Im not saying gold doesnt have some decent applications in various industries, but lets not hype it up too much here.  Sure, gold has a few specific uses where its special properties really shine.  But calling it the ideal replacement for all other metals? Thats going a little overboard.  No doubt gold resists corrosion like a champ.  But its also incredibly soft and malleable - not exactly what you want when you need strength and structure.  In those cases, steel still reigns supreme and  even looking at conductivity yes gold conducts electricity excellently.  But so does cheaper, easier to find copper.  And think about lightweight materials for aerospace and things like that.  There are so many examples where gold just doesnt cut it. After all, it is still just a metal with its own properties, and those properties are not always advantageous.

I will pick team digital gold because the future is going digital and gold will not be left out. There are people who believe that soon everything like assets will be tokenized. Traditional gold will not loose it's value though, I just feel he digital will be more valuable, will be easier to move around and secure, and those will be part of the appeals that will attract people to it.

In 2024, Bitcoin perform better than gold, in term of year to date return Bitcoin make 150% versus 16% for gold, supported by institutional adoptions and products such as Bitcoin ETFs, which have amassed $100 billion in investments. In an unpredictable economic cycles, Gold is certainly a better in its very industrial uses and stability, however, the increasing momentum of Bitcoin with corporations, Wall Street, and as a hedge against inflation make Bitcoin a good alternative option. Although it has existed for some time now as one of the means of preserving wealth, Bitcoin boasts unique features in a digitally driven world, possibly earning its place and challenging gold for space within portfolios.

You'd be surprised to see just how many gold-backed altcoins are out there. Most of them offer the same thing, without giving any solution if someone wants to convert or liquidate their token to physical gold. I believe that's one of the reasons why the volume/demand for such tokens is low unless you live near the dealer. Easy access to liquidity is a bottleneck that is hard to solve since it includes multiple national laws. Bitcoin on the other hand is usually much simpler. I'd prefer Bitcoin instead of digital gold, especially if the source for that is an overseas company that has no branch in my country.

I suggest to not focus on market cap. This is a false issue.

The issue I suggest to focus on is: is BTC going to be considered as GOLD, a Store of Value? If yes, when?

Thank you

With the trust that Tesla and MicroStrategy company put into bitcoin, and its growing adoption that continues to takes place, that proves that there’s no doubt bitcoin can surpass gold in the future. In fact, it could be the volatility of bitcoin itself that will serve as a key to surpass the achievement of gold.

However, both have the same high potentials but different form of assets. Instead of making such comparison that puts gold better than bitcoin, or the vice versa, it’s more suitable if we let bitcoin complement the existence of gold rather than trying to advertise that bitcoin could replace gold in the future, which only depends on how the people will adopt bitcoin and create widespread acceptance on it.

I totally agree with you. For the newer generations it's easier to to buy bitcoin because it's something they can somehow relate more to their life, gold sounds kind of dated. Or at least I see it this way. And nothing wrong buying gold, absolutely, but I have no doubts about what to buy, bitcoin all the time over gold. Let's not forget social media and influencers that, whether we like it or not, play a big role, and the new generations have way more probabilities to find someone who talks about bitcoin rather than gold.

And with how this companies are it will help the price of bitcoin to go higher because Tesla is actually a big company and they already do dodge and some time ago I heard they invested in dodge but I don't know how true it is, and both companies and individuals are seriously adopting bitcoin and all is because of how bitcoin have been taking shape this period and it is actually a good one I noticed something people will not invest when the price is down they will invest when the price is already high, I wonder how those people actually because this is something they should have understood buying the dip give more advantage to make more money.


And even if bitcoin eventually surpasses gold, there is no way that gold will vanish out of the market because of how gold is been valued it is also used for jewelries so this are all part of why gold will continue to be gold, comparing is not even important if you want to do gold do gold and if you want to do bitcoin do bitcoin it is actually a free world so anyone can choose which ever one they want to invest in, if it's gold they should go ahead and if it's bitcoin they are very free to invest.

With time, everything in human beings changes. Since ancient times, people have been very attracted to gold. It was valuable and still existed, but if we consider advantages in the current world, then we will put Bitcoin ahead of gold. The price of gold increases very slowly, whereas Bitcoin has the ability to increase much more than it in a short period of time. Moreover, there is no limitation in the price of gold, where if new minerals are found, the amount of gold will increase.

But the amount of Bitcoin will remain the same. That is why the demand for Bitcoin is very high. Moreover, the benefits that people get by using Bitcoin are not possible by using gold. Bitcoin is very easy to carry, which is not possible in the case of gold. We can definitely say that Bitcoin is a digital gold which is more expensive and attractive than gold.
