I would choose both, investing in Bitcoin is risky but with high profits, and gold is a relatively stable asset value and less risk when it is available. Nobody that chooses one thing but skips the other ca3to61t should choose both.
both do have the potential and of course vary, the most important thing is we can use gold or bitcoin to look for profit. maybe the difference is only the level of profit and also the risk, but for me both can provide benefits if we are able to understand the investment
Being practical, you'll choose gold then if you're good in technical analysis and wanted a deeper investment, go for bitcoin. I'm always seeing a comparison between these two and I agree that these things are just the same, both have risk and profit.
But the requirements needed in bitcoin were high and should invest more time to learn it 'cause impossible to have a profit if you don't have learnings on it unless you have a mentor.
