A lot of people seem to think gold is the answer to all our problems. Every time the economy takes a turn for the worst, people turn to gold. {They invest in gold to hedge against these problems} If you
do not buy physical gold items/ornaments/jewelry/gold bars ... you still have ZERO protection against anything. It is just a piece of paper and a ledger entry on a private database. People seem to think
that there are tons of gold stored in secret vaults under government buildings. Is this true?

60 years old. } You have the only entry to your investment, when you invest in Bitcoin. { The private key } The proof that it exist, is on a public blockchain....

In modern world. Bitcoin popularity is increasing then gold. It's price is also stable then gold. Moreover you can also use bitcoin to buy stuff just like money so that is a perk that gold doesn't offer you.
