In addition to the price, you still need to assess the possible risks. When investing in gold, they are much less than when investing in cryptocurrency. And this is very important for investors.
It is quite understandable. Low-risk investment assets such as treasury bonds and bullion (including gold) usually give low annual returns. If you want greater returns, then you need to go for HYIPs and other high-risk investments such as Bitcoin.
Its better to invest in bitcoin instead of investing in any hyips where the chances of getting cheated are very high as most of the sites turns out to be a scam in long run and you also don't have control on your funds but if you have bitcoin then you can sell it anytime you want to make profits.
