investment and loss anticipation

[kryptqnick]

Talking about cryptocurrencies, of course, it doesn't rule out investing or stocks, in this case, of course we have to be careful in investing because investing also contains risks. The risk here is to lose funds or other assets when the investment does not live up to expectations or even fails. Yes, it is true that we cannot invest and then only expect profits without understanding the risk of loss, but to warn of all possible losses, what steps should we take?

Any investment involves risks, but the approximate risk can be higher or lower, depending on circumstances. Investing in gold, for instance, involves lower risks than ingesting in Bitcoin, but the latter is also associated with higher profits. I think that to assess the risks of crypto investments, one has to look at price charts of the chosen coin and other similar coins in terms of market capitalization. This can help understand how much can be lost and how fast. Another important note is basic safety of funds (where to exchange them and where to keep them) because losing funds due to scam is more unpleasant that losing them due to an investment.

Actually risk is always there in all kind of investments, but based on my experience, we can minimize our losses if we only invest in the coins that have a working product and services, just like Ethereum or even Binance, both coins are a good example because those coins have always a good demand in relation to their product and services offered we can mitigate the possible losses if we do it right. unless you are a risk-taker investing in newly created projects is also good but just make sure that you did a thorough research about it.

I'm just a simple speculation as someone who doesn't have any important role in my community. to me the reason that they hate Bitcoin, is because they don't want other people like ordinary people to have the opportunity to become millionaires in the simple step of owning Bitcoin. hasn't it been proven that since the existence of Bitcoin many new millions have sprung up and it has threatened their position as the richest people.

maybe the reasons I say can't be agreed, but for me Bitcoin has given a new atmosphere in our finances until now.

Can anyone prove we have short sellers and devaluations in this year's market, as it has happened in the past. It's correct? I'm thinking that some private banking institutions have great incentives to do that. and it will do the most damage from that consequence. Investing is about choosing and accepting challenges. I will follow it.

[Questat]

all form of investment is risky...can't change that. And only those who can afford to lose their money are much welcome.
Profit and Loss are the two things that we really have to expect here. No matter how careful you are, no matter how you do DYOR, nothing could assure that we are safe already because the truth is that we can't anticipate losses due to market volatility.

See to it that what you are investing with had some good history. i.e. Bitcoin, Ethereum.
If it's new then put it in your lists of high-risk investments. You should always be ready to pull it out no matter what. The number of times being monitored should also be high.
If it goes deep south, sell it without regrets and doubts. You put it on the high-risk list for a reason. There is no history to tell that it fluctuates back because it's new.
Plus, this is not the era of a possibility for that to happen unlike bitcoin's early years.

investing in crypto is very volatile and that's nothing new. but many people see this as an opportunity. and now the choice is how to choose the right coin for long term hold. all decide for yourself. if i prefer coin with top 5 in cmc . with daily trading. even though I am in a position have to hold because the asset is in a loss position im not afraid for hold it for a long time. Holding sounds easy if you believe in what you are holding.

[Ararbermas]

The first step is to learn how to make technical analysis every time you're planning to invest in a cyrpto currency wherein don't just rely on what you saw in the internet because crypto currency is known as a very unpredictable asset when it comes such way.  so stay away to those who share prediction and etc because they are not a fortune teller, must provide you own TA and compare it to others before you make a decisions so that at least you can obtain some idea or clue about the crypto you want to invest..

Holding assets that you have faith on it is a good decision to make, as long as you understand the full potential

of those projects, it's worth to wait, beside, there are many cases where holders really maximize the full benefits

of their investment, believing that it will bring them huge profits, good example of this is Bitcoin itself.

Everyone has to learn through their own mistakes, or ideally through learning not to repeat the mistakes of others in this world. Most people work very hard to build up any savings they have and want their money to be kept  at the least risk possible. One of the best ways to eliminate risk is through diversification and it requires having a strategy at the outset. While I don't think it applies in the same way to cryptocurrency, you can look at the stock market for an example of managing risk. If you own one stock, then you have extremely high risk and could lose all your money if that company goes bust, however if you own 40+ stocks then the risk drops substantially. You would also need to be diversified across sectors and not have too much in one company. E.g. maximum of 5% in any single company and a max of 10-15% in any one sector. There must be similar ways to operate in the cryptocurrency world or you may need to think outside the box in how to make a reasonable profit at minimal risk.

~what steps should we take?

read a lot and learn from experienced friends. knowledge is an important investment before we start investing money, because without knowledge... any amount of money will not bring big profits. so start by learning the science, learn the right strategy, use techniques that you understand the flow and can manage the worst risks.
the fatal thing is when we invest in something we don't know, it's like we enter the forest without bringing supplies and equipment.
Cryptocurrencies do offer a good opportunity to make a profit, but if you don't know the basics, you will easily get carried away. this has happened a lot lately, without knowing the risks, many new investors come because of FOMO and end up with losses.
let's control emotions and strengthen self-control, if you are ready to profit then you must be prepared to lose and to maximize that we must have a knowledge base.

[kawetsriyanto]

Basically, the thing that must be accepted is that we are fully aware and ready with the various risks and benefits that can be obtained from investing or trading cryptocurrencies.
Moreover, this is not an easy and simple thing.

And some anticipation that must be done there may be several things. As:
- Never invest in coins that are hype and involved in FOMO. Because this can make you just go along without thinking about whether the coin is good or not.
- Make sure to do some research before buying, because not all coins are fundamentally and technically good.
- make sure you use safe funds, in the sense that the money is not money for daily needs or savings, or urgent needs.

[Princejebs]

Crypto investment is still considered a highly risk move as form of investment since it's till base in mere speculation from here and there.
One has to be ready to accept whatever outcome of the market gives back at your investment, it may either comes in as a profit, huge profit, loss and huge loss. One you should be psychological and emotionally ready to accept the consequences and never should borrow money or loan to buy any coins.

[Expecto]

If we are aware of that we can lose even all of our money as well, then we shouldn't invest more than the amount we will not regret about. Otherwise, things could turn into a nightmare for us.

[adzino]

You are right over here. All form of investment has risks. If anyone offers you a risk free investment, then he is just trying to push you into his ponzi game or just straight lying to you. I mean, if someone offers you something that is too good to be true, then there is always a catch (read - "you are going to get scammed"). It's like you might think storing your money in a savings account will give you risk free profit. Nope. There is a risk of inflation taking over all your profits!

what steps should we take?

The first step is to see the risk reward ratio. You will then know if its worth taking the risk or not. Second, make sure you can afford the loss! If you plan properly, you won't be able to mitigate any risks, but you will be able to minimize the damage.

It is part of the game even experts are losing money and newbies without ample knowledge are hitting the jackpot, gambling is so much like gambling, but it's calculated gambling, even if you know what to look on a coin and everything seems to be in place you can still lose if it fails to market the products, the whitepaper is not attractive to investors and there's missing in the roadmap.

Before Investing one of the most important thing to know is that, investment are made with money which you can afford to lose and that should be money you won't be needing anytime soon, secondly do a good research before buying any coin in the crypto space, don't just buy any cryptocurrency because you see others buying it, always carry out a research to know the reason for buying that particular coin, there are other rules but these are the most important ones.

[lalabotax]

If you don't want to lose your money, don't invest in crypto. Because we know that crypto is too risky.
And if you really want to make an investment in crypto, ensure that you are ready for the risks.
Btw, if you don't want to take the high risks, why don't you only focus on top coins that have great fundamentals? And here, you can research some top coins that are worthy of long-term investment. But of course, for a long-term investment, I will really prefer BTC as the first choice and other top coins or tokens to be invested in.

and when you are talking about crypto investments, it is better to use your money that you really can afford to lose. as you are entering in a very high risk environment, you don't know if you will get out your money with profits or totally lose it.
and in terms of which alts or coins are you going to invest with, you should first check the background of the coin. and if you are a beginner, better start looking at the top 10/20 coins. and once you are diversifying your portfolio and expanding your list, you need to spot potential pnd coins, and avoid them at all cost. you can only get such notion once you are oriented in this market, and that would take time, not an overnight skill to acquire though.

[Bitcoinjheta]

It is important when you do an investment you have to accept risk that might happen in a near future so you should invest only your spare money. Make it sure before putting funds as investment you already have researched the coin and also make it sure that you have an action plan and strategies to be applied whether it is for short term, medium or long term.
