BTC will supplement gold for value storage and will hit a $5T market cap in a few years IMO. It certainly has utility for storing and moving value. Don't underestimate that.

BTC will not once it gets into multitrillion dollars. It's a young asset with no derivatives that the market isn't sure how to value. Also there are ways to hedge volatility.

You can't steal gold because someone forgot to update their machine and left it connected to Internet. For bitcoin, yes you can.
