Who says there are 21 million bitcoins, the twins?  What is to stop the twins from doubling them over night?  Bitcoins are a "virtual" currency.  So what is to stop a hacker from hacking in and multiplying them, and then selling them online?  If I decide to get out of paper - which I can at least hold in my hand - I do not think I will go into electrons.  Gold, silver, platinum or something else tangible is the way I will go.  And I will not sell those for bitcoins.

 Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy, I'm off to troll people with that reply

We've gotten so lazy that we can't even develop a real product that someone will buy, so we start making #### up...   Good luck on this one...  a game for the rich.  I wouldn't touch it with a 6 foot pole.

besides the millions of ignorant comments on the internet this one is giving me chuckle.
people are viewing bitcoins as something for the rich

that means bitcoin made it...... right?

the winkle twins have notr truly understood botcoins and are using bitcoin fame to till their own pockets. when investing through the winkle twins you do not own actual bitcoins. you own a digital numeric representation of a bitcoin, which actually never leaves the winkles ownership.

basically you own shares in their holdings not the actual bitcoin they hold. it wont bring easier method to buy bitcoin, it wont be spendable in shops. its just a share purchase, so yes the winkle investments are just for the rich, not for the average consumer that wants actual bitcoins.

that was a user comment - and i'm 100% certain he's talking about bitcoins not the ETF. ETF is a strange product they are offering i'm sure it will have it's purposes too. but, yea congratulations to all for getting rich in the last 3/4 years Tongue now people view you with confusion as well as envy.

I guess to Mr. Frank, the internet is also not a "real product."  Just make shit up huh, well he should be pretty rich if it's that easy.
