I was in the same spot, wondering where to put my money. After looking into it, I decided on gold. It's been around forever and feels more stable. Gold is something you can actually hold, which feels safer than the digital world of BTC. Plus, gold's price doesn't jump around as much as cryptocurrency does, so it feels like a steadier choice for my money.
You're actually talking about trust ? I guess you're referring to cryptocurrency not bitcoin cause people who invested on some random coin never had the chance to make profit but bitcoin investment works different. Well, this is your choice but it would have been more better if you made your choice without mentioning bitcoin when you have no idea about the price volatility. I guess comparing a stable price with fluctuating price, people will have to choose a stable price. The reason why people choose bitcoin as an investment choice is the volatility nature of bitcoin and besides you need to understand how the market works before investing so I will not blame anyone who keep talking about price fluctuation.
