[ojotoyo10]

For beginners I think we should know the rise and fall of bitcoin and altcoin prices. because by knowing that factor we can prevent the loss that we will get.

Investing in new class asset is always risky. Because with small changes in markets like regulation updates and development progress affects badly and reflects huge volatility in price moments of assets. So it is very risky.

We are in the same era as what I spoke above in cryptospace.

I think it's not too risky to invest in cryptocurrency if you know how much money wants to use and you want to learn about cryptocurrency. I am sure that the risk will always be there but we can prevent the risk with our knowledge that we learn. the point is when you want to learn something, you can minimize the risk and you will make a profit in every section, not just in cryptocurrency.

I would ask: What is not risky? Everything is dangerous in some way, so there is some amount of risk in every single activity. Anyway, investing in cryptocurrencies is one of the riskiest ways "how to become rich". With so many altcoins and talented enthusiastic people you can not be sure which project is going to be successful in 5+ years. Furthermore, no one knows how will regulations influence the whole market and the progress of needs is a bit unpredictable. I am not saying that investing in crypto is a good or bad thing, but everyone should know that there is a big possibility of never getting your money back. If you are willing to take that risk, go for it, and some of us will not regret this decision. Is THAT person going to be me, or you, or your neighbor? No one knows the answer at the moment. That is why I like it even more  !

It's more than too much! The biggest thingh for a beginner is that they have no experience or knowledge about it! Experience is the main factor in investment because it helps a crypto user to know about which coin is good for long-term or short term investment. Expereince help us to know about a good project or which one is a scam project. In beginning, they can only invest in Ethereum or Bitcoin which is the most popular and trusted project.

the risk is that you can lose all of your money as there are so many scammers and shitcoins. the preacuations are that you can start trading with a virtual money for some weeks and than invest the real money just for experience.

In any kind of market risk is always there. Here in crypto most common risk are a lot of scam so be brilliant and smart,  think many times for us not to be scam.

Investing in crypto currency is very risky because the crypto market is so volatile therefore great caution is required and one the precaution you should is to learn more about the space before making your investment also invest what you are willing to lose

[Vinnyjrt]

Investing in crypto currency is very risky for newbies, especially for people with no experience in investing. Crypto is very volatile. It’s not uncommon for a coin to jump 150% in a day or fall 80% in a day. If you invested early in 2017, the chances are you made a profit if you held all year no matter how experienced you are.  On the flip side, if you invested at the very end of 2017 and held a couple months you probably lost. Bull runs along with bear markets are way more intense than Wall Street.  One safety factor to use is to spread your investments out into several different coins or projects.

[Neutrality]

In my opinion not only it is risky for beginners to invest in crypto. Moreover each investment is always risky. You just need to figure out your critical money amount which you are ready to lose. Because in another way you will make mistakes that will be based on you fear about losing your money.

The risk of investing in cryptocurrency I think is pretty big because every coin is very unstable and it's easy to get down and up. So if you want to invest in cryptocurrency then you should be prepared with the consequences you will receive. And do not ever complain if there is a decrease in your investment.

This is an investment with an uncertain return - which can be verified by its volatility far more than the more traditional modalities of variable income, as is the case of investment in stocks or even more liquid currencies like dollar, euro and the yen.

Theoretically speaking, it is 100% risk, because you can never predict the exact behaviour of the market. However, do not be afraid. When you are in crypto for a while, you are able to analyse the situation in a proper way and feel confident while investing.

It depends on your knowledge and skill. Some ICOs are potential groundbreakers while others will vanish sooner or later. You have to do your own research about them. Often there are signs of projects that can stand the test of time such as reputation of the owners, quality of the project, MVPs, etc.
