I was expecting you to finish up your comment with the process of buying and selling gold, since you already analysed how easy it is to access bitcoin and also selling it at the same time, but the truth is that, aside from gold plated guweries I haven't seen real pour gold before, so that shows how unaccessible gold can be compared to bitcoin.
I will still accept statements such as bitcoin being the digital gold, and bitcoin performing the rule of alternative to all traditional old assets in terms of everything scalable.
The process of buying and selling gold varies widely especially from country basis, in certain countries you can only buy them from banks and in others you can see jewelry shops that also sells gold blocks and coins. I am not sure where you're from but here in my place buying and selling is fairly simple but have to pay taxes while buying and selling if we do it in right way. And the availability of 99.999% gold is almost around every corner where you can buy and sell gold at the current market price.
Both are profitable assets but the only difference is that you end up selling gold quite lower than its original price but with bitcoin, its value is likely to appreciate more so you will end up selling bitcoin at a higher price compared to the first you bought it.
However, when it comes to selling them, knowing bitcoin is more expensive than gold, I think you will sell gold faster than bitcoin just buy dropping it in nearby pawnshops, but with bitcoin, if you want to sell a large portion of it, it may take some time before you can find a good and reasonable buyer that will stick to your own price, not their price.
Gold is not that profitable in the last 10 years but it has been stable all the time and that's the difference between bitcoin and gold.
You have gold rate changes every day and that is the same all across the country unless your state includes any excess taxes on buying and selling so there is no need to sell your gold for lower price than the market rate unless you are talking about gold jewelry which is not pure gold. Hence, you only get the price for gold in the gold jewelry.
So anyone buying gold as an investment should only buy blocks/coins.
