Gold in general is no better. The value of gold is nothing more than a result of a global consensus - at the moment everyone agrees to consider gold a measure of value, simply because this measure is in some form or another necessary. If we assume a utopian situation, that tomorrow everyone agrees that gold is not such a measure, then it will be good only for the production of quality wires and trinkets.
The btc is gaining momentum for exactly the same reason - the global consensus towards the btc is constantly being strengthened. In this case, unlike gold, the cue-ball is not only a measure of value, but also a settlement system, and gold is not a competitor for this parameter.
I think dont let us compare the two thing which is gold and bitcoin to each other, because first of all this two thing is different to each other and also they have uniqueness to each other like gold is tangible and usually use to make accessories and any other things and bitcoin usually used online, so there is no reason to compare this two.
