Is it possible to lose all your money invested Bitcoin in 2021?

[farhanabd88]

Its not likely to possible to lose all your money invested in bitcoin 2021 because its not possible to destroy bitcoin. The price of Bitcoin can ups or down its entirely depend on people attitude means how positively people accept or reject bitcoin. Also there are some economical term related to price movement that is supply and demand. Actually total supply of bitcoin is fixed at 21 million so if demand increase then price of bitcoin automatically grow. One the other hand bitcoin is more volatile but if nobody wants to accept Bitcoins as a payment any more then it will be worthless and possible to destroy. But this is not likely to happen in the case of Bitcoin because already lots of payment method is available for accepting bitcoin. So what is your opinion regarding this topic let us learn your valuable information.

It's always theoretically possible not only with Bitcoin, but with any other asset. You could wake up tomorrow and find US dollar worthless, because the US was nuked by China or Russia. Or maybe a huge gold asteroid will fall on Earth and make gold worthless. Or maybe all governments in the world will ban Bitcoin and it will crash by 99.9%. But the probability of such events is so low that it's pointless to worry about them.

Bitcoin though can easily fall much lower than the current price, so if you don't have strong hands, or if you can't afford to lose money because you have debts or some other necessary spendings, then buying Bitcoin now is not the best idea.

You can lose a lot if you bought it recently and willing to sell or already did it. Everything can lose it's value because of unexpected reasons. But i think right now is a pretty good time to buy it, but it might get even cheaper. Anyway i believe that in long term BTC will be back on 60k and even higher.

[dimonstration]

We don't lose unless we sell it. The market will still be able to recover in it's due time. If we sell at these rate then we were probably at lose especially if we bought it during it's high. Those who invest earlier this 2021 probably already earned or at stake of losing if they didn't do stop loss. However we can still wait till the price recover.

Of course, it's possible that if you buy for $55k and sell now, you'll be at a loss - and many choose to make the move because they're afraid of losing even more. Therefore, there is always a high risk of looking for a profit in the short term, while those who enter in the long term have a much better chance of completely avoiding such traps.

Imagine someone who invested in BTC 5 years ago or maybe 3 years ago - he is certainly not in a panic, even if he invested again in 2021 - just because he already realized that in the long run no one has lost by investing in Bitcoin. Of course, we cannot plan for the future only on past events, but they can be our guidelines to some extent - as long as we stick to the rule of investing only what we are willing to lose.

If you are leveraged then its a yes, and the likelihood is proportional to your leverage factor

Not leveraged - you *should* be good. (with all the usual caveats discussed over the years).

The other thing to consider is whether you have them on exchange - that also adds risk.

No matter what year, it will always be. No one knows what will happen in the future.

So what is your opinion regarding this topic let us learn your valuable information.

My opinion always is to read, do research then decide on your own so you will not blame anyone if you ever lost your money and if ever you will not lose, you will be proud of yourself.
Let's say if you will not invest "all" your money, then you could not lose your "all" money. That's why not going all-in always is never a bad choice.

When emphasising losing investment capital via Bitcoin, i think this have to come in two dimensions which suppose to break down or have clarified explanation.

(a) investment method, whereby a bitcoin is been purchased and hold for long period of time, and when bitcoin depreciates in price or market, it's obvious that the values of btc will drop, and that is not a criteria for you to lose all the btc, because you can only lose your bitcoin all when there is no longer existence of cryptocurrency.

(b) trading investment method, it's here I Know vividly that the possibility is there for someone to lose he or her invested capital, because trading is like advance form of gambling, the probability of making a profit is not guaranteed or sure for a trader, so in this scenario bitcoin used for investment can equally be lose without been redeem.

In summary it's possible to lose and it's possible to gain this year, it depends the area of concentration via investment.

[BrewMaster]

yes it is and very easily too.
nowadays there are a lot of people who are too blinded by the bitcoin price rise or its recent fall that they forgot to learn how things work before they jumped on board. these people usually become victims of fake wallets, phishing scams, or generally get hacked and lose all their money.

from your post it seems like you are too focused on the price also, you may already be a victim like that specially since you seem to be too busy applying for different signature campaigns.

Unless you are trading futures markets that could liquidate all your assets and your portfolio, it's not possible. You could be wiped out of ~80% of the portfolio value if you don't take stop losses or hedge with the right asset, but it's technically hard to lose everything in the spot market.

I don't think there's anything valuable information that can be given to you that you don't already know. It's common knowledge already.

As long as you do not sell your bitcoin, you will not lose all of your money because when you buy 1 bitcoin at $40k and the price is down to $30k, your 1 bitcoin will still 1 bitcoin and it is never change and only the value will change. The value of 1 bitcoin will always change from time to time. There is a chance for bitcoin to increase. It can be back to $40k or $50k or even $100k in the future.

So let say you bought bitcoin at $20k in 2017-2018 and hold it until January-March. You can see the value of bitcoin will change from the lower price to the high price and the peak was at $64k.

And related to the store accepting bitcoin, it can increase more than now as the bitcoin popularity grows this year to attract more store to accept bitcoin.

The only people that can lose money from investing in bitcoin are the traders. In all other applications, bitcoin is equally useful regardless of its price.

Actually total supply of bitcoin is fixed at 21 million so if demand increase then price of bitcoin automatically grow.

Not the total circulation supply because based on the CMC, it's 18.7 million Bitcoin at the moment and it might the rest of 21 million are in locked wallets or lost private key that will never open anymore.

It's impossible to turn out zero value your Bitcoin investment, that will never happen of course.  There's no way to even a 50% loss in your portfolio because Bitcoin was always mattered on the demand and supply, not likely if the whole;e world demand total banning of Bitcoin which is on every dark side compared to Bitcoin adoption which is now we will see that has started in most countries especially in the third world countries.

As long as you will never sell, it's unlikely that you will lose all your money.  If you invested 1 Bitcoin, it will always remain 1 Bitcoin in your wallet.  Considering, no loss at all.

Not only that you can simply hold and not sell and wait for it to go back up (which means eventually when it goes over 64k ATH price everyone will profit) but you could also buy right now at lower levels and drop your average purchasing price which would allow you to profit easier.

I have a lot of friends who came to bitcoin in 2017 peak periods and I met them on telegram and over the years seen them buy more and more at lower levels, even as low as under 4k levels, and they dropped their average to 8k by the end all the way from 20k, some of them sold back at 20k instead of waiting which was a shame, some of them sold even earlier when they profited but I know a few who still hold their bitcoins, so long story short as long as you keep holding and buying cheaper in the end you will end up profiting or profiting quicker those are the only options.

You cant lose it literally because it will always vary with the monetary value and that would basically depending on the demand and support it has this is why its a bit hard to believe on that Bitcoin value could drop in zero in an instant.Nothing do last forever though but when it comes to potential then
we cant really just deny on how on demand Bitcoin was but this thing is never been a guaranteed thing so if you've been worrying about losing investment
with bitcoin then always remember that only invest on the amount that you could afford to lose.Nothing is guaranteed here and that should you put up into your mind.

That is the smart move, anyone can assure you that you will  not loose a single dime in Bitcoin unless you less off due to panic and high volatility in the market. May be you have seasoned trading friends who knows what they are doing and so is the reason they averaged the holdings they had, the problem is majority who jump into the market have no experience in any sort of trading and those are the ones that mess up huge.

Unless you trade in the options market there is no way anyone loose dime in the Bitcoin market.

When you doesn't have the patience then losing happens very easier. With cryptocurrency we need to have the mind to take risk. We won't get anything notified, the market will vary drastically in no time. We're supposed to be prepared with different plans to make our portfolio stay without much downward deviation. This is possible, when we think about long term plans. We should also have the mind to take the capital and reinvest the profit. Some out of greed keeps investing for short term profiting which won't work as we predict.

That's the basics of investing, it's either you make money or you lose money.

However, based on the trend of bitcoin, there's always a time that it will be bearish, but eventually, it will recover and the market will be bullish again.
you know what will make you lose your money, that's when you panic and sell at a loss, that's the simple explanation.

Once you invest in bitcoin, you need to trust its future and you have to understand volatility.

Exactly. The bitcoin market is the most volatile investment in the world. The bitcoin price often goes up or down wildly. As a result, investing in bitcoin is very risky.
However, in our debt-driven society, it is the financial system's best defense against what will be a relentless bull market for bonds and stocks.

That's the basics of investing, it's either you make money or you lose money.

But the question is, it is possible to lose ALL your money that invested in bitcoin. My answer is no.
I guess when there is a huge dump of the price, the value of your investment will reduce and that is the start you may think that you have lost your money. But in fact, it is not, if you can wait further longer more when the market price went up, for sure you will have a profit.

Investing in bitcoin is not a short period of time, if you have invested in 2021, just wait even at least 4 years when another halving will come and have an effect on the market, I have doubted that it will create again another new ATH in the future. So, losing all your money is quite impossible.
