Nobody can predict the future of Bitcoin, even Satoshi Nakamoto as a Bitcoin creator would not think Bitcoin could reached
an all time high of up to $ 19,000. So I believe the Bitcoin market cap can exceed Gold, we just need to be patient. As long
as the demand for Bitcoin increases, one day it can be reached the Bitcoin market cap will pass through Gold.

I wonder how far many people's optimism about bitcoin goes, just looking at the current difference and applications of gold and bitcoin we can see that the market capitalization of bitcoin will not exceed the capitalization of the gold market. See how many people buy gold to make necklaces and show off on social media, other millionaires buy gold to keep in the coffers ... there are dozens of things people do with gold, but in the case of bitcoin people will buy bitcoin to make Hodl and use it as a means of payment if the volatility is not very high and that will not attract thousands of people around the world as gold does


people will forget about it in a few months


this is just another illusion that we see every time the price increases.

If the full potential of bitcoin is unleached and it became a recognised currency then the price can go up much and bitcoin will be as valuable as gold but its hard to do because the world system will not allow such big transactions out of their hands because bitcoin is decentralised and if they can not control all that money then i believe they will not allow btc to be an official currency.

It is very clear that Bitcoin is very valuable, have great potentials and its value grows all the time, but looking at Gold, it is an asset that has been from time immemorial, its value grows all the time, countries stores it, companies stores it all because of its value. What I am pointing out is, Bitcoin will have it tough overtaking Gold; another limiting factor of Bitcoin, is its high volatility which is very low in the aspect of Gold. So in my own opinion, it is not a robust statement to say, because countries are still finding it hard to adopt Bitcoin because they can't control it while most people are still skeptical about it because of its volatility (although this will change with time) but same cannot be said of Gold.
