you make it sound like bitcoin actually has a future, which is a pretty dangerous assumption. even if bitcoin can stay as a online "currency" it won't be anything like what it is today after governments catches on and start writing out regulations. i doubt CRA and IRS will let any transaction goes through without getting their cut in it.

putting my investor hat on, i would say definitely fad this bitcoin move. the 4 most dangerous words in investing are: This time is different. and i've seen plenty of that coming out of bitcoin bull.
