A new poll shared by Bitget highlights where crypto traders and investors would allocate capital if given $100,000 to invest today, and Bitcoin clearly leads the pack.
According to the results, Bitcoin captured 52.6% of the vote, more than all other options combined. Gold followed at 27.7%, while silver lagged far behind with just 6%.
The remaining 13.7% of participants selected “Other,” suggesting interest in alternative assets beyond traditional precious metals and Bitcoin.

What the Results Show
The poll reflects a clear preference shift toward digital assets among market participants:
- Bitcoin (52.6%) – Viewed as the dominant long-term store of value and growth asset
- Gold (27.7%) – Still respected as a defensive hedge, but no longer the top choice
- Silver (6%) – Minimal appeal compared with gold and crypto
- Other (13.7%) – Indicates diversification into altcoins, equities, or niche assets
A Changing Investment Mindset
While gold remains a significant contender, the fact that Bitcoin alone attracted over half of the votes underscores how deeply crypto has embedded itself into modern portfolio thinking. For many participants, Bitcoin now sits ahead of traditional safe havens when it comes to deploying meaningful capital.
The poll doesn’t measure performance expectations, but it clearly captures sentiment, and sentiment is increasingly tilting toward crypto as the primary destination for large investment allocations.
