is it risky to turn all my money to bitcoins?

[randal9]

The market value of Bitcoin is constantly growing. Converting all your money into this is a form of investment, the more money you invest, the greater the profit. Now this is a little risky, because it is not legal for most countries, but if you live somewhere where it's legal, I think it's a good idea

Putting all your money in bitcoin is a very very big risk. Its like putting all your eggs in one basket. The value of bitcoin changes from time to time therefor the value of the money you invested also changes. In case bitcoin crashes, you won't be able to go to someone to get your money unlike banks because it is a decentralized system. Its better that you only invest the extra money you have.

I think you should turn the funds that you can control the risk and buy the encrypted currency, so it's OK. If you're beyond your risk control, try not to do that. The market for encrypted currency is always rising and tumbling, which requires you to have a certain mental capacity.

It is really risky if you turn ALL your money and rely on Bitcoin price in market. No one knows if Bitcoin would remain in an endless life or cannot be shutdown. We all know that investing on it will make your money grew soon. But how if its price goes back to zero? Will you still wait? You should only invest SOME of your money. I suggest you must wait for its price to go down first, be updated in crypto news. So you will be both smart and wealthy in the future.

is it risky to turn all my money to bitcoins? anyhow this money sits in the bank and do nothing for!

Yes, I think it is risky.Because Virtual currency always decreases the value increases.But the value of government approved money does not decrease.If you buy bitcoin with all the money, then it can be reduced at a time.Although it can be good and beneficial.There must be risks here.

Bitcoins are currently worth $ 11,000. From the beginning of 2017 until now, bitcoin has been x7 times. Currently my main income comes from tradecoin and bitcoin. I am sending all my savings into bitcoin. Be very careful when investing.

LOL... You are saying that you should be very careful while investing. And at the same point, you are saying that you are converting all of your savings to Bitcoin. You are already having a sizable Bitcoin stash. What is the need to increase the risk by adding more coins?

[shawn995]

yes it is a little risky , if you turned all the money to the bitcoin  and the rate of the fall down and you need the money for some of your need and you want to use your bitcoin, in this case you will lose some of your money but in major  case you will earn money because the rate of the bitcoin is rising all time.

[joetiger]

of course it is better risk to convert bitcoin into cash

[Nowherman]

I know several people who have transferred all their savings to bitcons and are now getting a decent profit.
Recently, the information was published on the first bitcoin billionaires brothers Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss.
So it's not too late to get rich on bitcoins. I think.

Seriously why is this thread still alive?   can you newbies stop shit posting?

That's a high risk but it also offers high profit in return if nothing will go wrong along the way. The question should be is, are you prepared with the risk? Because if you are then you can go do it but if you are smart then better not do it.

[Oliver A]

Yes, of course, it is risky, if you are really interested to turn all your cash in Bitcoin then turn half of your amount to Bitcoin. So that if some disaster occurs it should not harm your life.

[Carlsen]

There are many possible ways to make profit with bitcoin, unfortunatelly there are many ways to lose money with it as well.
It does not have to be a decrease of bitcoin price.
The coins can be stolen, you can make a mistake with a transaction or simply forget the data to access your coins.
So bitcoin is and always will be a risky business.
Turning all your money into a risky investment is not a really good idea in my eyes.

if you are a risk-taker and already an expert in making money in bitcoin, then go for it. After all, all kinds of online investments are risky and bitcoin is no different from it. But if you are newbie to bitcoin investment, it better to study cryptocurrencies first and their volatilities.

No its not riskey at all to transform your money into bitcoins in light of the fact that the costs of bitcoins are going increasingly elevated quickly so its safe to change over all your money into bitcoins and keeping money has alot of hazard so in the event that you don't need any sort of hazard than change over all your money into bitcoins.

[Pamadar]

Yes, of course, it is risky, if you are really interested to turn all your cash in Bitcoin then turn half of your amount to Bitcoin. So that if some disaster occurs it should not harm your life.

if generalizing then its should not be all in because we can't say what can happen the next day, we can place big part of our investment if we
really do believe that bitcoin will turned big after some years, so if worse things happen we still have some money to use especially in any
emergency cases.

[ravedien]

Bitcoin is too volatile, dont put all your money in it. Maybe put a 20% then leave it a year. Treat it that you already lose it

[marielbeckham]

Without any doubt "no half measures" is risky in such a case. It's always better to turn that part of the money to bitcoins which can't damage your budget to a great extent if there is some unpredictable failure. The slight trick which is used by many people is to invest in several cryptocurrencies simultaneously so to make sure that you will gain some profits anyway.

[gabbiee]

Investment always involves risk. But putting it all in one place is too risky. Bitcoin's value is always changing and we don't know if it will always be pumping. It is better to divide your money to different investments or projects. Don't focus it all in bitcoin because there are also altcoins who has the potential in case something went wrong with bitcoin.

[rgcoin]

yes it is always risky to invest all your money in trading or bitcoin ..

[kiddeon123]

I think investing all your money in bitcoin is to risk, bitcoin is to volatile, it might go down as fast as it goes up, I suggest for you to save some as a financial security, so that you can still have something if your investment fails. But it is still up to you if you will proceed or not. If you will take the biggest gamble in bitcoin and trust your future in it.
