Gold can't be better then bitcoin because you can't send gold to someone or use it to pay for anything. How will you pay someone $3 ? You can't with gold.
That is why we no longer use gold. Can't run around with a pocket full of gold the whole time now can we ? Bitcoin is digital gold for the new age.

So Bitcoin is better than Gold? 
Wake me up when you can transfer $1 billion worth of gold for $2 in ~10 minutes from any to any location of the world. 
Thank you !! Thank you so much. This deserves to be quoted again. Thank you for this I saved these imagined now instead of explaining huge walls of text I simply refer s person to those tables. They very true and humourous too hahaha I love how it says to wear goves when touching money since it's filthy. Haha and gold is very shiney
Whoever populated those charts obviously has no clue what they are talking about and are so biased the information is worthless.
1) Portability - moderate. Lets apply some reality to this, a $40k gold bar is the size of a smart phone. How many people here at any point in their lives have walked around with so much cash that it would equate to more than a 1kg bar or two what would easy fit in your pockets.
2) Divisibility - moderate. You can buy gold in grains which is 1/15 of a gram.
3) Security - moderate. I bet I can come up with more major bitcoin hacks than you can major gold heists in the last few years. Also take a quick look at the scam accusation thread on this forum then find me an equivalet version on a precious metals forum.
4) Easily transactable - Low. I have strolled in to a bullion dealer, handed over 50oz of gold and the money was in my bank straight away. Scale that up, some days several hundred million dollars of gold are dumped within seconds on the market. If that happened to bitcoin there would be a major crash.
5) Decentralized - low. Gold can be purchased virtually anywhere in the world. It is also mined in numerous countries.
6) Anonomous - low - You can buy and sell gold for cash without any paper work or I.D requirements
7) Durability - low - They are pulling gold artifacts out of the ground that are thousands of years old and look as good as the day they were made. Its an element that doesnt rust or degrade.
8 ) Scare - Moderate. All the gold ever mined would fit on 1 tennis court.
9) Sovereign (Goverment issued) - Low. Ever hear of "Sovereigns"
Nearly every country in the world has government issued gold coinsClearly you live in the Stone age or medievil times. Gold ? Seriously ? Ok send me some gold right now ? Oh wait... It's physical in a digital world.
People don't walk around with that much value in gold or cash so I have no idea what you on about.
If you feel this way then get off the forum you don't belong here. Go buy metal. Good luck with that. Perhaps you should eeucste yourself about debeers gold mining company in South Africa.
You actually admit to "strolling" around with that much good ? Clearly not an intelligent thing to do. That why we do digital so someone cant mug us. How you gonna steal my Bitcoin when they virtual ?
Good can't be bought vertuakky anywhere many papers require ID and even background checks. Bitcoin I can buy right now in 2 minutes without getting off the chair.
Actually no it depends on where you live.
Your argument about durability is ridiculous. Digital items can't get damaged. Good can be lost.
All the Bitcoin ever minded can fit on a USB drive bs your tennis court.
The funniest thing is when you speak of scams. Lol. People have scammed people of valuable items since said item existed. Always will be that way. No scams with good ? Are you serious ? So what about stolen jewelty and good being bought and sold at dodgy dealers ? What about scams run involving gold investments ? Did you even do any research ? Also Debeers gold company release gold little by little and control the market . You can't control the bitcoin market.
Go buy some gold and leave Bitcoin alone. I'm sure you will get good returns.... Oh... Wait.... That's right....
Bitcoin is certainly better than gold. I had earlier read an article somewhere where they say that if you had invested 10grand in bitcoin and gold simultaneously in 2010, the btc investment would be worth $200m today while your gold investment would be standing at $9900. It's therefore a no brainer as to which asset is more valuable.
In terms of investment, there is no doubt that bitcoin is the best investment because of its continuous rapid growth in all aspects like community and also in the price so if you have patience to wait at least 10 years then you can make a lot of money with bitcoin by just simply investing in bitcoin and keeping it on a safe place for a few years from now.
Bitcoin is better in many ways. The only problem, that it is not so stable, but in long terms it shows monster growth, which gold will never see again.
I do not care about the stable in the bitcoin price because it is what makes bitcoin unite and awesome than other cryptos. THerefore, we should use bitcoin no matter how bad it can be because developers know how to fix bitcoin and make it run smoothly 
So Bitcoin is better than Gold?
I can say that bitcoin is way more better than gold when it becomes to uses. Bitcoin can be transact easily and less hassle with just a press of your fingers. Gold in other hand, are hard to send or receive because it's heavy. But when it becomes to investment they are both good, but bitcoin is the future, the value of it will always be higher than gold. And it can work lile banks of real money and thats gold cannot do.Is already. The price of Bitcoin exceeded the price of an ounce of gold in March of this year (as I can remember). Bitcoin is more convenient to invest and pay. Gold has a stable price. It is difficult to compare such different units.
Summarizing:
- Bitcoin = fast earnings + short term investment (for example, 2 years)
- Gold = stability + long-term investments (for example, 30 years)
We can not compare gold to BTC ...
i think Better in which aspect exactly if in the possibility of generating massive return in a short period of time then it's better
However regarding the stability the less downward curve are better in gold than the volatile bitcoin
IMO bitcoin is best as short term trading and gold as long term savings

Bitcoin obviously beater gold. because you can do reserve bitcoin long time.

I think gold is always stable but it does not change like Bitcoin so if you are a safe person you should choose gold. On the other hand, if you are a risk taker and you like to risk it, choose Bitcoin, it will help you get rich quick

It seems like comparing bitcoin with gold is like something that is difficult to answering, but I think currently bitcoin investment is better than gold, because invest in the bitcoin more profitable.
That is correct but I feel safer when I invest my money in gold because there is no way people can decrease the gold price right now and in the next 100 years, gold will still stable and against the inflation. If you want to save your money, put all of them in gold
Depends on what you mean by "better'" as both serve different purposes aside being used as store of value . Maybe in the long run Bitcoin may be better if it becomes possible to produce gold in Factories.

I think gold has an absolute value and less volatility in the financial market. Most people buy Bitcoin for profit and have a stable increase over gold so Bitcoin is definitely worth more than gold. In addition, Bitcoin is used to trade worldwide and gold is just a collateral
bitcoin is a better investment than the gold.but but the gold is more stabilizer than the bitcoin
so you could choose the investment by yourself
I think the bitcoin is better than gold.
I also think that bitcoin is better than gold but if you see their value in online market the price of bitcoin has a high value than gold. In addition to that, I prefer to invest in bitcoin because I know that the price of it will increase in the near future and it will consider as money like real money that you can in offline market. so you could choose the investment by yourself
I think the bitcoin is better than gold.
Apparently, Bitcoin is more popular than gold among investors.Is it just hype or something fundamental about the digital currency. It’s hard to say. What’s not hard to say is that there’s a growing mistrust of national currencies, following dubious government policies, which has pushed people into Bitcoin.
gold will always be better, you can actuallu use gold in industry or jewelry, but nothing beats bitcoin transportability 
So Bitcoin is better than Gold?
Bitcoin is far better than gold.Gold has been saved by people traditionally for centuries as an investment.But still it is not able to give huge returns like bitcoins.Just like gold,bitcoin is also secure.Gold could not be easily transported to any other parts of the world.But bitcoins could be sent to any parts of world instantly and easily.
