Bitcoin is not digital gold, it's more like the ultimate asset of the virtual world

Gold belongs to the era of Earth, Bitcoin belongs to the era of networks
Gold solves value storage in the physical world, Bitcoin solves ownership confirmation, transfer, and self-custody in the digital world
To put it bluntly, gold is strong in physical properties
Bitcoin is strong in network properties
So you can draw comparisons with gold, but don't overdo it
Bitcoin is not a replica of gold, it's more like a value anchor point of a new era
I'll compress this paragraph into a version more suitable for posting:
Calling Bitcoin directly "digital gold" isn't actually very rigorous
Gold has multiple attributes: jewelry, industrial, consumption, reserves, and investment
Bitcoin has none of these real-world uses
What Bitcoin is truly strong at is not being like gold
Rather, it can be self-custodied, transferred globally, requires no permission for verification, has a fixed total supply, and is programmable
So Bitcoin is not an on-chain replacement for gold
It's more like the ultimate asset of the digital world
Gold belongs to the physical world
Bitcoin belongs to the network world
