I do not know why they say gold is better than bitcoin, while bitcoin transactions are spreading in their midst.
My speculation, maybe they do not know bitcoin or do not know how to use bitcoin, when in fact they admit that bitcoin is better than gold.
I also think so that group of people don't have any idea about Bitcoin, one thing can happen that they don't have any trust in this platform. but I believe that Bitcoin is better than gold because of its lucrative price.
Day by day Bitcoin is becoming a popular platform and people are getting dependent on this system. I also believe that gold seems to be an older version for saving and investment. so that Bitcoin is the latest addition to keep your future in safe.
