Didn't Bitcoin just plummet by 20%?  It was all over the business pages 
here in Oz (yes, as a techie I read the biz section too; sometimes there's 
some fascinating stuff there that really ought to be front-page).

I wouldn't invest in anything that I couldn't exchange for the shiny 
stuff; isn't that called "fungible" or something?  Precious metals 
"should" never go down, but diamonds are only as valuable as deBeers wants 
them to be (or something like that).
