Even holding is a valid way to make money look at past month BTC  value at lowest was around 410, we are now hitting around 441 or so.  So a gain of around 30 dollars if you timed it perfect (which yes would be hard).  But ones who held gained around 30 dollars in a month... that is pretty impressive as far as investments go.

Hopefully it stays or goes even higher.  But a 7 percent increase in value in a month.... is more then most regular investments will do.  And a heck of a lot more then say a savings account.
