Because the value of Bitcoin is voltaile in the market but gold price is always solid from many years. With in short period of time the value of Bitcoin increased vastly. So people are suggesting gold is better than Bitcoin.
because they not know about bitcoin . if they are know about bitcoin, i'm sure they will choose bitcoin is better than gold to investment in long term
Actually today I watched a video on facebook which is about spending bitcoin and gold in USA,it says it is difficult to spend bitcoin but some places are accepting bitcoins accepting as payment like supermarket,restaurants and some institutions.But no one accepting gold as payment then why still people says gold is better?
Maybe because gold has been here since like the start of our planet. People are trading since then using Gold. And I think it will not disappear.

Gold is forever. If we have gold we can sell it anywhere thru pawnshops or you may go directly to your central bank list and change it directly to fiat anytime. We cannot say bitcoin is forever specially that the price is fluctuating and it will always depend on the internet in which if internet will gone so the bitcoin will gone too like in event of a world war III in which a nuclear war that have capability to destroy everything including the internet but gold can be use anytime and anywhere.
Actually I thought it's diamonds that are forever. If you look at gold and Bitcoin as a store of value then gold has many advantages.
1) Its less risky
2) Its more stable
3) works when you don't have internet access
4) in the unlikely event of a power grid failure, gold is still accessible.
5) don't have to worry about sending to the wrong address and losing it into oblivion
6) It can be used by people who are not tech savy, although Bitcoin has become a little better in this regard lately
7) you can hold it in your hand- seriously have you ever held a 1oz gold coin... It's a pretty cool feeling.
People says gold is better maybe because in the verry beginning gold is already there with greater value and gold is a tangible kind of asset unlike bitcoin it is just a currency online but the same with gold bitcoin now has a greater value.

I think people say that gold is better because it is more stable, and asides from having a stable price that increases in time, it also has a big value in the market, you can never lose if you choose gold and that is for sure, compared to cryptocurrencies that are so unstable.
and when you say gold the standard of it are really good than this cryptocurrency and more people are wanted to have this cause the value of gold in the market are more high and most trust than digital currencies.

Once again, the purpose of gold is different from that of Bitcoin. Gold is not meant to increase our investments or to give good returns. It is a medium to store our wealth and protect it from depreciation. But Bitcoin is an investment asset which may or may not give good returns at regular intervals. One more difference is that Bitcoin is suitable for all types of investors, while gold is preferable to the more well off.

It is true that the gold is better than bitcoin. The price of the gold is very stable while the price of the bitcoin is too volatile. Many people are still want to have gold than bitcoins. 
Because they are old school. Also because gold's price is not volatile compare to bitcoin. Also gold because gold is physical, they can hold it compare to crypto currencies that is digital or virtual money. But my opinion is crypto currencies are much better than gold, in terms of investment.
People will say gold is better because gold has a relatively stable price than Bitcoin. 
Many investors buy gold to hedge against the decline of a currency. As a currency falls, it creates higher prices in imports and inflation. Gold prices spike when the stock market crashes. Others continue to buy gold because they see it as a finite valuable substance with many industrial uses. Last but not least, gold is held by many governments and wealthy individuals.
Gold has intrinsic value. It's a good thing to have, silver as well. I have about thirty ounces of both. Gold has been trading sideways for a bit but I think it's a good idea to have. I plan on holding it for twenty years. No taxes to pay when buying gold. I know Bitcoin is the God here but not much diversification is talked about here. Stocks, real estate, gold and silver. That's what I do. I've survived dips and crashes by not panicking although I tend not to sell at the top. Bitcoin I'm doing differently I'm taking some profit. Gold is good. Everyone should have some.

A lot of people are not convinced of Bitcoin because they are scared. This is due to the ancient way of thinking, there is a barrier in their brains that they can not overcome. They prefer traditional methods of payment.
my question is why do people still compare bitcoin to gold?
Bitcoin is beneficial that gold in terms of investment and returns safety and control. But still many peoples prefer gold, it is due to traditional thinking they have. Investment in gold is conventional way of investment and going further for next many years, because of its secure returns. Still now many peoples have doubt about security of bitcoin and hence they prefer gold rather than it.
Gold is a more reliable asset. You can't help but agree with the fact that gold does not lose its value for millennia. It is a reliable asset. Bitcoin is a novelty. We don't know what will happen in the future. Bitcoin pumped a large amount of speculative capital. This makes it very risky.
Gold through the centuries has positioned itself as the best way to safeguard the value of an investment, Its value does not fluctuate exponentially through time, thereby generating confidence and security thus becoming the best option (more profitable) for the user. While the bitcoin, It's still difficult to understand for many people.
they say that because the introduction of digital currencies is not so well digested, and usually people like them can only or believe in investing in gold, which they consider to be profitable in every year, whereas if they invest in bitcoins other than the ease of transacting bitcoin can provide an advantage at all times,,but they do not know that
Those how say that gold is better, they doesn't about bitcoin extremely well and the characteristics of the bitcoin. They believes that gold is important from long time so it is better while they doesn't know the estimation of the bitcoin in the advanced market and furthermore the ascending in the rate of the estimation of bitcoin. Bitcoin and gold both are not comparable both are different in it category itself. Gold is precious metal and ornament Bitcoin is cryptocurrency so don't confuse yourself. Bitcoin can be used as investment giving good multifold returns where you hold your investment in gold it wont appreciate like bitcoin returns.
they are juxtaposing bitcoin and gold as a place to invest .. not as an asset ,, both can say where investing .. but only differ in profit, bitcoin is more flexible while gold is more stable
Both bitcoin and gold require expertise for correct long-term storage, gold wins because cryptocurrencies are vulnerable to hacking through online wallets or users’ computers or smartphones. Cryptocurrencies are also subject to regulatory risks, and network and infrastructure risks during a crisis.
