Quote from Baron:
The whole point of this website is to gather people who want to make money trading financial instruments for a profit, whether it be stocks, options, futures, forex, bitcoin, etc.
I think bitcoin is exciting and always have. It's disruptive, volatile, and fairly unregulated compared to other markets.
It reminds me of trading Nasdaq stocks back in the days when the SOES system existed and when the quotes were in fractions. There was also no pattern daytrading rule, so it was an exciting time to be a day trader, and anyone with a few thousand dollars could give it a try. But times have changed, so the opportunities that were available back then are no longer available now. So we move forward trying to find the next wave of opportunity. For many, the crank down on day trading stocks meant they had to find something new, something with less regulation and more opportunity, which is why so many people defected to Futures and Forex trading.
Bitcoin is just another avenue for those looking to venture into a new market. It's not for everybody, that's for sure. But for those who are forward thinkers and not scared of trying something new with risk capital they can afford to lose, Bitcoin is certainly worth investigating.
