Well from past couple of weeks we have seen btc being very risky in terms of volatility . Its being ranging form 2300 - 3000. Its being a roller coaster ride for everyone as after reaching 3k it started to dip and now its reached 2400 levers. But given the time it should bounce back above 2600 in couple of days .
It will be every time risky, wherever you invest you will be faced with risky things, so the bitcoin is, if you think it as a easy money in short period of time then bitcoin is not a good option.
Now as the bitcoin price has been dumped a bit I think a good move is to move the funds in other coins and start trading a little bit, many coins are now shining in the top exchanges, coins like Dash, ltc and some other have a good increase these days.
