Is Bitcoin the Next Gold?

Gold has the upper hand in terms of history, stability, and real-world utility. It’s been a store of value for thousands of years, is widely accepted, and isn’t as volatile as Bitcoin. In times of economic uncertainty, gold is still the go-to safe haven.
However, Bitcoin has advantages in terms of portability, scarcity (fixed supply of 21 million), and decentralization.
It depends on what you’re looking for—stability or high-reward potential.
I completely agree with this. Its all about stability and the high reward.

Do you think it 'll really break past $100k soon?
According to me, predicting BTC price with certainty is impossible. BTC is currently experiencing a period of price fluctuation and the $100K mark is a significant psychological barrier. Breaking through it could signal strong momentum. It's crucial to stay informed and make investment decisions based on your own risk tolerance and research.

I think the same that BTC stuck in limbo between $92k & $107k resistance breaking the barrier can increase momentum but have to keep on the market.
Personally, I don’t think Bitcoin is the "next gold", but I do see where the comparison comes from. Gold has been around for centuries, and it’s a reliable option when it comes to storing value. Bitcoin, though - it’s more like a new player in the game that’s got potential but still figuring out its place. Sure, it’s scarce, decentralized, and cool because it’s digital, but it’s way more volatile than gold.
