Refreshing basic mind:
Bitcoins are wide known as a virtual trading good spreaded over alot of people and controlled by, IMO, the foundergroup, which first developed e-gold (semantic analysis proofed) got seized by CIA and made than the anonymous e-gold bitcoins.
Classical analysis says, as the tulp mania or glass pearls mania showed us, it cant be. Bitcoins are the glass pearls of the internet time and its technology. BUT this glass pearls are having advantages over the FIAT pearls. So if you feel secure enough investing in glass pearls, which can be used for trading goods, then jump on. When not, then you could miss the train.
