Good grief. More talk of bubbles. Anyone sensible that's investing with Bitcoin is mining instead of buying. In the long term Bitcoin value is going to rise so you'll end up making a profit if you DO end up buying Bitcoin due to the way that Bitcoin is set up (there's only ever going to be 21 million Bitcoin in existence so with each new Bitcoin mined further Bitcoin become rarer, increasing it's value in the long term). The best way to mine is to buy hashpower from a server farm - it's basically buying hardware from a server farm in a mountain somewhere and forgetting about it. Some people are buying the hardware themselves and doing it but this way you have overheads such as electricity to pay. I've pre-ordered hashpower from a reputable server farm which is going to be mining at 2TH/s from 28th February next year.
