Re: Should I invest in bitcoin, and which wallet should I use?
I highly recommend Blockchain.info for your wallet. It is web-based but only decrypts inside your browser. In theory it is nearly as secure as a desktop wallet, but without the need to download 10gb of blockchain.
Go for it. but remember the two cardinal rules:
1. Never invest more than you can afford to lose
2. If you make a profit and put it into your bank account, you must declare it as taxable income and you will be taxed. Instead, try to buy products and services directly with your Bitcoin when it has high value, and then you have no need to declare anything, pay tax or pay an exchange's commission.
I try to treat the cause, not the symptom. I avoid the terminal in instructions, unless it's easier or necessary. My instructions will work within the Ubuntu system, instead of breaking or subverting it. Those are the three guarantees to the helpee.
