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.
No. the gold is a different market and so does the bitcoin. the bitcoin can also serve as a digital store of value just like gold even better but the gold market is very strong to be taken away by bitcoin for now. to some people, bitcoin is the new gold 2.0 and to some, the bitcoin is nothing but a joke.
