If an EFT is created around Bitcoin, wouldn't that open the door to manipulating the price?

Thee blockchain technology has application value. Bitcoin itself is trackable. Not to any one person or place, but just knowing each coin is accounted for to an address and can be verified is enough to make it better than fiat currency for some people.

"investing in bitcoin" is dumber than "investing in gold" investing in gold does have a backing, but what it lacks to make really good return (or loss) - is volatility - volatility is opportunity and blockchain has that in spades. dont put your kids college money in it, put a few spare dollars you can see what happens with. |

"investing in bitcoin" is dumber than "investing in gold" It's no different than someone seeing the potential of ecommerce on the world wide web back in the 90s, buying Amazon stock and holding out for the maturation of that market. Super risky yes, but It's not luck when you do your homework. I don't buy stocks without reading annual reports and I didn't buy bitcoin without thoroughly understanding how it functions either. Oddly enough, the only other crypto I've bought has been ethereum. Out the thousands of altcoins how did I manage to pick the other big winner? Lucky twice? |

Every bitcoin discussion ever consists of people saying random stuff about it.
That's it. If you like bitcoin, you say that it's going to be worth billions some day. if you hate bitcoin, you say that it's going to implode some day. That's the entire intellectual content of any bitcoin discussion. It's an empty exercise. It zoomed up in value when all the haters said it was going to crash and it tanked when all the fanboys said it was going to the moon. every time it zooms upward, it becomes the best thing in the world, every time it crashes everyone give it a eulogy. just admit you have no clue what's going to happen to it. As an outsider and disinterested party, I don't see how a currency that wildly fluctuates in value could be used as a currency. Would you be willing to be paid in dollars and keep your retirement fund in dollars if the dollars zoomed from $200 to $900 and back to $200 in a few months? At this point in its evolution, it seems more like a real volatile stock than a currency. Or like gold. You know how people insist that gold is some sort of excellent store of value as it zooms up and down. |

it might be a beanie baby type investment and it might die someday, but people do get rich gambling on this kind of stuff during the dot com boom, people got rich off of internet companies that were supposed to deliver dog food in the mail of course, on the flip side, the last guy to buy in loses his shirt when the bubble pops during the dot com boom, there was a shitload of articles about how "the old rules don't apply anymore." in other words, financial experts were saying that because of the internet boom, a company no longer needed to produce a product or turn profit to be valuable there were advisors telling you to buy stocks for companies with no employees and no actual product. 6 months later when it all turned to shit, the same guys were writing articles about how dumb everyone was for buying into the dot com hype |
