capital however in Real Estate you need to have a big capital to buy a piece of property. Also real estate investments only appreciates in time, Bitcoin on the other hand fluctuates even if it gets older and older.
What I have understood from your comparison is that bitcoins have a big edge over other investments. No other investment has power of doubling your money in short time than any other form of investment. I will suggest all for investing bigger portion of their savings into bitcoins to have a luxurious lifestyle.

Hello! Thank you for considering my topic: Compare Bitcoin to Other Investment Instruments (Stocks, Real Estates, Etc.)

What do you think are the main difference/advantage/disadvantage of Bitcoin when you compare it to the most common investment instruments like Stocks, Bonds, Real Estates, etc.

Thank you!

It's hard to compare btc with other investment instruments. They have their own charecteristics and most likely that they have little to no similarities at all. When we compare, usually it's about the same thing but one with an additional feature from the other one. In this case of yours, the only thing common with them is "investment" but btc really differ from the others mentioned. Btc is decentralized, unstable and volatile but gives a really great profit. Anyone who wants to have a portion of it can have it either by buying or doing online jobs. While those other investment on the other hand requires big capital and you can't have it in portion. Take for example the real estate, you cannot just do an online job and expect to have one part of it. Can we bought the garage area first then followed by the living room? No.

Investing in Bitcoin is really different from Stock real estates, etc. but can really good in term of ROI. The thing is you need to updated with everything in the ecosystem around bitcoin and follow the trend. To compare with real estate, it's just a buy and forget for 10 years
Real Estate and Gold are really passive income, when we investing to them, we don't need worry about the future of them if us checked carefully the potential (for real estate). This is difference of Bitcoin and asset stable like Real Estate or Gold.

There is no comparison b/w Bitcoin and real estate it is completely different. Investing in Bitcoin needs just money. But we have to invest in real estate there are many rules and regulations and many paper work formalities heavy risk. Suddenly the land value goes down that's it. Bitcoin is not like that if today the value goes down tomorrow it will recover. And stock exchange i don't believe i saw many of my friends lost money in this stock market.

When comparing, one needs to be mindful of the fact that only likes is compared with likes but for the two categories we have here, I don't see them sharing any similarity because while one category is characterised by  volatility, freedom, decentralisation and even across borders, the others are complete opposite to what we have. So there is no way to compare in my opinion as to which one is better or worse. If you can take the risk, go for it and be sure you are doing so well informed.

I think there is little comparison between them because bitcoin works in completely different way. There is bitcoin which operates completely virtually and there is stock/bonds/real estates which work on paper and with government regulations. Both are very different set of values and characters with improper comparisons. Due to decentralised nature bitcoin works peer to peer which advantage when considering anonymous transaction with big volumes of money involved. The tax is benefit if we are trading in the bitcoin form and as long as we don't sell the bitcoin for fiat. However, stocks and the stuff are completely named and anyone can track you down for the trades and investment you do. I think the list is very big but the major concerns are about the money volume freedom and anonymous transactions. :-)

It depends on the field of interest of the investor. If they're into real estates, banking, stocks and bonds. They can tried both the real one with the trusted company and with crypto or btc in the most successful iCO. It will depends if they trust btc enough to invest their money online or they wanted it in a real built company. Bitcoin Advantages is that we do investing in any fields whenever we like with no limits of how much unlike in real once we need to have bunch of money in order to participate.

Out of the all other investments,bitcoin is the safest investment as it works on a secured block chain system.We have full control of our investment in bitcoins.Bitcoin price has increased four times within last eight months from $850 to around $3400 today.We could not expect such a huge return from any other assets other than bitcoin.
Yes bitcoin is good, but you are not always sure of the profit you will make; it’s possible you are likely to lose. But with a legit Real Estate investment, you’re sure of a particular percentage/share/profit. But I will still say Bitcoin is the best above all of them, because you’re in control of it.

No in my opinion Bitcoin not safe than Gold or Real Estates, most trader are want earning money from Bitcoin market for have them.
Because if you think again about define Bitcoin, it's just a virtual value and still not popular on the world.

Not only this, but also the daily fluctuations in price are high enough that can in few good trades match a return from a year long investment. If one would buy at the price at let's say 2500 and then sell even the same day when it hits 2750 you get a 10% gain basically in a day or two. Bitcoin can just like that definitely smash any banks yearly 5% saving accounts.

But it's also unpredictable enough to be consider a really risky investment so it could be maybe compared to some penny stocks tradings and people who buy that stocks for some cents and sell at dollar, but this kind of trading seems just like altcoin investments. So yeah, traders and rich businessmen from all over the world are probably going to join cryptocurrency world, but I guess they already have done it.

Honestly I have stopped investing into other investments opportunities after started considering bitcoins as a serious investment instrument for safer tomorrow.

I am just holding what I have invested some 5 years back into stocks and real estates as I am fully focusing on bitcoins for regular investing from my day job. When I did the calculations on ROI for certain period of holding, bitcoin alone still standing tall. I believe this is more than enough justification to continue what I am already doing.
That’s true. Bitcoins have no comparison with any other investment instruments. It can all alone provide you with profit which all other investment instruments can do altogether. It has an amazing future as compared to any other instrument. So my advice is to stay stick to it.

You cannot compare investing in bitcoin with real estate investments. In the case of real estate you will always be a product that maybe will cost less, but will always bring income. With bitcoin it's different. This is a very large income with a much greater risk to remain in General with anything. It seems to me that bitcoin is closer to speculation than investing.
Exactly, comparing bitcoin to the real estate i think the winner is real estate if we're talking about safest long term investment. Bitcoin is a risky investment due to its volatile nature and the price also is unpredictable while real estate it's price is always rising up, safer, and it is good for securing your asset but it needs long time to get profit one more thing is selecting area before investing or buying a real estate, in real estate area is very important you may gain more profit if your real estate are in good place. Bitcoin is better for speculate, i might say better for short term investment.

Partly true but Bitcoin has the potential to grow even greater in future and so it's likewise a potential long term investment opportunity because a lot of people are getting to know day by day and it is driven by the demand which comes from these newcomers and for this consistent increased demand to dwindle will take a lot of effort that's why it is reliable for the future just like the real estates.
