Bitcoin – The top performing currency in the world?!

"While other currencies are going up and down about 3% – 15% a year, I’m very excited to introduce you to my new investment, which in the past year has gained over 400%....The U.S. dollar value of a bitcoin is about $45 today compared to just $5 a year ago. In the last three months bitcoins gained over 200% since at the end of 2012 (when) the quoted price was $13.48."

By Ryan Dickherber
Saturday, June 4, 2011
"Three weeks ago I discovered bitcoin. It sounded interesting enough that I decided to devote an entire Saturday to it—that was my “day of bitcoin.” My day of bitcoin evolved into my three weeks of bitcoin. In that time, I have been obsessively reading about it, writing about it, buying it, and creating businesses for it. As far as I can recall, I have never been so obsessed about anything.
