Holding of gold is quite a big difference from bitcoin.bitcoin is like a business while gold is like saving only .gold is nee a decade to rise its price while the bitcoin can rise  its price a small period of time.thats  a big difference .bitcoin is best among the two.

Does anyone have any idea how many people are using gold as a store of value vs btc?  And how long do you think until we have the same user Base as holders of gold?
It will still be a long way for Bitcoin to match up with Gold, especially in terms of being an investment and the number of user base holders. Gold is being used before by different countries and different eras , also considered a became a currency to countries which is not yet developed. Which means that its community is way bigger than community of Bitcoin which affects its demand.
It's a long way but it seems like bitcoin is going to that way in a fast pace. Gold holders cannot say they are more profitable because bitcoin is giving more and their investment are more liquid. They can use it in their daily transactions and they can trade it as well, in reality bitcoin is more useful than gold and in time when people realize its value, it will be considered more precious than gold.
I agree to that, bitcoin is more useful than gold because we can use bitcoin as a money to pay and use on different transaction with an easier way than money.

Bitcoin is a like a gold but it is more advanced than gold because it is digital and it is more secured than any other investment that we have right now so i think the holdings of bitcoin is very far way better than gold.
My vote is also with bitcoins. The holding of bitcoins for few months can produce profit more than gold. Gold is very much stable in price and is not capable of producing significant profits in few months. Besides the digital nature of bitcoins give them an edge over gold for people can easily carry bitcoins anywhere but that is not the case with gold.

If it has both will be very good if it is resistant for long period of time. But, if need money, I think selling bitcoin to taste would be better, because gold will always be a real treasure, while bitcoin, the price is unstable. But, will be very good at make as a tool of short and long term investment.

Gold vs bitcoin discussion is the one of the most repeated topics on this forum. Well holding bitcoin for long time can give a huge profit but it involves high risk, however holding gold for a long time can't give a huge profit but it involves minimum risk.
With the gold that's actually not true, Gold can give huge profits expecially when there is financial crisis in one of the big economies in the world, traders seem to go in for gold whenever a crisis happens either financial or terrorist attacks,  it's the safest bet for them.

If we discuss about the safest than bitcoin is also safest crypto currency and people believe and trust on it, and we could save our bitcoin into our wallets and it mean we save our money from thief and government, because we are not paying tax on bitcoin. But about huge profit than may be gold give us more than bitcoin. But personally, i have never experience of gold and i like to use bitcoin, that's why i prefer bitcoin on gold.

In corner of supply and ownership, I believe gold holders more than bitcoin holders. Because people in the world almost all know gold as an investment. While bitcoin, is virtual currency created by technology. However, popularity of bitcoin much more booming than gold.
Gold has been there since the bible times, the old testament times. Both holdings of gold and bitcoin are profitable but if you are techie person you will depend on holdings with bitcoin. And if you are an old timer investor you will always depend on the usual type of investment in metals like gold, silver, platinum etc.
Indeed, it totally depends what kind of trader you are. If you are school of thoughts, you will definitely be attracted by gold but if you are fond of technology, your vote will go for Bitcoin. As a matter of fact we all know that Bitcoins are far better than gold in regard of producing profit in short time.

I personally attracted to gold but we are into the days of where the technology is owning almost everything and this is why I'm into holding of bitcoin. But if someone is going to offer me to buy his gold for a cheaper price I will not think twice with it because it's also a good investment, it's just about investment nothing less, nothing more.

As of now, few of them are using gold because gold is hard to get now. Inadequate of gold mining is what we are facing now that's why many people having a case of robbery. Gold now is hot in the human eye. I think bitcoin is better to hold than gold now because bitcoin has many benefits than gold. That's why I choose for bitcoin because I think I could earn a big profit on it.

With today's time stamp there seem to be very less users who know bitcoin and are willing to invest into bitcoin. Yes im speaking perfectly and i have not made mistake while typing. Gold is actually more popular because it is traditional way of investing and for everybody it is physical and precious metal which they can feel in their real life. Thats the reason more people are getting attracted to it.


Though we keep saying bitcoin is best investment but there are still lros and cons which are debating in current era. The user base is poor and i believe only billion or so people know what bitcoin is. Thats not even 10% of total population on the earth. Not everyone has access to the internet and  not everyone is skilled in using it. So there is still half of the population which is unware of bitcoin for the different different reasons. So weightage goes to gold. At least for now. :-)

It seems that gold users today are so many because they aim not for investment for profit but only for jewelry, different from bitcoin users now is for investment, bitcoin users are losing a lot when compared with the golden user

Gold has a physical value and Bitcoin's value changes from time to time. The price of gold is more stable compared to Bitcoin. If you'll ask many people about which is more reliable, they'll surely answer Gold because it is less volatile. But it is just that Bitcoin is more profitable especially nowadays that its price is continuously increasing day after day.

Gold is more reliable, but the bitcoin has more potential.

I would definitely lean towards holding bitcoin as opposed to holding gold. Gold will always hold its value and is very stable, whereas bitcoin is far more volatile, but we can expect to see its price increase much much higher in the future. If you want to invest in something very stable and with a small window of profit, then gold is your answer. If you invest in bitcoin, it is just a bit riskier, but more profits will come your way.

Gold is much more reliable because it has physical value. Also becouse of that gold is the basis of the entire world economy. But bitcoin is much more profitable today. But still can not replace gold, I think.

If i do have the money to go on both things i will go for it for sure because holding these two things will give you fortune later on but engaging on this two things would really cost you a lot. We know its not cheap already and both have expensive prices which we do have a hard time on buying it if we are just an average earning person. Lucky for those who really have the funds to put on money on these both things.
