I keep hearing people call Bitcoin “digital gold.”
But gold has been around for thousands of years, and Bitcoin is only ~16 years old.

Do you think Bitcoin can really replace gold as a store of value — or should they just complement each other?

I’m curious what older members here think!
Gold is being mined constantly and no one can say how much its supply can be, yet its price is very high in the world market and the demand is very high and gold is said to be more powerful than money. In the physical world, people think of land and gold as powerful assets. But in the digital world, Bitcoin is very expensive like gold and a big advantage of Bitcoin is that the total max supply of Bitcoin is determined and everyone knows how much Bitcoin will be mined at the maximum. And according to the supply of Bitcoin, the global population is many times more. So if the demand for Bitcoin increases in the world market, its supply will never catch up, so as time goes by and the demand increases, the price of Bitcoin continues to increase. Bitcoin is already pumping incredibly. And people's weakness towards Bitcoin is increasing. I will not say that Bitcoin is better than gold in terms of investment because gold is much less volatile but Bitcoin is much more volatile so although it is possible to make big profits very quickly in Bitcoin there is a lot of risk here due to which if someone is able to take this risk then Bitcoin will definitely be better than gold because Bitcoin can yield much more profit compared to all other assets at the same time.
