speculation

engagement in business transactions involving considerable risk but offering the chance of large gains, especially trading in commodities, stocks, etc., in the hope of profit from changes in the market price.

Why use another word when a perfect one already exists.

Yes it's an investment in a currency that can fluctuate at any time. High risk high reward, but stupid risk which you can rationalize to mean high risk has potential to ruin you depending on how much of you r income you are dropping.

Personally,. I prefer investing in Alternative Cryptocurrency and playing the markets like a stock exchange. It's a great way to profit if you learn how to do it properly. Buy cheap sell high, it's like a business. You can easily buy and sell the coin for Bitcoin, and you can help hype up certain coins by sharing them on forums or social media.

Tldr: Altcoins are a great way to dip your feet in a huge pool of Bitcoin investors and make more coin which are valued from Bitcoin. Use posting in forums and social media to help increase any coin's notoeriety.
