Bitcoin is not better. Bitcoin now used for the same purpose. But the return on investment in bitcoin is far higher. I think that it will not always. Perhaps in the future these assets will be equal in yield and then will be quite another matter. Now is the primitive accumulation of capital and it can take yield is not subject to any logic.
Buying bonds awaits you for a very long time. When playing stock, the stock market has many fluctuations. Buying a bitcoin will help you hoard the same savings as depositors. Increasingly high profit margins. You can sell or hold your own. Invest in bitcoin.

I think BTC is in early stages and attracting a lot of people so it´s in a very exponential growth stage. We saw in the DOT.com bubble that anyone would be a stock investor but mainly in the US and Europe. what we are seeing in BTC is that anyone in the world can invest and you are not expected to invest 1000´s like in stocks. So every single citizen in the world can start with even a few sats make this a truly global market with a lot of growth potencial.

For me Bitcoin is better than real estate for its flexibility to be sold and bought. It is better than stocks for somehow the same reason. One can not buy a stock like he buys a crypto-currency. He needs first to be in the working hours and days. Also, even though it is changing in some places, you still need to make a call to your bank each time you want to buy and sell. What a pain ! Crypto-currencies offer a welcome flexibility.

For me both stocks and cryptocurrency are the best, I can easily trade stocks through online broker same with bitcoin thru crypto exchanges. Although I agree that those two paper assets are better compare to real estate. Stocks and bitcoin are more liquid than real estate but for me if you have much money to use then really better to have those 3 great investment, since all of them are good for long term purposes and you should diversify your money to lessen the risk.

Does the fact that bitcoin work as a universal currency effect the overall value?
The fact that bitcoin can work as a universal currency like USD somehow affects the overall value. Some people buy it for the purpose of buying an item online, and somehow the most convenient way to pay online when a store accepts bitcoin is btc itself. Although people tend to use bitcoin nowadays for speculative purposes, because of the said reason above the fact that it works as a universal currency helps to boost it's current value to a great extent.
Because bitcoin market cap goes higher,higher than anything else.This shows how our economy evolving even in digital world.Bitcoin has already beaten golds marketcap this is the reason it is better than stocks.

In the traditional investment systems  there are areas like stock exchange, real estates, commodity market, forex market. Then there are hedge funds, mutual funds, equity, debentures. Next in line are precious metals like Gold, silver, diamond. Years after year and decades after decades when mainstream economics was convincing people that how one of above is better than other as it is giving returns in the range of 8% to 9% at max 10-13% a new revolution named bitcoin is rising and spreading across the world. Bitcoin has defied all conventional knowledge about return on interest. Surviving each negative publicity and doubts, incidents like mt. gox and still growing better than ever.

What do you think why bitcoin is the best investment than stocks, real-estate, gold or any other conventional investment?

As what you stated, it is the return of investment that make people attracted to be involved with bitcoin and other cryptocurrency. Comparing the rate of return in between industries or sectors will make you more convince to invest in bitcoin even though many are still doubtful about it because of its volatility. It has turned many young millionaires compared to investing in stocks or real estate where you have to wait few years or decades to have a rate of return the same with bitcoin in just a year. Though it is not advisable to invest only in cryptocurrency because it is still risky and we should always diversified our investments to avoid losing all you have because of a fortuitous event happening.

bitcoin today is in high demand and it is also a new trend in investing that is why the price is soaring high, but if we compare its market capitalization bitcoin was just a very very small like less than .1 percent when all stocks and real estate combined.it is still not widely acceptable to the masses so i can say that it is far less better than other commodities, but the more people trust bitcoin today, but didn't know what the future it could take.

Bitcoin is better than stocks and real-estate because it gives higher percentage of income also only in bitcoin investment you can have the lowest risk of failure. It grows rapidly and it really gives a brighter future to a lot of people in addition one thing I love with bitcoin is that it don't require higher amount of investment you can start little by little.

The obvious answer is the people trust bitcoin. As a result the price goes up. Just within a year the price increase is 10 times.  Grin Without the people putting their money bitcoin cannot reach what it it today.
It's just the same with stocks if a certain stock is trusted by the people then people will put their money to it and that stock price will skyrocket.

The first reason that i see is that people could join bitcoin without capital investment to involve.By starting slowly in the campaigns, they could earned slowly but surely and will have the opportunity to become rich with out spending any penny. The second reason is we could have this investment without paying any tax at the moment and enjoy this benefits as long as bitcoin is not declared legal in a certain country in which most of the countries in the world did not legalize bitcoin but not ban.

Bitcoin is a very profitable asset,but we can`t compare it with stocks and real estate.
Sooner or later the tremendous btc growth will slow down or even stop and we have to be ready.
This might happen after a few years or maybe next year.
Some assets provide less risk and less profit and other more profit and more risk.Bitcoin doesn`t fit anywhere and i can`t consider btc  a risky asset.This will change in the future.
In its purest form bitcoin is a currency. However in todays world bitcoin is developed into the commodity or investment tool. So When it comes to investment in best asset for best results we could compare the bitcoin with other assets like real-estate, stock market, metals. As far as growth rate is considered we don't know how it move, neither at what rate it will move. Bitcoin and overall cryptocurrencies are unpredictable. Though we need to understand that everything listed on https://coinmarketcap.com is not currency. There are some tokens as well.
There will be slowndown in growth and acceptance of bitcoin as well. However we do not know when. Till then get rich till you can.
Bitcoin is better than stock and real estate because it is currency and an asset at the same time. Some people use bitcoin as a currency and others  save bitcoins as an asset. Bitcoin was designed to be a currency that is fast, secure, decentralized and to be acceptable worldwide. People are now using bitcoin as a global currency where they can send or receive money anywhere in the world instantly. Bitcoin is helping people do business with one another in no time around the globe, and without the third parties involved.
Yes Bitcoin can do a fast transaction wherever we are that's why it become useful and valuable when the days continue to past. Bitcoin is also a good investment than other because they can provide a big profit whether we hold it or trade it because we know bitcoin is a profitable asset and also currency that can connect people worldwide.

Well this is the 3rd thread I have seen regarding this anyways, well everyone decides what they are comfortable in and that depends upon the market that is able to go through all ypur expectations, well I personally feel that Bitcoins are better than stock market in terms of investment because:-

They let you earn even if you have nothing to invest and then you can think about Saving up those.

They are more transparent and you don't need that much documentation to start investing in Bitcoins.

Like in stock market when you have to really start investing ..you usually first have to pay fee then.. you have to give necessary documents for withdrawal.. its a cumbersome process and genuinely very long, you need papers and many more things. Where as in bitcoins anyone can invest without indulging in all this.

In stock market you can't .. Really.. point out your stocks as commodity, where as in bitcoins they for sure work as an asset.. you can exchange them whenever you want pay through them and.. its all acceptable.

There are many other points too but I think these will be enough.

I won't entirely say that bitcoin is better than any other conventional investment asset. Probably it has outrun any other investment asset in terms of growth and return but it is risky as well. Bitcoin price is very dynamic and can fluctuate from one end to another in no time. So if anyone is looking for a safe investment option for capital protection, bitcoin is not a good and wise choice for him.

Instead bitcoin is a best fit for aggressive investors who are willing and also capable to handle losses. Today bitcoin is riding high positivity and hence we are seeing this exponential growth of bitcoin price. It may happen in future, that all governments ban bitcoin and declares it illegal. The price will automatically go down to the lowest possible level. So bitcoin can definitely provide higher return than any other conventional investment but may not be the best choice for everyone.

Don't let others control your BTC -> self custody

Have you heard of startups? They are known to generate more than those 10-20 % a year, but you never know if they will succeed. It's more or less a gamble, just like people were gambling with BTC in the early stages. In 2010 you were paying a few $ for it, but you never knew if those few $ will ever bring profit. Back then BTC was just a subject to talk about among cryptography enthusiasts and programmers.

Compared to real estate it produces much greater profits, but it's not a physical good. You can buy a big house, live in it and rent out rooms at the same time. With BTC you just  owe a digital proof that can be traded via an exchange, much like stocks.
Bitcoin has been named the gold rush of the 21st century for a reason. There's nothing better that you could do with your money in the early 2017!

In.bitcoin you can invest much smaller amount of money than in real estate or stock and at the end you can have great profit. Biger profit for smaller investment. Real estate market changes all the time and it's not easy to always pick the right property that will bring you profit and usualy you have to wait a long time for that. With bitcoin you can see the profit right here, right now, on a short term basis and on long term too. And you can do everything from your living room, don't have to go around and see huge number of real eststes for investment until you find the right one.

This apparently says everything that is needed to know. Bitcoin is also a valued asset among other functions it has, just like all the things that has been mentioned and truly just like you have said, the profit most especially at this stage is pretty high and the thing is that we have not even seen anything yet cause there are much more possibilities of boom in upcoming years.

Investors look for profit and anything that can give much more profit is what they always delve into which is just pretty normal.

Bitcoin the most profit investment in 2017 but it can't compare to real eastate or stock.
As when you are rich with bitcoin people will switch to keep their money in real estate or stocks.
you know why...
Everyone has his own point of view but I think otherwise. I believe in this thing that at the very present moment, bitcoin is the best way of investing your money as compared to any other investment may it be investing in stocks or real estate.

It is because of the reason that bitcoin is having a major hold in the market and there are number of investors who are switching from other investments to investing in bitcoin.
