I've seen you can actually trade bitcoin as a CFD, like any currency. You don't actually hold any bitcoins, but you still are 'betting' on the value of them rising. Benefit being, as you don't 'own' any bitcoins, they cannot be stolen or lost from you.
For long term though? Not sure what that would mean doing it this way, you'd be paying a premium on buying and selling, but apart from that? Surely that's hugely easier and safer? |
You won't lose them all if you test everything by sending 0.001 BTC to test.
The whole idea of bitcoin is a decentralised network. You hold YOUR bitcoins, not a bank, not the government. The price you pay is that you have to care about security. In return you get a currency that can't be printed when the government feels like it.
I wouldn't bother with CFD's personally. If you believe in the technology, buy some bitcoin. If you don't then don't buy them. |

Bet you're glad you didn't have to wait any longer
$100+ correction at some point, whether it happens now or at $500 or at $700 I have no idea. |

A man who ran an online "wallet service" for storing Bitcoins has claimed hackers stole virtual currency from his site worth more than one million Australian dollars.
The Australian man said 4,100 Bitcoins (US$1.04m, £650,000) were taken in two separate attacks.
He said he would not report the theft to police as Bitcoin transactions are virtually impossible to trace. |

To anyone dealing with Bitcoins, leaving money or coins on exchanges is such a stupid idea and they should know better. |
