Before interstellar migration truly becomes a reality, traditional forces' asset control measures will pose many challenges to digital assets. Although Bitcoin is touted as unfreezeable, it faces a more covert risk—being labeled. Once certain Bitcoins are tagged, they could be locked when converted into stablecoins. In comparison, physical gold has obvious advantages. It can preserve and increase value, and also meet people's privacy needs—holding it discreetly if you don't want to show off, or wearing it as jewelry if you want to display—balancing privacy and vanity. The competition between digital assets and traditional assets is far more complex than it appears on the surface. Technical features are just one aspect; regulatory frameworks and asset attributes are the decisive factors.

Gold is gold. No matter how much you hype Bitcoin, it can't beat this... Someone should have clarified that long ago.

Gold is truly the ultimate, and the way the crypto world marks risk is indeed the best. We still need to stick to something practical.

Gold really is quite unique. I didn't expect Bitcoin to be tagged like this; it is indeed a bit frightening.

Compared to gold, Bitcoin's "cannot be frozen" claim does seem a bit exaggerated... Being marked is indeed a hidden risk.

Gold is truly unbeatable, as it can resist censorship and flaunt wealth. The narrative around Bitcoin is still too naive in the face of regulation.
