Gold has an intrinsic use value. Maybe not as high as its current monetary value, but it isn’t zero.

Bitcoin has no floor. You can only exchange bitcoin for taxes if someone wants the bitcoin.

Gold is intrinsically scarce. You can't fork gold and have Gold 2.0 which has the exact same properties of the original Gold.
