How risky to invest in cryptocurrency?

[jan.nicolas]

The risk is very large because these are crypto-currencies and they have very high volatility, today we can observe the volatility of bitcoins with you and many have a very persistent view that manipulators work in the market.

It depends into which ones do you invest IMO. If you invest into BTC you're pretty much risk free IMO. It works for 10 years without a hack on the core layer level.

There are risks, but you need to carefully select projects to track read forums

Cryptocurrency investment risks Very high, but behind the high risk, Cryptocurrency investment also gives hope for a huge profit. so in my opinion, the risks and results obtained when the investment in Cryptocurrency is balanced. if we want to invest, Cryptocurrency is an investment I highly recommend than investing in other fields, Gold and land are safer than Cryptocurrency, but the rise in prices is both too long, unlike Cryptocurrency which can go up very quickly.

Is brings a lot of risks if you invest the money that you need urgently and not your savings, but if you invest your savings and take advantage of the prices, of buying low and selling at a high price you should be just fine, also try to diversify your portfolio.

Normal people shall not risk heavier money than they could be able to have begone reasonably in altcoins since those staying volatile.

I would say that backers who buy into ICOs think that risk is huge for a period of time and after becomes limited after a couple of months.

[Tim2412]

to my mind it is very risky, because of several reasons:
1) risk to total loss due to your exchange account getting hacked.
2) volatilityis  of the trading
3) we don't know what the government might do in the future regarding regulations
4) the chances of buying into a scam is increasing with the introduction of a lot of junk altcoins designed to steal your BTC through direct trading of BTC to those coins.

Investing in crypto currency is very risky and one of the best precaution you can take when investing in crypto currency is to invest what you can afford to lose, don't put all your money into crypto currency also do your own research, it will help you.

such advice I hear everywhere and everywhere around the bitcointalk, But in fact any means is a pity to lose, because the person who earns with the help of crypto-currency, refers to this seriously, and not as to gambling.

That advice is very common for a very simple reason, while we all want to earn money we need to recognize that it is impossible for everyone to do so, someone needs to lose, money does not appear magically in the market, it appears because people choose to invest in cryptocurrencies and even if everyone wants to earn money the majority will lose, so you should only invest an amount of money you can afford to lose, there have been cases of people asking loans to friends or banks and they lost that money they asked and their own money and now they are in an even worse situation than when they began investing in this market.

I always ask my friends to imagine the following situation: get the money in your hands, come to the window, open it, and throw away as much money as you dare. If they're ready to do this, I'll tell them about the trade in this market. The main rule is to trade that money you're not afraid to lose!

[sexylady13]

Determine the time for monitoring the market, I think at least 3 months, during this time you can imagine how to act on the crypto market and not go bankrupt.

Excellent advice! Together with this, it's necessary to use small amounts and learn to trade by selling and purchasing any coins. Learning passes faster and better with "living" coins, I speak from experience!

Risk is always there in any investment that you are planning to make. Its not just the cryptocurrency, but everywhere, including real estate, bonds, debentures, etc.
The level of risk depends upon your understanding the in the investment market, if you are doing your research you can always minimize your risks by taking the correct actions on time.
The term you should actually use is how volatile is the cryptocurrency market and not how risky it is.

It is highly risky to invest in crypto if you are a beginner, i will not recommend it. As a beginner, there are a lot of things to be learned. let alone to join in the world of cryptocurrency requires a good knowledge, because if we haven't mastered it well then many risks that we will get, like you could get scam in choosing a none legitimate ico.

These are very risky investments. The crypto market is very not predictable, it is unsteady up down. It is very difficult to understand his further movements. In difference from traditional investments into crypto it is possible to earn very quickly, but also quickly everything can be lost.

[Alat2233]

this risky investment, the market can grow rapidly and can quickly fall, we saw a growth of tens of percent per day, this indicates that you need to be careful

[joseherrera04]

For a begineer it is kind of risky if you don't know where you're getting into, but once you find the right strategy then you could just call the market volatile and get used to it.

[ElizRu]

Well, if we talk about risks here, then either everything or nothing is possible. You can lose, but you can become rich very quickly. The risk factors are that no one knows how the market will be even after 1 minute, red or green. Luck.

[xvacator]

actually, risky or not it depends on how we can manage the risk itself. I don't think that if we have a skill in cryptocurrency, we cannot prevent from getting a big risk because we can use our skill to find a way if we feel that the risk is too big. for me, the risk is not a big problem and we should not think too serious while we have many ways to get out from the risk.
