If you're being practical, buy a gold for a good and trusted investment because that's a physical quantity. If there's a huge crisis in our country, lock down of internet, servers shutdown, and war, probably this gold might help me to bring me up again. But if you're really being practical, buy some property, I assure you it's way more better to gain profit.
Maybe the other will back to the gold but i think many people still love crypto because of the huge profit for this. But gold is for the safety investment and for long term. If you will back to gold dont forget the crypto too like bitcoin that make a many people rich.
Loving crypto makes it bad, there is no always huge and stable profit in cryptocurrency. I agree that crypto and gold will make an great evolution to the digital money.
