It can be a good investment, but it can also be a bad idea. It depends upon the season of bitcoin, which is unpredictable though.

Bitcoin is both bubbles, which can burst, and a good investment. He is a bubble because his value increases to a large extent only at the expense of the rush demand for it. And this happens countless times: demand leads to an increase in the price of bitcoins, and the rising price for it entails an even greater increase in demand for it. Thus, the cost of bitcoins increases regardless of the state of its intrinsic value. This is a typical behavior of a financial bubble, which can eventually burst
 Simply in this case, Bitcoine still has reserves for its further growth.
   Bitcoin is also a good investment. because it brings superprofits to everyone investing in it by increasing its value. So, if in January of this year its cost was about 1000 dollars, now its rate is 17 523 dollars.

The concept of bitcoin is new to people as it has become a mainstream recently.
It definitely isnt a bubble that’ll burst anytime soon as many people are investing more and more in bitcoins and thus the value of BTC is rising.
Bitcoin definitely has a lot advantages over other currency transactions because of which it won’t come down easily.

Bitcoin is now both a bubble and a good investment. It now behaves like a usual financial bubble, which grows in price only due to the increase in demand for it, but due to the fact that it continues to bloat successfully and bring big profits due to its growth in price, it is still profitable to invest in it and yet he did not burst, get a decent income. I think that in the nearest foreseeable future it will not burst, it still has the potential for growth.

Remember who u are, what u are & who you represent
It is really hard to predict. But I can say bitcoin will last as long people are interested in, investing in it, trading sites are free from government's hard restrictions. As of now apart from few bumps in the road I don't think there's enough evidences that it could be a bubble.

  According to my studies Bitcoin is a good investment since it is a decentralized digital currency i.e; no central governing body takes control in it ,and it is the fastest currency that can be send  all over the world cheaply to serve the poor and needy without hesitation so in my concept Bitcoin is not a bubble that is waiting to burst.Now the price  is tripled compared to previous years.

Bitcoin is the fastest-growing asset in the world this year, but the virtual currency does not appear to have many users in London’s tech district. It has been more than a month since bitcoin was used to buy a flat white or craft beer sold at the Old Shoreditch Station, according to the hospitality manager at the east London bar.
Louis Chauvin admits he cannot find the iPad that is used by staff for processing bitcoin payments, as he resumes serving customers queueing to pay with their contactless bank cards. Although the establishment sits in the capital’s buzzing tech hub, and is advertised online as one of the few retailers in London accepting the hipster-cum-computer nerds’ currency, as few as 20 people have asked to pay with it in the two years he has worked there.

Over the same period, the value of a single bitcoin has rocketed from around $300 to more than $11,000 this week. On Friday, the currency was trading at $10,700.

Chauvin says bitcoin’s increasing value – and media coverage – has not escaped customers. More people have come in asking how it works, thinking of using it in their own shop, rather than actually paying with it, he says, adding: “It’s cool, it attracts some people. But for now it’s niche.”
Bitcoin isn't a bubble.Its price has not raised this much high only by speculation.Wall street companies entering the market has triggered bitcoin price.We know that wall street CEOs were the main criticizers of bitcoin earlier like jamie dimon.Now,they have changed their attitude totally and have started to enter the market.We could understand that such big firms would not be ready to invest in just a speculative thing.People have started to think it as a safe haven free from government control.Now,there is no such high return giving asset in the world as bitcoin,the digital gold.

For me, bitcoin is both a good investment and security. Also, Bitcoin is the future, the future economy is going to be Crypto Economy for sure. So, I don't think Bitcoin is Bubble, rather, Bitcoin is the most profitable investment for now and next few years.

What does your title have to do with the body of your post? But to answer it, it's only really a bubble if it bursts. It has had plenty of opportunities in the past, and there is no shortage of people and groups wanting to bring it down, but it has been completely resilient and has come back stronger than ever. It's a good investment and even the finance investment world is starting to notice. It has already shed the bubble reputation among many circles.

As for the body of your post, it's not very surprising. The very reason why fiat is inflationary is that so you spend it. You're not going to have to worry about it having double the value by the time you wake up tomorrow. Bitcoin is better for hodling, for better or worse. Also, as popular as it is, it hasn't truly broken out into the mainstream. Few people own some and even fewer are willing to spend it when they can spend fiat.

Bitcoin, the future asset, the famous and fastest growing virtual currency among all, has spread its massive roots all around the world. Moreover it's continuously inflating valuation has attracted many investors to look into it. But some consider, this cryptocurrency, a bubble, which would burst into air, may be few years later. To them, my advice is that bitcoin is not a soap bubble, it is a bubble of prosperity and weakness which would never be burst. It is the good source of investment, helps people to mint money and make them self dependent.

Some people claim that Bitcoin is a bubble because they think that it has no value at all. They don't understand the idea of Bitcoin and they see it as a few numbers in a computer which anyone can modify. Also, banksters won't die that easily. They will defend banks and their money to the bitter end. Bitcoin value is increasing due to more and more people investing in it. People believe that Bitcoin will continue to increase and so do I.

We can already see Bitcoin is not a bubble. A lot of people,including popular millionaires, said in the past that Bitcoin is just a bubble and it will soon crack and disappear. This obviously didnt happened and I am pretty sure it is not going to happen, at least in the near future.

We can say it is a good investment and in the same time a hidden bubble that is close to crack, but we cant know for sure. For now all we can do is to invest and wait to see what is going to happen. We have enough time to invest and make huge profits until bitcoin is going to have problems.

Why can't Bitcoin be both a bubble waiting to burst, AND a good investment?

There is no doubt we are in a bubble. The masses are confused as to what Bitcoin is. People are asking and just don't understand it. It is so simple, what isn't to understand?

On the flipside, Bitcoin is an amzing investment. Tell me any other investment where you get 1,000% ROI in under a year? Grin

I am one of the oldest Bitcoin around here I have seen the Mt gox exchange crash, and many more incidents but in the topics about Bitcoin bubble then I know what to say. Bitcoin is always just unpredictable but still it keeps Rising so I guess all the previous Bitcoin bubbles or not fake Bitcoin today last $10,000 and still it has potentiality to grow even more and by the way people have just started using it for real so it is going to increase a lot and the coming 2018.

Bitcoin already proven that it is not a bubble for almost a decade now everytime the value of bitcoin pump everybody thinks it's just a bubble that anytime can suddenly burst and lose its value without realizing that's just a fluctuations that is already part of bitcoin cycle. Bitcoin is a good investment for me especially a long term investment to consider. Sooner those people who thinks bitcoin is a bubble will probably change their mind when they see the value bitcoin will have in the coming years.

There are certain things that needs to be deal with before Bitcoin could grow even more, and that is making possible for bitcoin to be used almost anywhere, for day to day things. At the moment I think that bitcoin is both bubble and good investment. Without risk there is no good profit and that is what makes bitcoin good investment. There are new people entering world of bitcoin with idea to get rich and they all buy bitcoin, so because of that bitcoins price sky rocketed. And that is busting price so fast and so high... and because little number of those people use bitcoin as an currency, it is just a matter of time before price drop to its original value. At least that is what i think.

You can't really tell. But for me, you can gain money in bitcoin as long as you invest early. For sure it will reach a certain wherein the only option after that is to go down. But that value is uncertain.

Bitcoin will experience the same phenomenon the internet companies went through, with similar cycles or waves in price, given its transformative role in society. I think we are far too early to talk about the peak but when it comes it will be violent. The positive thing for investors is that bitcoin is scarce.

If you look at it in that way way bitcoin will survive but lots of alts (bad ICOs) will fail and some major cryptocurrencies will survive, like ebay, google and others stayed long after the market crush

I agree that anyway it hasn't reached its full peak as we see more and more people want to invest for the first time wich can create bigger price until some point when most people will want to "get out", but if we look at bitcoin it is acctually a currency thats why in my opinion, it doesn't behave like stocks and other form of assets. Since you can use it as a currency and you don't need to really sell it when its value go up. But we all know that many people have bitcoins so that they can turn fiat later on.. we will see
