What factors scare others from investing into bitcoin?

[Spontebob]

I will say people have their own opinion about bitcoin, maybe minor experiences of scammers going into it for their selfish reasons all these have contributed to people not having a thought to invest it scare people away a bit.. I guess when someone lacks information he is deformed all round

Scammers are popular nowadays so I definitely understand why there are bitcoin users who are afraid or having second thoughts about investing. Second one is the legality of bitcoin in a certain country, which is probably the most difficult thing to go against with. The last one is the unpredictable value of bitcoin.

Those who are afraid of bitcoin investing are usually less understanding about bitcoin, as well as the functionality and usefulness of bitcoin, and the benefits of bitcoin investing, or they are reading and hearing something negative about bitcoin, and it can also be banned by the state governments causing them to be afraid of bitcoin investing.

Bitcoin has come a long way and come really come to stay. As a matter of fact, anytime some people who know nothing about bitcoin are introduce to bitcoin about how bitcoin works, they channel all their attention to whoever is passing the information to them by listening attentively. However, after developing the interest in bitcoin, they quickly revert their interest in bitcoin the moment they hear of the volatile nature of bitcoin, thereby, deciding not to invest into it anymore. Guys, what are some other factors that scare people from investing into bitcoin?

The factors scare others from investing into bitcoin for me is that the price of it because it decrease unexpectedly and they are scared that someday it will become zero and bitcoin will totally gone.

in my opinion, especially in my country bitcoin is prohibited by the government, so therefore many people are worried to trade with bitcoin, plus bitcoin has an unstable price, and there is no clear law against this bitcoin.

The number one factor is Bitcoin's volatility. When you introduce bitcoin to a new person, you're gonna tell them the positive sides before the negative one. You got their interest at first but when you're gonna tell them the negative side, look at their disappointed faces. Because all of us here should take the risk of losing. They must know that being included in the cryptoworld isn't easy as they think. There are times that you need to hold and wait, there are times you win, and there are times that you'll lose but it depends on the situation. This is only one factor that scares most of us, especially the newbies or the beginners.

Yes I agree with this statement. One of the main factors why other people are scare from investing in bitcoin is because of its volatility. The market value could pump and dump in just a snap, making it riskier than bank investment.

In my own opinion, the scariest factor on cryptocurrency is just taking risk, always remember that the risk will be always depending on how much investment you have made because the market is volatile.

[Cryptogid]

What most people fear in investing in Bitcoin is the various scam that has occurred severally with online money related cases,with the likes of MMM,ponzi schemes,and it has no legal binding, then most persons are capitalist,they want to see their money work for them..

[cryptozian]

I believe the most common factors why people scares from investing is the market price volatility because  the market can easily drops value without valid explanation and  its very hard to predict its movement.

[Drakula]

I believe the most common factor that scares them are the brand of authenticity, is it trustworthy? Also if others find out there's money in here, they would say its a scam and your identity are being stolen now. Its just they are afraid of things that might get them in trouble.

[hollymoolly]

Bitcoin is very secured in terms of the security but the price volatility is the biggest fear of the investors which keep think twice to invest or not before bitcoin.

[Ikpirijor7]

There are so many factors that makes it, Potential investors loses interest in investing bitcoin because the mainstream media is spreading news that bitcoin is nothing but a ponzi scheme so those with only little knowledge of bitcoin easily believes it and avoids it. Another main factor is volatility we all know that btc is very unstable currency but you can also capitalize from it unlike in the stagnant stock market.

[mockcooleat]

Negative news about scam and issues about security of crypto currency. In addition with the government not supporting it and not acknowledging it within the financial system are top reasons for me why people would not invest into bitcoin and crypto currency. For something very new even if we are already on a digital age it would be very hard for people to trust it and invest to it.

For me, the media and the lack of knowledge of people is the reason why people are scared investing in Bitcoin. There are some "Bad news" about Bitcoin that will appear on TV/social media, then people will now have a bad perspective to Bitcoin without researching and knowing it. Volatility can be another reason why people are afraid to invest to Bitcoin due to its unpredictable price.

[Zainal-baguz]

because they lack experience about the bitcoin digital world. and invest without anyone leading eventually after they invest only losses until they are scared and no longer want to invest in bitcoin .

[Nabobs Robi]

There are several factors but one of them that makes people reluctant or afraid to invest in bitcoin is the government ban to legalize bitcoin in the country, this makes people think hard to jump in bitcoin. What i see as the reason for people getting discouraged in investing in bitcoin is the thinking that the price may keep going down and as a result their investment will be lost. This can mainly happen to the people who have no knowledge of how bitcoin works.

[KenChanYu]

Well I think some people are afraid to invest in bitcoin because maybe one of them it is still not legalized bitcoin in the country plus maybe there are still many people who do not know what is bitcoin so they still doubt

It's high-volatility is what I considered the biggest factor that cause people not to invest in Bitcoin. Bitcoin is not stable since its price keeps on fluctuating uncontrollably  and unpredictably. They don't realize how valuable and profitable bitcoin is, they're too focused with negativities over positive views and thoughts. Aside from this, they are also afraid if it's a scam. There's nothing wrong about protecting our privacy and be vigilant, but sometimes we also need to take risks to grow and evaluate our strengths and weaknesses.

[libratiz]

I think that the biggest fear of newcomers is that they won't be able to cashout the funds back after they invested in and turned out to be in a profit.
We should focus on showing the features of bitcoin- including the fact that no one is able to revert a transaction after it has been sent( which is sometimes make newcomers to fear because unlike traditional cash they won't be able to call their bank later and to cancel the payment in case they realize that they got scammed).

• The current problem with cryptocurrency is that its price is very unpredictable. Today the price is high the tomorrow it’s down. Due to this investors are scared to invest because they cannot predict how the market will behave. Even with Bitcoin having been working well you cannot still term it stable.
• The talk of Ponzi scheme has existed for some time. I personally don’t think Bitcoin is a Ponzi scheme and even putting it in the same sentence with the word Ponzi looks like an insult. This is because all major futures companies like CBOE and CME are ready to offer Bitcoin futures. There obvious risks of investing in Bitcoin. This is due to scammers who always want to take advantage of investors. These scammers create Ponzi schemes that promise higher returns only to run away with the investment making people think that Bitcoin is a scam.
• When Bitcoin has hacked, it’s always news, and it spreads very fast. This news scares potential investors off. Hackers have targeting Cryptocurrencies, and currently, the field is the 8th most targeted in the world. In most cases when there is hacking it’s very hard to recover the stolen Coins.

Volatility is the main reason that scaring the investors whether they or old or new investor if they came here just to make money from the bitcoin.

[alexs_03]

The people who spread some negative news about bitcoin also affects its target investors since many of them are carried away and are scared to risk their money in bitcoin. As an amateur investor, and hold and sell , hold and sell
