As a newbie, I should know the risk point of investment in cryptocurrency. Could you please share your views so that I can gather some knowledge about the risk factors??
Thanks in advance.

The risk factor in investing in cryptocurrency is big. You should be aware of the coin you are investing to, the coin must be hyped in supply and demands in order for the price to be stable and has a chance to go high. You cant expect that everyday you gain profit. The cryptocurrency is so volatile, any time the price can be low or high.

Investing in crypto is always risky. In my view point risk is always there even in our daily work there is always a risk. But if you know to handle the situation you can minimize the risk that your facing. In crypto in order to minimize the risk of investing you need enough knowledge about cryptocurrency and how it works, Learn more especially the coin you are planning to invest. And lastly you need to do some fine research about the projects and what kind of coin you are planning to invest. I assure that if you do this you can gain and minimize the risk involved in investing in crypto.

The major risk factor is price volatility. Cryptocurrencies are highly volatile that sometimes the appreciation and depreciation can happen over 500% in a span of few days. Those who are looking to invest need to know what they are getting into and do research into Bitcoin and the other coins they are interested in.

I think you shoudn't invest huge amounts of money. Start your investing from 100$ and split them between 15 altcoins and bitcoin.

Risk factor is depends on your investment you should choose the long term in potential platform it will supporting your investment and risk factor is very less. But you should pick short term investment or day trading it is more risk in your investment so you only choose your convenient journey.

One huge risk factor would definitely be the nature of cryptocurrencies at the moment, which reflects in their volatility. That simply means that prices can go up immediately and also drop down at the same pace, which makes them super risky investment. Remember, only invest the amount you can afford to lose.

The market is FULL of scams and shit projects. If you want to avoid them you HAVE to do your own research and not just listen to what other people tell you to buy. Until you really understand a coin, stick to coins in the top 2 by market cap and after understanding the market a bit better, you can start making riskier investments. Volatility is HUGE in this space and if you don't know what you are doing it is easy to get wrecked.

Investing in anything is risky, but here is even more risk concentradet, so be careful with your funds!

there is a huge risk in general. Then there are different risks based on the projects you decide to invest in. There is generally less risk in investing in bitcoin than some newly founded ICO.

Risk and risk points, in general, they seem obvious to me. Everything regarding the crypto currency is risky in general, but each sphere of the crypto currency has its own risks, it is necessary to choose those that are minimal from your point of view.

Investments in crypto currency are risky. There is one simple rule - where is high profit there is always high risk. Cryptocurrency market is still young, that's the reason of price volatility - for professionals it's a big benefit, for newbies it can become disadvantage. Simply before investing in any coin, study more about it, read, watch and analyze the information.

Price fluctuation is always happen in this market so investor may face some risk. Sometimes this market is manipulated. But i think if you chose better coin like bitcoin then this coin may decrease your risk.

Yes certainly the risk factor is higher in cryptocurrency. But the reward you are getting for bearing the risk is also higher. No other platform will give you this much oppurtunity to earn like crypto market. So, I think bearing the risk is fine :p .

Investing in crypto is very2 risk bcause Ico ,market full with scam and buble price

Since digital money is in no way secured, there is a high probability of their rapid depreciation. With such a development of the situation, you can incur serious losses or completely lose your invested capital. Cryptocurrnecy is a sufficient level of volatility, for this reason the change in their value is rather difficult to predict, not only in the long term, but also in the short term. You can not be sure that their value will grow or remain at the current level.

It is quite easy. Dont over invest or invest anything that you will need, whether you need it now or at some point down the road. You must not attach yourself to altcoins, take advantage and profit while you can. Do good money management...

Crypto currency is risky as a whole. It has price fluctuation which makes people to do panic. But, it's for long term investment. You may face loss if you invest in this for short period of time. But, if ypou hold your money for long, you would be able to earn a good amount of money.

The first thing you need to know is the token of your investment. This reduces the risk of the token. Finally, you need to do some good research on these items and what kind of COINS you plan to invest in. I guarantee that if you do, you can get and minimize the risk of investment encryption.

I think investing in crypto is quite risky because coin prices are always changing or unstable, if we do not know coins will rise or fall will be very dangerous, my advice if you want to invest start with a capital that is not too big.

Investing in cryptocurrency is huge risk. Make sure you fully understand project and its coin, do not hurry, be patient and attentive, do not invest everything you have, start with small and always do proper research.

All of them are very risky, most of them don't have working products and/or aren't profitable, most of the investing is based on speculation at the moment.

For me - the most important risk of the market is the crypto currency - this is a big volatility. None of the existing markets has such a crazy volatility.
Therefore, for me there are three main rules:
First: we invest only the money that we are not afraid to lose.
Second: we invest not more than 50% of the existing classical assets.
Third is the diversification of investments.
The remaining approaches depend on the strategy of trade and investment.

not just in crypto, any type of investment especially if it's HYIP, it's all very risky, so you should be really ready. do not expect to profit in a matter of days
I think all of it must require process, bitcoin also will not reach at numbers like this if it does not require patience

It seems to me that almost all possible risks have been described here, but the most important thing in the general sense is that the risk always exists and will be, because today crypto currencies have no status for regulation, but in any other case the regulation will clearly be superfluous.

Always expect the worst when you want to invest in cryptocurrencies because the market is not that stable tet and so investing your money to a market thats not that stable is obviously risky.

my point would be:
1. volatility of cryptocurrency, some people can make the price of some coin rise and even can make other coin price going down or undervalued.
2. many scammer, you have to trust nobody if you want investing on cryptocurrency. scammers are every where and they will use every single chance they have to steal. i would prefer for doing your own research on which coins you want to invest.
3. need for long term investment to even double your profit

The risk point would really be the main which is VOLATILITY! This is the thing which will really burn up your entire balance or funds if you are careless enough on doing trading or investing into a particular coin.After the volatility then we go to Scamming and frauds where there are lots of too good to be true investment into this market which you should really be careful if you dont like to be victimized.

There is a lot of risk here in crypto world. First the risk  of investment in an ICO. We cant just depend on the team behind to do well so its a big risk there. Second the risk in trading, you as a newbie dont have any skill so it might cause losses in trade. Also the risk made by scammers, its easy to avoid so dont be think.about it, dont have transac to unknown person

The main risk is that everything could keep dropping to zero. There are a lot of projects with good ideas, but there isn’t a ton of proven concepts in crypto /blockchain at this time. The bull run in late 2017 was driven by hype, not real applications. Other risks include hackers, losing your private keys, and lack of experience. It’s a very emotional space, so just know it will play with your feelings along the way.

As a newbie for trading you need to follow the top crypto expert analyst on twitter and follow their signals.
This is what i did when i just entered trading crypto world.
And the result is not bad, sometimes they true about their prediction but sometimes also not going well, but you can learn how they analysis the charts.

There are so many risk points associated with the term Investment. Since investing in cryptocurrency is a form of investment, here also risk exists. The most common risk I think is demand and supply. Any abnormal change in demand and supply will increase the risk of loss. ::)

The risks are always there. You just need to do your own research and be careful about every decision you make.

I want to warn you that the market is a very risky place for investment. Beginners this applies in the first place. Volatility is huge, you can lose all your money very quickly. I advise you to start training on a demo account. And never trade for borrowed money.

You should never forget that, these currencies have really volatile prices, that means, the prices are changing fastly between very high and low values. So, I can clearly say that, investing in crypto might sometimes  be really risky.

Loss of risk. If the project is fraudulent and it will turn out later. For example the Centra
This is the most basic risk
And yet the risk of careless shopping that went through the excitement. That is, buying coins at maximum prices. This risk also leads to a loss of funds

one of the biggest risk point would be not knowing about concurrency, market and block chain technology. Having less knowledge about all this will easily push you towards to FuD. know your game properly, and do your own research.

In the world of cryptocurrency, investment is a very risky thing. Risky in the sense that once you invest in a certain project, there are no guarantee that you can take your money back because you might have invested in a scam project. One scenario is even if the project you have invested in is a legitimate one but the token's value once it hit the exchange is way below ICO price and can't recover even until some time, you probably lose some money.

Since you know how the word Investing does then you should know that there is a chance that your investment will fail. It will depend in your judgement on how you see coins/tokens/icos before investing. Always risk what you can afford only.

Few facts in cryptocurrency trading
1. Always stop loss, dont exchange in places where you couldnt stop, this is because coins might fall hard on dumps and since its 24/7 u might not be aware of it.

2. Trading in cryptocurrency is not regulated when it comes to market manipulation, exchanges are detering but not entirely responsible for it..

3. Some coins arent gonna get back its previous peak if you get in the wrong entry, knowing that many coins doesnt perform well as they dont have the product and businesss to sustain its value

you don't always get profit in investing sometimes you will lose some or all of your money. be patience and have a steady mind. always research first before investing because there are a lot of ICOs today that are scam.

Investing in cryptocurrency is always a risky thing. Though it a good sector to invest but it still got some risky issues. I think you should always be aware in which coin you are going to invest and the supply and the demand of the coin. Moreover this price volatility is also one of the major risk factor.

When participating in the electronic money market, everyone wants to make a high profit. But profits come with risks. Risks due to market fluctuations, the risk when choosing investment in the project has no potential, risk when the investment time is not correct ... According to me to limit the risk, investors need to learn to have knowledge of the coding market, to accumulate experience, to constantly monitor and analyze the market .. before making any decision.
If you are a newcomer in addition to the above factors you need to diversify investment, choose the big coin potential, long-term investment choices are less volatile ...

Risk is always present in crypto investments just like bitcoin its risky to invest if you are shorterm investors since the price is volatile.It will go down within a minute or seconds but it will god up also as much as possible.Before investing,study the project and the crypto for the assurance of getting back your investments with profit of course.

Since crypto is decentralised so you need to be more careful if you want to invest in crypto, the price volatility cant be controlled and there is no limit for the price swing, the other things is there is no one going to protect you from scammer, so toy need to be careful of the scammer that lurking around, and I must said that there are so many scammed project so only invest when you already do a lot of research

The main risk of investment in criptocurrency: 1) buy scam coins; 2) buy coin at the peak price; 3) visiting phishing site while accessing criptocurrency wallets

Risk is always in all aspects of life even if you are crossing a road there is a great risk of life, life without risk is nothing in this crypto world there is risk on every step selecting a coin,investing an amount doing business in crypto world every where there is risk, so be careful and invest after r&d.

If you want to earn something than you have to take risk. Its quite natural. So, definetly to earn from crypto you have to take risk. Price of coins always goes up and down. So you have to beware of it. You have to invest very carefully

You have a lot to do research projects ICO project whose name to avoid a scam. You can do it from a check of the website, the official social media whitepaper and sales achievement. I think it's very important as the beginning before we make the decision to invest in Cryptocurrency.

One of the biggest Blockchain problems is privacy. I know a very good project that can solve that and they're called DCC. Taking care of your privacy doesn’t always mean full anonymity, nevertheless DCC won’t keep or record any private information on its chain. They will only keep the records of hash value for authentications. Users keep their data either on a local or on a cloud user client. DCC will also be working with DATA to find more ways to read and store use data making it constantly advancing to a more transparent playing field.

risks should and must inevitably be traversed is fluctuation. When it was entered in the crypto investment then surely will face price fluctuations are very erratic and sometimes better for a newbie out and looking for a safe haven from on a large capital loss should be. But if holding out and holding it would be a great option for future investment results later.

A lot of risky point should be consider when investing. But if you will join in a great project with a great future, I believed that this will not be a lost to you. Try to check this one buddy. The DCC or Distributed Credit Chain the future of banking and finance http://www.dcc.finance/

Investment means risk. The hazard factor in putting resources into cryptographic money is enormous. You ought to know about the coin you are contributing to, the coin must be built up in supply and requests all together at the cost to be steady and has an opportunity to go high. You cannot expect that regular you pick up benefit. The digital currency is so unstable, whenever the cost can be low or high.

The risk of cryptocurrency is actually very big. The biggest risk is losing all money invested in crypto suddenly after buying it in amounts. This condition may happen if we don't have a certain good strategy based on the exact analysis on the progress of the crypto. We are not ready with the risks. Here, we must ensure when we are involved in crypto, it means that we are ready with all risks. WHen we are ready, we must have good analysis and strategy. When it happens, it can reduce the risks. We can gain the profits in the bigger amount.

The best way to avoid a risk in investing is choosing a good cryptocurrency. You know a good cryptocurrency by doing a research in their project or knowing more about their website.

Simple risk point controls:

1) Know what you are investing in.  (Do your own research to the best of your ability)

2) Do not invest more than what you can afford to lose.  (If you're in debt, don't put yourself in more debt)

3) It's a win if you sell at a profit or break even.  (Don't chase the bulls or regret the dips)

Cryptocurrency has a number of vulnerabilities. There are cases when hackers obtained unauthorized access to digital wallets and crypto market.You should take care of your safety. Dont trust unknown programs. In addition, the cryptocurrency market is incredibly volatile. To avoid significant losses, you must constantly keep abreast of the relevant crypto-currency community.

Cryptocurrency has a significant risk point for everyone, especially for newbies. Most of the Newbies can't make right decisions before investing in the cryptocurrency. Invest in cryptocurrency is now very popular over the world. However, you need to learn about coinmarketcap. The best price sharing website it is.  You should regularly check Coinmarketcap, all coins price, Price chart, Exchange lists. You can view price will up and dropping every day, and you need to learn how can it goes up and down and why? Moreover, then you should pick that moment. Like, bitcoin is now its low price, but we know bitcoin price will rise again, So, if you invest now in Bitcoin then what do you think if bitcoin price grows? You have profits! However, if you invest in an unknown coin, then you can lose all of your money!

Maybe you will understand what I am trying to tell you. Good Luck.

A good knowledge of the coins you want invest your money into is very important when it come to crypto currency investment and at the same time, your should not invest when the value of coins in question is at its peak because there is tendency of market correction.

the risk point of investing in crypto is choosing the wrong coin and not having a high price. Nowadays there are so many choices of coins, where we should be more selective and more aware of the ico offering ico promotions. so I think now we should be smart to see the situation whether the crypto coin is worth to be invested or not.

There is some risk for certain but it changes a lot in accordance with the market, but now I invest in bitcoin feeling no risk right now, it is at very good price.

1. Scam payment information and phishing. In the course of ordinary electronic currency transactions, users are tricked into entering phishing websites, uploading encrypted wallets and entering passwords.
2. The user address is wrong. Money lost due to incorrect address during transfer
3. The wallet file is missing. Lost or stolen wallet. Most users will store encrypted currency wallet files on their computers. So use malware to steal it, or if it crashes, it will be lost!

The risk in crypto is that we really lose our money (whole money or part) because of the very dropped prices when selling. The factor may be the panic situation and wrong decision and time to sell the coins. Sometimes, many people are panic when the price is falling down. many people then sell their coins although the price is lower than when they buy it first. It makes worst. therefore, don't be panic. Just analyze the market and see the chance and patient to hold the coins longer time until the market recovers.

I think Risks are always present in crypto investments such as bitcoins that are risky to invest if you are a shorter investor because of the fluctuating price. sometimes you will lose some or all of your money. Be patient and have a solid mind. always research first before investing because there are many ICO today that is a scam.

Agree. In my oopinion, 95% of ICOs today are scams. Sorry to say that, but that is my opinion shaped by working in the field. If you have a look at white papers, most do not have any concrete plan as to how they are going to monetize their "brilliant" ideas; not to mention, that some projects are nonsense - blockchain is not needed there at all. But the marketing guys concoct their official sheet shit where they bombard potential victims with complicated terms and bulky sentences to completely confuse them and capitalize on human desire to get rich overnight. All white papers promise to "revolutionise " and "change forever" something. But think about it for a moment - to bring something completely new and worthy into this world costs effort, sweat and tears. It needs EXPERTISE and HARD WORK. Without both of them any "innovative" idea will go lost - along with the money invested. So, in short: after you have learnt the bascis of the crypto, check 1. the team, 2. the whitepaper. 3. the roadmap.

of course the risk in terms of values ​​that could fall and rise at any time. because crypto can not be controlled and its value is very fluctuating that is vulnerable in ups and downs. you can explore again to find other knowledge about crypto industry in this forum with a lot of reading.

If you bought Ether last january, your current portfolio may be 50% reduced. Something like that.

There is a huge risk in every investment and investing in cryptocurrency is very much risky. A newbie like you will have a hard time dealing with these risks and it is a good thing to seek help. This is my list of risks.
- Cryptocurrency's price is community driven. Better examine the community of a specific coin before going in.
- Do not invest based from opinions. It is always good to spare some time to conduct research before investing. The opinions of others is not as important as the facts you can gather.
- Invest only an amount that you can afford to lose. A strong coin can get weak in an instant so invest at your own risk at all times.

I suppose this is more than of a tip  ;D

True, you must know well what you want to invest. The most risk part of investing in crypto is the value of crypto.
cryptocurrency price can change with much difference. The price very unstable just like now in the market.

Not only in ethereum but in bitcoin value too. As per january and the bitcoin price has reached the peak that was around 20k. Risk of crypto was involving a lot of factors. There are some factors right now that become the risk point in the crypto currency.
The price can be manipulated through spread FUD or fake news, The market can be manipulated with a lot of funds (mtgox and EOS).

The first thing would be that you could lose your money as crypto is a high risk investment, so make a decision on how much money are you going to invest, do not invest too much to start, learn and get experience in the crypto world before putting a large amount of money; assess the risk and make a plan for the investment. The second thing would be to find good projects where to put your money, be aware of scam coins and chill coins that may not have a potential future and may drop in price quick, look for good projects that are worth to invest for a long term. Third, when you finally invest find ways to keep your coins safe to avoid get hacked, using a hardware wallet is recommended, take step to avoid issues while making transactions on exchanges.

There are so many areas that may influence the course of a project and with that the risk involved when investing in it. It isn't that easy to define, besides the obvious give-aways. Let's say you buy in for 1 eth. After ICO it hits the exchanges and it becomes 1,5eth in a day, then dropping to 0,5eth...did you already take a big risk and did you lose? Perhaps it takes many months to reach 1eth again, or perhaps only a few weeks. Perhaps it reaches 3eth in 2 months, but then there's some fud or other issues and it could drop back to 0,5eth again in a day orso. Most of my investments are long term and I try not to spend too much energy in the daily risks involved. I'll check back in EOY or later...(of course I check daily, but I don't act on it). Patience often trumps risk :)

the risks of crypto currency in my opinion are:
market volatility, hackers, many fraudsters ICO

Since digital money is in no way secured, there is a high probability of their rapid depreciation. With such a development of the situation, you can incur serious losses or completely lose your invested capital. Cryptocurrnecy is a sufficient level of volatility, for this reason the change in their value is rather difficult to predict, not only in the long term, but also in the short term. You can not be sure that their value will grow or remain at the current level!

It is good to know about the risks before you invest. I suggest you to be prepared to lost the money you are going to invest since crypto is very volatile. Always do your own research before investing and avoid hyped coins.

It seems to me that almost all possible risks have been described here, but the most important thing in the general sense is that the risk always exists and will be, because today crypto currencies have no status for regulation, but in any other case the regulation will clearly be superfluous.

even how good the advices that will be given unto you,still youre prerogative if taking it or follow wht you want to do.but thats right lots of cryptocurrency now are dumping and makes harder to recover and some are just died.so what i can advice is spend some time here,review each coin you wanted to buy,learn their value and potential and dont rush because patient is the key to profit and survive here

the risk factor of investing in cryptocurrency depends on the type of coin you will make as a form of investment. if you choose the type of potential coin and price movements in the market always look to have a high volume of trading then the level of risk faced is not too large because the possibility of coins will continue to increase its value, but if you choose the type of coin carelessly without knowing more details about the prospect of the coin to be traded, then the possibility of the risk faced is obviously very large even you can easily lose

The real risk factor with cryptocurrency is high volatility. Price fluctuates huge even in one night there might be 1000x growth or might be 1000x fall we have to prepare for everything . Most of the coins in crypto world controlled by whales they decide when to pump and when to dump coin. There is no proven strategy in crypto currency till now.

which I know indeed every investment is risky and thus as a beginner, you have to be careful in investing because now many people are investing and not getting the benefits because now a lot of fraud and if you invest in ICO projects today many are Scam

In my mind the main points of risk: 1) buying coins during price peak/on pump; 2) phishing sites for criptocurrency wallets; 3) investment in scam ICO

- First, the trading platform is closed and players can not switch from virtual currency to cash when the need arises.
- Second, it is price risk. By the value of virtual currency can rise and fall very quickly.
- Third, there are many risks of bubbles, potentially damaging to investors.
This is what I want to share with you

the greatest risk and always faced by everyone was of the fluctuations. believe this to be a major problem both for both the old and new investors. It is possible for experienced will not matter because it is familiar. but for a new one, it will be a big problem giving rise to panic.

The risk will depend on what you buy and when you buy it. Obviously there are risks, because all investments must have it.

There are many risk factors to consider that you should aware of, if you are planning to invest in crypto world because you may lose all your investments in an instant if you did not do it right. If you are not mentally prepared or insufficient knowledge on how the market really works you will lose your investments easily. You should longer your patience when holding your investments, because in order to succeed in this field you have to sell or buy coins at the right time.

The only bad thing that you can suffer in here is that everything can drop even more , that is the only thign that i do not like about investing on a bear market, nothing more.

Before going into knowledge about risks, you need to look on other things. But, risks are very high if you do not know anything. If you are well taught here- there is no risk. 

There are many risks involved with the cryptocurrency market, but the primary risk is associated with the volatility of this market which is insanely high. Do not expect the value of any coin to stay stable for too long due to the extreme fluctuations they tend to exhibit from time to time on a regular basis. This is both a good thing and a bad thing since this opens up the possibility of earning huge money and losing money at the same time. Another big risk obviously involves the plethora of scammers and hackers prowling this market.

The RISK in crypto currency market trading investment, are several factors to be considers, one is your Ignorance on investment with out good information on the Coins/Token you preferred for investment is a great Risk, the amount, it is the same value of Risk you put in into the investment. you need a lot of market research to reduce such risk factors on investment.

I think the risk factor in investing in cryptocurrency is great. You should be wary of the coins you invest. You can not expect that every day you make a profit. Cryptocurrency is very easy to change, whenever the price can be low or high. So, be patient.

the most important thing is never invest the amount of money the loss of which will be difficult for you, and never invest in one coin, it will be better for a little, but in different coins

the most risky in crypto is the unresolved Hacker problem, the second about scam products, the decline in prices after the ICO. and legality issues in some countries.

Today we see the most of important risk. It's a BTC price dump. In this case, the whole portfolio is dumping more and more. And my patience becomes nervous.  ;D This is a my main risk

I think it is all risky, especially upcoming ICOs, they do not seem trustable and even seem badly now. Probably, If you are so cautioned about everything crypto is not for you.

The only risk factor I could think of when it comes to crypto is really the factor where in the investor is so confident with his research and investigation on a certain ICO that he decided to invest all his money into  the said company. Then those companies fail miserably and the value of his investment goes to zilch. Depressingly the investor loses money.

Risk point is limit you should not pass because if you do that loss in big quantity will be yours. In this issue ( risk ) you can see from technical method ( stop loss & take profit ) and psychology ( emotion control ), control and follow it before too late. My opinion is different from others because I use technical method only, meaning from number to number. Find the number and follow it as your guide. That's my view about risk.   

The main point on the risk of investing in crypto-currencies is not to succumb to the manipulation that occurs in this area.

you don't always get profit in investing sometimes you will lose some or all of your money. be patience and have a steady mind. always research first before investing because there are a lot of ICOs today that are scam.

It is good to know about the risks before you invest. I suggest you to be prepared to lost the money you are going to invest since crypto is very volatile. Always do your own research before investing and avoid hyped coins.

Any kind of investment is risky. Though it  is a good sector to invest because sometimes you can multilpy your investment in several times as in no other area.

I believe that investing in crypto is always risky. But to make your investment safer, you can get as much knowledge as you can about the coin you are going to invest into and you should evaluate possible risks and benefits.

Cryptocurrency is very volatile and no secure at all, that's why it is very risky. You can experience losses of your invested capital. It's difficult to make any predictions and it's quite exhilarating process.

The main risk factor of cryptocurrency is its high volatility. Its price fluctuates  enormously. It might grow or fall in 1000 times over one night. So we have to be prepared  for everything .

Crypto has a very high volatili. Risks are very high and you must never panic sell your coins especially when you bought it at a high price.

in my opinion, if Investing in cryptocurrency is a huge risk. Make sure you fully understand the project and the coins, do not be rushed, patient and caring, do not invest all you have, start investing from the small hold big ones so you do not feel losing your money everything.

Cryptoworld is full of risks. Cryptocurrency is extremely volatile and experiences major fluctuations/ In order to protect yourself you need to be careful and do a lot of research before entering the campaign...

The one ting that everyone must take not of before investing in crypto is he fact that  its highly volatile and unpredictable, iTs almost impossible to tell what coin will gain, by how much and when?  the worst part of it is the fact that  achieving stability in for the proves is hard to come by, the prices are always rising and falling all the time, these the main reasons as to why crypto investing is a risk

There are many risks involved in investing in crypto because the price is very volatile. There will be many unbelievable ups and downs that won't happen in other markets. In addition, such risks as cyber crimes, exit-scams of exchanges and dev are real problems of crypto.

I think the biggest risk is the unstable legal factors from different countries.
The second risk is that most altcoin is concentrated in the hands of a few people, so it may face the risk of price manipulation.

investing in cryptocurrency is a risky business, so invest with caution. But remember that there's always will be a risk

Putting your all resources into crypto is constantly dangerous. In my view point chance is dependably there even in our every day work there is a hazard. Yet, in the event that you deal with the circumstance you can limit the hazard that your confronting. In crypto with a specific end goal to limit the danger of contributing you require enough information about digital currency and how it functions,  Also, in conclusion you have to do some fine research about the activities and what sort of coin you are wanting to contribute. I guarantee that on the off chance that you do this you can pick up and limit the hazard associated with putting resources into crypto.

The risk is very big, in order to invest you it is worth to study the coin in which you are going to invest in more detail!

Investing anywhere is always very dangerous. Especially in crypto! Especially now. We need to gain experience, study the market, learn new and new. Then the risks will be reduced!

The main risk is to buy crypto on borrowed funds or sell it on the bottom, during significant correction. Also, don't buy shitcoins on small exchanges will little volumes - it can get scammed anytime.

There is always a risk in investing, of course, in the stock market it is not as big as here, but there are also risks there, because no one can 100% know what will happen tomorrow, this is the work of traders who study the terms of trade every day.

Before you start investing, look at the YouTube videos, news channels, read as much information as possible about crypto and about the coins and projects you are interested in. The risks are really great, but if you are informed and ready, then everything will good.

crypto currency is so volatile and in crypto anything can happen, you can invest your money in a particular coin and the price will dip so low and you will take a lose, so it is good to invest what you can afford to lose and do your research before investing.

Risk point of investing in cryptocurrency is when you do not know how to invest properly to to avoid the risk factor is that you have to study the cryptocurrency so when you invest on the market it will not be too risky and difficult for you to invest there are many ways on how you can avoid the risk of the cryptocurrency, but if you are newbie you will experience it because it is your first time to invest and you still do not know what is the right way to invest and make money in the cryptocurrency industry but if you know how to do it you will eventually start to slowly remove the risk factor.

the most dangerous risk is when you follow the ICO, because almost 70% of the ICO fails and there are so many scammers in the ICO.

when trading is also a risk may be when you are tempted to FOMO and buy coin while at the top of the top price.

The most risky thing you should avoid is that invest in cryptocurrency without any knowledge or experience about cryptocurrency and crypto world. You should know that it's not easy to get money in this world so don't believe in anyone in here if they tell you that you just need to invest in some cryptocurrencies or projects in their list :). You need to learn about this world first then you can avoid falling in trap of the whales :)

it's really true that we can avoid the risk that will occur even though there is still a risk that will happen but at least we have the knowledge to not fall into the future, we must be prepared to face the risks that will arise in order to gain profit in cryptocurrency.

There are a lot of risks and the most important of them, which lies on the surface, are market relations themselves and high volatility.

Everything has a risk. Totally this market has a risk. Most important and bigger risk is panic. If you panic while prices are falling , probably you can sell all coins than all prices again can increase. I trust this market there are risk in the market but just due to us.

The biggest risky is in day trading so if you are new here you should choose something more sure. In my opinion you should start with bounty campaigns because here you will can get important knowledge and experience which you will be need in future investments

And how much risk to play in the casino?
You can break the jackpot, or lose everything. So a same with the cryptocurrency. The only difference is that the cryptocurrency can be studied, analyzed, and you can try to avoid risks.

To invest in coins you should have the amount of money which will not affect your financial condition because you can lose all the money if the investment fails. To continue to live a normal life the money should be unnecessary

It is in the crypto-currencies that you can increase your capital several times in several months or even weeks. You can also reduce, or even lose all your capital during this time, it all depends on your perseverance, patience and a little bit of luck.

You cannot avoid risk when investing in whatever kind of asset you are investing in because there is always an inherent risk but you can choose to minimize risk by having a risk management always like always having a trading plan when you are trading and investing only what you can afford to lose. It may be the basic advice but many are still not following it because of being greedy and some even get to the point that they will borrow money in a very risky investment. This is the reason why credit card companies suspend the account or do not allow people to pay with credit card when they are purchasing crypto because many wasn't able to pay after they borrow last December.

If you want to invest in such a volatile market, first you need to have good information of the market (at least read this forum every week), develop investing strategy and strictly follow it, be sure that you cope your emotions and will not get in panic when you lose up to 50% of your funds.

Yes, that's right. Information is power. You can always find all information that you need on web site, in whitepaper and on platforms like IcoBench and ForICO forico.io (http://forico.io)

In crypto there's a lot of risk, such as market volatility,scam projects,hype coin and so many factors. But of all of this can be avoided if you do some research first before joining. Or you can ask your friend or relatives that already involve in crypto in long time. Because the key here are knowledge and skills so that you can earn in a profitable way.

The risk takes place here of course. Everything has a risk but crypto is the most safe way for investing because it is so popular now and people all over the world support it.

BTC - the heavy manipulated foundation for a heavy manipulated market.

If you are invested as I'am in this market keep always in mind that you are at will of a few very rich individuals - the Chinese, clever as they are got it early and own exchanges and mining farms - heck they even own BTC (bitmain has nearly 51 % hashpower).

Of course, the risk associated with investing in cryptocurrency is very large. So where there are always lots of scammers, you can buy coins that are depreciated or stolen directly from your wallet. Many altcoin are very unstable. Always remember the main rule: do not invest more money than you are ready to lose

Manipulation is the basis of the market, without them anywhere. In the stock market, which has been hundreds of years, schemes are thought up very many and very different. Therefore, young crypto investors will have to experience many times on themselves, what has been worked out for decades.

Nice suggestion yet investing directly without knowing on how things goes into this market wont really be good for you because you would really be prone on doing mistakes rather than making yourself profitable.
Risk is always there and you had proposed or tell him about bounty campaigns which do have also a corresponding risk on not being paid up inspite of all the hard work you have done but atleast you had gained some knowledge and experience on how this crypto market do works.

Yes in this forum you will get full information about any cryptocurrency in the market but you need to study more info out from this forum means read related articles and experts predictions etc. Cryptocurrency investment is a highly risky job not sure we can make profit or not, sometimes your luck will help you to win big amount.

You should know that just the same way you can make more from investing your money, you can also lose so much, if not all, from making bad investments. That is why you need to be very careful as to the kind of investments you make, be it long term or short term. Also beware of scammers as they are all over the place now.

You just have to understand that you risk losing all your investments or freeze them for a long time ! Basic rules as in the stock market.

In fact, the biggest risk point for cryptocurrencies comes from its own instability. Since cryptocurrencies come from the Internet, there are many dangers, hackers invading wallets, deceptive coins, and so on. If you are planning to invest, then you should first observe the role of the coin? What can it help?

It depends on the cryptocurrency and its advantages and disadvantages, so risk can be connected with its security, stability or even current trends.

For beginners, there are actually a lot of dangers, so you should start learning before you start making money on cryptocurrency.

in every investment in this industry, all have different risks. the least risk is to invest in existing bitcoin or altcoin in the trade. but it is still not easy because it will require research, analysis and research to find good. the highest risk in investment is in ico. ico has a great risk level that could lose a lot of money or vice versa.

the highest risk is the internet many are here to scam and invade what you have in your wallet, also you need to have knowledge about the coin you wish to invest kbowledge can be acquired here ib forum or study whitepaper.

In cryptocurrency the most risky aspect of it is its volatility. Your enemy here is time. When you close your eyes for a moment then open it there will be alot things that could happen in an instant in cryptocurrency. Just this factor alone could generalise of risky cryptocurrency is.

You may face legal risks. Most governments do not accept cryptocurrency. So you will not be protected by law if you run the risk of investing in cryptocurrency

Risk from hackers and the security of the trading platform. As there are no laws or regulations that specifically impose the liability of the floor, so if the floor is hacked then your money on the floor may be lost. If you trade on a reputable trading platform, this will limit the risk. In fact, there were hackers attacking the trading floor, taking all the money on the floor as:2014: MT-GOX closed and all investors lost money.In 2016: Bitfinex was hacked $ 65 million (but they did give investors another electronic currency).In 2017, BTC-E FBI closed, the risk of losing money also up to 90%.Moreover, the support of many types of coin also contains many risks. As it would have been possible for someone to create a virtual coin to install malicious code onto a trading platform, for the purpose of withdrawing money from other wallets.

There are no specific rules for virtual currency trading platforms, so the risk in trading floors is very high, which is likely to cause market manipulation. Hacker and security issues of the floor is also one of the risk factors. The risks associated with maintaining your coin: In addition to the above risk factors, maintaining your coin can also have certain risks such as machine failures, drive failures, forgotten passwords, not set The password should be taken away from others, hackers to penetrate the machine and transfer money, cheated through the network

The main thing you have to know is the token of your speculation. This decreases the danger of the token. At last, you have to benefit some examination on these things and what sort of COINS you intend to put resources into. I ensure that in the event that you do, you can get and limit the danger of venture encryption.

If you want to learn about risks go check the book called "Cryptoassets: bitcoin investors guide" by Chris Burniske.
There are a lot of info about the topic.

Risk and crypto currency is normal. Because without this in any way. And the most interesting thing is that the crypto currency does not hide this. So, that here the choice is yours. Or take a chance and hit a profit. Either you and the crypto currency are not following the path.

cryptocurrency has a great risk if you are not careful in investing your money. the main factor is the lack of knowledge about crypto so as to choose the project. if it is so you will get big loss.

the stock market has sown lots of coin crypto coins and lots of scams and waste projects, so we have to be careful to coin investment, so we do not lose big, we have to do own research and introspection.

Crypto investment world is risky if you are not careful in investing, my advice you should continue to monitor the latest news from the world of crypto, so you can determine when the right time to make an investment

many of the risks you will encounter when deciding to invest in ICO. uncertain market conditions, and price fluctuations are included. the biggest risk is that you will lose all your money if you choose the wrong project and end up on fraud.

I don't think that investing in cryptocurrencies is riskier than putting money into fiat currencies. In cryptocurrencies possible income is much higher because of high crypto volatility. It attracts people.

Volatility is the main risk in investing with cryptocurrency. You should invest to those which you think has the biggest potential and market and will have a long term stability.

The only risk points is crypto market is not like as the stock market, in my humble opinion the big whale can control the market price, and you never know when they will dump it or boost it, I have many time lose the money in it.

the most frequent risks and becomes a problem is very frequent fluctuations. This is the thing that causes the panic and, eventually, many of which go from crypto because of losing what they have. When the bus is quiet and the patient was certainly the outcome will be good.

For beginners, the first thing you need to understand is the investment risk. Every day, new projects will enter the market. You must have extensive research on it, or you will face great risks.
For individuals, they need to learn the basics to reduce risk.

I think risk is always present in crypto investments just like bitcoin its risky to invest if you are shorterm investors since the price is volatile.It will go down within a minute or seconds but it will god up also as much as possible.Before investing,study the project and the crypto for the assurance of getting back your investments with profit of course.

the risk in us investing in crypto, when we choose the coins we buy do not experience an increase in the future, or even we make the wrong choice that the ICO is a scam. if we get that then the risk that we can get is the payment or the results we can not reach us. therefore we must be careful, so that we do not experience it.

yes you are right all investments in this world and cryptocurrency has risks, all of them have risks, we all live will never be able to avoid risk, so you have to be brave to face the risks.

same with almost everyone's answer, big main problem of cryptocurrency is volatile. market can be manipulated by someone or a big company that had by many peoples to gain profit for them. it is suggested that you don't use you all money to be capital and only use free money, that you not use for daily life

Sometimes users market of large whales indeed force should be able to rotate the brain to always have to earn a profit of crypto. but indeed it's already a risk where manipulation will still be there. It should be made as vigilance when entered in crypto.

Volatility is not the only risk that is associated with cryptocurrency, but it is the biggest risk though in my opinion. Apart from this particular risk, there are many other risks involved with this market which include scammers and hackers lurking around trying to scam investors whenever they get the chance. They are coming up with various creative ways to scam people which is why it is best to safely secure your coins and tokens.

the factors that allow you to get to know the risks of the investments is to read a lot. You have to have a hobby of reading, especially a lot of reading on this bitcointalk. because that way, then you will be more sensitive to any risk.

Risk point in crypto currency is very high.Everybody who are in this job from long time advice us to invest only that amount you can afford lose.Always do the proper research before investment.Always choose long term investment.

Dangerous is wrong. There are a lot of new cryptocurrencies that can not be analyzed, and therefore the burnout is very large. But this is if we are talking about buying new cryptocurrencies for a beginner.

Scam projects and the desire to" somewhere " to invest money without conducting Technical Analysis. And other special decisions.

The hazard in crypto is that we surely lose our cash (complete money or part) due to the very dropped charges while promoting. The element may be the panic situation and incorrect decision and time to promote the cash. occasionally, many humans are panic when the charge is falling down. many humans then sell their coins although the charge is lower than when they purchase it first. It makes worst. therefore, do not be panic. simply examine the marketplace and notice the hazard and patient to preserve the coins longer time until the market recovers.

The market can affect things like stocks as well.

Risk is big as reward could be big.. my advice is to invest a capital that you can efford to loose in a day without any problem so max 5-10% of your savings

an ordinary exchange is sometimes unpredictable, and the crypto market is twice as unpredictable. So never risk investing all your free money at once. Moreover, do not trust all the information source, filter them carefully

In my opinion, the major risk would be a regulative decision about crypto assets to be considered as securities. In this case, the price of many coins would fall immensely.

Just like any other business venture, there are quite a number of risks associated with investing in cryptocurrencies. This might however be a limitation in that most people let these risks scare them and then prevent them from investing in the industry. One of the major risks to be considered is the volatility of these cryptos.

investing in crypto become too risky because of its sudden change of price, it is so hard to predict its movement in the market, that's why in any moment, your investment might decrease or increase.

Lack of knowledge of cryptocurrency, inability to recognize when to buy and when to sell.

The knowledge of this market is indispensable in every one who wants to take part. To avoid risks you must have knowledge and experience. Not only are you a newbie, it is indispensable.
Wish you have more knowledge and success nhé !!!

It regards think about the dangers previously you contribute. I recommend you to be set up to lost the cash you will contribute since crypto is exceptionally unstable. Continuously do your own particular research before contributing and maintain a strategic distance from advertised coins.

At first glance, it may seem that investing in cryptocurrency is very risky. But you must understand if you invest for a long period for example one year you will in any case be a winner.  Look at today's market, I'm completely sure that next year the price of all coins will be much higher than now.

For a beginner in this business it is dangerous, as well as any other, lack of knowledge and risk. It's good to have a mentor in this business.

There always a risk in any ways instead you investing or working on crypto. It is because the uncertainty in crypto and the market is so hard to predict for newbie like me too haha. The main points you should take attention is to be carefull for about everything you will take instead you are investig, joining project, etc.

The biggest risk is the crypto currencies themselves. The risks are much higher than the other things you can invest in. As you can see, even at the moment the crypto market has been in a prolonged decline for quite some time, which is not at all enjoyable.
And if you decide to invest in some ICO project, you just have to do a very thorough and carefully research of this project and the people behind it. Because there's a биг chance there's a scam.

All cryptocurrency industry is dangerous and tricky, you need to be aware examining everything around you otherwise there is a high chance to be caught in a trap of something scamish.

Crypto market is for risk taker. One should invest capital that one's can afford to lose. A small amount of capital.

Lack of knowledge about the cryptomarkets.

Can't recognize factor when to buy, sell or hold.

Losing money, losing everything, wrong coin to invest, scams, a lot of risk points. So make sure you do your research!

For a beginner, it is risky because of ignorance of the laws of the crypto currency, there can be large losses. Therefore, if you decide to invest in cryptocurrency, it is better to do it with the help of experienced, knowledgeable people.

You should know that any money that you put in cryptocurrency is one that you risk losing everyday. As a newbie do not jump into trading, that is one sure way for you to end up losing all of your money.
Always secure your wallets in the best way possible and store all sensitive information offline.
You should only invest money that you are willing to lose.

If a person does not know anything about this market invests in it.As for all the most dangerous for him to be the impairment of what he has invested.

I think the best strategy for people who plans to invest some money in crypto, is to invest an amount, that you are ready to lose.

Since crypto is decentralized so you should be more watchful in the event that you need to put resources into crypto, the value instability cannot be controlled and there is no restriction at the cost swing, alternate things is there is nobody going to shield you from con artist, so toy should be cautious of the con artist that sneaking around, and I should said that there are such a large number of misled venture so just contribute when you as of now complete a ton of research

The only risk you have in investing in Cryptocurrency is when you pick the wrong coin.  If you do not research and and you lack the skill and experience to invest in quality coin,  you might lose your money.  My advice,  follow the money and the experienced investors!

The risk factor in investing in cryptocurrency is huge. You can't expect that every day you make a profit. Cryptocurrency is very easy to change, whenever the price can be low or high.

There are so many risks that investors will face. One of them is found or wrong in investing. if there is no careful consideration, it can happen. The second is that the project is found to be a Scam, the most reliable way in this case is to first examine the Project to be Invested, First carefully examine the Team first, Team Work, Marketing Strategy, Target to be made, Legal basis and so on which are considered important for you as a prospective investor.

the risk is always present in every investment of any kind, and in cryptocurrency the risk lies in the very volatile price conditions and the level of security of the wallet that still has to be increased

Well, there are a lot of risks, like being unlisted on exchange for ICO you've invested in. Another risk is low liquidity or dropping below pre-ico price.
i don't even talk about exit scam,because this outcome is obvious.

risk in the crypto world must have existed, and in my opinion even large enough, but behind that there is also a big advantage, a very clear risk is that the level of crypto market movements is very volatile, so it is very difficult to determine when to buy and when to sell

Comparing the ratio of risk and reward then we can really able to see the difference and this is why some or most people do gets interest because of the profitability factor that would possible get.
There are lots of factors or risk on engaging to crypto not only on the volatile prices itself but also in the part of most traders which they do lack knowledge and being too emotional you are really putting
up yourself into trouble.

The cryptocurrency space is faced with price volatility, so many persons purchased bitcoin at $20,000 hoping to sell when the price gets to $50,000. But it's over 8 months and the price is unstable and has dropped far less than $6,000. In situations where a borrowed fund was used for the investment, it would be disastrous. It's better to only invest what you can afford to loose. Never use borrowed fund or money for short term commitment. The market is always unpredictable. Secondly, so many persons has got their wallet hacked as a result of their ignorance and inability to keep their private keys private.

Every investment has risks, as well as crypto, and I see the risks here are very large. and behind the big risks there is also a big advantage. because if you are not able to accept big risks don't expect you will get a big profit, that's why now many big investors from all over the world enter crypto investment. But if you know to handle the situation you can minimize the risks you face. In crypto to minimize the risk of investing you need sufficient knowledge about cryptocurrency and how it works.

There are a lot of risks when investing in the cryptocurrency market such as having a transaction, or familiar password or keyword for your wallet, phishing on the net ...

A huge abundance of information. Which is controversial, full of rumors. This is confusing and, if not sorted out properly, can lead to large losses.

It is important to understand that there are always certain risks associated with investments, there is a risk of fraud and error, so you need to make a responsible choice.

I believe that volatility becomes the main risk when investing in crypto. Care must be taken to select a suitable project with good potential.

Many people really underestimate low liquidity. A coin can be so hard to trade it's unusable, so easy to inflate/deflate it's basically a scam waiting to happen, or even just die out and turn worthless. It's very, VERY dangerous!

Another warning: the harder people are promoting it, the more risky it becomes. Pump and Dump is everywhere, especially on newer coins or ones with lower liquidity. Usually it starts with a lot of astroturfing about how awesome a coin is and/or how it's "going to moon" and ends in a lot of broke people.

Honestly, I'd tred carefully with anything under two years old, especially if it has low liquidity. CoinGecko is a good place to check this stuff.

Lastly, doing the research can be a problem in and of itself. The astroturfing can get pretty bad and whitepapers don't make for newbie friendly reading. Unfortunately the research is needed for a wise investment...

On my opinion, as there are no laws or regulations that specifically impose the liability of the floor, so if the floor is hacked then your money on the floor may be lost. If you trade on a reputable trading platform, this will limit the risk. In fact, there were hackers attacking the trading floor. Be carefull and always pay attention, mate.

There are a lot of risks and in order to properly assess the scale I would probably recommend that you still try to invest a small amount in any project you like that you would consider normal, then you will understand all the risks that are present today

Many newbies to the cryptocurrency market with a dump start to panic and sell their coins at a low price. They lose their profits and their investments ... Of course, investment in the cryptocurrency is very risky! It is necessary before investing your money, to understand these risks well and not to panic while dumping, but to wait for the rise in prices of crypto. Collect the maximum information about the coin you want to invest in. Good luck to you!

According to me the biggest risk is the declining trend of the crypto you invested. The second is the ban by local laws/policies. The third is the loss of your password or key. And the forth is whether the cryptocurrency you invested will survive in the competition.

The main risk for me is the difficulty in choosing a truly reliable and profitable project in order to avoid possible losses of your money.

Beginners need to understand that the investment risks here in any case remain. Therefore, you need to learn the basics of trade and investment before starting work.

Crypto market is high risk market for short term Investor, But For long term investor Risk convert in to huge profit, you can check the graph of bitcoin in 2015 to 2017 how much huge profit investors earned in 2 years, same as ETH.

Crypto currency is associated with lot of risk. First you must have enough knowledge and understanding how crypto works before investing. Second you must fully aware of every coin you like to buy,do some thorough research before buying it. Then always study first before joining any projects if those projects are not hype or scam.
 

There are many risks in the crypt and so when I started to get acquainted with the crypt I first tried long-term investment in promising coins, and  now I look closely at some coins for day trading.

The risk factor is you lose everything, what you invest! If you want to succeed in crypto, you need good knowledge what you invest in, follow their telegram group, read white paper, know the team and most of all be very patient! I know a lot of people who earned from crypto, but because of their greed, they kept on investing and now they are almost broke, as when it was time to sell, they kept on buying while it was at a peak price. You need a good strategy and a lot of patience

Investing in cryptocurrency comes with huge risk. You must know how what you are investing into. If its a coin, you need to know what coin it is and be sure of the team of the coin you are holding. Always make sure that the developers are working.

Thirdly, you need to know how to invest. Do not invest all your money. Always invest little by little in my own opinion.

For a beginner, first of all, the most dangerous is ignorance of the technical and financial aspects of the market, as well as a personal desire to spend all your money in one project.

the factor is very large you can lose your money up to 50% in a short time, that's why you have to know the coin before buying it ..
if you are new to crypto you should buy coins like BTC ETH XLM etc.
because it will be more risky to buy the newly released ico coin.

The thing you have to know and accept is that crypto currencies are very easy to change and in crypto everything can happen. You can invest your money in certain coins, it's up to you with all the risks. Whatever type of investment, you must understand, don't let you not know the risks, because investment is not just about profits.

I think, all crypto currencies carry a big risk. Crypto has very high price fluctuations, and often makes people panic. But, if you choose a long-term investment, maybe you will only have a little risk. But, if you really want to take risks, you can take short-term investments, or daily trading.

Right, the most important thing is that you have to know what you want to invest. The most risky part of investing in crypto is the crypto value itself, cryptocurrency prices can change very quickly. This unstable situation is exactly as it is on the market. So, you must be careful before planning to invest in it.

All cryptocurrency are at risk because of unstable prices. If you want to invest then you have to do research before investing, patience in crypto is very important and you must have it.

        Everywhere there is a soy risk. The danger of losing your investments in the casino, the danger of walking along the road. There are a lot of all kinds of dangers that surround us. There is a danger of investing in a project that in your opinion is promising but in fact a hat. I'll tell you who does not risk that he does not drink shompanski.Eto Russian proverb.

Risk is everywhere, in all matters in this world has a risk especially in decision making. In crypto there is also but you can prevent this or minimize it. Before investing just try to study first or do some research of the coin you are investing, at this this point it is sure that you can minimize the risk and maximize your profit.

it is not easy to explain this. You need to know the subtleties of technical analysis of the market. And it's better to ask financial crypto experts. To give you a full answer.

Good knowledge about crypto will be very important when you come into this investment. You don't have to invest in large amounts when the market price is down, you better try a little and slowly. That will create experience, and you will be great.

In cryptocurrency, risks is so high. Every minutes or every seconds the price getting high or low. That's why if you're planning to invest in cryptocurrency. You must know how the market runs. It is not easy to explain but if you will persevere to learn it. You will have enough knowledge on how it works or tactics on how to earn.

Actually the risk factor in the investment depends on the type and character. Long-term investment sometimes has less risk than daily trading.
However, in essence, every time you want to make an investment, you must know the character and potential that it has.

Well mate, investing in cryptocurrency have a high risk level. You don't know what will happen because of the market trends. But you can minimize the risk if you eliminate all the factors. Before investing in any coins you must do thorough research and analyze it. Follow every social media accounts of the coins you are going to invest.

The risk factor in investing in cryptocurrency is huge. You must be aware of the coins you invest. You can't expect that every day you make a profit. Cryptocurrency is very easy to change (volatile) , whenever the price can be low or high.

Once you invest in cryptocurrency then expect the risk associated to it. You must have knowledge before you do it and you must aware the risk factor once you start to invest. Make sure your investment is have potential, so you sure that you can make profit from it. Choose the best crypto and invest wisely, dont put all your money its better to start at small amount.

When it's already in the crypto then that is most at risk and also dangerous. many threats are here even more than that. the risk of loss of the real, as well as other factors, also exist. need to be careful and patient when it was entered in this field because anything could have happened.

The most dangerous thing in cryptocurrency for a beginner is a lack of knowledge about a particular cryptocurrency or processes associated with them.

The main dangerous moments for a beginner in the crypto market are ignorance (uncertainty in the choice of traders, ignorance of the laws of the market, inability to calculate the real value of the crypto currency) and excessive credulity.

You might buy a shitcoin hoping it to be the next bitcoin and losing all your money in the process because you will have no buyers when you try to sell it.
So invest in cryptos only after doing your own research and if you have patience to hold and ride this bumby road.

That has been said many times over around anywhere investment is talked.
Not just bitcoin, not just bitcointalk, not only about crypto, about EVERYTHING that involves making money. Because risk talking level should be under the control which means calculated and affordable (on the event of expected losses) risks are highly recommended.

You can invest what you can afford to lose, anything more than that and you are putting yourself in jeopardy. I have heard and read about people who buy bitcoin with their credit cards and even sell some stuff like their cars to get more money out of this "gold rush" of crypto price increases. Don't do stuff like that ever no matter what.

There are a lot of risks with investing in cryptos and a lot of them can result in loosing your money.
First is getting your private keys compromised, through hacking or carelessly.
Second is sending cryptocurrency to the wrong wallet type or address.

Buy coins always by checking their all time highs and all time lows. By comparing them, you able to decide to buy on lowest dip possible.  Before investing, we should have thorough knowledge about 1 or 2 years full of crypto market graph to note where it was previously and currently where it is.

For a beginner, it is dangerous to choose the wrong project for investment, invest a lot of money and burn out on this. It is important in the beginning to understand in detail the topic, opportunities and risks.

Not knowing the basics of cryptocurrency can lead to certain negative consequences for a beginner. Therefore, before you do, you need to study this area in detail.

Obviously the risk is that you lose a lot of money. Just don't invest too much money and you shouldn't have to worry too much. Still plenty of money to be made if you're careful.

I agree that before trying to invest, you need to acquire at least basic knowledge of crypto-currencies and only then start investing money. otherwise you can make a lot of mistakes.

Be warned, this is a hugely speculative investment. There are a host of cryptocoin vulnerabilities that you need to be aware of. Hackers have gained unauthorized access to digital wallets and cryptocurrency exchanges. As recently as 2016, more than $50 million in ether was stolen from investors in a fund known as the DAO.

As elsewhere, there is a risk of investment. Now there are a lot of scammers in the crypt, and there is no sense in investing in meaningless companies. Invest in coins. They, too, do not hold very well in the market.
