Oh well, many so called ''Experts'' are still saying that long term the only way is UP for Bit-coin, we shall see and of course for anyone who is an enthusiastic Bit-coiner, surely now is the time to BUY, BUY, BUY !!

Total lay person on this, but I can’t get past that it seems that people are only buying Bitofacon as an investment, not because they have a realistic expectation that it will be an actual currency. As such it seems obvious that anyone who is intending to “win” by investing is reliant on a mug losing out later on

Its on the rise again, sunk to just a tad over £15000 now in one day risen again to £16,505, so like volatile shares, buying and selling levels, so anyone who buys now perhaps sell if it goes above £28,000 !

No one has to lose out for an earlier investor to ‘win’.

I didn’t say that - I said that intending to win by utilising the dynamics of this kind of investment is reliant on a mug losing later on. Doesn’t have to be at the next step.

No, it’s not reliant on someone losing out later on at all.

latest price is 922.58GBP, buy low, then sell high.
Of course then it comes down to a gamble as to when to sell and when to buy !

So it’s an investment that nobody loses out on?

Its another form of gambling, so of course like gambling on a horse race or on high risk shares, some win and some lose out !
Only gamble what you can afford to lose.

So long as everyone just keeps on buying, then that's correct - nobody can possibly lose. :)

Invest in Lego. Holds its value at worst, increases significantly at best, and you get to make x-wings and ghostbusters cars free . What’s not to like?

Pound Sterling appears to be dropping faster than Bitofacon. Anyone know why?

The traders (for that read gamblers) in the money markets have decided to try and make some money on a falling pound. It'll come round again. (I had a friend work in the money markets for his bank in the 80's - the stories he used to tell me about how they decide what to buy and sell, IMO it was 90% gambling, nothing to do with the state of a countries economy.

And yes, I know that most trading is decided by computer algorithms nowadays, not actual people.

You're doing that thing aren't you?

Is it because the American economy is the strongest it has been in a long time ?
