It may just be getting used to the surroundings that you have put it in. Or if you have had it for a day or two it may need food or its bowl/tank cleaning out.
Goldfish are moderately inactive fish. They will spend much of their time just floating or sitting at the bottom.

Newts either just walk at the bottom of the ater or they swim
What else would you expect them to swim in? Of course Goldfish swim in water.
Unless you expect it to just swim around in a bowl. It helps to CLEAN IT every once in a while.
No! they swim around! they are too dumb to exercise
change water
The reason why the goldfish is at the bottom of a fish bowl is because it is dead. (edit) It may also be resting. Fish do this from time to time. If it doesn't swim about at all, then it's probably dead though.
The reputation of goldfish dying quickly is often due to poor care. The lifespan of goldfish in captivity can extend beyond 10 years.
