Its one of the best things you can do because the fact is that you can than make profit on both.
I would pick gold for a long term and bitcoin for a short term due to the halving.

with gold you're always making small profits if you compare it to bitcoin. bitcoin has a lot potential growth where the price may even reach a value of a few thousand per coin. with gold the profits are in the range of 10-50% where bitcoin can give you a minimum of 200-300% in the coming years.

Yeah with bitcoin you can get a much bigger gain than gold but the potential too loose your investment is more than in gold.

it depends. if you're a calm person with enough patience and not panic when there is a sell off, then you'll be just fine if you hold your coins for the long term. you don't lose anything until you sell your coins.

this personality is nessasary for anybody who wants to make and investment, doesn't matter what it is you should set some rules for yourself about when to buy and how much loss is acceptable for you before you are forced to sell and how much profit before you sell.

at the moment i have 30 btc now i could sell in the highs and buy gold leaving me with 15 btc.

im starting to think btc wont survive long due being entirely digital the thing could be abandoned or worse internet might go down what you guys think i would look pretty stupid buying something you cant see or hold im torn to shreds right now.

ive listened to max keiser and proffs that bitcoin could be worth tens of thousends i think its the most sensible thing to do "dont put eggs in one basket" on all...

it draws a fine line... i.e. all that electricity to "mine" bitcoins pushing hardware to the max and with exchanges like crypsty and cexio mucking me around i just dont see the future help me realise this what should i do?

no you shouldn't, you should go like 75% with bitcoin and 25% with gold because gold is stable while bitcoin isn't so with bitcoin you can win much more money then you could win from gold, also it have larger risk but you probably won't lose money with bitcoin

i agree, this is a much better solution for the time being. bitcoin is on the verge of a rise which can be a big rise leading to a rally so shifting the investment more into bitcoin is a better choice for bigger return.

Well it is always wise to diversify your investment. With bitcoin you can potentially earn a lot but potentially lose a lot too.
I for one spread it like this 1/3 savings, 1/3 bitcoin 1/3 stocks.

I think holding bitcoins nowadays would be a profitable idea, especially it's expected that the Bitcoin's price will increase soon after halving.

Yeah but its always good to invest your money into multiple products, bitcoin is looking good at a moment but we are not sure what would be the scenario in future, so its good if we invest our money in both of them.

I am agree with you, in fact we cant for sure pretend what's going to happen exactly in our future, so the safest way to invest in buying both Bitcoins and Gold and this way we minimize the risk.

If you prefer to have the price stability of gold it would be good to invest 50% in gold.
If you can take the risks of holding bitcoins you can profit big time in the long run.

yeah, i think i would take the risks as i believe in bitcoin and i hope that the price one day will sky rocket and every holder will become rich in small period of time

thats why im not spending any of my coins and i save it up in my cold storage, though it would be a huge loss for me if there will not be a price increase

I really do not like gold it has maintained a strong image for a well but I think it will fade,I know Canada has totally dropped its gold reserve.
This seems to be a trend as we move forward,nothing wrong with owning a bit but total investment seems crazy.

Would put a bit in oil and I know that sounds like it goes against what I stated with gold but I see a rebound coming. It may dip again but say 1-2 years it should be back to $80 CAD per barrel. Currently 38 I believe after being down to 26.

Not even going to lie, selling off all the gold was the single most retarded thing that I've seen yet. If I remember it was a move to finance the campaign promises, and they still have to dip into another deficit instead of just backing off and having people wait.

I for sure would invest in oil, skip gold, and invest in Bitcoin when it hits a low point. There seems to be a bit of sliding with the market right now, though, so it might not be worth investing at this very moment.

well bitcoin will live for long i think, no idea why should it die in 10 next years, will rise probably only

and with gold/BTC, gold is stable while bitcoin is not, so going 50/50 on gold and bitcoin might be great idea, it's pretty safe so you won't lose a lot of money if something bad will happen

It's expected that both Gold and Bitcoin will going highest prices soon, so i think it's profitable nowadays to invest with gold and BTC

Yes this is true, so its good to invest them both, also the fact you can use them as a sort of backup if one fails.
I think they will both succeed with profit on a long term.

I will say 20% gold and 80% bitcoin. Gold is just a hedge against inflation, it will not rise in value in real terms.

i would say differently as bitcoin price is fluctuating a lot these days and no one knows if you will not have a huge loss because of that

if i were in your shoes i would most probably go 80 per cent gold and 20 on bitcoin because the walls of buy price are really small right now

It depends, Gold is being seen as safe haven by some people. Especially now people only receive around 0.5-0.7% interest on their savings accounts. People are looking for ways to spread their money. Gold is very popular in that aspect.

yeah but it's not going to have the potential for skyrocketing like bitcoin can have in the future, at best it can reach again its prime($2k)

the marketcap of gold is already so big that i don't see any real improvement for the long term

I would say that the "real improvement" term is actually suitable for Gold and definitely not to any crypto currency.The fake pumps might be profitable to the people and might also be good for the coin but is obviously pre-planned.

Even if bitcoin doubles or triples its price, there could be some whales who can destroy any time they want which isn't possible for Gold.Stability is way too important than pumps.If its savings then i would invest more towards stable stuff.

indeed, no matter how high the bitcoin price is, whales/early adopters can change that within a few minutes. the higher the price is, the weaker the support gets. for example: right now if you support the price with a $1,000,000 buy order, which translates into around 2380btc, it will be a decent, but not very strong support. if the price is $2000, then the $1,000,000 buy order translates into 500btc, which can be sold through in a second. whales that keep holding their coins will end up getting even more control over the price than they have now.
