I don't have a ton of money in traditional investments but I've put a good $20k in there. It's only worth about $13k because of how poorly the economy has performed over the past two years. Add onto this the continuing devaluation of the dollar…

Anyway I'm considering pulling some or all of my money out and putting it into BTC. My $1000 btc investment has made more money than my retirement fund.

My question is… Do you see btc as an investment? I know it is an alternative currency but at this stage, especially since next year is the halving, is it crazy to consider it an investment?
