If you can scrape together an extra $100, buy a couple of Bitcoins. Their value with relation to the Dollar might not remain as great as it is right now – almost $47 per bitcoin at the MtGox exchange – but with the revelation that banks and bank officials cannot be trusted, bitcoin value will probably rise. Two month ago, bitcoins were selling for about $10 each compared with the $47 today. A few days ago they almost reached $50.
Why bitcoins over gold and silver? Because of the kind of manipulation gold and silver are going through.
Bitcoins are new. Big banks and bankers have not jumped on the bandwagon. But even if they do, because of the way that bitcoins are used and transfered – peer to peer, over the Internet, by non-bankers – they will probably be far harder to manipulate than gold and silver.
Get in now, while the bitcoin system is young. Spend that $100 on bitcoins. If bitcoins fail, somehow, and you lose your hundred, oh well. It won’t be the first hundred lost. But if they move like they just might, up real fast (really the dollar going down), you just might be sitting on a fortune.
Who can you trust? Not the banks! And doubly so since they paint such a rosy picture that they can be trusted – your friendly bank teller is such a nice person. But holding dollars while inflation is rampant – as it has been for decades – is really loss through the devaluation of the dollar.
Three bitcoin “exchanges” where you can currently buy bitcoins by depositing cash in the bank (anonymously, if the bank doesn’t ask for your info):
https://bitinstant.com/ – some hidden fees are involved
https://bitfloor.com/ – straight-forward, but with problems in their history
http://www.bitcopia.com/index.php – new kid on the block, with some simple, innovative ideas
And, then, for the lists of bitcoin exchanges:
