Scarcity marks the difference.

Gold is not scarce, new gold is found all the time, thus its price can only go down over time.

Bitcoin is scarce, it's hard-capped to 21M coins, thus its price can only go up over time.

Conclusion: Forget #Gold. #Bitcoin is all you need!

Actually it's not that simple. The amount of gold that comes into existence is a somewhat steady percentage per year. That percentage, although deflacionary is below the rate of devaluation for fiat. So although not a good investment,.it's a reasonable store of value.
