All THAT GLITTERS IS BITCOIN NOW-DIGITAL GOLD OF THE NEW ERA

in #bitcoin7 years ago

The quest for multi-baggers often leads investors to seemingly obscure stocks that would be the blockbusters of the future. In the past two years, however, money managers may have done better if they had chosen the least likely growth asset – the currency.

bitcoin, The much talked about crypto currency, has returned more than 10 times since 2015, with the price of the digital instrument hitting a record Rs 225,000 a unit in the domestic market(approx. $3300) .Trading in bitcoins is gaining traction, especially among those aged 18-35 years and seeking to harness volatility for extra-ordinary returns.

“The increasing awareness of bitcoins worldwide, particularly about its revolutionary technology, has triggered a rally in the bitcoin market,” said Sandeep Goenka, cofounder and chief operating officer at Zebpay, an app-based bitcoin exchange. “Japan has now added itself to the list of countries that have regulations for bitcoins.Due to these positive factors, bitcoin prices have been showing tremendous strength.”

With an expert committee in India now seeking to regulate domestic trading of bitcoins, prices are expected to leapfrog in the next one year. Since April, Japan's legalization of the digital currency has contributed to the rally in bitcoins. After Tokyo’s move, many vendors have started accepting the virtual currency: Peach Aviation, for instance, is going be the first Japanese airline to accept bitcoins as payment for plane tickets.

Trading volumes and prices have risen in lockstep with increasing interest in India in bitcoins. In June, 2015, the prices were about Rs 20,000 per bitcoin. They surged to Rs 225,000 recently, dealers said. In the past few days, it has pared gains partially, and now trades about Rs 183,000 per unit in the round-the-clock market.

Vipul jain, a final-year engg. student, has sold four bitcoins at roughly 2.2 lakhs rs a piece while the buying price was about 45000rs,that's a huge profit.

Like any other investment, bitcoins are not risk-free. Sharp price swings are routine. After touching the record high of Rs 225,000 a unit, the price plunged to about 160,000 a unit within an week .

Despite the highly volatile nature,bitcoin has still the potential to change the whole payment industry and can be a risky but solid investment for the future.
