Right now Bitcoin is still in a speculative mode. Like any other form of currency, it takes awhile to establish a more consistent exchange rate. Right now people are using it as a type of speculation, but since its only four years old you can't expect it to be 100% steady. All new currencies are volatile. I wouldn't consider a ~$120 equivalency rate as of today to be a ridiculous scheme either, especially if you have the hardware to mine
