Measuring a return in dollars is silly. You could have simply bought Bitcoins instead and made even more profit with lower risk.

I am lost ? Is he talking about mining it ? He is saying he got a great Return on Investment on his Bitcoins and you are telling him to do that same exact thing ? Of course you want to measure your return in dollars. You have to compare it to something and until Bitcoin is taxed, or regulated, or insured. Dollars are the only thing that counts. Bitcoin is a great investment if you are in it to make money. But buying it to use.... Too complicated, and to time comsuming. Plus, as it goes up, more hacking will step in. And once it peaks, and fall X % it will have trouble.

Not to be a downer. But it is going to take time and a BIG reset. Before it is stable. I also heard where they think the Govt (central bank) Banks, may be buying it up to take it off the market (so to speak)... Once it gets really hard to buy, and no one knows why the supply is empty. That when they will dump them into the open market driving down the price. Just a therory I read...

No one really knows what will happen.... I am playing it small ball. Take the winnings and roll it into more. That way I am playing with their money... Good luck to ya..
