i like bitcoin
low fee but more scam
what about scammer ?

Let's compare btc-wallet vs usd-bank
If you keep your btc in your wallet then check it after few years, you will find exactly the same amount that you left there and the probability that someone steal it is ~0.
Now if you keep your money-usd in a bank, you have fees to pay for each period / transaction / withdraw, maybe even locking your funds like Greece...etc

If you want to gamble, trade, invest in ponzi's like scheme, keeping your money in an online wallet or an exchanger then you have to assume.

Unfortunately the price could have gone to 1$ so I dont see much benefit there. Storing bitcoins for years is not a very good idea and the probability of steal may not be high in your wallet but you will eventually have to do something with those bitcoins and the chances start increasing every time you are depositing to an exchange or site.
