    If they're pegged to the USD what's the point of trading them and not just trading the USD?
     
  6. Total junk.. the whole idea of Bitcoin was the ability to get away from a government inflated currency.... My deal is if I have any cash sitting around I transfer it into brokerage account and put it into SLV or GLD.. nowadays you can do that in 5 minutes by creating an account with one of the Brokers that donchargerge any fees
