Bitcoins

What the Heck is a bitcoin? I've heard it's some type of e-currency, but I heard they were dangerous or something. I'm a bit confused.

I would link you but I'm on mobile and it's all screwy for me. But a member by the name of 'Judge Dredd' posted a very detailed thread all about Bitcoins concerning what they are and how to get them. If you're interested you should check it out. Hope I helped!
