This fake news article could have been a ploy to manipulate the bitcoin market. Whether it was or wasn't, it demonstrates that hype and not fundamentals have led to bitcoin's current value, and as an investor, you're gambling more with luck than with knowledge. You're also gambling on:
Making sure you have the technical knowledge to keep your bitcoin wallet, a computer file, safe and secure.
Whether the SEC and governments will crack down on the alternate currency.
The future acceptance of bitcoin as a store of value and medium of trade.
Having the returns of bitcoin outpace alternative investments.

The grue lurks in the darkest places of the earth. Its favorite diet is adventurers, but its insatiable appetite is tempered by its fear of light. No grue has ever been seen by the light of day, and few have survived its fearsome jaws to tell the tale.

I speculate—this 'news' will matter not one iota.
It's an opinion, not news. |

No but what people say here is a reflection of their state of mind, which on the whole does affects it a lot. |

Yet another comparison to beanie babies. These "fools" will be the ones to buy at the top.

Motley Fool has terrible advice and articles. Plus they want people to stay focused on the stocks they make money off, not bitcoins.

Do you really think anything we say here on this forum has any effect on the market? Really? It has some result. The market is created by individuals. Individuals make decisions (sometimes) based on data they are exposed to or search for. If individuals were to come here, it is entirely plausible (and in fact, IMO, occurring all the time) they would read statements by various forum members, reputable or not and make market decisions on that, therefore having a result on the market. No? |
BTC Long.

Business advice from bloggers. They are the late night infomercials of finance.

Any significantly advanced cryptocurrency is indistinguishable from Ponzi Tulips.

This is simply not true. There stock picking services had 3 out of the top 5 highest performing in the world. Also, the number 1 and number 2 stocks in their million dollar portfolio (Starbucks and LinkedIn) have absolutely crushed it so far in 2013 with combined returns of about 40 or 50%. That being said they are a stocks service based on buying and holding long term and bitcoin is way outside of their comfort range. I doubt they know much at all but I am sure there are a couple of them that have bought a small amount out of interest and I imagine more than a few are keeping a close eye on things. |

To be fair, every stock I'm watching is also up 40 or 50%, in this market everyone can look like a genius. |

I would say bitcoin has absoulutely crushed it in 2013 with a gain of about 785%.  |
