Just got some information/news that people are selling $100,000 in Bitcoins to buy gold. The money they are getting by selling Bitcoins is used to buy Gold
Gold is the safest investment. See the link
The decision is in your own hands, indeed some people are selling their btc and turning to gold investing and there are also some who survive. So, I think personally mending hold btc because gold may not necessarily also be a safe investment place Gold is the safest investment. See the link
and if bitcoin is really down to $8,500, I will still buy bitcoin but I will gold too so I can have another investment in real life and I can show to my family that I have 2 type of investment. the option is up to you and only you that will know which is the best that will work for you and maybe the other people are only buying bitcoin without buying gold because they believe that bitcoin will increase higher.
