<p>Well, in that case you would be trading MSFT/BTC, so if the value of BTC keeps rising with comparison to MSFT and you're holding MSFT, then you will lose BTC. For now it doesn't seem like it will be worthwhile to do such a thing.</p>

If everybody knew that the value of bitcoins was always going to go up, then everybody would be buying as many as they can and the exchange rate would skyrocket. That's not happening.

@HighlyIrregular I didn't say that the value of bitcoin will **always** go up, but for now it's looking like it will continue to go up. At the end of the day it's just a matter of speculation I guess...
