We are living in a time where everything is going in digital and because of this I prefer more bitcoin rather than gold.
Even though the risk is much higher in bitcoin rather than in gold because bitcoin is newer in the market.

gold can also be digital, but i agree gold can not be used like bitcoin and everything need to be as fast as possible today and gold isn't that fast like bitcoin, so definitely a plus for bitcoin

I consider that trading physical gold involves a high risk because it's dangerous in real life.
Bitcoin sometimes is more anonymous and this is another advantage of bitcoin comparing with gold.
no one trades physical gold, i think there are only shares traded online so it is really safe in my opinion

Only millionaires can buy gold bars and their's are safely keep in their vaults. For small timers, we just use trading platforms to get stocks of  gold.  What we have are just papers. It is safe as long as you are trading on a proper and safe venue. I think both gold and bitcoin have their advantages. So why not just get them both and enjoy the profit.
