Have you invested in BitCoin or other forms of CryptoCurrency like LiteCoin, Ethereum, etc?

In 2015, investors predicted that crypto-currency would be a lot like the internet. Slow to be accepted (remember, in 1994 most Americans didn't understand or even believe much in the Internet). Soon, we may see crypto-currency surpass the dollar. With more people investing and moving towards crypto-currency, the higher the price is valued. For those who invested in 2010-2015, they have made millions. With the price of some crypto-currencies today, many people believe they are "too late" - yet these crypto-currencies show no sign of slowing down. In fact, by January 2018 BitCoin may be above $10,000 and LiteCoin above $100. 5-10 years from now BitCoin may be $500,000 - $1M a coin.

Many people are afraid to invest in something intangible, or something they don't understand. Something volatile. Remember, Google and Apple were both very risky investments in the beginning. The same can be said about crypto-currencies.

What crypto-currencies do, is take the power away from government and bank owned currency. It takes away the greedy and often times fraudulent middle man, and gives YOU, the people, full control. Your money is moved between you and another person. Crypto-currency is not centralized. It is run by you, and everyone who owns it. A global ledger is kept between every user. Every transaction is broadcast to every device connected to the network.

I can no problem believing that 5-10 years from now, perhaps even sooner, crypto-currencies will be what everyone is using.
