For me personally, the utility of Bitcoin is simpler and easier to use than gold, this is just according to my experience. And I will share my friend's real experience using Bitcoin as a gift from her boyfriend abroad.
My friend is female, she has a Spanish boyfriend (different country). When her boyfriend visits our place, he always uses his Binance account for transactions with my female friend, sometimes using USDT and sometimes using Bitcoin.
Her boyfriend said it was simple and easy to use Bitcoin, even wherever I can use Bitcoin for payments by selling it and exchanging it for Fiat such as USDT etc., and then withdrawing it to local Bank .
* I censor the name, place and location because this is the privacy of my female friend and her boyfriend from Spain.
