Competing with Gold is definitely hard, but possible. One milestone has been beaten, the next is on the way!
Gold's already below bitcoin when it comes to prices so that's a milestone that's been beaten a long time ago. What bitcoin needs to do next is get to the 2nd if not the 1st place of the highest stock price in history, bitcoin if treated like a stock is currently at 3rd place with the 4th place lagging at a really large difference, come one dream bigger than that, bitcoin is the greatest investment in the making in my opinion, I don't know if anyone's called bitcoin that but I believe that it's going to be that when it topples the Berkshire Hathaway stock price in the future.
