  BTC price crashed by half, going from roughly $1k to $500 in the course of a week. lawl
  I've heard people have been giving away Dogecoins on 4chan.

  Dogecoins are the safer better option, obviously.

  Oh, whoops! I guess I was looking at the wrong chart.
  
  Either way, the whole investment craze has been stupid from the start. The hackers were manipulating the market, and now it's the Chinese government. The only people who've really profited from this are the miner equipment manufacturers and the few lucky people who bought BTC when they were cheap and unpopular as an experiment or a joke.
  
  Fun fact: It wasn't too long ago that BTC crashed to a point where each was valued at just 1 cent. Maybe I'll buy some for the lulz if the value keeps going down.

  It really is no different from any other stock or commodity, except the fluctuation of its value is much more volatile. The bubble and crash occurs every few months, but overall it is relatively safe to work with. Especially when you jump in while cheap.
  
  But at the same time, this level of volatility makes it hard to put any real faith in to. Play with it for fun, see if you can net a small profit, but never put in any more than you're willing to lose.
  
  Bitcoins will either continue being a toy currency or turn really big. Either way, it's no fun just watching.

  Except the volatility of investments is one of the key differentiators between them. :P
  
  And of course it's okay to mess around with them when they're cheap. My issue was with the hype when they were above $1k USD (or hell, even below that). It's would be ridiculous to assume that the value of some virtual data backed by nothing other than investor hype would continue to soar in value so fast.
  
  I do think that Bitcoin will get big eventually, as a way to transfer funds. Using it for serious investment, at this point, is silly. Even more so if your entire investment portfolio consists of these (which I suspect is the case with a large number of people who are into this thing).

  isn't the value going back up? A friend of mine got some "free" bitcoins from mining back when they were nothing and has been following it for a while now. He says they dropped hard and fast because of china but now it's climbing back up. I don't know if there's any reliable bitcoin "stock" tickers though to know what the current real value is.

  It started to go up, then it went back down.

  Exchanges provide decent info on their own transactions. I'm sure there's better data aggregators out there, too.
