Please bear with me
How is this considered journalism?

Sure, just lump everything together without even a slightest attempt to understand the difference - you cannot be wrong in 100% of cases, indeed some of the mentioned investments WILL go bad. As a result, you can say a year from now with total self-confidence: "See, I was RIGHT!"

You'll see Bitcoins, the everlasting fascination of Silicon Valley crypto-geeks, being not only spoken about as an investment-grade commodity despite having higher volatility than your average Baldwin brother, but inspiring entire investment vehicles (one of which is structured by celebrity twins) that give ordinary investors as well as the tech-savvy crowd the chance to lose money when the fad runs its course.

Bitcoin is a fad again Smiley
