Holding will be a risk or not??

[Traslavin]

Holding is risky because the future of bitcoin is uncertain, this is because not many countries are legalizing bitcoin so that everything becomes difficult to predict. this makes us have to sell immediately when we get a big profit, then waiting to buy when the price is cheap.

Being uncertainty of bitcoin is one of the factors to consider when you're going to invest. Yes the profit is sure but the risk is always still there to be bare in our mind. Those who choose to hold bitcoin should be always think wisely. But it does happened that those risks takers are the one who result in success.

Holding a coin is absolutely yes, because you are not sure whether the price in the future will rise or even drops. You can not even control the market, all you need is to wait what will be happen. It will depends on your strategy on how you hadle your coins in order to maximize your profit or minimize your losses.

They have advantage and disadvantage pf holding bitcoin.  Advanatge is if you hold your bitcoin for few years you will earn a lot of profit.  While the disadvantage if the price of the bitcoin decrease for sure your money will be lose also. But don't worry I believe bitcoin is for longterm and for sure you will gain profit but you need to be patient to get that profit.

Of curse risks are involved. However, if you believe in it, why not? In the end, no one knows what will happen to it. Maybe another crazy boom.

Hold for it! If the prediction for every year was already fulfilled.. I believe so same thing will happen again for the prediction of this year and next! That is whooping $60k!! However, you can play the price by day trading while it's swinging on this stage, but you must be wise and watchful to minimise the risks.

As long as you are investing with disposable capital, and not the only money you have in the world, the risk is acceptable.   

[investorss]

since the price of bitcoin is now falling, you can buy) for the future

[sukoyomi]

investing has a big risk, because bitcoin prices are unpredictable, sometimes down and sometimes up. therefore you must have the ingenuity of experience and patience to withhold bitcoin.

In case of Bitcoin potential gains are much higher than potential losses.  Risk is associated with most of the investments like share trading. Before buying the coins check it's stability in past and future. Don't buy it for short term profits as loss is also a part of profit. So holding bitcoin for a longer time period will be more fruitful.

As indicated by predictions bitcoin should have achieved 15k$ by end of 2017 and fall in first week of jan 2018

In any case, shockingly its effectively reached 17k$ in 2017.

Should I purchase or hold my btc?I don't plan to sell at any point in the near future.

Investing in crypto has a big risk, but also potentially high rewards as well....

If you hold it for a long term, it won't be risky. But holding it for a short term and letting your emotions play is going to be too risky. The price of bitcoin always tends to go upwards. So chances of making profit is high when you invest on bitcoin. But do keep in mind that there are still risks when you consider investing on bitcoin. So invest what you can afford to lose.

[jamelyn]

Yes it will be a risk since it decreases sometimes. Imagine holding bitcoin worth $1million and suddenly the price goes down by 50% so it would be a big loss but we musn't panic because it will surge up anytime. There really is risk in the market.

[Xester]

All coins is risky to hold, you cannot tell if the price goes up or goes down, if you are satisfied with the price if it goes up do not hesitate to withdraw, we just need to trust bitcoin and hold it for long time so we can earn a lot of profit with bitcoin. Just make the right decision so that in the end you will earn from it.

Well you are totally right.  Just go on with what you feel.  All coins are risky and actually almost all investment are like that.  I hold my bitcoins even if it hits rock bottom.  Thankfully, its price is going up once again.  When it hit the desired amount I want, I will withdraw them to secure my future.  Then I wil just continue earning bitcoins.

Yup investing and hold bitcoin for a long time is very risky because of bitcoin volatility sell now later price will go high, if you hold tigh the price will go down, that is my experience in trading bitcoin, choose wisely.

[colvis]

just watch the way the market is moving now you might be tempted to sell off your coin because of the fear of losing your investment, but i will advice you to keep it because Bitcoin is a life time investment... from the look of things i will assure you that it is going to finally hit 20,000$ again this year.. and those who sell of their own will forever live to regret their mistake

[yansen]

in my opinion, better to hold. bitcoin will reach the highest price in the event of scarcity. when miners have trouble pinching bitcoins. so bitcoin prices go up, to make new mining equipment. it will happen 3-5 years ahead. so you have to be patient and keep holding your bitcoin.

[Radio-Active]

holding bitcoin is risky, but if you patient enough to hold bitcoin for long term,
surely bitcoin price will increased much more, and you don't need to worry about risk

taken from the current situation, BTC will play between USD5k ~ USD12K until end of July, and possibly the situation will continue until the end of 2018, while BTC's price stability in my view is around USD8k ~ USD10k, as major USD in the forex market has begun to gain momentum from several issues which is reflected in US geo-politics and economics. while the cryptocurrency market did not show positive growth following the game of market spaculation and emotion as well as interference by governments in some countries.

related to "Should I purchase or hold my btc?", I recommend that you save more if your can, for any situation may change and this does not obscure to BTC's desire to hit at USD50 / BTC as a new record. even BTC is a major in the cryptocurrency market where all altcoin / tokens are assessed on the BTC and this gives greater benefits to BTC holders.

[Datebayo]

Holding is a hazard since you won't know how bitcoin or other digital currency varies, we can see that bitcoin`s value started to fall now so it is a hazard to hold it, imagine a scenario where the cost of bitcoin keeps on falling and never develop again. or on the other hand other crypto that you hold and would like to pump won't pump and started to dump? So it additionally goes for broke to hold any digital money.

[Innocentdevil]

I dont think so that it is risky when we hold some bitcoins but may be sometime it should becuase market falactulate up and down many times and that movment where we have some lose but many time some profit also so Holding is good for Holders and Trading is good for traders 😋😎😊
