Jon Swarts with USA Today talked about what the Basics of a bitcoin was and how to purchase and or make it. If you are looking to make money off bit coin best to invest money that you do not mind losing should things go the wrong way. I don't think that this will be a a good investment until the governments of the world calm down... now If you are going to try to make the coin... go for it. It is the best way to make money without doing a ton of work... just watch out for hackers.
"Some basics on Bitcoin:
What is it? A Bitcoin is a decentralized digital currency. Unlike the dollar or Euro, it is backed by nothing more than its own ability to hold value, in the same way gold has for most of its history.
How can I purchase it? The most popular way is from digital exchanges like Coinbase or Mt. Gox (http://howtobuybitcoins.info/us.html), though at least one Vancouver ATM now trades Bitcoins for cash and vice versa.
How did it originate? In 2008, Bitcoin was first devised and outlined by the mysterious and pseudonymous developer(s) Satoshi Nakamoto, who mined the first 50 Bitcoins from what was called The Genesis Block on Jan. 3, 2009. Bitcoin evolved as an open-source development project, where it grew from its own mining and trading, the most notorious swap being perhaps the first that occurred in "the real world" -- 10,000 Bitcoins (now equivalent to $9 million) for two pizzas in May 2010."
