Bitcoin is the digital equivalent of a hot air balloon: It’s fun to watch, but if you lose your cool, it’s the end of your career.
So why is that?
Because it’s not a good investment.
The Bitcoin network is a peer-to-peer digital currency, which means that it’s impossible to track every transaction.
That means that when someone buys a Bitcoin, they’re actually making a transfer that isn’t a transaction.
It’s like a check for a bank account.
But that’s not the same thing as a “real” investment.
So, if you have the money to invest in a Bitcoin asset, the market will generally reward you with a higher return.
And that’s exactly what happened in the last quarter, according to data compiled by data scientist Mark Cuban.
As of late August, the average price of a Bitcoin was $17,958.
That’s an incredible return of more than 50% a year since the currency’s inception in 2009.
But there are a couple of caveats to this chart: First, because it’s a “peer-to, peer” currency, it can’t be tracked by traditional financial institutions like banks or credit card companies.
The same goes for the value of Bitcoin itself.
If you were to buy a house for a quarter of a million dollars, that would be a very expensive investment.
But the value that’s created by the network of computers that run the Bitcoin network will be more than enough to cover the cost of that house.
But because the value created by Bitcoin is a distributed network, that doesn’t mean it will always be stable.
A single bitcoin will go up and down over time.
But in the past, the Bitcoin price has bounced back and forth between $1,500 and $2,000, according a Wall Street Journal report.
“You can buy a $100,000 house, buy a small condo, and then the value will fluctuate and the price will go down,” said Brian Kelly, chief investment officer of the investment firm Ritholtz Wealth Management.
“But what I’ve seen with the price of Bitcoin, it has never fluctuated from $1 million to $2 million.
So you can buy that house, and you can take that $100 million condo, buy that $2.5 million house and you have a huge upside.
Another caveat is that the value added by the Bitcoin economy is a relatively small portion of the overall value of the economy. “
The upside is a lot higher, but you still have to be careful,” Kelly added.

In contrast, the value produced by the mining and trading of the cryptocurrency is the vast majority of the economic activity.
And because the cryptocurrency itself is untraceable, that’s a major drawback for investing.
As a result, the typical Bitcoin investor may see a return of a couple hundred dollars or more over time, Kelly explained.
That could be an attractive investment for the average investor, but not the top hedge fund manager.
“In general, when you see a bunch of money flowing through Bitcoin, you tend to get a lot more upside than you might see from a hedge fund,” he said.
And even though Bitcoin is growing rapidly, it is still quite volatile.
Its value fluctuates depending on supply and demand.
That makes it harder to track the growth of the currency as it matures.
For example, when the price began to increase about five years ago, it peaked at $1.1 million in December 2011, before falling back down to around $400.
By the end, Bitcoin had lost nearly half its value.
Now it is trading at around $250, according in The Wall Street Bulletin.
That volatility makes Bitcoin investment risky.
It requires a lot to be confident that you’ll make money, and if you’re short, it could affect the amount you invest.
But, as Kelly explained, if a company is successful in building a successful business, it will generate a lot less demand for Bitcoin.
The reason for this volatility is because there are so many competitors to the Bitcoin ecosystem.
The main cryptocurrency on the market right now, Litecoin, has a market capitalization of about $500 million.
That is almost $1 billion less than Bitcoin.
But it’s also about the same size as Facebook, which has more than 4.4 billion users.
“It’s a market with so much competition,” Kelly said.
“There’s so many different companies competing for this market, and I’m not saying that Litecoin is going to be the next Facebook, but it’s certainly a lot bigger than it is now.
It will be very challenging to be successful in a niche market.”
And yet, there is hope for Bitcoin in the next quarter.
After Bitcoin’s price stabilized in the first quarter, its value rose a few times in the second quarter.
But Kelly believes that will
