I don't really understand it but like I said they invested a small amount I think less than a 1.000 bucks just to seeIf bit fails ether will likely go up as it is in line with the same systems but touts to be more open based. Bit supposedly fell under the control of centralized banks, therefore became as good as cash did, IE no accountability. The block chain became so difficult to mine for a reason, big banks didn't want folks creating anymore bit. Only they can create bit. Get the picture? Bit will fail once enough people jump ship realizing it is no longer absolutely open and transparent like it always claimed.
I'd say let the kid get into it, but teach him to understand hard currencies. IE physical currency (precious metals) will always be the hardest currency, until currency is made obsolete.
And I have no idea what that means.
This should help you (below). In the gaming world there are all sorts of virtual things one acquires while playing games that will help you play better. For example, if you complete a quest you might get gold coins which you can then spend on better weapons. There's tons of this type of stuff out there and just depends on each individual game.
But as a result of this, a market has apparently developed for these "virtual items." People are looking to "level up" and it's faster to buy your way up the ladder, rather than work you way up by killing Orks...or something like that. But apparently they can be bought and sold somewhere on line...but this is about where my knowledge on this ends.
But...you probably want to sit down with your son and talk about some things. The interwebz can be a dangerous place so you and he want to be careful with who he is coming into contact with when he's selling stuff.
Also, if he seriously is making amounts like $1000, you can be the government is going to want their cut. There are likely tax consequences for this and you want to be sure the IRS doesn't come looking for their share...the bloodsuckers.
Lastly, please figure out how he's doing this and tell us. I could use an extra $1000 for a days work.

This is a odd thing I don't really understand all of it hell I can bearly work my smart phone but I do know they are TALKING about this like a off shore account so if you do make alot of money you may have to pay huge taxes in the future if you want to bring it back lol I DON'T KNOW SOMETHING LIKE THAT I'M NOT RICH AND NOT A LAWYER
That's hilariousThe stock market bubble back in the 90s. A co-worker was maxing out as many credit cards as he could get his hands on buying tech stocks...doubling his money, paying off the cards and repeating the whole thing over and over. He made a ton. Then it went titzup.
It worked well for him, but not for the others who saw his sucess and jumped in late to get their bitcoi...err, tech stock on.That's hilarious
Any idea what he made after the cards were paid off?It worked well for him, but not for the others who saw his sucess and jumped in late to get their bitcoi...err, tech stock on.
No. He was head of our IT dept, and I just listened to his process but was not in a position to take such a risk myselfAny idea what he made after the cards were paid off?
Problem as I see it is that people just want to win the lottery! These things only have value that others see in it. If they see value then they will buy it off of you at the price you want to sell it at. If they don't see the same value then as far as I am concerned you are holding a basket of motorcycle parts with no frame, engine or tires. Worth nothing to you or to a buyer. It'll have a big run-up and an even bigger fall off. Teapot Dome, 1929, Enron, etc. Losers will be the last ones to sell.The stock market bubble back in the 90s.
