Bitcoin itself is not vulnerable, or has not proven to be so far. It is as secure as you make it. Websites & trading platforms are known & obvious targets for hackers but if you generate your own wallet (many ways) & back it up it is much safer than money in the bank. Though it is a volatile market making it more suited to day traders. There is a lot of genius put into this & banks are trying to replicate the blockchain revolution except they are calling it decentralized where as in reality it is just a bunch of banks agreeing with each other using a proven technology. It's at some all time highs now but MACD & other technical indicators say buy. No brokerage fees. Much easier to understand. Much more secure. No inflation, more like deflation. It's never been hacked. I'm not buying at these prices - though I can see them going higher.
