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.
that is what I am thinking too may be they don't really know what bitcoin really is. but then maybe they say that gold is better that bitcoin because bitcoin is volatile as it is cryptocurrency while gold has a fixed value it only increases by time. in the first place for me there is no reason to compare gold to bitcoin as they have completely diferent purpose in the world. I mean bitcoin we earn without investmetn while in gold you need to invest.
I think both of them are better but its depends on the people which they want, but I admit bitcoin is better than gold because I use bitcoin I can have much profit than selling gold, but gold is better interms of holding it because its value is also rising day by day like bitcoin.
