is it risky to turn all my money to bitcoins?

[Festus Maximus]

Short answer, yes, it's risky. HOWEVER, if you had done it on the day you made this thread, you would have a 69% return right now. I'll go out on a limb here and say that's a tad bit more than you would have made in a typical savings account.

[thulisman]

This is fine, but you should consider choosing lower bitcoin to convert as it is being pump high. After a rising wave will be falling wave, you look forward to this moment to buy.

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

Well, i would say it is very risky - because in one day you can loose everything if that bubble will explode. I would suggest you to use some part of that money and have a look, what will happens with it.

As far as I'm concerned bitcoin is about the surest, safest, and best investment out there today. There is zero doubt it will be at least several times higher that it is now in the following months/years. I don't think you can say that about any single other investment in the world.

I think putting all your money into bitcoin is perfectly safe and the fastest safest surest way in the world to make money with zero effort right now. That's why I have already done this! I've been putting basically every last dollar I have into bitcoin since late April. Heck I even took out a large loan a couple weeks ago to buy a bunch more bitcoin. I just finished buying bitcoin with the loan yesterday, and the new ATH from this morning was only a few hundred dollars shy of what it needs to be for me to be making money off the loan (including all the interest I'll have to pay), not even two weeks after I took the loan out!

You just want to make sure you have a little bit of money in the bank in case you have an unexpected expense. Other than that the smartest thing you can do right now is put all your money in bitcoin.

[Tavarez]

Very risky to turn all into crypto...... the smart thing would be to invest only 10-15% of your funds (and wait for couple years to gain some profit). Not necessarily BTC because some other alts have bright future as well. All you need is a good research of a certain coin and then follow and track down all news around it.

I think you should spend 50% your money to invest in Bitcoin. If you turn all your money, it is very risky. The rest money, you can buy altcoins or invest in the Stock market.

Investing in altcoins and investing in the stock market is even  more risky, bitcoin has volatility greater than the stock market but the stock market is filled with money printed by the governments to artificially make it to go up, they are in a bubble and at some point it is going to crash and when that happens a lot of people that had their savings invested there are going to lose all the money they have saved during their lives.

Yes maybe you should divide it by 2 part, half for your investing and the other for your savings. And the advantages of having saving is you can get it everytime you want or use it in case of emergency. And the advantages of investing is you can have high profit and make it an additional income through invest some cryptocurrency.

Ofcourse!! You should not put your all eggs on the one basket, and this is the first rule of investment! keep buying BTC and invest on Altcoins that has potentials. Also you can invest on ICOs. Nowadays they are growing and are the best place to invest. BAT and other similar ICOs proved that they can be a good alt for BTC as well. Future is on companies which are go on ICOs. You can take a look at Gilgamesh Platform, they have awesome idea that I believe they will grow fast, they want to build a book social network and remove the middlemen from book industries. They are not scammers they really want to help authors and readers to get rich and spread the knowledge entire the world.

Bitcoin is giving great profits but even if that is the case to deny there is a risk it would be a mistake, while I want bitcoin to keep going up I’m realistic and know that bitcoin is not always going to do that and if you buy when the price is too high then you will needed to hold for months just to break even.

[vinz7229]

Definitely Yes!!!  All kinds of investment is not advisable to put all your assets, because you don't know what will happen in the future it is very risky, but their is an option that you are rest assured that your investment well gain profit after the maturity of your investment which is the bank, because banks has the control to secured all their investor assets. Unlike investing in bitcon it is very unpredictable when it gonna be up and down, so it is not advisable to invest all your money in Bitcoin.

[HEWRA]

Obviously it is extremely risky, you cannot expect that doing that will be a good move. There are many scenarios that can occur, however i still think that buying a lot of bitcoins to just hold them is a really great view for an investment.

For now, it  looks not so nice because price of the bitcoin has exceeded 7000$ per one, so it is all time high! To be honest, i would prefer to wait for some time to see some price drops but still i would not convert all the funds i own on the bitcoins: it is just so god damn risky!

[AltCoinProject]

BitCoin does not have any balancing mechanism, so it is not stable and risky all. people are responsible for their own decisions.

Based on my research that bitcoin price or value is not stable so if you invest in bitcoin you should need to take the risk because its to dangerous for that but if you have a faith in bitcoin price go invest your all money ang get huge money someday.

[jatin729]

Yes it is very much risky because bitcoin is decentralized currency and we can't predict the country govt. Mood about bitcoins, and one thing more bitcoin is not stable currency. So Stay away from turn all money to btc.

[GorillaDental]

of course it's risky....you're taking a risk it won't work out, that's risky by definition, right?  Fortune favors the bold, they say. They say a lot of stuff, though. Best to risk no more than what you're willing to lose...don't risk so much that losing it will make you desperate and depressed. Invest in the future you but also protect the future you...chances are you'll be around for a while!

[Tahsin Kabir Kollol]

Bitcoin price instability that makes some of the results we get is not satisfactory. Sometimes When the price is Rising it could suddenly decrease drastically. But I think Bitcoin not only we use as long-term investment, If we are smart to take momentum then Bitcoin can be a very profitable short-term investment. With So the results that we can be satisfactory because at any time we can benefit from having to wait too long without any clear certainty.

[Mukulislam]

I think risky because if bitcoin value will decrease then you you will fall in a big loss. If bitcoin value increasing daily,So you will get big profit.

Yes, it's risky to turn all your money into bitcoin. Bitcoin is volatile and if you know what you are entering you understand the risk that you'll be taking. And if your money is just staying in the bank and earning with a very low interest better to take the risk in bitcoin by buying at dip and wait for it to grow. The profit in bitcoin may grow in lesser time than your expectation. More risk, more profit but invest only what you afford to lose.

Industry experts suggest investing 5% of your hard earned money in each quarter to minimize the risk as opposed to putting all money in one go.

[YouKnowMe]

Yes, that would be very risky, any investment is. Invest only what you are prepared to loose. Don't put all your eggs in one basket.
