Bitcoin is not as risky as many think.

[hahay]

those who said btc is verry risky are those who never used btc before but we that are already familiar with btc we can say that btc isnt realy that risky with proper handling   . btc can be safer and can be dangerous at the same time if only ill compare it to other coins    .

safe because its legit and old but dangerous/risky because btc is the coin that can crash the most   . btc being legit and old age can attract users which makes its value grow up if its down or can even grow more if its in a good condition

If it is related to investment, value or anything that can crash then any investment has a value that is very likely to crash but in bitcoin indeed, the risk is greater because even a large decrease can occur in only a few hours or only overnight. I think every investment asset has its own risks so we cannot conclude if investing in bitcoin is something that is very risky, because when we never even have and use it how can we conclude if bitcoin is at risk, so the reasons for risk are greater because they are not in the right position and time to know and invest in bitcoin.

In my opinion, people who refuse to invest in bitcoin with reason of risk and volatile prices do not yet understand about bitcoin.
If you have really learned bitcoin correctly, then surely understanding volatile bitcoin prices is not a threat. But the benefits
which can be used to make a profit. With volatile bitcoin can generate profits in a more faster, compared with a stock market or
gold whose prices are relatively stable. All investments are at risk, so we must be able to face these risks. And for bitcoin the risk
is smaller if investing in the long term.

One of the main points many Bitcoin naysayers are quick to bring up whenever you question them on why they are so anti bitcoin is that bitcoin is ‘volatile and risky’. The truth is that Bitcoin is no riskier than any other asset and it may even be safer.

Here’s why Bitcoin is safer than most assets: https://www.cryptopolitan.com/bitcoin-is-safer-than-most-assets-stop-treating-it-as-risky/

What are your thoughts?

If we are to talk about investment then there is always a risk especially if you are going to trade but trading bitcoin or other assets with enough knowledge will lessen the risk of your investment. What makes your investment prone to risk is when you trade without enough knowledge because the possibility that your money will fade is pretty high.

If you want to trade safely the it is best if you will study it first, gather some useful resources on how to make your trade successful, make sure that you are not greedy and you should be patient.

Bitcoin does look bad to them because the media has been skirting opinions so that both bitcoin and cryptocurrency look bad because it only raises issues that are truly fatal to ordinary people. But apart from that bitcoin is also as risky as other investments but bitcoin risk is slightly smaller. That's my opinion

Don't know really. With public trust in media these days, I would actually say people are a bit more intelligent than we take them for, and they probably will ask themselves at some point if Bitcoin really is as bad as all the people responsible for taking the economy down are saying. I'd actually prefer people to see for themselves the misconceptions and misinformation that's spread about Bitcoin. Better than the shillfest that positive media headlines seem to be all about.

Bitcoin is now really dangerous because the coin is very easy to manipulate and the constant volatility of the market is making the situation more and more unpredictable. However, I still trust this coin because it is the safest coin in the crypto market and has spent more than half of my assets investing so I will definitely make a profit. Anyway this is my way of investment and I will definitely find more new investment strategies to make more profit.

Buying at all time high doesn't mean that you are losing money right now, it never meant that you are losing money. Going all-in at the all time high prices meant that you would be losing money, and even at that there are methods to be in profit as well.

Just to give two examples, one for people who didn't go all-in and for people who went all-in. For the people who didn't go all in, they could potentially buy more and more and more while price is dropping, that way they can drop the average purchase price and when their purchase average drops under the current price because it goes down and up, they will be in profit. If they went all in that means they could have still gotten out at a high price and go back in at a lower price and be in profit right now.

I think, a highly volatile market is a risky market, one has to monitor his/her position at all times, I believe investments are risky, bitcoin is more volatile, even though money is made in its volatility, it is still risky

[Akoldi_ibk]

I don't how other assets' performance are like, but the crypto market behaviour had shown that Bitcoin is riskier given its high volatility and no regulatory guidelines yet. If you are an investor, long or short term, it might be less risk, but ask a trader, and the story will be different.

Only if you are a trader, not an investor. If you look at Bitcoin by years it's not that risky because almost every year there's a rally that allows those who don't believe in it and feel stuck with a bag to unload. Like if you boutht high in 2017 the price hit 14 thousand 2 years later so if you were afraid that your coins bought for 10 thousand or more will not bring you sufficient profit that was your chance to exit.

Bitcoins safety is in these ups and downs. If you buy now and it falls down, in a couple months there will be an opportunity to break even or even profit due to the halving. Even if we fall to 3000 we will go back to 6 again after the halving.

But we can't deny that a lot of people would like to take the risk because they think that this could save them as many people we're saying that they gain profits easily and pretty fast. Yes, things may happen but it also depends on the market trend and the one handling their funds.
Gaining is what in our minds and it is obviously a reason why we are here in crypto not because it is a currency but for investment.

If we can recall what happened last 2017, people are greatly in having huge gains and crypto becomes viral on the internet. A lot of people are coming because of the surprise surge but after all, dumps come along and make a lot of people feel regret about their actions.

[Question123]

I believe too that bitcoin is more safe than the others investment right now but we know that they still have risl if we invest to this coin. But the good they have chance a good return or a lot of profit will gain of the bitcoin investors.

Bitcoin the price is changing gives to us profit because like today price is very low compared to the previous month so we can have time to grab this opportunitt to inves or buy this coin and to gain money in the future once it started rising again.

[LbtalkL]

From all of the cryptocurrency which do you think is the safest? Everyone can and knows the answer right away its Bitcoin. The safest asset to invest in cryptocurrency, being volatile is the nature of cryptocurrency from the start even in stocks. That is how traders earn by trading in this volatile market. More volatile the more chances of profits but there are more chances of losses too, that's how it works.

Its old but gold. Bitcoin is preferably a choice of everyone from cryptocurrency. Its built to be the number cryptocurrency in the world and all altcoins are depending on the move of Bitcoin. Looking the chat if the btc is red almost all of altcoins will drop to red keeping impossible to btc to defeat. Bitcoin is risky if someone are buying bitcoin in the higher price without proper introduction to crypto market. Some are being scam because of they immdiately trust to someone. Its safe but also risky.

[thisnewcoin]

Bitcoin is not risky at all, whoever thinks like that they have a lack of knowledge about bitcoin and blockchain technology. If Bitcoin is risky then which asset is safe? Every asset has risk, that's people say No risk No gain! It's true that volatility is a negative side of crypto, who bought at the very high price they are yet to recover, but if you have strong faith, then you must be known Bitcoin price will be greater than now! We can expect x4 from the current price of Bitcoin!

[koang]

"Volatile and risky" will continue to be campaigned by the global financial industry to inhibit the growth of Bitcoin
because they fear that Bitcoin will disrupt the business they have built so far

The main and most complicated problem faced by digital currencies is regulation.
If the problem with the regulator is over, it seems that an increase in the valuation of the crypto currency will be inevitable

Bitcoin is very risky for people who are unaware of the risks they will be taking. you saw that until a while ago the price was $ 10,000 and today the price is $ 6000. If someone bought bitcoin for the price of $ 10,000 and was not prepared to take the risk then that person must be very sorry. This movement that increases a lot and then falls a lot only benefits those who are psychologically prepared and have good knowledge about the market and know how to do good risk management

Bitcoin is not risky for everyone. Bitcoin is risky for those who buy Bitcoin after the huge pump. They do not buy when the market is down, but they only buy when the market goes to the top again. Yes the Bitcoin market is volatile, it is because Bitcoin is still new. It takes time for to mature.

[posi]

OP, you need to understand that people who are naysayer will constantly raise conspiracy about bitcoin and it either to been notice, cause panic or spread FUDs but they always do it for their own selfish reason. Besides, there also some set of people who'll never understand the concept of cryptocurrency because they are full of doubt and never take their time to see the brighter side of crypto currency.
With that been said, Bitcoin is not risky but people need to learn how it works to avoid the complicated part of it.

[samcrypto]

Investment without a risk is more on a savings and with bitcoin the risk is getter higher from time to time. A big chance to create big profit with bitcoin and that is because of a big risk in the market, so don’t think about an easy money. Bitcoin is very volatile and it can change the trend within a day, or even an hour so be prepared always for that.
