You can't actually. Gold holds a unique spot on the periodic table. Another element isn't going to come into existence and compete with it here. Bitcoin on the other hand is in the fight for its life with the rest of the cryptocurrencies. I think that the one that's most useful will win out in the end... not the one that was most popular first (think myspace).

Asteroid mining will likely destroy the scarcity of gold, but I expect we're 50-100 years away from that happening.
