Thats the ETF. And, yes, thats the next big event, as you can buy it with IRAS etc... not to mention the huge leverage you've got.

Not if you're a beginner(!!!)

Not even if you're an expert, unless you're exceptional. These boards are littered with the bodies of day traders who thought they could out-think the market. Some of them were very, very smart with decades of investment experience, fluents in many kinds of technical analysis. I notice the buy-and-holders are still here, whereas each monthly generation of traders has come and gone.

Luckily for you, buy and hold is also the easiest strategy for the beginner, in addition to being the most profitable. We may well crash fairly soon so now is not the best time to buy, but as rpietila said if you're still accumulating it doesn't matter much. Don't be a pig, just get in.

Here's a handy strategy guide for how to invest in Bitcoin, if you ever get stuck.

I know everyone has an unique opinion on the matter, but if Litecoin starts to get some major press regarding this price rise, the semi-brotherly love between Litecoin and Bitcoin is going to go away.

I think the world can have multiple coins, although I do think if Bitcoin switch to mBTC, it would undercut a lot of Litecoin's attractiveness.  Yes, I know Goat, who owns several hundreds of thousands of Litecoins and has made probably over $5-10 million dollars TODAY alone, says that the Chinese think its a better coin. But that's crap. This is speculation in its purest purest form.

That being said, I have no problem with someone making $10 million in a day off of speculation, but at some point Litecoin's price is going to cause a more heated competition.

Its also so weird, because if BTC and LTC were privately held companies they could innovate and market at lightening speed. But being communal, they really can't adapt quickly.

Like the mBTC thing. People just argue back and forth about it and nothing will ever probably change. At least not for a while.

It will be interesting what the eco-system players like Circle.com will have to say about LTC. And how businesses will feel about accepting 2 coins instead of 1?

Again if this was corporate competition the smartest team would win. But instead, BTC and LTC are more like 2 inner tubes floating down and river without much oar power. Who knows whats going to happen.

I think that $26 order is going to be filled in a few minutes. seconds.

I wasn't expecting that. China has pretty much been dead for well over a week then out of nowhere they smash straight through 6000. What happened?
