Bitcoin prices are volatile
** Bitcoin prices may rise or fall unexpectedly over a short period of time due to their young, new, and sometimes undesirable economies. As a consequence, you are not currently recommended to save in bitcoins. Bitcoin should be viewed as a high-risk asset, and you should not save too much money at risk of being lost with Bitcoin. If you receive a payment with Bitcoin, many service providers allow you to exchange it instantly into your local currency. **
