Hello,

Until recently I had only vaguely heard of Bitcoin but during the course of starting up a new business we came across a web developer who requested to be paid in Bitcoin, thus marking my nose first dive into all things Bitcoin. I'm still incredibly new with all of it and at first it was more than a little overwhelming but I'm learning more and more and plan to continue doing so.

On to my first point, I was wondering if anyone had a strategy for buying Bitcoin... it seems to be a bit volatile to me so come on guys, what's the secret? Money is a little tight and I'm finding the fluctuations either cause quite a thrill or a sinking depression. Any advice?

Lastly, we're considering accepting Bitcoin in our new business. It's a largely online venture and it seems to be a good option for Bitcoin but I'm not sure if my excitement is getting the better of me, are there any intricacies or major complications for businesses and Bitcoin? Especially come tax time or maybe something else altogether I'm not thinking of?

Thanks for taking the time,
Grant
