There is more risk in crypto because it is relatively new and not stable, aside that I don't think there is any other risk that crypto have which is not applicable to other asset available in the world.
Even the price of gold is not stable and can also dump at any time though not as much as we see in the crypto market because the trade volume is very large. We have seen other assets lost up to $1 billion in one day in 2018.
Every business or investment has its own risk factors before we invest on it we all should know about it well. We will be able check the signals, various speculation and etc when you are invested on cryptos.
But gold or something will not show any symptoms while it is fluctuating buddy.
