Considering that Bitcoin is a digital currency, it has been commended for its capacity to dodge traditional transaction networks, and therefore it functions as a peer-to-peer, independent payment solution. While the concept may be seen as revolutionary, detractors made sure to point out that lack of regulation triggers, uncertain security measures and volatile price swings. Thus far, the uncertainty has barred Bitcoin from turning into a mainstream investment class for speculative traders.
