Allasandra Sollberger, Chief Executive of Evermore Health, talks to the BBC about her experience buying and managing the crypto-currency Bitcoin.

As of this writing, the price of Bitcoin was 15261.92 US Dollars, a sharp rise over recent weeks but in a bit of a recovery from the highs of two weeks ago (topping the 19K mark).

"So you see I bought Bitcoin in 2012," Ms. Sollberger shows via her laptop to the BBC correspondent. "You see in the middle of 2012 the price was about $9. I bought around 400 Bitcoins. And right now, fast forwarding, we are around $18,000."

Sollberger says she no longer owns 40 Bitcoins, but still holds onto around a dozen.
