Q: I am becoming interested in bitcoin. I have not invested because I don’t really understand it. But I see a number of trust-worthy people getting very interested. It seems to be seen as an alternative and often a better alternative than holding gold. In your view what is the risk level of holding bitcoin at this point in its evolution? And can you suggest any educational material on the subject? Finally, what would you suggest for buying if someone is interested?
Thanks for the great service as always
