I really would be weary of bitcoin, there's been a lot of shady stuff, theft, there's no regulation....etc....
From what i understand the great innovation was the blockchain system of authentication. Bitcoin was just a by-product of that

I have a friend who told me one of his best friends from college made several hundred thousand bucks on it.
Of course there are also many who had their bitcoin stolen when that chinese bitcoin bank (Btmain i think?) went bust and they couldn't do anything about it

Well, Im not commenting on bitcoin value itself. Just on the blockchain tech. Blockchain (not, just bitcoin itself) is getting large investments across many industries.

Prior to getting the bitpay card I was able to go to Bitcoin ATM on the south side of Chicago, the downside to this was I had to wait 45 minutes for it to be confirmed before I got my cash.
Prior to Bitcoin we were waiting 2-4 weeks for s chrck cash out.
I wish I knew how to buy Bitcoin for gambling as I went on a bender 2 weeks ago and charged 150 bucks in fees using my debit and credit card on Bovada.

Pretty much this. The exchange rate from USD to BTC fluctuates quite a bit from week to week. That being said, a few sites I use prefer or only take bitcoin so I still hold an account. I only buy bitcoin when I need to use it, otherwise that account hangs out with zero balance.

Edit - when I say crash, I mean it went from about $1,100 to about $400 per coin. Keep in mind, a few months prior to that, we were mining a coin every 3 days. That was fun. It allowed me to buy a lot of golf clubs and firearms. (with cash, legally.)

The bitcoins went up and down and I think I sold them around $10.
You probably think I'm kicking myself over it, but nah. Like I said, it was more about figuring out how they worked. Also, I guarantee I would have sold them well before they got anywhere near $2500. I probably would have sold them at $25 and thought, "holy crap, I just doubled my money".

If I were to ask what is the underlying value of bitcoin, no one can answer that. However, if I ask what is the underlying value of the U.S. Dollar, it's about 1,600 nukes pointed at you.

I have a handful of various other coins. Like putting in $50 and getting thousands of each to hodl. I figure, if they go up? Great. If not? I'm out ~$50/per. (I'm up on almost all of them, some marginally, but still up).
I do have "quite a few" ETH and LTC I bought end of last year with my (somewhat smallish) bonus. So, really happy that are doing well (ETH up about 290%, LTC up about 350%, so I ain't complaining) Then there's the many buckets of Ripple, Pink, VTC, LSK, bought on the cheap just to hodl.
If it pays out? Sure, I'm happy. If not, I figure I haven't lost much. I'll cash out before/if they get to what I put into them, so I'd break even at the most.
