While I am pleased to be a participant in the whole Bitcoin experiment (and have a decent chunk), I would be very hesitant to dismiss gold, which has a 5000 year + history as the world's premier store of value.

Bitcoin's future history is quite unproven. Gold will do just fine for many years to come.

Buy and hold both!

Gold as a currency represents hopelessness. We should all hope that gold is used for circuits and electronics instead of money.

Gold is actually something tangible that you can hold. Why does it represent hopelessness? I don't follow your point?

Because it is not very useful for shopping and easy to counterfeit. I also think that it is a shame that people need to store their wealth in gold in XXI century. I like gold... on my woman.
