I think your view is not right, Bitcoin and gold are essentially different, can not be compared to each other. Gold exists in physical form, can hold and grasp, and BTC is electronic currency, contained by e-wallet. The most important thing is that the amount of gold is infinite and the amount of BTC is finite. So saying BTC is gold I do not see correctly. Just about the holding habit is that people are always looking to hold BTC as well as Gold and wait for the price to rise to make profit then continue to buy gold when prices fall to hold. With the value of BTC much larger than the amount of gold, it should be said that BTC is new gold is absolutely no basis.
