Bitcoin and Banks are both risky, we do not know until when will bitcoin last but what make it advantage was there is a big chance that it will pay you back a hundred or thousand folds if you will know how to hold it longer while banks it only has a small percent to make your money grow if you invest ut there. In short bitcoin is more profitable compared to banks.
I think that investing in banks is safer, it's just that, sometimes people are looking for greater potential in comparison with others. the rise in bitcoin prices proves that investing in bitcoin is better than a bank, only that it is more risky.

I found WHenHub project and I am excited! Do you know why? Because using WhenHub (which is part of the WhenHUb Interface Network) people seeking Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) can find them, interact with them, and finally pay for the SME’s time, without friction and with the convenience of a mobile application using digital utility tokens called "WHEN Tokens"

Bitcoin is more risky than banks. The crypto currency has a lot of problems with scammers who, because of your mistake, can enter your purse, fake ICO, there are no guarantees that the stock exchange in which your assets lie will work the next day, or hackers have not hacked it. These are some of the biggest problems, why many large investors will not invest in crypto currency, but they will use ordinary banks. If in the future some problems improve, and your crypto-currency capital can be insured, then I think that bitcoin will be able to compete very strongly with banks.

There is no comparison of bitcoin and bank investment. Bitcoin is subjected to market risks so investing in bank is much more secure than btc. Btc is can go below the amount invested. In bank investment atleast your invested amount is secure atleast.

In many parts of the world,investments with banks are retrogressive because the interest they are willing to pay is almost at same level with the inflation rte which basically means your investment only benefits them.The returns are very small but they are less risky.Bitcoin on the other hand can bring so much return on investments but the risks are significantly higher.To me.it is all worth it

Cryptos are now going through the same stage, which bank investments went through during 20-30's of last century. In the beginning banks were more profitable and yet less stable. Within time, banks became reguled all the way, banks had a strong competition and deposit % dropped to low.
Cryptos doing the same and I see some full coincidencies right here

bitcoin is risky than banks and i don't think anything can possibly overcome banking system's safety limits because they do not do anything.  But Bitcoin is the finest investment asset of present era and no bank can provide you the amount of profits that Bitcoin provides to it's investors.

I think the bitcoin investments will have a higher risk than you use the money you deposit into the bank and they use part of your deposit to invest. Banks will use your money to invest in  real project    and the risk is also lower. invest in bitcoin you have to depend on price fluctuations it. If you invest at the wrong time you can lose a lot.

Investing in Bitcoin is very risky, of course, any market that is so high profits is always accompanied by high risk, you should determine this from the beginning. For me, Bitcoinn is always the first choice.
Actualy I agree with you mate. Investing in bitcoin is too risky when you were just starting in blockchain market. You can tell whether the  investments will result in fruitful one. The advantage maybe is when investment is good you can realy earn and huge amount of profits. The bank investment for is more safer investment. But you can only expect small amount of interest as the return of your investments.

Investing in anything is indeed risky. Banks today require certain requirements before you can invest. They require this needs because they want us to be sure that we fully trusts them with our money. Bitcoin is also good because it may be fruitful if we wait long enough.

We have to keep in mind that investing may cause us unforeseen circumstances that can be both positive and negative.

Many people choose to safely deposit money into a bank for interest instead of leaving it at the chance of bitcoin. Bank investment is less riskier but what bitcoin can give you that no bank can ever give you.

Bitcoin is definitely riskier than bank investments. the price fluctuation can make you rich or you might even lose a big deal of money. on the other hand, bank investments are classified with your risk taking capacity. higher the risk, higher the returns can be, but at least you can filter among lots of options. whereas in bitcoin it's like putting all your eggs in one basket.

Bitcoin is indeed risky. But bank investments are risky too. In our country (coz I'm not sure if this exist in other countries). When you have a large amount on your account they will call you and ask you if you want to invest, minimum of 20,000 Php (or 400 USD). They will propose some investment plans where there is a choice of low, medium, or high risk investment. When you choose the high risk there is a chance to lose or gain 100% of your investment (Medium is 75% and low is 50% if I remember it right). It doesn't make sense to me, it sounds like a scam, they will invest using your money and you don't have any control to it. That is why I like bitcoin more, coz Though it is risky and it's very volatile, you have full control on your investment.

What do you guys think?

They are both risly in their both eayd but the more riskier is of course the bitcoins because their value is volatile which means if you invest now the price or the calue of the money you put in can either go up or down depending on the price of the bitcoins into the market. While into the banks it is safe but the bank will not gave you a huge profit because the bank interest when you invested in them are just 1% of your total investment annually and that is a very  money and the risk their is of course if the banks leads into bankruptcy but that is lesser than the bitcoins volatility

I think all the same, you can rely on something new in the world, namely the crypto currency, as it is currently well developed and shows itself from the best side and well.

When it comes to investment in general, it is a risky task that we all do irrespective of the medium you pass through. whether through bank or bitcoin (cryptocurrency) but one is somehow less risky than the other. I think bitcoin investment is by far risky than bank investment. The high volatility of BTC accounts for its higher risk involved in investing in bitcoin.

That investment plan is actually not a scam instead is it some kind of bank promotions which is so complicated but I think bitcoin or crypto investment still risky than bank investment because when you invest in banks there's an insurance or compensation you might receive when the bank is bankrupt but in crypto industry you might end up losing all your investment when everything goes down.

Bitcoin is riskier than bank investment because in the first place bitcoin as a cryptocurrency is volatile, in the sense that its price can fluctuate at any point in time due to the fact that, it does not have any central control regulating it. On the other hand with bank investments we have our central banks who monitors the system of fiat currency so that the currency does not lose its value. Among these two investments bitcoin can increase your interest very fast and you can also lose it if care is not taken but bank investment will increase your interest at a steady pace but most of the time it is stable unlike bitcoin. So the choice is yours as an investor which one to go in for.
