This is one of the most common topics on this and other similar forums. Most people will even now say that gold is more important to our physical world than virtual bitcoin. However, it is hardly worth comparing them with each other. In fact, these are almost opposite financial assets. Gold is reliable, it has been used by people as a measure of value and a means of payment for many millennia, and bitcoin is still a little over ten years old. It's too early to compare them.
