I was actually going to say that when I saw that this thread was bumped."Doesn't it cost as much or even more in electricity to mine bitcoin than they are worth?"

I know exceedingly little about these sorts of things, but it seems to me Bitcoin was only profitable for those who bought in early, when it was much easier to mine them. Nowadays... very much not worth it. I think the Bitcoin craze will peter out before long, because of that.
