More than the entire Marketcap of Bitcoin

There are some areas which show the importance of bitcoin more than the gold. Bitcoin is a better macro indicator than the gold. In political issues like trade wars, it has proven to be a more responsive and active digital currency. In the trade war of US-China, it had provided a little solace and proved its value.
Critics view
The critics say that though gold has proven its worth as a stable store of value it still does not seem to fit in our new digital economic community. Bitcoin being the leading cryptocurrency and the safe-haven asset can be a proper substitute of gold in the new digital economy.
Both of these assets can get the appreciation at the same rate around 2048 if the leading cryptocurrency follows of the market capitalization of gold.
Conclusion
Bitcoin is hopeful to become a proper store of value in the future but it will take much more than this for the cryptocurrency to grow and get one-fourth of gold’s dominance.
