For those of you who are hesitant about Bitcoin I would suggest reading or getting the audio book for the Bitcoin Standard and also reading Bitcoin: Hard money you can't fu*k with.

I've been buying it since May and the returns have been amazing. Concerned about the exchange you are buying from getting hacked? Buy a cold storage wallet like a Trezor or Nano and take your coins off of the exchange. Problem solved.

Also, you don't have to buy an entire coin. You can buy fractions of coins for any dollar amount. (Satoshi's)

The value of Bitcoin is going and the dollar is PLUNGING.
