with so much fake gold out there, I would walk away with bitcoins. Chances are the gold was tungsten filled
I agree.. You will also risk your life bringing the gold in your pocket. I would rather walk with Bitcoin too.
Of course any sane person would not think of walking around with gold in their pocket, you can though safely walk around with an encrypted paper wallet in your pocket(BUT with a back-up at somewhere safe), so even if you end up losing it, you can get hold of your coins through your back up, you can't do that with Gold.
lol, what the hell is fake gold. don't buy from the black market maybe! as long as you purchase gold from a legit place you don't need to worry about it being fake, it happens when you buy from a shady place instead.
