Bitcoin Forum

Cryptocurrency is a decentralized means of saving money. Many have embraced  bitcoin and invested exclusively in it while others keep on giving it negative claim upon their ideology about it.

The crypto market is liberated from the political ideology or conviction. Some believe there are myths encompassing the bitcoin which are stowed away from the knowledge on the general population.

Today the conflict among Russia and Ukraine significantly affects the monetary area and furthermore tech organizations among different ventures. Foreign organizations or firm won't have any desire to put resources into them, particularly the sanction on Russia. Individuals are starting to lose revenue on the monetary area in light of its centralized strategy, assuming this prompts bankruptcy, it will influence every one of those that have reserve funds with them.

Cryptocurrency as a decentralized means of saving money won't be impacted adversely in any way as its approach and policy has no terrible impact in the general public

As I would see it, there should be a largely if not an overall view of the different beliefs and critiques surrounding bitcoin. Not coming into conclusion without proper findings and proof to back up false claims about it.

I would rather say that Bitcoin is a decentralized way of saving money, once a vast majority of other cryptocurrencies (so called shitcoins) will make you lose money in the mid/long term.
Who really cares about Bitcoin and understands how different it is compared to the fiat system, also understand the importance of hodling it. Those who are seeking for the quick buck will get into the other coins, trade, etc, and will eventually win and lose money over time, but in the long run, I believe most of those coins will have little to no value.

Don't confuse between cryptocurrency and Bitcoin, Bitcoin is one of cryptocurrency and most of cryptocurrency is shitcoins. If you wrote cryptocurrency then I assume you're talking about shitcoins.

Most of shitcoins is centralized since it's easily to be manipulated, some of them were fully 100% centralized like Bank. Now you're talking about Ukrainian and Russian citizens, you said their monetary in crisis instead Bitcoin is the solution for them. How they can use Bitcoin when their stores didn't accept it yet?

For me, it’s safe to invest in cryptocurrencies if the wallets, exchanges and platforms that we’re using are “safe” and respects “privacy” no matter if it’s Bitcoin or any altcoin out there. But when it comes to the cryptocurrency’s history, reputation, market capitalization, trading volume, etc., “safe” isn’t the word of choice because of the market volatility and has unpredictable movement.

By answering your question in the spirit of the discussion, I think it is relatively risky to invest in cryptocurrencies if you plan on profiting on your investments. Due to its inflationary nature and value, its price may change every second/minute without any given notice, compared to all the available investment mechanisms present.

But, one thing that cryptocurrencies (BTC, to be specific) is relatively safe is that it can be a good store-of-value due to its significant and high value on the market. Many people have started investing into cryptocurrencies due to their value on the market. I guess that one of the benefits of having crypto is that you can always withdraw and cash them out without anywhere in the world.

Well the truth is that bitcoin and or other cryptocurrencies are not that “safe” in regards to investment. They would be considered highly volitile investments, if you view then as such (investments). As with any volatile food investment is should normally be a smaller more “gambling” part of a portfolio.

Will it not be affected? how negative news is often thrown into crypto and finally the price drops sharply. And plus the issue of the government banning mining, banning exchanges, and recently India levying a huge tax on cryptocurrency holdings due to the large uncontrolled flow of funds?

When it comes to investing, you need to know cryptocurrencies and Bitcoin. Cannot be compared because of their different nature when talking about cryptocurrencies means talking about all cryptos of various types. Let's get straight to the point and focus on Bitcoin. If you invest in Bitcoin then please don't include the problem that occurred as a reference. Because Bitcoin has nothing to do with war. Bitcoin is independent and works as it should even without war. Even without the Russo-Ukrainian conflict, the movement of BItcoin is relatively off track.

We have to first evaluate what do you mean by safe. Let's consider some situations here :

1. Safe from the governmental bodies
- They cannot just take your bitcoins and other cryptocurrencies and then block your accounts, how they usually do it during the times of war and such, to increase the overall value of their currency and to decrease fluidity.

2. Safe as in *value*
- You should know that cryptocurrencies are volatile which does mean that if the value is down at any moment it's going to certainly go up the next which also mean that you need to have 'patience' if you can't you are ofcourse going to loose a lot.

Safe for different people mean different things and at the end of the financial freedom, financial safety is also considerably important.

The level of safety in investment depends on each investor. Each person will have different thinking and investment methods, so they will bring different profits and risks. As with all financial investments such as forex, stocks and cryptocurrencies, there will always be certain risks. Nothing is 100% safe.

Bitcoin is indeed a safe choice because it's clear the development has clear uses, it's clear the community. However, most of the shitcoins are still in doubt because they do not have guarantees. But several other altcoins such as ETH, BNB and several altcoins that are included in the CMC top 10 list can still be trusted because they can see their progress.

Investing in crypto, even if it's bitcoin or altcoin, both have risks due to price fluctuations and high volatility. For those who can't manage crypto investments well then they will lose their profits.

It is safe as long as you know how to handle your investment and knows what you are investing on.
There are lots of investor right now who just came into crypto because of the profit that they heard or seen by someone.
Every investment has their own risk so investor should know how to handle it.

So if you think there are large conflict of belief and disbelief then at the end of day it’s all about what side you choose and how you make it more brighter. For me crypto currency is whole new era and just like we can’t live without our phones These days, I’m not able to live without crypto currency! That’s how the life has become now and it’s totally different before I got introduced with the crypto. For me, I have developed immense interest in the same and I think it’s my belief so that’s my choice at the end of day.

Now coming to the safety of crypto, well in the financial zone there is always conflicts. You have to have good management skills. The more you risk it the more you loose it. Crypto is safe heaven if you play well with it.

A good analogy if it's about a person that's part of the war, it's safe to invest in crypto because you're literally saving your assets by converting them into cryptocurrencies.
But for someone who's new to investments, it's not really safe at all. They may not take how high the fluctuations are and that could lead them to a very big discouragement upon experiencing and seeing it personally that the value of their assets is dropping if the market goes down.

No investment is safe in a war like situation. Still compared to fiat and precious metals, bitcoin has probably done better. The stock market in my country is catching up on greens and thus the effect of the war was temporary even though it has not ended yet.

While weighed against the long term pros and cons of Bitcoin, there is ample support to the fact that Bitcoin is a good investment compared to other fiat sectors. That is what should be used as a metric, not a temporary change in the world.

Truely the long term effects of the war cannot be predicted today, but whatever happens because bitcoin is decentralised and will be in a position to be traded freely everywhere in future, it will be a better mode of transaction and store of value.

Nowadays investing in bitcoin and other cryptos is way safer and simpler than years ago. Before it was a huge bet, the whole system could've failed any moment, now we have even big companies and banks investing in cryptos. Of course there still are a lot of scams and price volatility, it's something that mustn't be forget, but in the long run we should be fine.

I agree with this, for example while driving a car has an inherent level of risk as everything else, truth to be told driving a car can be made to be way safer as long as you can drive responsibly, while it can also be made a lot more risky if you drive under the influence of alcohol or controlled substances and you do not respect the rules of the road.

And this market is the same, if you have a strong money management strategy that controls your risk, you store your coins safely and you only invest in bitcoin then you are making your journey here as safe as possible, but if you do not have a strategy, store your coins in a computer full of viruses and pirated software and invest in shitcoins then your journey here will not be safe at all.

Too big to fail? Probably but not into the point that you could really be having some assurance because everything could fail or shall we say that there might be other coins which would overtake bitcoin into this manner.

The main key on here is that invest on the amount or money that you can afford to lose as always because you couldnt be sure on what would happen since future isnt something guaranteed.

I do agree though that on these years it is much more safer than or compared into the past considering the adoption and recognition rate.

Cryptocurrency is been misunderstood by general public, once I here cryptocurrency, I count Bitcoin out of them, although it's a cryptocurrency too, but it's must safer and reliable.
Regardless of the conflicts and policies, Bitcoin will restore its reputation as the most trustworthy cryptocurrency. Even despite all of these disagreements, the general public continues to embrace Bitcoin.

Until now, investing in crypto is still very safe. crypto is a common word, if you invest in it by choosing a trusted coin, you don't have to doubt your money. You only do an analysis before investing so you don't lose when a dump occurs. crypto is not safe, if you invest in a new project, a lot of fraudulent projects happen. lots of coins left by their owners. to our detriment. so if investing, always be careful in choosing coins.

Your title sounded like you wanted to know if crypto currencies are safe to invest or not, but your post says something else which is very confusing to understand what you are actually trying to express.
If you are talking about how safe it is, then you should know that it is "safe" as long as you invest only what you can afford to lose. This is because the market is very volatile and the volatility can catch you off guard. It is safer if you invest in well known crypto currencies and hold them for long term.

And yes, you are right. People shouldn't come to a conclusion about crypto currencies without doing their own study. Sadly most people follow those mainstream media which spreads FUD on regular basis.

In all aspects of investments, there is no guaranteed safe and secured. All comes with risks and losses. However, if you have skills and proven strategies to make your investment works, that gives you an edge over the market. But with cryptocurrencies more particularly bitcoin, you will never go wrong investing in it as long as you always buy at the dip and sell at its peak.

From what I got from your post, crypto won't be affected much by whatever issues that could arise from the Russian Ukraine issue right? On the title first though, it's safe if you consider how you're your own bank, that is unless you use centralized exchanges then well, you're pretty much ruining the idea and are only there for the investment part most likely. On the post itself though, it wouldn't bring any significant change imo, the biggest change would've already happened at the start really and seeing as it didn't really do anything, I don't think the Russia Ukraine issue would still affect the market.

Of course, every investment has its own risks, such as investing in the world of cryptocurrency, of course, there will also be loopholes to break into or we lose assets in bitcoin if we are not careful in carrying out intensive supervision at all times, for example, bitcoin security against cross-sectional assets is also closely monitored. by the bitcoin itself but if there is a scam then we also can't do much about the assets we have, but this is very rare in the world of Cryptocurrency

In times of war, Bitcoin is a much better option for you to keep your wealth intact. Not only will you be controlling your funds even in the middle of destruction, you will also be making sure that your wealth's value is not affected by the economic repercussions of the war. However, given that shops and stores are still not accepting Bitcoin, it is always best to have a good amount of cash in your possession, an amount which you could easily carry across international borders should the necessity arise.

This is not true like many have pointed out. Most of the cryptocurrencies actually are not very decentralized. It does not matter if there are nodes or miners around the world if there is still private company or founders or some foundation on top of that with power to change the system, change its rules, protocols or whatever.

Bitcoin is the only one which has true decentralization with wide enough spread around the world and no founder or company in the center of it.

After understanding this, it is very safe to invest in Bitcoin in the long term. In short term it is very volatile, meaning price will change much, because it is still very young assett so it is still in price discovery phase.

Why is it safe to invest in Bitcoin? Because it has open rules which everyone can verify from its open source code and it is immutable. It is and wants to be system that does not change it rules. System where you can trust for it to remain the same. No matter what happens in the world, no matter who has how much money, no one still has power to change the rules of how it operates. Not even the most powerful government in the world.

That is why it is very safe to invest in it. So now you just need to learn more about it. Learn:
- How it operates
- What are the immutable rules it has
- What are the halvings
- What are all the use cases of how people around the world uses it and why
- What are the problems with fiat money that Bitcoin fixes
- What is inflation
- How Bitcoin helps green energy shift making green nergy more affordable
etc.

Good luck on your journey. If you learn these things, it will change your life for the better. For yourself, for the people close to you and for the nature and climate of this planet.

I wouldn't also trust in that assumption of "if wallets, exchanges and platforms we're using  are safe". There is this quite old saying: Not your keys, not your money, We have numerous examples of (mainly) exchanges falling down due to mismanagement, poor coding, poor and bad security practices, hackings and even states/justice bringing down platforms over hacks to attempt to return money to costumers and most of the times, costumers get nothing back. So, I would be very careful!

Everything that is made on computer code, is prone to errors, bugs and therefore, exploitation, no matter how much you invest in OpSec. So, in extreme situations, you want to have your own security and truly understand it. I heard someone say something like this, which I completelyagree, somewhere in the past: If you have an extremely complete and complex OpSec that you don't fully understand, will be a worse OpSec than a simpler one which you deeply know and understand.

Cryptocurrency is a risky investment because of its high volatility and also very profitable, but not all investment in crypto is risky in as much as you do your research thoroughly and invest in the right coin, people might complain about pump and dump in crypto but it's actually being done also in stock market, so this doesn't mean that crypto is not really safe

And what are you trying to say about cryptocurrency is risky and not all investment in cryptocurrency is risky? That sounds contradicting lol.
And if not ALL investment in cryptocurrency is risky, can you enumerate types of investment in crypto that does not bear a risk?
 In terms of investing into the right coin that only means investing in Bitcoin, because most altcoins bears a lot of risk than hodling Btc.

I think Ethereum is also among the alts the one with the most decentralization,,, and this comes from me a person who used to think it was not. To be fair, no coin can be decentralized from the beginning, and no coin can claim 100% decentralization but Bitcoin is the only one and with Ethereum catching up,,, that can be said to be in control of no single person.

That is important as you say, but as I also said in an earlier post on an altcoin thread utility is really the true marker of value. Bitcoin and Ethereum have real, actual users.

Everyone else is pretending or incentivizing utility.

Bitcoin is a source of income for many families who were poor, but they need capital

Altcoins are actually more risky investments than Bitcoin. Moreover, the price of altcoins in satosh almost always falls, which is why it is believed that investing in bitcoin is the most profitable. There are cases when some altcoins grow very well, but finding such a token for investment is not easy. There are thousands of altcoins, and only one bitcoin.

To assess the safety of investing into cryptos, one can roughly estimate how the price changed over time and figure how much can be lost and how likely (and how fast) it can be recovered if one keeps hodling. So unless we take the last ATH point of Bitcoin which wasn't reached yet after the prices fell, Bitcoin does lose about 50% of value from time to time, sometimes over the course of a short period, such as one month. But losses around 15% are more common. Also, Bitcoin does bounce back eventually, but it can easily take half a year, and in older history took around 3 years, actually (from December 2017 till December 2020). Of course, one must also remember that if something didn't happen before, it doesn't mean it'll never happen in the future.

               You should be clear with what you are talking about. Crypto currencies as a whole is definitely not a safe haven specially for beginners or even veterans that do not know basic technical analysis or the basic "dos and don'ts" when looking for a good coin to invest in. Heck, even bitcoin cannot be considered a safe investment due to it's volatility. Not unless you are investing money you can forget about and ignore regardless of market conditions. But yes, given the right conditions and the qualities bitcoin has, it is indeed a safe investment to some extent.

The most important thing when investing is to always think 2 sides, namely profit and loss, all types of investments that provide large profit opportunities then automatically the opportunity to lose is also large, and what I like about bitcoin is that the opportunity for big profits is very easy to achieve even in a short time, but we should always be wise not to sell all assets or put all money into bitcoin.

That just tells you how shitty other altcoins are.


I don't know if you know this, but 70% of the total Ethereum supply has been premined. Also, last time I checked top 100 addresses owned ~40% of all ETH which is a much higher number than BTC has (afaik its 14%). Given those numbers, Ethereum is still far from BTC.


That is also questionable. Remember the DAO hack from 2016 when Vitalik & co decided to rollback the network in order to negate $50 million worth of exploit? By the way I am not saying that ETH is shitcoin, but in all things that really matter it can't compare to Bitcoin, especially if you look at it from the long term hold point of view.

Yeah of course there always is the possibility of failure, just like in everything else in this world. I agree about investing only what you can afford to lose, but as I was saying if someone decides to take a small, I repeat small, extra risk, doing it now it's easier compared some years ago. As usual there is a huge difference buying bitcoin or Ethereum rather than some shitcoin hoping it makes 300x.

Ethereum is not very decentralized. PoS will make it even less decentralized because then the richer you are, the more power over the network you have. In Bitcoin no one has more power over anyone else, no matter how rich you are. And most important thing is that Ethereum has Vitalik and co. running everything, no matter how decentralized it would be otherways. They can make decisions to affect the whole network. So it is a big red flag regarding decentralization.

One more thing is premine. Bitcoin had zero coins premined. Ethereum just gave millions at the start to their founders and their friends. Again, huge red flag.

Of course it is a volatile investment, which is why anyone who is investing has to be careful. But, being a volatile investment doesn’t make Bitcoin a bad Stock or asset.  The problem is that people never plan themselves properly while they are about to invest in Bitcoin. Some of them don’t even understand what they are doing, they always just come in based on stories that they have heard.

And knowing how the media is, we only hear the news about people who has been successful investing in cryptocurrency, but we hardly see any media that carries news about those that has lost their money. So people usually think that it is an easy thing, and they just go in without having a good strategy or preparation, and that makes them to end up losing their money.

Don't put cryptocurrencies and bitcoin in the same basket when it comes to safety of investment. Putting money in bitcoin is very safe as long as you can accept short term volatility. If your goal is 3+ years in that time span you can be sure that either the stable average price will be higher or at least the volatility will give you some options to sell at a profit. IMO it's going to be the first option but if you become impatient there's going to be a higher price for you to capitalize on.

Altcoins are a 50/50 bet. I've seen enough of them die not to expect much. A dollar put in bitcoin is always a safer choice than that dollar invested in a pump and dump scheme like dogecoin.

Even with volatility, investment in crypto is not a day-to-day operation. That's day trading and it's akin to gambling with built in risk incurred by the trader. Long term investing also has built in risk, but it's fairly minimal and you'd have to actually try to lose value on your assets over the long term (or make some terribly unfortunate investments). What's risky is leaving your finances in traditional currencies which have a built in mechanism of inflation, targeted at 2 percent yearly. Seeing current trends, the real numbers they're willing to admit to are easily 5%+ depending on the currency.

Everything would really be depending on projects potential on which even just on a year duration basis then 5% increase would really be just minimal or already conservative kind of approach speaking

with yearly gains but not all would really be that patient and selection of coins that we would be dealing on would really be varying on each person thats why outcome couldnt really be just the same.
Safe is something a word that doesnt really fit out on this market because even good coins do plummets on a year time so its not really giving out some assurance.

I don't know what you tell it day trading or long trading. After opening a trade I never sell at loss. I wait until the price reached a minimum profitable stage per day. if my target is filled within a day then it's good I close the trade, If the target is not filled on the first day I wait for a couple of days but I don't sell at loss anymore. I do follow this way when the market shows a boring stable stage like the past couple of months market showed a boring movement between 30K to 40K. But when it started to give a bullish signal I like to keep holding for long term, like now the market is giving potential bullish signals, I paused my short trading and open a long trade from 40K.

5% is still significant. Keep in mind this is essentially a regressive tax. Inflation hits the lower class the hardest, so if the purchasing power can't be at least maintained, it surely should not be reduced, let alone reduced by design. If the rate was kept at 2% and central banks were okay with inflating the currency at that rate in order to maintain economic activity, I'd still say crypto (bitcoin in particular) would be "safer" without regression built in by design. Bitcoin's deflationary, it could theoretically only get more valuable if the market decided that it holds value as the total potential supply gets lower. Currency is targeted at 2 percent but they don't maintain those goals year over year, at least not post-COVID.



That's fair, but my point is geared towards the idea of relative risk between a long term investor and a day-to-day trader. Day trading incurs more risk, generally speaking. That's not true for everyone, of course.

There are no investments that would mean safe from losses these days. But investing in bitcoin has become safer today because its now starting to be more recognized and even big institutional investors are already investing in it. However, if you want to take advantage of the market despite of its price volatility, having good knowledge and skills in the crypto market will help you manage the risk and increase your chances to be more profitable and become successful in your investments.

Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies have entered the category of safe haven assets such as gold because of their scarcity, or entered into commodities, some even call cryptocurrencies as utility tokens.

How safe this cryptocurrency investment is depends on the crypto project itself. Is the project viable, able to be useful as technology develops or not, able to become an alternative or can they become mainstream. And most importantly how do we store it safely.

So far, Bitcoin has received the title of the best investment, which is able to provide returns of tens of thousands of percent in a matter of years. Whether or not it is safe to invest in Bitcoin depends on how we store our bitcoins.

Fiat is now starting to lose its power and value in times of war but having bitcoin is a good option to store your wealth without losing its value despite of the destructions caused by the war. The current war has served an eye opener for us that storing most of your wealth in fiat is never a safe and secured option. But with bitcoin, it will always be safe. However, as most of the countries are still favoring fiat as their only currency, then we should always have good amount of cash in our own pocket.

AFAIK, it said was one of the growing investments but it is also one of the riskiest investments. Well, we know the risk in investing but crypto is quite different and we consider the scam issue that changes and ruin its reputation.
if we only just talking about Bitcoin, therefore, it was obviously the best but since OP is mentioning cryptocurrency, in general, which is literally a risky investment.

https://www.fool.com/investing/stock-market/market-sectors/financials/cryptocurrency-stocks/is-cryptocurrency-good-investment/

one should know the risks involved even if we are talking BTC here. the volatility factor is still one of the factors to consider if you are storing it long-term. however, as compared to other alts, BTC has very good foundation that we all know won't disappear without a warning. whereas most alts have no reason to exist, hence, a lot of of them are disappearing into thin air.
we can't assure the safety of crypto investments, but we can lessen our potential losses if we will keep ourself updated with its market.

Inflation getting much higher when price of oil rise, it triggers the inflation rate to soar up this is why we see the fiat buying power lessen. But it doesn't mean that we need to have bitcoin since as far as we know bitcoin is so volatile and its really bad for newbies to have this without proper knowledge since they will end up losing a value and get affected by major manipulation that happen sometimes in crypto. But if we think about investment and put it on hold for much longer time then we can say that its really worth since the value of it rise over years if there's a good news or adoption happen.

Although crypto can't skip the definition of not being safe due to the volatility. And the risk is higher than gold and other commodities and that's why crypto can't be categorized for being safe in risk.
But if it's about safety that your money is at good hands, the definition and understanding changes there so the technical definition is set aside and people are saying that they've safely invested to bitcoin because it's the best crypto asset.

There is no asset in the whole world that is 100% safe , there are various ways to classify the safetines of a digital asset
 
1.In terms of security ( when you talk about hackings)
2.Volatility or fluctuations ( instability in the price of that asset)
3 safe in terms of regulation. ( In terms of Government ban)
If a digital asset has these 3 above mentioned aspect I think I will say that asset is safe investment but bringing it to crypto all this point is yet to be guaranteed so it's somewhat safe and not totally safe.

Investing in bitcoin is a risk due to volatility. But the risk of loss occurs when you decide to sell for a lower price than you bought. As long as you don't sell you can save your investment and make a profit.
On the other hand, sometimes we stop to see the risks of investing in bitcoin without taking into account the times we have won.
Bitcoin is invaluable, it is the pioneer digital asset to cross borders to reach the hands of many and provide them with solutions that governments and banks did not dare. When you send bitcoin to pay bills outside your borders, you contribute to the economy of any country.
My best experience in bitcoin was at the beginning of the pandemic when its price fell due to uncertainty and it exceeded all that time and the same is happening now. Bitcoin is a safe investment and with the risks that we are willing to bear.

You wrote a lot and I confess I didn't understand anything, what exactly do you want?

1 - every investment has its risks and bitcoin is no exception

2 - bitcoin is a high risk investment and obviously people before investing need to do research to avoid comparing at one point and then the price drops and they regret and sell and then the price recovers again, these are questions that you should study hard before investing

I agree with you in battle, bitcoin and crypto are better choice than fiat money because we can control our entire assets. Storing them is also quite simple and convenient with no frills like fiat and gold.

But speaking of unaffected property values, I don't think so. Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies are considered highly volatile assets, so it cannot guarantee the value of the asset intact if we are in a bear market.

Every investment has risk and there's no such thing as safe because there's no guarantee that you'll gain if you invest. However if you invest in Bitcoin, the chances to gain from it is high as long as you're not impatient and can bear seeing the market turning up and down.

Thats why before investing, we should fill our mind with knowledge of what we're getting into to prepare ourselves incase something went wrong. Even many investors are believing Bitcoin can make them rich, it is still a must to only invest what you can afford to lose and much better to have less expectation.

Always do a lot of analysis before investing, when we get to know bitcoin and cryptocurrencies the first thing we do is use spare money to invest, don't use main money because the market is unpredictable, I hear a lot of people stress and commit suicide because of debt and lose assets because of investing in bitcoin in 2017 and when 2018 the market dropped and this became an important lesson for us.

Every investment we make to take good profits from that venture. Crypto is one of big investment projects. If we look at history of cryptocurreny so many coins go to many times high so reason behind is people investment. We also will serach and analysis about this cryptocurreny and then go for investment. It will more be safer if all nation can make some regulations about that but now at this point it is safe but in prices ups down it is very risky

I know all about the premine and all about the DAO,,, which is why I felt for many years Ethereum was actually just a total scam. I changed my mind and yes I agree PoS is worse for it and all that,,, but Ethereum to me is going in a direction of development that is less and less centralized.

Hence why they are always slow and delayed in updates. If they were centralized as before decisions would happen immediately.

My thoughts anyway :)


The DAO event and all that was the main reason I was absolutely against Ethereum for so long, I have to go back to my history to see exactly which years or which time I became less against them.

I totally agree ETH cannot compare to Bitcoin, it is number 2 and far away from number 1. And honestly, number 3 is also very far away,,, I have no number 3 in mind.

Actually, market volatility can't be predicted, in my opinion, investing in crypto will have ups and downs, but crypto currency is still safe to invest in, it can't be denied because currently crypto is the investment most interested in by millennials in all countries, although sometimes the price drops like rain, but that doesn't mean that investment is not safe, but that's how the system invests, sometimes it's up, sometimes it's down.

It is safe to say that cryptocurrency could be the riskiest investment of anyone’s life if they do not know what they are doing. Doesn't mean that it should be that way forever, but it could be very risky if you are not well versed in how that works. I know so many people who got scammed, who sent money to wrong places, who lost in wrong trading information, who lost it in leverage in a second because of not understanding how the system works.

All in all, there are plenty of ways that you could lose your money in crypto and unlike fiat world, there is no reversal here so you can't just press charges, that money will be forever gone. So, you need to be veeeeery careful when you are first starting.

And the risk can vary, they can be low, medium, and high. Investing in cryptocurrencies can be rated as a high-risk investment, it is because they are highly volatile but on top of that, the rewards that you can expect are also higher than other investments.

There is no problem with bitcoin itself but the problem is in the exchanges, wallets and other platforms because they can sometimes be exploited however scams can be easily avoidable if you have already have an experience on this field. They are not deadly as the hacks but both hacking and scamming are not a rare thing in the crypto world but they actually happen all the time.

I agree with you, by always carry out personal research or analysis before investing to a particular coin to enable you to understand the market conditions at the moment. Bitcoin price is unpredictable, that is why is advisable to  investors not to use huge amount of capital or loan to  invest on bitcoin because the price can change at anytime either to favour the long-term investors or not to favour at the period. I believe many people has learned from other people mistakes not to use main money on bitcoin investment than to use little to invest to see what future will bring.

If all cryptocurrencies, it is clear that investing in them carries great risks. Even many investment experts avoid cryptocurrencies, plus the many scam projects and useless tokens make cryptocurrency a ponzi paradise (although there are some good cryptos and have real use cases).

Depends on the altcoin we are talking about. If this is eth or bnb we are talking about, or even ltc, then we are talking about a bit more stability compared to some of the other ones as well. LTC is not even in top 20 anymore, mainly because there are way too many stablecoins for some reason, but it is still a very solid and stable coin compared to all the other new projects.

So, what you are saying is true, bitcoin is more stable and less risky than 99% of the market but that also means that we are talking about a few coins that could be similar to bitcoin when it comes to less risk and I believe that we should consider them the same way.

Other than the trusted top order cryptocurrencies there is always risk with cryptocurrency investment. As mentioned more number of traditional stock investors never look for the cryptocurrency investment. In recent months this has changed and more traditional investors have turned towards cryptocurrency investment. One such happened with the statement of Goldman Sachs terming bitcoin to compete gold as a store of value, years back bitcoin was termed as a ponzi by Goldman Sachs.

With time changes have been taking place with the network, so is with the investors who once revealed negative thoughts about bitcoin.

It shouldn’t always be about what people thinks about cryptocurrency, it should be what you yourself thinks about it. I don’t really care about people’s opinion as long as I believe that something is right. Some people have a problem with seeing what is right, when they see something right they tend to condemn it and only choose what is wrong. This can be due to misunderstanding and lack of information.

If you truly understand cryptocurrency and you feel it is right for you to invest in it, then you don’t need anybody’s opinion on it. This is your own money that you are investing in the market and it it’s not other persons money, it is yours so you have the full right to do as it pleases you when it is your money.

Broadly speaking, the top of the crypto market cap is the safest investment. Bitcoin, Ethereum, BNB, LTC and other top lists are proven safe and are favorites of well-known investors as you mentioned Goldman Sachs and several BTC critics who have turned pro crypto.

I think how safe we are to invest in crypto depends on how much we understand crypto and how much experience we have with conditions in the crypto market. If we don't understand what crypto is then crypto is the worst place for us to invest.

Not only the moment you begin but also if you are already ready at investing, it is best to always use spare money because like you said the market is not predictable and at any moment we can lose but that's okay and acceptable because it was not the main money that we use but if ever we earn a profit then that's nice. We can keep some of that profit and use that for re investing till we can grow it bigger.

It is okay to get stressed but it should not get to the point of ending your life. Money can still be replaced anyway but not our lives. It is also bad to enter because of hypes, like what happened to the people that invest in the year 2017, as it can only discourage you once the hype is over.

Bitcoin is decentralized and Bitcoin is quite safe for you to invest. If you say cryptocurrencies are not safe at the moment because of the war between Russia and Ukraine, I think you are wrong. Cryptocurrencies have many other Altcoins, the negative problem caused is more for Altcoins centered in these two countries. Supposedly when chaos occurs the only best solution to save our money is in Bitcoin. The biggest fear with our finances is inflation after the war. The financial turmoil of our country can be seen from the experience of the First World War. Money will be meaningless, massive inflation occurs in these countries.

Even up tontjis moment, many still look up to cryptocurrency as a bubble that is almost ready to burst. With each increase 8n price bringing it to its elastic limit. Is that really it people? Because I think not!

Over the years, I've learnt not to go both foot in all cryptocurrency but, I can't say the same for bitcoin. Although, in doing this, one has still got to play by the rules and always invest with what you can afford to loose.  This little pennies grow on you and can turn out to be what you can't afford to loose but the main idea is, at your time of investment, it was what won't cost us such and you should have a plan for your investment.

Bitcoin is relatively the safest cryptocurrency out there, truly decentralized and have been known to stand the test of time. Its the only coin I could recommend for an investment.

I'm on Bitcointalk since 2014, but knew about Bitcoin since 2012-2013. Generally, cryptocurrencies have been proven to be worthwhile investments throughout the years, providing that you do your own research. Don't stumble upon a few shitcoins, hundreds of them are popping up every single day, and then blame cryptocurrencies for losing your money. The same thing could also apply to the stock market, by obtaining worthless stocks.

Bitcoin, Ethereum, Binance coin, Polkadot are a few notable options to invest, however, there are plenty of others out there waiting for you to seize the day.

P.S Woo 1900th post.

The risk is really there, it found no exemptions in all kinds of investment but what makes this crypto investment consist of higher risk it was because of the volatile nature. However, the choice of the top coins in the market seems to be the best and ideal option to risk. Many people had lose their money in crypto because of having no idea and knowledge about this stuff, and even it is even seen in the stock market as well.
 
The investment gives no SAFE assurance as it totally depends on us but I guess working it and investing knowledge here gives some light and safety to our funds.

There's no such thing as safe investment, unless we're talking about bank deposits, which provide you with a tiny bit of interest every 3/6/12 months. However, there are definitely options that could be safer than others, such as investing on Stablecoin smart contracts, rather than other contracts which involve pairs with high volatility, susceptible to impermanent loss (IL).

Bitcoin is giving us an opportunity to save our money we are the only one who has full control of it and no banks can decline or hold it if anything goes wrong with ourselves. The authority cannot force us to withdraw it from our wallets even though they know the balance inside, they are just totally helpless and with that, we can securely save our assets from any other form of disaster especially wars and sudden chaos in our country. Imagine everyone is worried about their money in the banks and the banks are closed due to some sort of disaster, in the other hand, you are fine because you keep your BTC in a safe place.

investing in the cryptocurrency world certainly has its own advantages where miners can control their assets very securely so they can avoid hacking by irresponsible people, especially in the cryptocurrency world we are free to withdraw assets with unlimited limits if miners want to leave the bitcoin world for a long time so that it can be done in the digital currency

this is also a big disadvantage, imagine that someone withdraws money from the bank and buys 1 bitcoin and decides to keep it in his wallet and the next day this person gets sick and is hospitalized without being able to speak, the family has no money and is starving and days later the person who is hospitalized dies and the family does not know about the existence of bitcoin, and they went through difficulties for many, many years, but if the person had kept the $47000 in the bank, the family would have access to the money and could cover expenses of food and take to do some business

Without mincing words, I will tell you straight up that it's not safe investing in cryptocurrency. A lot of investors have been wrecked through that but then is there any business venture that's absolutely safe to invest in? Nah! Every business comes with a certain level of risk. There's none without it. Except that crypto is mostly unpredictable. There's a caveat that people should not invest more than they can afford to lose, and it's rightly so. Again, if you want to minimize risk to a greater extent I would advise that you invest in Bitcoin only.

There are no 100% safe investments, things like that don't exist. And I would argue that that's not the important part here. Crypto wasn't initially thought up for investment purposes and was an ideological far cry from what it is today, but those core principles still hold true to this day. It's hard to say how crypto will look in the future as it will definitely need to adapt for it to become more accessible and adoptable, and some of those core principles will, unfortunately, have to be left on the sidelines.

Every investment that can store assets from its owner certainly has an advantage, of course, it cannot be separated from several factors.such as asset storage in cryptocurrency, which is very easy to reach by the miners themselves.so it is not easy to be hacked by irresponsible people. currently rampant hacking of assets from owners is certainly something we should be aware of considering that we have to control the assets we store anywhere, including cryptocurrencies.

Due to its volatility, crypto will always be a way more risky investment than any traditional stocks like gold or shares of top companies.

At the same time, there's a number of advantages, so it is highly recommended to do your own research and estimate the risks vs potential profits.

Even though there are some good projects but still investing in crypto is something that is very risky and indeed very high risk.
must be aware of this because indeed this is related to money and of course when it comes to money then it is definitely very dangerous to do.
Accuracy is very important in this case besides continuous learning is also very important because even though they are very difficult to predict but by learning all these movements it will be a pretty good thing at least we can minimize failure

Even though there's high risk incurred in crypto investment, it can still be considered to be safe if we're very conversant with the market structure and also able to run our analysis properly.

It should also be registered in our minds that there's virtually little or no investment without risk, so as an investor If there's anything to always be prepared for, it's risk.

Bitcoin is indeed a store of value. I believe it is safe to invest in cryptocurrency in general despite all the negative news circulating the mainstream media. As long as you know how to store well your private keys and do all safety measures in order to secure your funds, then youvhave nothing to sorry about.

Bitcoin can act as both mode of payment and store of value. In fact, a lot of people nowadays use it for both of its functionalities. It is very handy and convenient for people to have their assets stored in crypto because it can accummulate over time, and it is not prone to inflation as well as hacking, only if you know how to store and handle well your account's information.

If people would be knowledgeable enough about bitcoin, there would be so many advantages and benefits waiting for them out there. Vast opportunities such as profiting due to their skills and techniques could be given. Hopefully, more people would see bitcoin as a thing to entrust so they could make the most of what they have.

If asked to invest in a crypto is safe or not then the answer can be safe and can also be risky, depending on how the assets are managed. one person with another will certainly get different results in investing in crypto because it depends on how their strategy and how they manage their respective assets. Regarding the ongoing war, I don't think it's only cryptocurrencies that will be affected, but other fields will also be affected. so that's one of the risks of a war where it has an impact on market prices dropping drastically. basically because I little more knowledgeable about the crypto world so I think the crypto investment is a safe and profitable investment..

I tried to imagine how wonderful it would be if the actual picture wasn't the opposite.  Bitcoin is more than just a thing that can exert its inherent power, yes value is what creates false opinions and arguments to increase the position of the intrusion.  You can see the volatility of bitcoin is far different from that of crypto.  Either way for any of the parties involved, I think it will be difficult to merge

Just because there is a big upside potential shouldn't mean a guaranteed investment anyway. Bitcoin is as guaranteed as it gets in the crypto world and even that has like 50% drops, where do you see that kind of drops in the regular stock world, sure some drops but 50% is very rare there, happens like maybe once a decade, or to very bad stocks.

This is why I believe that we shouldn't really be shocked at the results, we should be feeling a bit more comfortable about the fact that it is risky but its fine because we are getting into it since it has a better chance to change our lives completely if we are right and that is what people trust.

It's not that it's not safe, it's just that you need to know that it's very risky and also not like the conventional investing in the stock market.

If you say crypto currency maybe all types of crypto currency will be included there, such as shitcoin, altcoin and bitcoin, I dare not say other coins are not safe to invest, but I do not dare to invest other than bitcoin, because I believe more in investing in bitcoin compared to other coins, because in my personal opinion investing in bitcoin is very safe, easy and reliable, because as long as I invest in bitcoin I have never once felt cheated, the risk I face is only a matter of price, sometimes it goes up like a ladder, sometimes it goes down like raindrops.

Before start investing in bitcoin, you need to thoroughly understand all about the security and storage of your coins. This is a very important moment that you can not miss and hope that everything will be fine. Therefore, it is very important to take the time to study all the issues that interest you and only after that buy bitcoin. If at some point something is not clear to you, you can ask a question on this forum and they will answer you.

Personally, I am interested in bitcoin for investment, so the issue of reliable storage is very important for me. At the moment, the Ledger wallet is considered one of the most convenient and reliable options. A cold wallet is also considered safe, but it is not so easy to manage.

Bitcoin has very big prospects in the future, it is much better than fiat money, it is not subject to inflation. I believe that the price of this asset will grow very much in a few years and this will bring a very good profit to everyone who understands this now and will patiently hold bitcoin. Over time, people will increasingly trust cryptocurrencies, they will be in their daily circulation, and it is important to understand this now, when everything is just beginning.

Cryptocurrency is safe for me because if i buy bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies i do see it in my wallet without asking someone to help for monitoring my investment, and when market is going against you in market you know and when you are making a profit you also know, so because is a currency you can know it movement i think is safe, but some people only think of the profit alone but not really boarded of it positive, when market is dip your investment is safe but when is in bearish your investment is yielding.

A very important skill that a trader needs to have is to accurately evaluate the risk they are taking and the possible reward they can get against each other and decide if it is worth it, however this is a difficult skill to obtain and it is without a doubt one of the great flaws of the newbies that are just entering the market.

After all when they invest in a shitcoin they only see the potential profits they could make, but they never consider the risk they need to incur to get those profits, because if they did it they will soon realize that it was not worth to invest in such a shitcoin, when the possibility of losing all the capital they invest in it is so ridiculously high.

To me I will say cryptocurrency is safe to invest in became it used cryptography to secure transaction and it didn't have any central issue, instead using a suburbanized system to record all the transactions. Though, is at risk to invest but is safe if we're acquainted with the market. It also safe because you know when market is going against you, and when you are making profit because is a currency that one can no it movement and easy to monitor.

Honestly, crypto is more fertile ground than any other out there, but each one needs to be taken seriously and disciplined to limit side risks.  Every investment corner has different levels of risk tolerance, but it is a road with a future ahead.  Therefore, the management of risky assets is an urgent task with an obligation to learn and improve.

yes it is risk to invest in cryptocurrency but no investment that is not risk both offline business or investment and online investment, for cryptocurrency investment is sure investment but it is investment that requires time investigation to know if what you are investing on is from legit source or not, %30 of investors who registered into cryptocurrency investment today and get lost is people who did not make successful research of the coin, the risk of coin come's in when their is no potential investigation result

Even if you do involved yourself with traditional investments then risk would be always present even on simple decisions in life does have some risks into it and thats why we should really accept that fact or reality.

Never ever tend to mind off about being safe because once you do step your foot on crypto investment then prepare out yourself with lots of possibilities of losing your money.

So the way you do able to handle is to make yourself knowledgeable and skillful and of course having that risk taker kind of mindset.

Every investment certainly has its own risks.but investing in the world of cryptocurrency, of course we can control the assets that we have stored in cryptocurrencies with a relatively high level of security so that they are not easily broken into by hackers or scammers who are not responsible for the assets that are stolen.we have today, maybe this is one of the advantages of storing assets in cryptocurrencies so that there is no longer any sense of concern that miners have about the level of security of their assets

I'm not saying risk is not right, because i know that a risk take is liable to acquire a diversified wealth, cryptocurrency investment is by process and if you understand the process full well you will land by losing your capital every time, and i know one of things that can make some one to correct itself is through the mistake that happens through personal investment, but i assure you that any one who knows his way into cryptocurrency does not experience many lost in crypto, so it depends the kind of cryptocurrency investment you are into

0 it drops in value pretty much always. if there is nuclear war now I do hold some of you kikes responsible. you crash too much and you may have to be wiped off th earth

For me the word safe for cryptocurrency depends on how you protect your seed phrases, where did you choose to save or preserve your assets either it is in a hard wallet or in online wallet. The word safety of assets in cryptocurrency lies on the hand of the owner because at the end of the day the responsibility to keep it safe is in his hands unlike fiats which we can save it in the bank. Let's practice properly how to secure our assets in crypto because once it is stole ot's hard to retrieve.

If someone drove their car and crashed almost eeryday causing injuries all the time, they would have their license revoked and car impounded.  Bitcoin retarded kikes are looking at much stiffer penaltie for crashing everyday. War is oon and killing is the right thing to do to a reckless driver who doesnt stop crashing and hurting people.

I wouldn't say that crypto market is fully liberated from the political ideology or conviction. Many crypto exchanges are US based or operate there hence they will do everything what US government will tell them to do. As you mention Russia/ Ukraine situation, recently Coinbase exchange blocked all accounts related to Russian citizens. I'm not sure about exact number but I heard about 25k accounts. Crypto exchanges are also part of crypto market and to say that they are liberated from the political ideology or conviction is total BS. Crypto was meant to be liberated from the political ideology or conviction but in fact it's difficult to find place where you can be sure that your account and funds won't be blocked. Unless you store your crypto in cold wallets.

The current level of crypto security is very worrying where many fraudulent projects are scattered, where the fomo of one coin can also trigger fraud between users.
I think it's different from bitcoin, which is single in nature and doesn't have children on its network, it's different from ETH and BSC which use their network a lot to invest,
Therefore, before investing more in researching the coin/token,

I agree that bitcoin and ethereum is the most safe cryptocurrency to invest. Cryptocurrency is composed of different coin with different function and use case so the safetiness depends on the coins that you choose, so we need to do research before investing before deciding what coin we wanted to buy because in crypto there is also a risk scam project and scam coins are still the problem a big problem in crypto and we need to take care to avoid losses.

Security of bitcoin itself is not a questionable thing, it is impossible to crack into it and many people have tried. Remember that satoshis wallet has 1 million bitcoins and its out there and if it was even possible to crack into that and get it, then people would have done that without a doubt. The reality is that, if you are getting scammed then it is because of you, something you have done.

After the security part is over, we have the price action which means that if you invest into bitcoin and get something you are not content with then it is a bit of a problem based on your belief, I am invested and I am feeling quite safe about it, but if you do not then maybe you should consider another investment.

When it comes to dealing with money, I don’t think it could ever be safe. However, if you have a clear mind and are certain you won’t get lost in translation, then sure, it can be safe, as long as you take measures like secure your wallet and do not pass the password to multiple people.

I don't blame those that are yet to support the existence of bitcoin, such people are the types that exhibit uncertainties, fear and doubt, they are people whole are not willing or ready to take risk but wanted to succeed in life, they'd better watch things happening than for them involved in the happenings.


This is an aspect whereby everyone have different thoughts and views about what bitcoin is, some called it ponzi scheme, some gambling while other sees it as a hideout avenue for scamming and money laundering, but the truth is that bitcoin is a digital decentralized currency.


None, no one has come out to profess any loophole in bitcoin, not even a single one, they lack every jurisdiction to claim the allegations moreover on who will they lay it? on a decentralized entity? its not possible and that's to the fact the i most respect about Satoshi Nakamoto, decentralization and anonymity.

I also assumed about some government that collect tax on bitcoin activities and yet they never accept it as a legal tender or recognized its standard and role in the current economy trend to be fast growing, i asked myself are they afraid or just in doubts about adopting bitcoin, the worse scenario is that politicians uses bitcoin to save up their assets because it is knowingly to them that fiat banks could raise an alarm to the AML and other government agencies for a suspicious transaction which can easily deprive them of their privacy.

Of course, every investment has its own risks, such as investing in the world of cryptocurrency, of course, there will also be loopholes to break into or we lose assets in bitcoin if we are not careful in carrying out intensive supervision at all times, for example, bitcoin security against cross-sectional assets is also closely monitored. by the bitcoin itself but if there is a scam then we also can't do much about the assets we have, but this is very rare in the world of Cryptocurrency

here I only mention Bitcoin not altcoins...

100% investment in Bitcoin is very safe, as long as you save your BTC in hardware wallet, keep your private key in the safest place and don't tell anyone else. Altcoins that have emerged so far are only trying to take a small part of the market that Bitcoin dominates. make Bitcoin your main investment and don't hesitate to invest in Bitcoin.

Here's a look at some of the cryptocurrencies and bitcoins. Whenever you move into a cryptocurrency, it will display all the currencies, including shit coins.It is better for you to invest in Bitcoin instead of investing in cryptocurrency.I think investing in cryptocurrency is very save. If not, keep saving or stacking with USDT.Even so, owning one is still beyond the reach of the average person.If we all invest in something better than shit coins, then of course people will have faith in cryptocurrency.And the crypto world will go a long way.

bitcoin is the safest place to invest among other coins even with high fluctuations, but later it can provide better returns. at least with bitcoin it will be more profitable than saving in a bank, even though the price of bitcoin does not increase every year, but if we are patient the value will exceed the first time we bought it, therefore we must know its characteristics. while saving in the bank will not increase the amount of our money, sometimes it even decreases when the interest we get is not worth the administrative costs. especially when compared to the inflation rate, of course not comparable, it's just that the value we save remains the same.

I don't believe the answer to this question is as simple as choosing between white and black. Between these, as with any asset class, there will be ups and downs. It is entirely dependent on your decision-making after researching the project/company. In the same way that the stock market has both good and bad companies, you should do extensive research before investing in any cryptocurrency. By stating that you do not consider crypto currency to be currency, but rather stock in a company. However, everyone can agree that blockchain will change the world in the same way that the internet and other technologies have in the past, and crypotocurrency is simply a byproduct of the blockchain technology.

I think how safe it is to invest in crypto depends on you. You have to start with yourself, keep it in your heart if crypto is really safe. If it has been passed a little bit your burden will lessen. In addition, don't ever say or leak your Bitcoin code to other people, even the closest people. No one will know what it will be like in the future, therefore it's a good idea to store the code properly and safely.

Due to the current legality issues and lack of crypto laws that will help you protect your investment from hackers, loss of passwords, loss of device, malware or ransom attacks, and cyber frauds which may result in permanently losing your money, it is not the right time to invest in cryptocurrency, especially for investors who are looking for a safe and secured means of investment.

Investing certainly has risks, the level of risk that we get depends on how we study and analyze market conditions properly. As of now I can still say that cryptocurrencies are still safe to invest in, but not all projects are there. When it comes to bitcoin, this is not a big risk. You have to be patient and have good skills. Some people have a weakness because they can't invest at the right time, sometimes they are often reckless and influenced by the framing of negative issues on social media.

Investing in cryptocurrency never confuses me. I have invested all my money in cryptocurrency without leaving the bank.I have now invested in buying some more coins including BNB Bitcoin Ethereum. And USDT fixed deposit.I have seen that the fixed deposit that USDT has made comes from a much better profit from the bank. For this, I bought USDT directly without leaving any money in the bank and kept it in savings.

I do agree that bitcoin is safer than a bank and it is also quite good that you could make more money this way as well. This means that government can't reach to your funds neither, and you could make more money than they are comfortable with as well. Not only you will profit, but they can't do anything about it neither, like if they run the nation to ground, your money will be in bitcoin, and you will be doing fine.

Imagine people who owned bitcoin before Venezuela became like this, I am pretty sure that they are doing fine. It means that bitcoin is both safe because it gives you better returns, but also safe from governmental overreach.

It is important to understand both the security and the risk when it comes to cryptocurrency investment. Like everything has two sides, and it has a thin line. Similarly, if you do not take proper precautions when investing in cryptocurrency, you may lose your investment.

Since cryptocurrency is based on decentralized technology, it does not have customer support or back-office support. This makes it dangerous to invest in cryptocurrency without full knowledge.

So always do your own research before investing in cryptocurrency. Get proper knowledge, even never invest that much amount, which you cannot afford to lose.

No investment is safe, there will always be the risk of losing, the investment that has the least risk for me due to history and in terms of the movements of its cryptocurrency chart is and always will be BTC, because BTC may go down to a value anyone but I know his last ATH was in the $70k range and I know that at any moment the next ath will be much further from $70k based on what we can expect and many are hoping is that it will hit at least $100k but I think that if it reaches $100k it will continue to grow much more, it may reach $150k, and I'm not saying it, many experts say it.

Cryptocurrencies are definitely here to stay. A lot of people have started making cash from them. The returns are just much higher than anything else. However, there are certain risks associated with them too. You should have proper knowledge about them before doing any transaction.  You should also track the market closely and regularly. Since there are no regulations, there are a lot of scams and frauds in the market.

do you know how many people who turn to billionaire because of bitcoin investment bitcoin is already making people rich because it appreciate and that is what is making people to be investing in bitcoin to be expanding more. Bitcoin investment is not hard because you can do buying and selling, buy at low price and sell in high price but not for trading because is trading that requires big things to learn

This is the reason why people have Bitcoin as the biggest investment in their portfolio if they know what they are doing. I have seen plenty of newbies who got into crypto for the first time ever and then invested all of their money into silly shit memecoins and lost it all. Why did they do that?

Because, there were a few people who invested 2% of their money into these shitcoins and suddenly it got hyped and had a fake breakout which made them rich, but that breakout caused a huge dip to the price eventually when the follower newbies joined and they lost a lot of money. This is simply it, anyone who knows bitcoin would know that it is the most trustworthy one.

You have to get two things here, talking about cryptocurrency and Bitcoin.
Directly referring to cryptocurrency which we known to be (Altcoin) and bitcoin has its own values so if i may say you have to note specific cryptocurrency you are investing your resources and most cryptocurrencies likely to be over hyped leading to pump and dump. But bitcoin remains and will not fall drastically unlike other cryptocurrencies out there basically people are being carried by news.

From my point of view, the only safe way to invest in cryptocurrency is to invest in an altcoin that is created by your trusted friend or a company. Invest in a project only if you know that its owner has positive reputation and have enough funds to cover losses. In other words, invest into something that you can get something back in case of bankrupt. Every other investment is a gambler or random.

Just never invest in shitcoin and that will save your asses mate, because there are so many coins to choose from but there are only little that has secure and sure to stay long.

the best option? Invest in Bitcoin and that's all, because in the years to come? for sure you will taste the benefits of your hardship in investing.

Cryptocurrencies are one way or another a promising direction for investment. Another thing is that choosing the right asset for this can be difficult, and here the same lottery begins as with any other assets for investment.

I believe investing in bitcoin is as safe as investing in any major hedge funds. The volatility of bitcoin gives a kick and it is pretty unpredictable where it will go as this market is yet to reach its full maturity. Yes it is quite safe as, it has achieved a size too big to ignore, and we are seeing its increasing day by day.

Although bitcoin does not have an official company, bitcoin is very much loved by almost all people, even every year there is always a significant increase, even bitcoin has been operating for more than 12 years, no one has ever been deceived by bitcoin investment, so until now I are still comfortable investing in bitcoin.

those who feel cheated by bitcoin investments are those who are less knowledgeable about cryptocurrencies, and are usually beginners who want a quick return with a big profit, until they finally buy at the top and the price undergoes a correction that no one knows when it will end. thus they say that bitcoin investment is a scam. this happened a lot in 2018. but for those who already understand bitcoin it will be fine to see the price reaction, because they believe that bitcoin will be more popular and increase its price later

TBH, nothing in this world is totally safe and yes, investment in Bitcoin appears to be safe but what will make it safe is determined by the investors knowledge.
A lot of investors have made losses just by having the mentality of Bitcoin being a safe investment in terms of hedge funds while they lack the proper knowledge.

The volatility which is the great kick in cryptocurrency investment is also the reason why it generates great benefits and not knowing when the market will reach full maturity is the reason why I think we should not consider crypto or Bitcoin investment to be totally safe.

Crypto investment is one of the investment instruments that was successfully born because of the sophistication of technology that exists today. The type of investment that offers high returns.
as part of technology, cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin actually have a very high level of security.As a piece of technology, bitcoin is very secure, there has never been a story where bitcoin was hacked
What becomes vulnerable to being hacked is the tool or platform of the exchange or buying and selling of bitcoins. Therefore, education in choosing a company or trading platform for cryptocurrency is important

Well, I will say that investing in Crypto currency is so risky, but it also have potencially extremely profitable. investing in Crypto is risky because the money that is put in Bitcoin or any cryptocurrency is not save, but it has high level of security. And also investing in Bitcoin appear to be save and very secure. But incase of making it save you have to determine the knowledge of the investor, because most of the investors hmake losses just by have the mentality of Bitcoin been safe

For you and all the new Traders, investing in crypto is very risky.Becasue crypto has both scam and legit projects.You have to find out which one is good and which one might be scam.You have to be an experienced crypto investor.

Yes investing in cryptocurrencies is safe.
while investing in cryptocurrencies, prudent investment practice would recommend a diversified portfolio so that a sudden drop in any one cryptocurrency does not wipe out the entire invested amount.

All types of investments including cryptocurrencies have the same opportunities, namely up and down significantly, and all investors know that cryptocurrencies are like a roller coaster, the opportunity to rise in tens of percent is common in a day so if we hope for big profits then we must dare to take big risks. also big.

Until now, investing in crypto is still very safe. crypto is a common word, if you invest in it by choosing a trusted coin, you don't have to doubt your money. You only do an analysis before investing so you don't lose when a dump occurs. crypto is not safe, if you invest in a new project, a lot of fraudulent projects happen. lots of coins left by their owners. to our detriment. so if investing, always be careful in choosing coins.

All existing investments of course have risks as well as cryptocurrencies, crypto sometimes has a large return but can also be very risky too if we do not understand and not choose the right investment in crypto, before investing in crypto we should be aware of all the possibilities that will happen , and that's why many experts recommend using cold money if you really intend to try investing.

I think investing in cryptocurrencies is a lot safer. When I invest in cryptocurrency, I invest in Bitcoin, BNB and Ethereum.Besides, I keep stacking on savings account using USDT. From here they give me a profit every day.That's why I like investing in cryptocurrency You can also invest in cryptocurrency this way if you want. If Bitcoin and Etherium seem to be a lot of risk, then you should use USDT and keep stacking on the savings account.

That is a very very very risky way to invest. I mean your friend should not be able to build something that 100+ people build together, it would be very rare to see something like that. I am sure there must be friends of those people in the world, but how many? It must be a low number.

It means that if I wait for my friends to build a project then I will be screwed. Not that it hadn't happened, I have telegram "friends" and they have built 3 projects, I am so capable of building one right now that with like 100k I could build one o the top projects that gets super hyped all because I know the "tricks" o it, but all of them fail in the end.

How safe is it to invest in anything??
In my opinion, there's always a chance of getting zero return on investment and possibly losing your capital.
Investing is a risk and profits are the reward if successful

High volatility provides great opportunities compared to stable assets, but the risks are also much greater. You can talk about risks if you are a trader, and to a greater extent a short-term trader or a scalper. Because for hodlers it does not matter, they buy and patiently wait for the right price. Holding will always outperform trading, of course there are exceptions, but they are too few.

Bitcoin is foundation of crypto currency, it is safest. Ethereum is also a safe house, there are a few others, which can be considered as safe. If you invest in these , probably there is no risk But there is another market of shill coins, where you kind of gamble. These coins are very hard to predict and invest there only when you have researched well, else you can loose all you invest

to invest in the crypto world for beginners you have to study it first on the website, because crypto is different from company shares which is clear by the existence of the company.
a little bit you choose a token or coin your money will be lost if the crypto is a scam, I suggest investing in bnb it is still very possible to profit in the future

When it comes to an investment, i think everything is not totally safe even if you invest in decentralized coins like bitcoin, and in decentralized exchanges. Everything comes with risk, and as long there are always losses waiting every time we invest, investing in cryptocurrency will never be safe. However, investing in bitcoin through buying at a low price and selling at its high price, has always been safer and most likely create guaranteed profits than investing in altcoins that are mostly associated with scams.

Its never been safe no matter how good looking it might be or how huge potential it might have on near future because we know that theres always a associated risk when it comes to these dealings.You cant just put up

money into something without having the risk of losing it but of course you would need to risk for you to earn therefore you dont really have some choice honestly.

If you do have some money to spare or willing to lose then investing in crypto is a good idea but dont anticipate nor even expect that you would really be getting profits in the future.

Investing in cryptocurrency is always risky. Your money is never safe here. Anything can happen at any time. However, if you invest in Bitcoin, the risk will be relatively low.

OP is talking about investing not gambling mate.
There is never any chance of getting 0 return when you invest on something.
Either you lose some or gain some profit.
Unlike gambling it doesn’t makes your balance zero in one bet.

Regarding safety, if Bitcoins are legal in OP’s country , then you must invest in cryptos.
Just remember unlike other investments, it the interest rate is high then the risk of the investment is also high.
Rest everyone is well matured to invest in the proper place.

Well, people just did it already. They'll already be spreading negative views about cryptocurrency
 1. scam
 2. fraud
 3. use in illegal activities

I'd look in the opposite view of the market, I'd ignore listening to them. Because the only thing I believe about "security investment" just only happens if we invested the right coins, the right wallet where to store our assets, the right system we use upon holding. That all lies on us eventually...

It not easy investment. Before investing you about the all coins. So before investing check the marketplace price and follow the marketplace price day by day then know about the coins price and then invest. It any time changes and scam some people. So learn everything then invest it. Choose the best coins for the investment.

According to us,investing in cryptocurrency is completely safe keeping one thing in mind that crypto must be legal in that nation where you are living and having  your economy.Investing in crypto can give you good results after some time after all crypto is the future currency of the world.

Well Investing is the battle against volatility which goes against your direction. One of the main drivers against cryptos is their legal status. Slowly but surely they will be suppressed more and more.
Luckily law and order is only relevant as long it is enforceable and there are already numerous solutions out there which dissolve this enforce-ability especially for cryptos.
Sure the price of cryptos will go down with every kind of suppression but on the other hand other solutions will come up to ensure the existence of cryptos as well.

When talking about investment, what my mind shows me is Bitcoin, Now if I want to diversify safely, it is the technique that I learned after all the boom happened and it is an ilpogia technique, when you have full confirmation that BTC will give its trend bullish, where the altcoin season is activated is when you should expect BTC to have a small correction, to buy altcoins at that time, because when the BTC correction occurs, the altcoins fall even more in price, and at that moment you should buy because when btc goes up again those altcoins will give at least 2x, 3x, 4x and if you are very lucky up to 10x... I think that is the safest way to invest in another currency that is not BTC, because BTC will continue his way to heaven.

If by safe you mean that to avoid rug pull projects then I will say you should stick to bitcoin and try some other top 10-20 coins. Another thing is that you should ensure you have your coins in your personal wallet. Any coin you buy let it be in your wallets and not on exchange. Lastly ensure you do your research yourself.

No, even if they are legal in a country but still the word safe is not very suitable for bitcoin, they are not safe because if you read this whole thread then you will know the answer. here a lot of Scam, Fraud or even other frauds that can cause you to lose the assets you have.
other than that, people's habits are relatively real, some are trading, some are investing for a longer term. for profit here we cannot guess whether it will be profitable or not in a certain period of time because we are talking about volatility. this is far from safe but being in bitcoin is something that is quite worth it to do

There are many wallets and websites where your fund will be safe but after investing in Cryptocurrency then you need to do some spare from scammers. And you have to follow terms and conditions of your wallet. Which make your wallet secured.

Crypto has a safe and a risky side and you'll be the one to choose what side you are. If you wanted a big profit then you need to take the risk the more risky the more profit you can possibly get, but if you wanted to less the risk i think ethereum and bitcoin is the safer choice because this two coins is proven and tested.

^ No, they are safe haven those coins that are on the top of the CMC.
Because they already tested that you will have a profit when there is a bull market and we will experience that when BTC has a massive hike increase of the price. All you have to do is set a profit, when you will see that your profit was there, then cut it off and reinvest again your profit once BTC has a correction of the price. Top 5 altcoins also have the potential to gain profit and avoid investing in meme coins which only increase the price when there is hype. People will always fall into their trap because they are FOMOed with the hype.

In many cases, people invest huge amounts of money in crypto without understanding it or the potential risks that come with it. And without realizing they might lose their entire capital. So, as an investment, it is a risk, but it is only good as long as you can handle the risk and as long as you know what you are doing.

Other than stablecoins, One thing is for sure about all other cryptocurrencies including bitcoin is that they are highly volatile if you are considering to invest in them as price is constantly fluctuating and in terms of value security, well non guaranteed which is why professional financial advice from an accountant , investment manager etc is needed. Otherwise cryptos are highly rewarding provided you take the risk.

You are right on this one on which whenever you do step your foot into this market then you should really be prepared on the risk involved with it.YOu cant just make out investment if its risk-free because

this isnt how the reality works.You do need to sustain and be wise on making with your investment decision or else you would really be ending up on losing money
rather than on earning.So SAFE isnt a right word or even on traditional investments as well where risk is just on default.

Can I ask the question is How safe it is to invest in Fiat money ? You may see that paper money is more centralized and safe but you will never look at things like inflation and infinite printing of the paper money. I would conclude that it is unsafe to keep the money in paper notes.

It's best to invest in bitcoin due to its limited supply, no inflation and above all it's a truly decentralized currency.

People invest into stocks, bonds, properties, real estate based on the trust that it'll grow with time. With cryptocurrency the same happens in a much larger scale compared to the traditional forms of investments. Just because it is highly volatile, often there arises the question how safe is to invest in cryptocurrency.

When you invest into cryptocurrency, only thing need to be considered with caution is the selection of coins as well as the wallet to keep the cryptocurrencies in a highly secure manner.

I don't know from which side and side we look at in the investment world, both traditional and cryptocurrency, because basically everything has clear security in terms of ownership but in terms of value, price, and profit everything can't be confirmed because it depends on the attitude and method. we choose....
it's just that cryptocurrencies offer more benefits and security because we fully have the power full rights without any third parties

You should say Bitcoin is a digital Virtual currency which can be used for digital transection and we can make money by Bitcoin if we trade, hold or do doing crypto promotions.
Its not safe for new crypto investors to invest in Bitcoin.

If we only read the title of this thread, we can just say
"of course, it is not 100% safe to invest in cryptocurrency, high gain, and high risks.
We can see how risky in invest in cryptocurrency. But, why do many people still invest in cryptocurrency? Because there are still many changes that can make someone gain more than the loss, because we know and understand that investing in crypto is not gambling, so that we must know about the basics of investment, trading, crypto, and also of course the knowledge about the cryptocurrency itself and the money management for invest

Investing in cryptocurrency is very safe as long as the key you hold is not known by others if you store the key in an unsafe place like you store the key on an android that is connected to the internet then there is a possibility that the key can be hacked by other people and your assets will be stolen by someone else.

You can't make a centralised view of the different beliefs and critiques beacuse bitcoin is decentralized.  :) I mean everybody can freely share his/her opinion and this opinion will have the equal weight, but the total view will be unstable.

I understand and if it is necessary to clarify what you are saying, whenever it is talked about investing, the person has to be clear that they have to put their money in a certain asset, let's say 1BTC, in order to have bought it cheap so that in the long term or the time that is necessary to obtain a good benefit.

When it comes to cryptocurrencies in general I do not recommend any, only the only one I recommend is Bitcoin, because it is the currency that has its own life and that I know will never fail, this is something that everyone should keep in mind to be able to operate and establish a point of balance.

In the Stock Market, the big investors like WEarren Buffet, do their corresponding research for the investment, because they know that in 8-10 years they will be richer, instead with BTC they no longer have to do that research because the safe action is BTC , with other cryptocurrencies it can be done, but the risk factor is very high.

In my opinion, everything will depend on what your approach really is, if what you say is how safe it is to invest in any cryptocurrency or in Bitcoin. Of course, there are some cryptocurrencies that I would classify as "safe investments". But that is more than anything it would be those that are relatively stable, bone that are supported by something.

But if you say Bitcoin I think it would be safe to invest if what you want is money but not in the short term, of course in terms of study it is the most reliable thing to buy, and if you have a little knowledge of trading, you will know that it is the best option.

I think you have misunderstood the word SAFE that the OP meant, from what I understand the OP write , he did not discuss how safe our investments are from theft or hacking, but I think the OP is trying to compare how safe bitcoin investments are than other types of investments such as property or gold, so what the OP discussed I think has nothing to do with wallet security or whatever, apart from investment security in providing returns or profits that we can get in every condition such as conflict, pandemic or in the event of a monetary crisis :).

volatility is common in crypto market. "Safe" word describes those cryptocurrency that has potentiality for long term (they dumped temporary but increase in long period). Bitcoin, eth are for example. But shitcoins are also crypto-currencies where you need to face full of risk. They doesn’t has any Safety zone. It means you can lost your fund even whole fund if investing with them.

It is serve to every one to invest in with cryptocurrency weather you are a new comer or beginner cryptocurrency investment don't know any person that started newly the opportunity of getting double portion of what you invested does not know who you are, if bitcoin is not safe for people invest plenty wont have turn to cryptocurrency life

Investing in Bitcoin is safe but if someone invest in newly launched coins then there's a big chance that you invested in a shitcoin.So to be a safe crypto investor I would recommend to know about the trading strategy. And you must follow some rules to be a safe crypto investor like you should never invest on shitcoins, need to research more about crypto projects.

Investing in cryptocurrencies is definitely risky. We have to invest knowing that it is risky. However, it is possible to avoid some of the risks by keeping the market informed from regular active. Moreover, you have to invest by choosing a good project.

In terms of knowledge, those long-term assets are projects that can be hold while the market continues to dump down. There's no safe zone as you as investor is the one who knows how to handle pressures. With this kind of volatility, you needed to have a strong foundation that will allow you to be compensated when the market start to pump back.

Your decision making is very crucial when you are aiming for your investment to be safe. Every action you take will reflect back
to your hold projects.

Answering this question directly, they are safe in this case if we talk about Blockchain technology (it stores, encrypts and protects all the information related to them without mentioning that they are decentralized). But when we talk about insurance to invest as such, it is not entirely safe, we must bear in mind that they are currencies that do not have a fixed price, so their value can go up or down, but when talking about cryptocurrencies such as BTC, ETH and others because it is a little safer (there are equal risks but less than others) due to the great manipulation that these have in the market, they are volatile and if today it is down, investors buy and obtain benefits in the long term when is in a bullish state… so yes, it is safe to invest in cryptocurrencies, as long as you are aware of the subject and take into account the risk involved.

Safer than everything you know about Investment , specially if you are going to invest in Bitcoin alone because this is the most secure? most reliable? and most profitable at all time.
so Look at it? invest at it? and never hesitate as long as you can keep holding the coin and not just looking for easy money.

Investing in crypto assets is risky but also potentially extremely profitable. Cryptocurrency is a good investment if you want to gain direct exposure to the demand for digital currency. A safer but potentially less lucrative alternative is buying the stocks of companies with exposure to cryptocurrency.

If you are interested in NFT's Project then You can check our new NFT Project Krazy Kong NFT.Kong is one of those modern apes who have been affected by habitat loss due to human conquest and colonization, and some of his interactions with humans have been violent in the past, as they treated him like a monster. This NFT collection of Kong's portraits provides a window into his deep immersion, explorations and experimentations of life and finding meaning in modern human society.

You are correct and can say that because it is exactly what it has turned to now. Lottery is in most cases better because we do not have to pay to be in lottery apart from buying a product or service and get raffle tickets for them without seriously hoping to win. But when we buy cryptocurrencies all our attention is on it to do well and make money from it. This is hard to guess right these days as alot are now managed by scammers.

Cryptocurrency investment also has some risks, currently most governments in the country do not have the same protections for cryptocurrencies as for real money in bank accounts.  However, if you want to succeed in changing your life, you have to take risks, because now I see bitcoin investing as having a high chance to be rich in the future.

The risk you're talking about are scams and hacks but indeed that is another risk here when it comes to investing in cryptocurrency but other than that, the main risk that everyone should worry about are from the effects of volatility. In some countries their governments don't regulate cryptos but it doesn't mean a bad thing but in fact people like this because cryptos are supposed to be independent and free from government control.

It's only the responsibility of the person that invest in cryptos and they should accept it whatever happens to their money but if they get lucky and pass all the hazards of crypto, they can become really profitable.

If it is about securing the future, then without doubt it is the safest way to enjoy the future. What we save today will surely help us in the future. If you go through any of the article, for what purpose cryptocurrencies were preferred by people will give the answer. To overcome the inflation happening with their traditional currencies the best choice is cryptocurrencies. Earlier people used to have lots of criticism, but now things are different with the institutional investors participation.

I can agree that investing in crypto is the way to help our financial strength in the future. But I don't think it is the safest way, investing in crypto has a high risk, no one knows what to happen to crypto investment in the future. That's why we don't invest all our money in crypto, just use the money that we can afford to lose. Put all money in crypto investment isn't the right way to secure our future.

Indeed.
Ever since crypto investment can't be considered a safe haven. That is why it has always been said that "Invest only the amount that you can afford to loss". This clearly means that there is no guaranteed assurance upon investing crypto as anytime, you will your money as it was hacked or you emotionally sell them at a cheap price.

However, if you can afford to face the risk and manage to hold your funds long-term surely you make a huge profit from it, especially if you are investing in Bitcoin as it this been proven it was growing.

The safety of your money is in your hands. You can’t blame anyone for your losses if you failed at analysing the market correctly and making a profitable trading decision. Study well to stay safe.

You don't think that the government protects your money in the bank, they use your money to invest in other places.  only in bitcoin you become "your own bank", as long as you hold your password and private key wallet (a trusted hardware wallet or software Bitcoin wallet) then no one in the world, including the government, can use or take it.  investing in cryptocurrencies is the safest in the world.

Any exchange would have a risk warning like these : 'Cryptocurrency trading is subject to high market risk. Please make your trades cautiously.' that's pretty much a warning to all of us who decided to get in the crypto space , the trade itself are a high risk one , so do with the investment whether it's long term or short term , meaning that you could lose a lot but could earn huge amount of money as well.

easy to understand , but first thing first you better watch and learn by experience it for a couple years.

all of aspects of investment are risky it is matter how do you deal with it and also lessen it . Cryptocurrency has a high risk because of its volatility and depending on what coin you are investing on. You should accept the fact that is risky and find more way to lessen it by reading their whitepaper and do research since knowledge is power in investments and without risk you cant gain any profit

With the same belief over traditional investment one can prefer Crypto investment. Only the security phrase need to be kept safe and automatically the investment turns to be more secure. People always have some panic in the mind hearing some stories connected to cryptocurrency hacks and thefts. This is common, and we should have the learning not to reveal the passphrase of the wallet to other people. People who doesn't have much knowledge about cryptocurrencies will say it is the money out of the air, but never realise how inflation is attacking the traditional fiat.

Everyone of us can gain more money by trading and investing in cryptocurrency, but not all crypto can give us a lambo. People nowadays thinks that when they invest in crypto whether it is in bitcoin or in altcoin they thinks it will give them money instantly which is not. Guys, the security of your assets and your investments are depending on how you are doing if you are easily to be deceive by high earning website or those new project that has nothing to offer by being hype by many.

For the price issue, cryptocurrencies are very volatile because some can go bankrupt, some can scam and sometimes one of them can increase in value and generate profits for investors.
but in terms of security investing in cryptocurrency is very safe but it all depends on how safe you are securing it.
and for bitcoin limited, bitcoin is probably one of the safest investments and also profitable because bitcoin is gaining adoption from big names, institutions and more and more people and countries are involved in it and it continues to grow which I think will continue.
and bitcoin has the potential to be sound money in the future and act like a safe haven at a time when central banks are printing currencies like never before.

Cryptocurrency investment is a function of price fluctuation, because of high volatility in the market, buying bitcoin everyone was expecting the price to reach 100k during the bull run, but, has drop to 36k series in price which is divided into two part in price, In other words is good to buy more. Therefore for a safe part without taken risk of profits investment, is to buy stable coins and hold, no risk involved. 

All investments are at risk, including crypto. This instability is what we often use to make a profit. So without price fluctuations, investments will not make a profit. But based on articles I have read there has been an increase in volume and circulation of money in crypto. But from this development there is also an increase in cases that harm crypto actors and this happens a lot to newcomers. It comes from the nature of crypto whereas from the security side the actual theft as long as no one knows with the private key you all can be fine.

Because mostly new people in crypto nowadays expects that they will earn huge money in crypto, most of them didn't realize that not all investment and trading will give them a positive result. Volatility is not in their dictionary they should know this too as well, I have seen so many people in social media as well still believe in hyip program and still believe in suspicious giveaways they will connect their wallet and then in a small span of time they will surely lost their money.

Of course, no investment that has no risk. It is impossible if we want to have investment without any risk, no investment that guarantees success. Crypto investment has a high risk, but it offers the opportunity to gain bigger profits than other kinds of investment. The volatility in crypto is the reason why we can have the opportunity to gain bigger profits, with the volatility we can sell our coins at a much higher price. If crypto prices are stable (no fluctuation, no volatility), there is no hope to gain significant profits.

The price of bitcoins fails to go up because of Ukraine and Russia war because by now bitcoin for done reach 70k and 100k no body think that Bitcoin will not reach 100k as bull market but the problem for it not increase as we expected this season, if someone wants to buy bitcoins it is right time to buy because after this falling the next thing is to experience high market

Hacking in cryptocurrencies is indeed a problem that we often hear, it is used by some people to scare some other people so that they don't invest in this cryptocurrency. In fact, if we examine the cause, it is the ignorance of the victims who provide their security to access their personal wallets. This needs to be straightened out so that there are no misunderstandings that lead to less demand for investors, especially for beginners.

Since and before i have known that bitcoin have the chance of becoming or making some one really Rich if some one run investment with it, the chance of cryptocurrency becoming rich is near but the problem is can we take the risk that is involve for investment because one thing which is the culture of cryptocurrency investment is weather you lose or you profit

I, somewhat agree that cryptocurrency will help our lives in the future. But, it will depend if you have invested in the right crypto and if it's good for a long-term investment. And, I think that we also need to secure our assets and invest in the right hardware wallet since as we know that software wallet can be hacked anytime if you just mistakenly downloaded an app that has spyware or virus on it.

Also, It's really safe to invest in crypto if you have bought on the right exchange that has insurance funds.

everyone who knows crypto already knows what risk and opportunity are and we here are certainly not stupid people who joined because of a hype/fomo that happened.
so with a high risk of course it will provide a very large opportunity optimistic be careful and learn where we will invest and store it is the basis of cryptocurrency opportunities

Crypto are a new market compared to stocks or gold and investing in cryptocurrencies is not protected by law, so the risk is very high. Crypto is currently considered a high-risk, high-reward form of investment with of the scams surrounding it, so invest with knowledge and don't put all your money into it with the desire to change life quickly. It can help you but it can also destroy you, so invest wisely.

We are just a decade-old type of market which we could really say that this is something new compared into those traditional investments/markets that do exist today.Any investment does involved risk

even into those traditional investment that we do know.Although the risk involved on crypto is much more higher because of its unpredictability and volatility aspects and this is why its really important for someone

to consider about the level of risk and act accordingly on what you could afford to do so in terms or risk taking.

Every market comes with its own risks but considerably, it is a lot safer if done right.

Moreover, joining without basic knowledge, it makes no sense at all in my opinion. Here, those who enter the world of cryptocurrency certainly have basic knowledge about cryptocurrencies, even though that knowledge is limited. And that's not a problem because it can be learned over time. Nothing is not without risk in the investment world, everything must have risk. And if we are not careful, we will definitely suffer losses.

High risk high return. People can become rich just because of crypto, but can be very poor because of crypto too.
Some people who experience a lot of losses may not be willing to take all the risks and don't know about the basic knowledge that really needs to be learned. Investments that are not protected by law and large risks are certainly a dangerous place, but behind that crypto provides sweet benefits for those who have studied cryptocurrency knowledge.
Use money that you won't need in the future, and don't put eggs in one basket. and lastly do good management, it will be very helpful.

Learning and gaining experience is not always easy, especially not easy when you lose money, and this is inevitable in the learning process. Many beginners come to the world of cryptocurrencies without fundamental knowledge, they are attracted by the opportunity to get quick and easy money, but as we know, everything is not so simple here. And before the result is achieved, a person must obtain the necessary knowledge, this is applicable to any profession.

...Or can be mentally destroyed because of crypto. Crypto is not your quick rich scheme and people still don't get that even with the volatility of the price. Some even make a bad decision such as quitting their job for crypto trading full time or even loaning loads of cash just to invest it all in crypto.
People are really desperate, eh?

right, it's not that easy to save money in bitcoin, especially for beginners who are only covered by the expectation of doubling money, many times they fall into disappointment because they don't have enough knowledge and experience. many of the novice investors were intrigued by the euphoria that ensued, so it seemed that they were just following the trend of buying bitcoins. Hopefully in the future we will be better at dealing with the situation

The safetiness of cryptocurrency is depend on how you handle every situation or in every coin that you wanted to have and hold. Sometimes many new investors invest in meme coin because of its very low price you can buy thousands of token for just one dollar but the problem thier is that meme coin is a very risky type of investment. But of you wanted to invest with low risk you can buy trusted coin like btc, bnb ,eth.ada,dot,ftm,etc.,you can hold trusted coin for a long time and collect profit everytime when market is in bullish situation.

Cryptocurrencies means what i understand is, bitcoin & altcoins. Bitcoin is decentralised currency, hard to manipulate like others altcoin. Controversies are still there but investing with bitcoin, it always prove how safe it is in long period. But altcoins are most of centralized, easily manipulated by team and risky to invest than bitcoin. But before investing, you should know crypto market is volatile,  it can fluctuating by their price in short time. Nothing is 100% safe but even if you want to consider here anything as safe then bitcoin is safest one

Yeah, a lot of my friends quit their jobs to do trading. Most of them are really earning profit on a monthly basis, but sometimes they lose, but this is better, as they say, than those 8am to 5pm on their cycle. When they trade, they only allocate a few hours to it and it is really fun to read news and learn things. They have more time for themselves and their families. But still, this is a risky thing to do, but they took the risk. As for myself, I am scared to go full time trading, but if I am ready sooner, I will try

I don't understand that , Do you mean cryptocurrency means only Bitcoin? Whatever it is, investing in cryptocurrency is safe or risky, it totally depends on you. Lets say you invested in Bitcoin then you don't have to worry about the risk. I will always say that the btc has a bright future and there is no chance that it's being scam. Yes there is a problem with it's volatility but at the end of the day it will bring good profit. We just have to be patient.

I have been following blockchain technology and bitcoin for many years and this distrust continues for many years. but there is a detail that this distrust started to increase at the same rate as the increase of shitcoins and exchanges hacked or the founders of some fake exchanges defrauding people. this is so normal. What is not normal is that this technology is only seen as a scam. It would be wrong to ignore the importance of these technologies and ignore real and solid teams and projects.

You know and understand how the market works before you invest your money, without better knowledge you can simply play with how the market moves, it's safe in the sense that you understand what you are doing, by knowing all the influence that affecting your investment, it will be easier to you to avoid those scam projects and stay with good ones that will generate profits.

More on your own assessment that will guide you to pick the right investment and the right way to protect your money while you are inside this industry.

I agree that owning cryptocurrency assets is one way to make us safer in the future, but let's see what assets we have. Is it a coin that does have a bright future or vice versa? Because even though I get profits here, but not infrequently I also feel a loss due to my lack of caution. And I agree it is better to invest only in the form of money that we are prepared to lose.

If you buy any coin other than stable coin. Then it will be Rix because the crypto market cannot be trusted. One night will make you rich. It will make you poor again overnight. I think investing in the crypto market is very risky.

I agree its risky business, even for stable coins. But there may be some merit in looking at the use case of coins as some measure of their value. Although I realised with my own portfolio, when the market takes a dive, no one seems to care which coins have utility and which do not...

Bitcoin is very risky to those who do not have clear idea of it. but one thing i can say that bitcoin price will rise until the complete 21 million coins are mined. No matter how many crashes come or any disaster occurs, i believe in bitcoin and so you should too.

Btw when i joined bitcoin community my first though about this was it is something like forex or stock markets, but when you see the massive volatility around this its much clear why newbies are scared of it, and i am from India and here they have imposed 30% tax rate on the profiles made by bitcoin. I guess that is fueling more to the fear.

Hello all

I dare say if you invest in a stablecoin like USDT then you will be safe but if you invest in a volatile alcoin then it is a big risk and you can get a big profit too, if the current market position it is better to invest with a big coin like eth coin and coin bnb because there is a possibility that these two coins will go up in the future.

You are asking how safe is it to invest in crypto currency? You should know that before you venture into anything you have to do a little research on it. Now to your question, it is advised that you invest what you know you can afford to loose and secondly you should as well know that crypto market is volatile. Currently it's bear market and as a smart Crypto investor, you should know what to do.

There's nothing wrong with investing in a stable coin or bitcoin or yet altcoin, yes, USDT is much safer as it's stable but sometimes that is not what the investors are looking for. Some investors are looking for a medium where they can invest their funds and reap competitive returns in the future and that's where the bitcoin and other leading altcoins come in as they're much more capable of giving what the investors need than the stable USDT. Also, the risk is always a factor when you invest and we can't avoid that, we all just need to have our own research on when is the right time to buy and what coins suit us the most.

there's no safety when it comes to cryptocurrency, due to iys volatility, but a good decentralized way of saving money in my opinion.

most people invest blindly without doing proper research before venturing into any sorta investments.i mean investing in general

Investing in Stablecoin is not an Investment because Investments are meant to bring you profits in the real sense even though there might be a loss situation in some cases. I believe that only people that have not taken their time to understand what crypto Investment is are the ones still asking this kind of question and there are only a few coins to invest in during market dips like this in the assurance of a possible bounce after the storm.

Investing in stablecoins, are you serious? Stablecoin is just a holding instrument when we cashout or we need to buy bitcoin or altcoin, holding stablecoin does not generate profit so holding it is not called investment. If you want to find profits, invest in bitcoin and altcoins, risks always exist in the investment environment so be cautious before investing.

This is the best time, I advise you to focus on bitcoin altcoins at this time are not safe and may crash if bitcoin continues to fall. However, the decision is still up to you.

I think investing in cryptocurrency is very easy.  Investing in cryptocurrency has never been so easy.  If you put money in your wallet or any other wallet, everyone will understand.  So investing is not easy, but investing in cryptocurrency is not easy.  The most important thing is that those who invest in cryptocurrency should have a good idea about cryptocurrency.  Understand cryptocurrency investing and how to invest safely.  And cryptocurrency means bitcoin and alt coins.  However, making money in Bitcoin will not be easy for newcomers to invest in cryptocurrency.  They need to know better about bitcoin investing.  By investing in this cryptocurrency a long time ago, everyone has gained confidence.  But investing in cryptocurrencies is the easiest way and the safest.

I do agree with you. Which or what kind of investment can we really consider as safe? There are a lot of things we can think of that can affect investment in Real Estate, Transportation, etc. Any financial form of investment is also as unsafe as we might consider Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies to be however, I think Bitcoin is still a good choice for investment because apart from its high-level volatility which could be the highest downside, that's also the highest Upside in terms of profits.

nothing is saved for investing with. I know that bitcoin is worth to invest but before we invest for cryptocurrency which is officially recognize as Bitcoin you have to know that bitcoin have negative way of surviving and positive way of surviving, the process is that you can make your Profit if you reach good before investment and your research will make you to know the coin you are suppose to buy and invest for, so that you won't regret of investing for bitcoins

i guess, no investment is safe but you can contain your losses. like for example, if you invest in real-estate, the value is usually increasing over time. so i think, real-estate is one of the few investments that you can hold as seemingly safe. but when you talk about crypto, this is highly volatile where a day in crypto market would change your life. i don't think anyone would consider investing in crypto as safe. we can tackle the situation of btc right now. if you have urgent needs of cash, you will be cashing out at a loss in the current market price, if you bought it above 20k.

I can say bitcoin is safe for investment but I can't give account of other cryptocurrencies. In general cryptocurrency can be safe to some set of persons who knows what cryptocurrency is, those who can have patience to hodl for long. I don't think cryptocurrency is safe to invest for those who want to make money so fast.

In the current scenario, investing in cryptocurrencies is very risky.I myself have invested a lot of money in cryptocurrency but I have huge losses there.But if you can save or stack on USDT, I think your investment will be much better.Otherwise bitcoin BNB ethereum these are very risky. They bought all these coins at a very high price and invested today but from there they lost a lot.I think cryptocurrency investing is very risky considering the current market situation.

With this bearish market situation, it is indeed very difficult to choose to invest in Altcoins because the level of risk is also very high, investing in stable coins is a good choice and I also confirm it, for example as you said, USDT is very safe for integrity. your assets.

Even if you are someone who really likes Altcoins, then you can also invest in Altcoins, including BNB and Ethereum which are already included in the big and very good Altcoin category, and it is very likely that in the future these two coins will rise at a higher number ( Prediction ), but this will happen if Bitcoin goes green and the Market will Bullrun again.

Agree. Those people who are knowledgeable about cryptocurrency can testify that it is safe to invest in crypto. Because cryptocurrency is not a scam. As long as you do your proper research about a coin, you can benefit from it. Most especially if you know how to do right technical analysis and not really relying on lucky guessing.

Those people who often call crypto a scam or not a safe thing to invest with are not really knowledgeable about it or perhaps experienced to be scammed using crypto as a bait. Often times, people use crypto trading to lure their victims. Promising hefty amount of money in exchange for some funds. Despite this being too good to be true, unfortunately, people still fall victim to it.

It's safe to invest in crypto as long as you know how to countercheck and do a background check of every coin, its founder, and history. As long as you are not gullible and knows how to do proper risk assessment and management, your money will be okay.

Real Estate, Gold is a safe type of investment, but to get a profit it takes a long time but remains stable.
Crypto is indeed very volatile because the volatility is large. Crypto can be a get-rich-quick scheme or a get-rich-quick scheme. Cryptocurrencies have a greater risk, so they need valid knowledge to be able to invest in crypto. The btc situation like now is a situation where some people panic because they bought bitcoins above $20k and some even bought at the ATH price yesterday. Panic will only cause anxiety to do a cutloss. No one can guarantee crypto, everyone is at their own risk.

It’s true that crypto trading comes with a risk. But anyone who has decided to trade cryptos probably knows that trading is prone to losses. Now that bitcoin is moving downward, traders are still prepared with their plans. One more thing, a stable crypto would never give you opportunities to make money as much as an unstable crypto would give you.

Because of the ups and downs of the market, you do not have complete control over your investment, in my opinion, thus it is not 50% safe. Your investment's return is based on the direction of the market. You still have access to withdraw money whenever you need to.

If you ask around about how safe investing in cryptocurrency is, you will most likely come across one statement quite frequently.

"Only invest what you can afford to lose."

That is because cryptocurrency is an extremely speculative investment.  You might make 10x on your investment here, or you might watch it fall 85%.  Those are the risks.  If losing 85% of your invested money would be life changing for you, then you probably shouldn't do it.  Manage your risk tolerance, only invest what you can afford to lose, and stay away from fly by night cryptos making big promises.  The test of time is a great evaluator of crypto investments.  Stability while gaining adoption being what you should look for.

It is what volatile speaks for that.

We don't have any control on it but we can control our emotions and as well as money to invest in. So before investing, there should be the idea on what may happen to your money.

It's not reassuring but that's the reality. It's better to know the reality than sweet lies because it will suck your hard earned money if you don't know the actual thing that happens after investing in crypto.

And you only lose if you sell, the same goes for profiting.

If the OP wants to invest in bitcoin now then I'm sure he won't lose 85% of the value of his investment. Bitcoin has fallen more than 70% since its last ATH, so the OP will be more likely to lose 15%-20% (based on history of biggest 85% declines) of the value of his investment before the bitcoin price returns to bullish.

OP, I feel safe to invest in crypto especially for potential assets, bitcoin is one of them. But of course you can't force your will if you don't like the risks that may exist. Bitcoin is also still not safe if you don't know how to secure your wallet from hacker attacks and anything else that causes you to lose assets, a small mistake will lose you everything.

Every form of investment has its risks and so as a crypto investment. That's why before investing, we're always advised to invest what we can only afford to lose and if you're smart enough to deal with every market situation, the volatility of the market isn't a threat to you but rather an opportunity to earn. Buy during the bear market and sell during the bullish trend.

Just before you invest, you should know everything what may or may not happen to your money mostly if it's going to be in crypto.

The thing is, there are a lot of investors, the new investors have been buying cryptos that they have no idea. And they're only going to ask when they're done purchasing it.

So, there's no sense of asking when they've just done it and will have those negative opinions from the others that they can't take for doing the wrong thing.

investing your money in stable coin it's like someone that is keeping he or her money from Fiat currency so whenever inflation happens do we still have such kind of value Bitcoin and the other cryptocurrency served why you keep them for longer time so the only changes there is that cryptocurrency changes because of value and that value through market condition

Putting your funds into stable coins is never considered to be an investment and also you cant really be having that peace of mind in terms of reliability and security we know that these things are centralized.It does have that specific purpose on why people been touching up stable coins which is to save up themselves on volatility but not in terms of investment which is really out of the option.
Investment on crypto is never been a safe one and we know on how volatility could really fucked you up if you dont know on what you are doing in the market and with your investments.
Decide on something which could really be beneficial for you.

is an investment in another way because dollar rate used to be high and also used to be low because of inflation so when you convert it into stablecoin and USDT so if the value goes up then when you're converting it you will have a profit because of increment of value so that is why another way around you can consider stablecoin as investment because inflation can only act on it when it is low
