Gold isn't much stable but can be volatile and I guess traders make some profit out of its volatility. However ,BTcC is more volatile compare to Gold , but why is Btc still preferred over Gold .
In my view, I believe most people store their assets as Gold because Gold is less volatile compared to BTC
I think Gold is just to store and maintain the value of assets freed from inflation and not what you're thinking. Moreover, the value of BTC is based on its usefulness as a medium of exchange and its scarcity. The present generation actually preferred BTC over Gold despite its higher volatility because BTC is much more liquid than gold meaning that it's easier to buy and sell. Again, BTC is much easier to store and transport than gold since it's a digital asset. Majority of us believe that BTC is a better store of value than gold because it has a fixed supply and is less influenced by politics or central banks. Gold seems to be outdated.
Exactly, in the case put by the first few posters over the last 12 years Gold has
risen in value by .... $61 thats not volatility, it moves 1% or a fraction of it at a time
thats exactly why Gold has been so popular by the super wealthy, its perfect for
storing wealth particularly in times of high inflation and dilution of FIAT currencies
without the big risk.
The image in the OP is a perfect visual for us who want to convince our friends that
actually there is a better vehicle to use than Gold, its Bitcoin.
Two people I know whom I have talked to in the past have all spent their money on Gold,
cant wait to show them this visual image.
