Bitcoin is an unstable crypto-currency. People are saying you shouldn't put a bunch of your money into a bitcoin wallet since it could devalue at any point. There is a lot to know about it that I do not. The basic thing is that people use computers to solve certain equations and then they get a bitcoin. Also the more bitcoins that are made the more complex those equations get.
Also, just a heads up, there's no need for a serious tag here :) You may get a joke reply or two if you don't put one up, but there will be a majority of voaters that properly answer your question.
