Why should I buy bitcoin?

[Gator-hex]

Don't bother buying $40 of Bitcoins instead help create a market by sell something and saying "accepting Bitcoins".

And YES... NEVER EVER EVER EVER TRUST an online wallet. BECAUSE it simply CAN get hacked, as everything in the world.


a smartass got $30 bucks worth of bitcoins on its public release. Now he's a millionaire, but this wont happen to you, the drop of the cat already passed. Now we got a badass inflated coin @ $300

Let's say coinbase does get hacked. They have insurance and will return money to the respective people.

Why not 

Hey guys,
Can someone convince me why I should buy some bitcoin? I am considering buying 40 bucks worth. Why should I invest? Where should I invest? Any tips are appreciated, seeing as I am very new to bitcoin.
Thanks!

You can only lose as much as you put in, but you can gain untold riches.

Well said!

Thank you.

It depends on your objectives. Personally I like to invest in innovative coins that are undervalued.

The fact is Bitcoin's developer abandoned the project years ago and disappeared into thin air. Yet there are equally-talented software engineers picking up the code where Satoshi left off, for example adding the 51% attack defense missing from the original code.

I think there are a few altcoins that have huge upside potential. I'd suggest placing your bets in that sector.

I was telling peeps close to me to buy in the early double digits.  Most STILL haven't taken my advice.  I guess people are allergic to knowledge and profit taking.  LOL???   

Nah, because Bitcoin is too new.... or it just sound insane....

Use btc-e, it gives you lots of ways to fund your account in buying btc. Their fees are around 2-3%.

You can use localbitcoin.com if your country has a market for bitcoins.

And why, it's because people are getting moe and more interested in it. This makes bitcoins worthy to invest in.

  First post btw.

Just buy it... it will be worth a lot in the future!
