Agree bitcoin is much better if you are risk taker but if you want is safest investment is you would choose gold.
But me i choose to hold bitcoin because it has a big possibility to make me rich in a few year by doing investment which you can not get in gold.
if you risk taker certainly you will buy altcoin rather than bitcoin, bitcoin buyers just play it safe and do not want complicated while gold only for investors who do not know about technology.
Ya .If you not want to take risk means,just get into bitcoin. Bitcoin is the best place to inverse your money. Risk taker may get into some other Altcoin. If the price of that altcoin is increase means,you will get that much profit.But inverse in gold will give gives you a one time profit. But inverse in bitcoin give much profit than a gold.
