Bitcoin is already an investment in itself.

Not really if in 2014 it lost 60% of its value lol. I would not call it a safe investment.

You can not invest in anything and be guaranteed that you'll get a profit. Honestly, the best way to 'invest' is by buying Bitcoins at a low price, hope the price rises, and when it does, sell it. That, in my opinion, is a safe way.

For investors that want to invest in Bitcoin, but in the more traditional fiat based way, you can probably get in on GBTC and COIN when it eventually launches:

-snip-


Is that a legit site? Seems a little bit fishy for me.

If you're talking about Ticker symbol GBTC which will represent BIT (Bitcoin Investment Trust) on the OTC markets, that's as legit as it gets. 

Look up Barry Silbert.  He's in charge of BIT.

As far as the Winklevii, I'm sure you've heard of them in the news, and heard of their ETF, COIN, as well as their upcoming exchange, Gemini.  All fully regulated and legitimate awaiting launch sometime this year.

Basically, what CB said. The system is regulated by the Fed. If they screwed people over, it wouldn't be some "let's just run off because nobody will find us" situation like we've been dealing with. The Fed itself would step in.

But is the ETF actually worth buying into? I still don't quite get what they do (I do in general, but what about this specific one)?

The GBTC and COIN ETF is like any other ETF or any other holding or stock shares in a company.

It's like investing in GLD or SLV without actually having gold or silver bars in your safe.  You'd be owning fractions of a Bitcoin with both GBTC and COIN, all without the headaches of actually safe guarding, air gapping, backing up, or securing your stash.

Some people like peace of mind or like to offload the "security" risk to the valid exchanges, instead of straight up ownership.

So essentially it's virtual virtual bitcoins, then, Smiley.

I'm slightly familiar with ETFs from the perspective of like "S&P 500" and such. I wasn't aware that it was simply a holding vehicle for the underlying assets, though (new to investing) and didn't even know you could use them for things like gold/silver.

Yes sir!  Something along those lines.  Holding shares in Bitcoin, about 1/10th of a whole Bitcoin, but without the Gox'ing, Stamp'ing, or Mycoining that's been going on. 

Should be any day now, based on the news, GBTC could be launched as early as next week:

Pretty cool thing! Do you know what their yearly "management" fees are?

I've been waiting for the Winklevoss brothers ETF for what seems an eternity now. What are they waiting for? Now it's a great time to announce such thing, with the current tasty low BTC price a lot of money will flow in.

Investing is always risky, and do it with Bitcoins more. Mining is not profitable today, the electric costs are very high. The best thing you can do is buy Bitcoins and wait.

"Bitcointrust" reminds me on pirateat40 -> "Bitcoins savings and trusts"...but I hope it will come soon, because it would enable the Bitcoin to get popular at the stock exchanges.

every invest is have a high risk but if you wanna profit from bitcoin you can buy when the price down
and sell when the price is going high

The problem is that no one really knows how much will be "low" and how much will be "high". It is quite possible that you will end up selling Bitcoin at low prices, just before a sudden spike happens.
