Would you rather make your investments in FIAT or CRYPTO?

[Bitcoinpoly]

Did you mean you rather have an establishment where your many is working regularly to generate profit? Crypto investment is one of the best alternatives though. Mostly when the volatility is on the advantage side it’s definitely going to bring huge profits.

And huge losses.
Crypto trading is similar to any other forex trade. Leverage goes both ways.
You want to invest and loose all go ahead.

If you invest with loses in mind you need to go the road of real estate, Metals, etc..

I understand you anyways real estate is a good investment but you need to understand that it’s not everyone that loss while investing in crypto.

[Faisal2202]

This is a good side, obviously we all know there are lots of profits in crypto investments than fiat investments in banks. All we just need to do is to invest at the right time.

Indeed, we have to invest at the right time, but one could also say that if we get to know that the time is right then why would we not gamble at that time and make quick and easy money which we might not make in crypto? So, in simple words, we cannot time the market, but we can take measurements according to our analysis and can minimize our risk.

Risk management is full of different techniques to take pre-cautions while investing money but we can also take pre-cautions at gambling.

What I was trying to say here is, that we cannot do technical and fundamental analysis in gambling but we can do that in Crypto, in simple words, we don't have gambling charts, or past data on which we can perform our strategies to get something useful to be used in future for more profits.

The crypto market has an high level of volatility, anyone who is about to make an investment need to have a good understanding of the volatile market. Now the question is even with the volatility will you still choose crypto over fiat when it comes to making investments?

Investment in crypto indeed needs to have a good understanding of the market's volatility. Aside from that, there are things to consider and understand, like investing in crypto can give you high returns while supporting the future of technology (its function), the mechanism of the exchange system in crypto, or those basic needs, especially including the way on how to secure your investment. Most people here know that. And I can say that I prefer investing in crypto, though you didn't specify what kind of investment you compare crypto in terms of Fiat. However, if it's in real estate, I would rather invest in both.

I like your point here, everyone investing in crypto need to DYOR and have a good understanding of the volatile market.

of course yes. i prefer crypto compared to fiat for my investments. with crypto i can get an roi that is tens of times higher than what fiat offers. after all, what can you gain by holding fiat and making it your investment? its value may decrease along with the economy, while crypto you can see how it has grown significantly in recent years and investing in crypto is much more promising.

Great 👍🏼, which of the crypto investments did you have currently?

[Bitcoinpoly]

Investment in cryptocurrency will be profitable and there is no need to make investment in fiat because its a type of saving not investment. But we can also not agreed with the thoughts that all cryptocurrency is good for investment because there are lots of coins arised which did not give any reward to its holders but diminish after collecting money from large number of individuals.

Bitcoin is the first priority in crypto market which is suitable option for investment and there are also lots of other coins like Ethereum and BNB which can provide you an increased outcome. If one person hold successful crypto coin and other person hold fiat then crypto holders will be benefited in future but fiat holder will not gain much benefit as it does not increase in worth.

Regardless of the ones you’re investing on you still need to have a good understanding of what you’re into and also you should try to choose a good exchange where you will make your investments.

Poor economic policies has made my local fiat to be losing its value against the US dollars, and two weeks ago the Nigerian naira fell to the lowest level ever. Judging from the body language of the current administration, I'm not convinced enough that the policies they've mapped out can revive the naira. For that reason, I choose to have more of my savings in cryptocurrency (preferably stablecoins and Bitcoin). This will give me the opportunity to sell at the current exchange rate whenever I've need for cash since the value of naira is steadily declining.

This is equally another good reason why we should rather invest in crypto than fiat. May I know if you have any particular form of investment you’re currently into within the crypto space apart from holding stable coins and BTC?

Currently one of the problems of people right now is inflation, if you make an investment in the banks or the fiat currency the price of your asset might get lower due to it, in cryptocurrency you are getting a ride with the market volatility, and your asset has a chance to gain profit or to lose depends on the price action movement, still an ideal move is to invest in asset that possibly giving a good cashflow so you don't need to get worried with your fiat or even in crypto. Only the time frame, price and the risk matters here.

We all need to understand that fiat devalues over time, therefore crypto investment has high potential of yielding good profit than fiat bank investments, you just have to do a proper research and understand the market, also take advantage of some exchanges with good APR in order to earn while you’re still holding your investments.

Hello @Bitcoinpoly, you don't need to reply the individual posters of your thread the way you did because the mod would see it as spam and merged all replies as one. Next time, just qoute and reply to all users in a single post.

I've invested in altcoins but the results have not been too good. For now the ones that I'm holding unto are ETH and monero. But bitcoin is the real deal and if you can buy and hold long term, your investment is certainly going to yield good results.

There isn't next time, just @Bitcoinpomy merge all your replies in 1 post otherwise you will get flagged by users here.. It isn't two successive posts to just alert OP but 5 successive posts..
Back to the question: I made here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5254959 a real and quite long experience about investment in Bitcoin and posted each week or so the real price in USD and mentioned in some posts the variations of the price...etc
It might help people to get a better idea about investing with cryptocurrencies.
For investment in FIAT, we all know that the funds will increase but inflation will increase too and it is about which one will increase more. For example, a 5% ROI with 10% inflation = loss even if the funds increased because simply you pay much to buy the same product. In cryptocurrencies there is an additional factory that's the price rise comparing to FIAT that will determine the most your gain.

Bitcoin is the right deal for long term investments, because history has shown consistent results along the years, while with altcoins the scenario is pretty unstable, as an outstanding altcoin today which is on top 10 rank of crypto market may fall considerable to top 50 or 100 positions after few years. Meanwhile, we have the assurance Bitcoin will be still performing on top 1, unbeaten by any of its pairs.

That is the comparison between Bitcoin and altcoins, but when we compare Bitcoin to fiat, the advantages for Bitcoin are even more impressive, as no fiat currencies show positive results on long term, as they are easily devalued by inflation. Even investments in fiat currency have shown negative profitability against inflation, therefore it should be completely avoided. If someone is willing to invest in something else besides Bitcoin, they should look for lands, properties or assets, but never fiat!

What you need to know is that all investments have risks and that cannot be avoided. For me, Bitcoin is still the best investment choice compared to real estate.

The difference is huge because real estate is not fungible, meaning if you choose poorly, you could end up in failure or a money hole. Unlike Bitcoin, it is fungible, meaning that one Bitcoin is the same as another Bitcoin in all respects. Real estate is the most visible asset you can own, so if the government wants to tax you more, they can raise property taxes. Worse yet, they could simply stop it.

To withstand this volatility and protect capital, any investor must have sufficient experience, risk management, and deal with technical and fundamental analyses to determine the correct time to buy and sell. Beginners who lack adequate experience and knowledge can keep fiat money until they gain enough experience and a good understanding of the market. Or that they initially invest an amount in Bitcoin that they can afford to lose, even if we assume $100, which is sufficient. There is no doubt that investing in cryptocurrencies, specifically Bitcoin, the most reliable currency on the market, is better than fiat money for many reasons, including the vast profits that any investor can reap in the long term. Even placing fiat money in banks or investing it in any business will be useless compared to Bitcoin returns, which have no limits and are significantly superior.

"To understand the crypto market and its volatility" is the most crucial factor. Knowing this would alert investors to the fact that not all crypto investments will be able to withstand the crypto market volatility and maintain a high price, as bitcoin does. Due to the volatile nature of crypto, several altcoins have vanished from the crypto market because of it 

Just being aware of this issue would let an investor distinguish between investments to make and those to avoid, particularly those involving altcoins.

Now the question is even with the volatility will you still choose crypto over fiat when it comes to making investments?

Yes, I will. If it is to choose bitcoin over fiat. But if it is for altcoin over fiat, I will choose fiat instead of altcoin

[Dr.Bitcoin_Strange]

The question is, will I choose Bitcoin over Fiat? The answer is yes, I will. Bitcoin halving happens every four years which normally result to a bull season for Bitcoin, if perhaps I have Fiat that I am full awear I am saving for the future and I am not going to need the money in the next four or five years, then I would rather hold in Bitcoin than Fiat, reason is that before that five years would be up the Fiat might have depreciated in value and inflation on the price of goods might have also spike, but if i hold the money in Bitcoin, I definitely will make profit and I can also exchang the Bitcoin to any Fiat I want that currently have good value and if I have a dollar or pounds bank account, I can as well deposit in any of the currency in exchange to, which I can further exchange in the bank to my local currency at a higher rate to my local currency.

Yes. And that's the reason why I am still here. Because if I don't like volatility and I have chosen fiat over it then there's not that much change at all.

That's how it should be when you invest in crypto because you understand that it is highly volatile and it's not going to be the same as fiat that don't have much move at all but quick in inflation increase rate.

But there are some investments in fiat that are also good, so why not take both sides so you understand both worlds of investing in crypto and fiat?

Bitcoin's fluctuates, huh? Certainly has its glory and gutters. Well said regarding the misinformation. And sAnd scams do exist, so the skepticism isn't unwarranted. But, oh man, many, including me, go from doubter to advocate

Your strategy for enlightenment, not coercion, is key. It's like giving a lost person a map - they may not take it, but it's worth trying, right? Ignorance promotes misinformation. Plant knowledge seeds and watch them grow with patience and sun

Suggestions? Continue talking, maybe share stories. There are stories about actual people turning crypto into real money, not simply data and stats. Have you noticed how people listen when money talks? Maybe they'll listen if we speak their language. Let's keep breaking myth and fact, fear and trust. Keep going

You’re on track actually, there is a need for a lot of experience honestly if you’re investing in crypto. But crypto investments pay more than fiat, I’ve been using Bitget Shark fin and it has been more beneficial than that of fiat.

Now the question is, even with volatility, will you still choose to make your investment in fiat through bank savings with regular monthly interests or rather make your investments in crypto where you hold your asset and still have the opportunity to save and make monthly interest?

I chose both of them because it was a good thing to do as it was too risky to just put our money solely into a single form of investment. But I put more on fiat investment over crypto even though we think that crypto investment is profitable because of its safety assurance. I don't save money in the banks either as I use them for investment, maybe just for now while still working on it and keep on growing.

Anyways, we have to choose the kind of investment that we have the knowledge and we think that we can manage it properly as this will be our assurance for success.

Same to you, I always stick to diversification method and I absolutely invest on both as long as I have my money to invest since both of them is doing good and every investment always comes with risk that's why it's better to not put all your eggs in one basket. When it comes to stability, I agree that fiat is far more stable than bitcoin.

Fiat is money issued by the government of a country that is used for everything in that country, so holding fiat is not an investment.  But crypto is a digital currency so investing here has a lot of potential.  I am definitely interested in investing in crypto and I have been involved and invested in crypto for a long time.  The value of fiat money is starting to decrease day by day against the dollar but even if the price of crypto goes down it recovers again and profit is possible from here so of course crypto is much better than fiat.
