I have many bitcoins I'm wanting to cash out, but I'm debating whether I should do it for gold, or for USD. The possibility of the bitcoin price crashing scares me, whereas it seems impossible for gold to lose all value.
What do you hold the bulk of your wealth in?
It's been a while but I hope you make good profits and sold at ATH, the best option for everyone is official currency of your country obviously as you can easily convert and spend it. If you live in USA, US dollar it is, different story for someone who lives in UK or China.
Second : depends on your purpose, for long term savings, gold and land are the best investment. But bitcoin still become good way to saving your wealth too, so divide into some options and you will be fine. So far, I still believe on bitcoin as my future savings, let's wait for another 5 years.
