I found a good article about bitcoin: https://priceonomics.com/when-the-great-alpaca-bubble-burst/ Key points: - goods being sold on the merit of them going up in value, rather than because of the innate usage as a good or innate earning power from their economic outputs, - unrealistic expectations of return based on: - Information coming nearly solely out of biased or industry controlled sources (in bitcoins case, people who already hold coins or the exchanges that "sell" them.

I sold everything I had related to bitcoin at 7200, the day before it dipped down to current levels; made 3000 dollars and reinvested it in ordinary stocks so it's been good.

I feel like this is a thing that shouldn't have to be said but investing in a something while its prices are skyrocketing to unheard of level is a bad idea. Especially when said product has no intrinsic value. Don't be a greedy idiot.

If this is your life savings then jesus christ don't gamble with your life savings. If this is play money that you don't mind losing then think carefully about whether you are accurately assessing the risk vs reward

Tether is printing fake money like crazy. $60m in 24 hours, $100m this week. http://omniexplorer.info/lookupadd.aspx?address=3MbYQMMmSkC3AgWkj9FMo5LsPTW1zBTwXL I'm sure they totally have $595m cash sitting in their account to back this up, though.
