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?

I think it depends on each other's thinking. Gold is lower in risk, because the price is more stable, Unlike the bitcoin whose price is unstable and it is very risky. I think the gold holders are much more than the bitcoin holders.

It is obvious that most people in the world especially the rich ones are storing gold as means of of luxury storage preservation. But it is also clear that those few people who believes on Bitcoin and its future are rewarded more. I still prefer Bitcoin over gold as right now is still pioneering stage and there is too much room for blockchain technology growth.

I think holding of gold is better because it has physical appearance and can be used as luxurious accessory to the body and gold now is near to being rare. Unlike BTC it has to physical appearance and only can be seen in Internet which is only useful for business and gaining profit no more else. Holding gold is better for it gains value and can be used as a beautiful accessory.

Gold has 5000 years of history as a store of value, Bitcoin slightly less. So for the long term I'd still rather go for gold. Which does not mean that we shouldn't allocate a part of our savings in BTC, of course. On the contrary!

Holdings for gold is better than holding of bitcoin because as you can see right now price of bitcoin is low and were not sure if when it will last while gold has proven its worth because golds exist already a long time ago and until now it is still popular and people kept it as their wealth.
The only disadvantage for bitcoin for being an investment is the volatility that put the investors in such a high risk of losing their money and that is why there are still few people that prefer gold in long term investment because they know that gold is safer and less volatile than bitcoin which is the reason for majority of the people to have a less trust in bitcoin.
People with heart disease shouldn't to investing in Bitcoin.
I strongly recommend they should to saving in Gold or Real Estate, because these things are better for long time.
The demand of these things are always high, expecially Real Estate, for 20-30 years is very well!

If gold and btc are said to hold which one is more profitable, then I will definitely say btc. Because the price of btc that grows rapidly, the value of gold does not grow as quickly as it is said. I think btc hold is more profitable than gold.

Since gold is a mineral that is nowere linked to bitcoin I don't think this will happen, the number of holders isn't near the same.

Holding btc is more valuable than gold .
Bitcoin prices can anytime go to top level and easily you can sell or buy it with more comfort and ease than gold.
Also gold is very old and not more appreciated by people now. Modern technology uses modern things.
Well in my part i also believe that holding btc is really better than gold because bitcoin price is really unstable which is good for buy and selling process of gaining profit because we can really buy btc in a verry low amount when its price  going down.while in gold we cannot really make profit on it in investment process because it is almost always in a high price .

Holding bitcoin is great idea. But how long can stand to our society?  bitcoin compared to gold is too far..
Gold uses for how many years as a sign of wealth and power and it have a reputation and stable value.
Bitcoin is a store of value as a definition of some especially those who invested on it.
However, if we compare it with gold in terms or stability, for sure bitcoin will not win as the nature of bitcoin is volatile and it's a high risk investment.
A person should understand very well if he is holding bitcoin for his fufure due to inherent risk unlike gold where you can secured with the value.

Well, I would agree with you. Bitcoin is a digital asset and there is no guarantee that it will survive for more than a couple of decades at the most. On the other hand, bullion metals such as gold have been in use as investment assets for more than 5,000 years and IMO, it will hold its value as long as the human race exists in this planet. No one said the value of Gold is always high. At the moment, the value of Gold is still high because the world think it is limited supply and rare. Its ability to use in the industry is also very good, almost as it is the best in all metals I know.
Well, holding BTC can make our money grow. Holding GOLD can also make our money increases. Holding land and house, can also make our money increases. They are called investment. The problem is, the price of crypto can go up and down, while GOLD, land, and homes never go down. I never heard that there is a falling land price every year, surely they all always increase every year. So which investment is better? Of course GOLD, land and house. But if you compare it with the increase in the price of crypto, it will be difficult. Because maybe a certain price increase of crypto can be faster and bigger than GOLD. However, everything has its own uniqueness and advantages. That's why there is a term, dont put all your eggs in one basket.

Its best if you can hold both since they are good investments. But If I were to choose betweern the two, gold is my 1st priority, physical asset is more secure and safer, it is also accredited worldwide.

holding gold may be more stable and gold will always be there anytime, while bitcoin, the price is unpredictable and nobody knows whether bitcoin will always exist.

From me, BTC holding is more preferable than gold holding. Holding BTC can gives more profit. Day by day btc price is highly increasing so its value will also be increased. BTC is also consider as digital assets which value is up raising.

You might argue that bitcoin is newer and flashier, and that it has arguably more utility in the digital era than gold. But, gold has the indisputable track record, having been a cherished store of value for thousands of years across human civilizations.

BTC Hold is more profitable than Gold Holding.The review of the past few years clearly seen that the value of Bitcoin has increased greatly in comparison to gold.

Agree with you

You are right, BTC hold is more profitable than Gold holding. We see that the price of bitcoin is increasing day by day more than gold. For that reason we strongly told that BTC holding is more profitable than GOLD holding.
