Yes, people are very attracted to this valuable resource long ago and their attitude remains at the same level even today. We often see a huge difference between the price of Bitcoin and gold rising perhaps that is advantageous for us because there is a greater potential for profit from Bitcoin. Everyone know that the supply of Bitcoin is limited on the other hand, gold is a much more valuable asset to everyone. So at this point it seems that Bitcoin will be able to overcome gold in the near future but in the present situation it may not be possible. We can compare this company's market cap to see that Gold is still far ahead because its market cap is still much higher.

Great to see them progressively thinking about the current situation and taking action toward becoming a country that encourages BTC, rather than putting lots of stop signs for such actions.

Gold for instability, BTC - when it turns out to become the confidence.

Ying and yang of both worlds.

Well, interest/demand for Bitcoin is surging among institutional investors and governments alike. Some governments (like the US government) are planning to sell their Gold reserves to buy more Bitcoin. El Salvador already made BTC a legal tender currency, while it continues to grow its stack of coins. Maybe Gold will be less-appealing to investors as a store of value in the future, as Bitcoin takes over the world by storm. If that happens, Gold will remain a "luxury item" used only for jewelry (a fashion statement).

Like you've said, the future can't be predicted. Who knows? Maybe Gold and Bitcoin will co-exist in the future. Just like how CBDCs will co-exist with crypto. It's a wild and crazy world, so anything's possible.

On top of that you are saying, it is also interesting to point out that Bitcoin is incredibly young still. Not even old enough to vote!

That means that there will be many people that still haven't really consider bitcoin as an investment, and there are more younger people that are arriving to investment age now.

This means that on top of all these companies now starting to invest in bitcoin there will be an increasing amount of people also investing in bitcoin.

Bitcoin has not surpassed Gold for now but it will in the future some set of people are saying it is impossible for Bitcoin to surpass Gold but one thing they forgot is that Gold has been in existence for thousands of years and Bitcoin is just 16 years old but is making this much wave, it will only take time but surely Bitcoin will surpass Gold, there was a time Bitcoin was just $1 and it moved from there to $1k and from there to $10k and to what it is now meaning as time goes on Bitcoin will keep growing more bigger and better with the way things are going now Bitcoin will surpass Gold in no time, more and more people are now becoming interested in Bitcoin investment and even countries are now showing interest in Bitcoin and some has already made a Bitcoin reserve for them self's.
Just like you said Bitcoin is more safe to keep than Gold some people always buy and keep gold for the future and sometimes they get stolen by another person because where they bought it from someone may have seen them and then start tracking them till they stole it from them but it is different in Bitcoin because only you will know that you have a Bitcoin except you decide to tell someone meaning there's more privacy in holding Bitcoin than Gold.

1. Holding bitcoin is simpler and more convenient than holding gold, but not more secure. You can ensure privacy when holding bitcoins but just one accident or carelessness can make your bitcoins hacked or you will lose access forever. The safety of your assets is in your hands, not in bitcoin or gold.

2. Currently, gold's liquidity is still much greater than bitcoin's.

3. This is true for Gen Z (12-27), Millennials (28-43) but I don't think Gen X (44-59) and Baby Boomers (60-78) will have easy access to bitcoin. Meanwhile, they also make up a significant portion of our world's population.

4. An asset that is only 16 years old, small cap, not globally recognized and legal, susceptible to manipulation or can be banned at any time. Do you think it is safer than gold? seriously?

Bitcoin doesn't necessarily have to surpass gold, and that doesn't make it more attractive or cause gold investors to abandon gold to invest in gold.

Bitcoin is widely considered  by many as digital gold, it may not be globally acceptable as gold for now but sure the world is innovating to digital trusted  assets with good store of value, and bitcoin has these features. The adoption of bitcoin is increasingly amazing, and that is because it can be accessed by anyone anywhere in the world provided you have acces to the internet. Bitcoin is yet to break more ATHs after several circles. Analysts believe bitcoin will get to $150k before the next having. However I believe  that bitcoin would be largely accepted by several institutions and countries which will promt an increase in price significantly.

Change is constant and right now the World is on the changing pace and in those days when Trade by Barter was everywhere, there were some commodities that were valued more than the other and today they are nowhere to be found and in the current innovation in the world, bitcoin will definitely surpass Gold in due time. Bitcoin is not rushing to take over the world economy but it is a gradual process to follow.

In the next 10 years to come the world economy will be restructured and many things will change. And once bitcoin became adopted in many countries, things will be starting to change to good for people to enjoy.
