There are a couple pretty good podcasts covering the basics. I wish I would have gotten into it. It is the kind of thing that would have appealed to me. I think it has a lot of the warning signs of the dutch tulip crash, but then again so do baseball cards and that doesn't stop me from spending money on them.

Except you can hold baseball cards in you hand and look at them when they are going down in value

Update -- Bitcoin is now at 3350 or so, off its high near 20K. I assume the people who were enthusiastically recommending it in this and at least one other thread feel differently now. I think packs called it just right -- to me it never seemed on the up and up, the price rise was just too meteoric and unexplained.

Much like the baseball card run up!

There is nothing real about bitcoin so it won't surprise me of its eventual demise. Seems more like a pyramid scheme than anything, to me. Good luck to those investing in it, you will need it.

I wish I had gotten into it early. It's the kind of thing I would have enjoyed the mining aspect.
While it is a fiat currency backed by nothing more than faith, you could argue the dollar isn't much more than that. I had a lot of young guys in my office who wanted to invest in it, but I tried to dissuade them. I think it was at $12K when they were thinking about it... One thing it has done is popularize blockchain which I think will revolutionize security over the next couple of years. I do like silver and gold at their current price levels, but I don't think there's going to be a dramatic run up.

I never saw any difference between Bitcoin and the Dutch Tulip craze.
Pump and dump scam is what it looks like to me. And a little late to get on board now.
