Not that I know what I'm talking about with Bitcoin, but shares are really tanking of late and people have to put their money somewhere. Gold has been the fail safe of the past but with a lot of uncertainties in currency and shares I don't think picking up bitcoin at a relative low price would be the worse investment decision.

Good spot The inflation caused by constant printing from thin-air will have to go somewhere, and this will be the crypto space.

And they have been doing the same to cryptos for well over a year now price through manipulation be it up or down. Compare the volumes traded compared to coins currently in circulation? It doesn't add up hence it's BS. Simple as. Still a good time to buy

Wouldn’t touch bitcoins with a barge pole. The riskiest end of investment- is no different to playing roulette right now.

But I agree with you, very volatile and subject to underhand forces for years to come.

For sophisticated investors only - that excludes me!!, who know what they're doing and with money to lose on a high risk and as you say, volatile product.

The riskiest end of investment- is no different to playing roulette right now. Granted there's a lot of volatility, but the possible top end of that certainly grabs attention. That and cryptocurrencies are typically seen as a long term investment. If you'd put your money in ASOS shares at the beginning of December back you'd have already lost half of your investment. Hell, if you'd invested in Amazon a few months ago your 2000USD would now be 1377USD. No such thing as a free lunch!

Continual small gains over the past weeks mean Bitcoin is 20% higher than a month ago. First time in a year that prices have started to come back.
