obviously gold would be the safe bet and bitcoin the risky. With gold having had thousands of years of maintained value and bitcoin being a few years old and extremely volatile.
in 1971 gold was $35 an ounce. it went up to over $800 in the early 80's then crashed to around $250. a few years ago it almost hit $2000. it then dropped into the $1,100 range. now what was it you were saying about volatility?
Well said, it's really hard to say which to keep. But, just to be on the safe side I'll keep both if ever. The reason is simple, gold has a secured value even if you'll keep it for a long time. On the other hand, bitcoin has risks. We don't know what will happen in 10 years, though bitcoin has been doing great for the last 5 years, it's value is unpredictable in the long run. But, I still think it's worth taking the risk. It's either you'll hold something worthless or something worth thousands of dollars after 10 years.
to me I have fully trust on both bitcoin as well as on gold. but stil I will like to select bitcoin because from bitcoin I have more chances to make more money. while from Gold we cannot expect such profit, and the reason is that Gold price is too much stable and therefore we cannot expect such a big profit from Gold.
