Add billionaire Mark Cuban to those who are skeptical of bitcoin and the cryptocurrency universe. "I think it's in a bubble. I just don't know when or how much it corrects. When everyone is bragging about how easy they are making $=bubble," Cuban said in a tweetstorm on Tuesday.
Cuban's tweetstorm comes on the heels of bitcoin's latest record high ( http://uk.businessinsider.com/bitcoin-price-soars-to-a-record-high-2017-6 ) near $2,900 a coin. The cryptocurrency has gained in 33 of the past 38 sessions, tacking on 144% over that time. It's up 200% so far in 2017.
Here's Cuban's full tweetstorm...

Anyone anywhere can buy a stock. #crypto is like gold. More religion than asset. Except of course gold makes nice jewelry. #crypto notsomuch https://twitter.com/criptomonedastv/status/872117212655628288

In many respects it is. But it can be immediately translated into assets. #crypto is valued in dollars for a reason https://twitter.com/bhoraticle/status/872119437872082944

I guess he's still trying to learn about it. He makes other positive points about blockchain too.

He may well be right. Bitcoin has been in many bubbles before but aslways survives. If bitcoin corrects and loses50% of its value, it will still be worth more than it was at the begining of the year (and I am convinced will probably recover before the end of 2017). You pay your money you take your chance.
