Is the entire Crypto Market ever likely to be Scammed?

Bitcoin is not a scam, and Bitcoin is the coin with the largest share of marketcap.

There are other coins that are highly unlikely to be a scam. But that alone doesn't make them good investments. And also there's no such thing as "safe" crypto investment, because all crypto is highly volatile, has unclear fundamentals, problems with adoption, regulations etc.

I don't think that entire crypto is a scam. There are many scam projects or investments in the crypto world. But it doesn't mean that the entire crypto world is a scam. If the entire is a scam, it means that Bitcoin is also a scam. It is not.

We cannot deny that many scams in the crypto world. But we also still have many legit projects especially Bitcoin, and some trusted altcoins. Although nobody guarantees that they will not turn out to be scammed. But at least, I still believe in crypto (certain crypto) so far. How much do I believe? I believe it as much as I am here since 2017 in the crypto world. But, it is not enough with only trust. we must be smart and careful when investing in crypto because crypto is high risk. So we must be careful in what cryptos we will invest in and how to invest carefully.

If you're referring to altcoins then probably they're most likely scam.
Most altcoins were created just for the benefits of the creator nothing excess though they're still a few of them that still has good utility but most of them a shitty. So if you're considering only them aside from Bitcoin then I have no issue with it at all.

I won't advice anyone to pour his/her hard earned money into crypto. Only invest money that you can afford to lose, you never can tell what will happen to the market tomorrow, the market might be looking great today but can turn to a nightmare overnight.

From dictionary.com

A scam is a deceptive scheme or trick used to cheat someone out of something, especially money

You'd only ever consider the entire crypto scene a scam if you ever tried to enter it without knowing anything. There are some crypto projects that are scams, obviously, just like any other industry (but more rampant here I guess), but that doesn't mean that the entire place is a scam, especially if you consider the biggest name in here which is Bitcoin. Wouldn't conside that a scam since "scamming" would require someone to be on the "opposite" party, Bitcoin doesn't have that, but other projects do.

No, not really. The place is highly volatile, I don't think you should invest everything in it. Maybe a part of it, one that you're willing not to spend for a long time, specifically investing it on Bitcoin.

This is exactly what regulators are striving for now, which has put spokes in the wheels for the development of the crypto industry. Sow panic and debunk the hopes of investors, thereby proving that banks are still the only protection for clients' assets.
Stories of the collapse of exchanges and various attacks on Binance play into the hands of regulators. Involuntarily, thoughts arise that all events were pre-planned.
Despite this, many people who have been through difficult times continue to believe in Bitcoin. Trusting other cryptocurrencies, except for Bitcoin, of course, is a thankless task. Now is not the best time to take rash risks.

At least we have Bitcoin, if all other crypto projects turned scam one day Bitcoin will probably be the only one standing still, but right now crypto projects are gearing up with ISO***** which will easily open a pass way for massive payment option in future.

My advice for you is to always treat crypto investment as a risk one, do not put all your eggs in one basket and also make sure that BTC is one of the coins you have in your holdings.

It would be too ironic if I will say that all altcoins are a scam because I'm holding some altcoins too. I will just say that altcoins are more likely to be a scam than Bitcoin is.
Faith? I don't have at all.

Crypto world? Safely Store? Hard-earned Wealth?
You know that crypto is more volatile right than other assets, right?

Crypto world isn't bank and don't consider crypto as an alternative. If you are a conservative investor, just put your money into bonds or just put it into bank if you want your money to devalue because of inflation. You also said, "hard-earned wealth". Are you ready if the worst thing happens to your hard-earned wealth? If it goes down 60-70% or even more, are you ready for it? Will you not panic? If yes, then put it, but it isn't recommended. I don't want to put all of my wealth into crypto.

[Getmon]

I am certain that the cryptocurrency market is genuine. However, this does not mean that there are no dubious projects or coins, as there are in conventional fiat investments and projects. To begin, you should stick to bitcoin and research the top 100 coins.

I would say that I currently have 80% invested in cryptocurrency. Centralized wallets and exchanges, like banks, are susceptible to closure and bankruptcy. Always keep in mind that it is not your coin unless you hold the keys.

If a scam for all Altcoins is impossible. But there are unscrupulous coins who are scams, it really depends on the developer. But like bitcoin, etherium and bnb I don't think so.
we can see Why altcoins go with Bitcoin in price. Even though each altcoin has its own fundamentals.

I can feel how you feel, crypto is a risky asset. So the point is if crypto really gets big profits why should we be greedy. you can buy some of the money you have in crypto for an amount ready in case it is lost.

The entire crypto industry cannot be a scam. We have bitcoin and other well-known cryptocurrencies that have established themselves as legitimate investments. I do not fully trust the crypto industry.

Don't try that, to avoid stories that touch the heart. It is not wise to invest your hard-earned money in the risky realm of crypto. Invest only the amount in cryptocurrency that you can afford to lose gladly without breaking down in tears.

Your questions sound somehow new to me and I know this is the kind of questions most people used to ask me when they hear about cryptocurrency for the first time. Most persons can be skeptical on how the market moves and sometimes they tend to ask questions about whether the cryptocurrency market can be hacked or not. I think op need to read some books and PDF about the crypto market and Bitcoin entirely so that he can have some ideas on how the market do works and operate.

There are some newbies too who had been pondering on this kimd of questions on how the crypto market works but they can get accurate explanation if they can read some posts here about Bitcoin and cryptocurrency market.

[royalfestus]

I like the idea of the OP not mentioning bitcoin but cryptocurrency. It gave a wider range of discussion and understanding. I find the growth of stable coin a massive backup for the space. The stable coin by BUSD and USDT is back up by fiat in dollar by American bank and treasury bill.

Yeah, just invest into Bitcoin and forget about that you invested to it and surely you'll be surprised that one day, you could just cash it out for millions in USD depending on where you live. Researching for coins out there is already a pain in the ass and a true headache. It is like another full-time job that you need to do even if you're intended to do it just a part investment and end up being disappointed because you were deceived by paid reviews/shills.

This was at least my learnings back in 2018.

I have a lot of faith in bitcoin as the creator of the entire cryptocurrency world. If he believed in it and it has thrived up to this point, I have no objection to it surpassing its current state in the future.

Cryptocurrency is just an alternative to store money just like your local fiat bank. Because of its nature of volatility, it’s advisable not to keep all your wealth there. You could store or invest some in it in order to gain the benefit in the long run. Only invest what you’re willing to lose or rather you leave the investment aspect of it.

personally,q I have something near the 0 as trust in crypto world. I don't trust other crypto project... in the long term these will run to have a meaningless value, and only few projects (maybe) could survive.
Its completely different if we are talking about bitcoin because I have trust in bitcoin and in the blockchain related to bitcoin.

I think people can store their wealth in bitcoin but only at condition they understand what is it this technology, how it works and what is the advantage/disadvantage of a solution like this.

Bitcoin is a good investment but knowing how risky it is, it would be wiser to just invest on the amount you can afford to lose. No matter how profitable it is, I don’t still see any guarantee that bitcoin is a secure investment, more especially for altcoins as most of them particularly those newly built projects are only good for short term duration, and after that most of them end up as scams.

There is no guarantee that they are not a scam. but I still believe that the entire crypto market is a scam. There are several trusted platforms that already have a sustainable reputation. However, because there are no guarantees, we must always be vigilant with the worst possibilities one day. In this case, we must have several strategies that can at least be used in normal times, worsening conditions, and worst situations. Because this is indeed our choice to be in the crypto business, so we must be prepared for all the risks. However, if we are able to take a loyal chance at the right time, this crypto business is really tempting and worth fighting for.

[Sheaila]

Yah. Everything could be a scam, even long lasting businesses could regardless of how legit they were at the start. It's just more prevalent in crypto since a lot of people are new to it, or are beginners in terms of understanding what and what is not a scam, so it's much more obvious. I don't have any faith in the crypto world, I have faith in the fact that my Bitcoin are safe in my hardware wallet instead.

I'd honestly avoid crypto to put your wealth in, it's volatile, risky, it's an investment that you go to when you're ready to lose whatever you put in. There's probably a lot more other investments out there that are relatively safer. Ofc profits drop off but that's the payment for being safer compared to crypto.

No. Your funds security depends upon you unlike traditional finance where bank holds money for you.

[sunsilk]

1. How can be the entire crypto market be a scam if there's a use case mostly now for bitcoin and other considered altcoins. Huge institutions have invested coming from millions to billions of dollars and yet, you're thinking that it might be a scam.

Well, there goes the projects that really are scams but not the entirety of the crypto market.

2. I have 100% faith on this market and mainly for bitcoin.

3. Choose a crypto first where you're going to store your hard earned money but the best option is, bitcoin.
