The fundamental difference between those two is that gold would probably still have some value if there were a very drastic catastrophe (because it always had some value) and BTC would just vanish when there is no longer the network infra structure for it. I admit that is a very drastic scenario, but some people are buying gold coins for exactly this possibility.
Apart from that I think that only time will show. Now BTC had a very good run but its history is much shorter than that of gold. Gold is seen as an asset in almost all cultures around the world and has this status already basically for ever. Bitcoin however is quite young and I guess it will take some time to build this trust, or it won't be that stable at all and will rather prove as a short-term investment.

If you are holding gold then the following reasons would be happen.
1) Less amount of profit.
2) Not secured.
3) Cheaper to have.
4) Expensive to buy.

If you are holding bitcoin then the following reason would be happen.
1) High profit

A lot of people  view gold as a safe haven, and an excellent diversification from paper currencies,it's a traditional market's target,because gold rises in value when inflation takes hold.I think that if you want to protect your money,you must buy/hold gold(in my opinion you cann't earn passive income by holding gold.) and if you want to increase your earnings you must hold btc,not gold,because all we know about bitcoin's potential,Bitcoin is ''mineable'' like gold and more profitable,so,despite this they are different in their properties.
That time has gone when gold was valuable now only thing that is valuable and that is bitcoin and it has totally diverted the attention of gold investors and now people are taking gold as only jewelry and they are investing into bitcoin because they know that btc is really helpful and this coin will surely give them hue profit as well as a lavish life in future so don’t go for gold now bitcoin is here to please you with profit.
Holding bitcoin can give you a huge profit while holding of gold is not able to give you such huge profit because the rate of bitcoin is very high and also the rate of bitcoin is increasing mostly with time and in future the rate will be more high then present rate.
But all things don't guarantee by the government or those who can guarantee our profits from Bitcoin investment. This is investment, so, we all know the rule of investment, we can't have profits forever and the market need to have loser. So, Bitcoin and Gold are good for long term investment, but don't forget calculate the risk.

Invest in gold is necessary, but long time to wait for profits. This is the contribution for future. And invest in bitcoin now and make profit in the near future.. I vote for both

Holding a bitcoin is also a best choice than gold. It will give you to more profit than that..It best choice for short term traders.. Little riskey to long term trader.. It based on you..

I actually prefer to hold bitcoin, because I believe bitcoin prices will rise and be very high this time. bitcoin has a higher chance to grow in the future, so if you ant to hold something to increase your money for the future that should be bitcoin.
Holding bitcoin is more value able than holding Gold because the value of bitcoin rising in faster way but gold value is considered to be stable due to its normal up & down. Bitcoin holding is more secure than holding Gold
I would risk with bitcoin because I know investing with gold is not for everyone, bitcoin can give multiple folds of our money and as long as the demand keeps increasing, we can always expect the value of our holdings will increase. Let's just consider the wide market, and if we have them adopting with bitcoin then for sure it's a guaranteed success for us investors.
I strongly agree that bitcoin is one of the best options for investing and keeping our finances better and gold only for safest investments and bitcoin investments have many risks but bitcoin is able to manage finances with many of the benefits derived from bitcoin.
Bitcoin isn't an asset or a tool to manage finances, it's an asset for trading and is a cryptocurrency. But for now, Bitcoin just useful for trading and investment, for those who want to transfer money as a currency, I suggest to use other cryptocurrencies will be better.

gold has been a long-standing investment. so the difference between the number of investors who use gold and the number of investors who use bitcoin will continue in the coming years. maybe 50 years later people are starting to invest more in BitCoin, but for now the current investment is still gold.

I prefer to withhold bitcoin rather than money, if holding bitcoin we can get more profit from bitcoin price increase, but if only holding in the form of money then we will not be able to get profit because money can not rise in price.

It is a real far situation if we will compare the distance of the price market cap of the two existing currencies that is present and widely use by many people in the world. Yes bitcoin price rate is do really rising that can somewhat make it a little bit near to approach gold but the reality is gold value will surely to rise for a lifetime because of its natural preference compared to bitcoin that the assurance to last for a lifetime is still unknown.
Each individual has his own particular personality decision however as indicated by my decision holding of bitcoin is so superior to anything holding of gold and the reasons are

Working with bitcoin is simple as contrast with gold

Working with bitcoin is secure than gold

Working with bitcoin can give you enough benefit then gold.

Bitcoin is a very good short-term investment because we can quickly make a profit from Bitcoin.
While gold,gold is a suitable investment for the long term because it is very safe and that makes interesting both is have their own advantages.
So if you choose to make your investment safe select gold,if you want to profit quickly choose Bitcoin but Bitcoin is at risk because at any time Bitcoin price it can go down.
It is great to have those two kinds of investment because it will surely give us money in the future because if we will have a safe investment like gold that is great for our money to be putted on for the future then it will work just right and we can comfortably sleep every night and with bitcoin as an investment, it will give us fast profit that will lead for ourselves to get faster flow of income and the gold will act as a back up.
Holding Gold, you don't need to worry the price of this asset in future. We all know the demand of Gold, it's always needed as an asset indispensable for anyone want to saving money. It's also important for the rich when they want to show their rich with the world.

Is a wrong comparative tool to compares gold vs bitcoin, after all gold has been in the market even before this our generation came onboard but bitcoin is not even up to ten years in the market. But in at that bitcoin has proven to all that is not how long but how well you can see that from bitcoin volatile natour with steady rise in price in the exchange market. So to me personally I will choose bitcoin over gold because of the fact that bitcoin value higher then gold within a short period of time.
