I've bought bitcoin and some altcoins. I'm also interested in buying gold and I might buy a small amount. The biggest problem I see with gold is that if you have a lot of it, how do you store it? I doubt I would want lots of it in my house.
Gold vs. Bitcoin. Perhaps the most obvious difference between Gold and Bitcoin is this: Gold is a tangible physical Precious Metal, whereas Bitcoin is digital. Yet the distinctions between the two run much deeper.
