For sure Life is not without risks, you waking up and stepping out of the house is already a risk, that is just minimal default risk but to go further in life you have to take bigger risks. No business progresses without taking calculated risks, there’s no wealthy person today who will say he has never taken any risks.
Bitcoin is a well calculated risk that is sure to yield results in a long term duration.
When you look at all that concerns bitcoin, you’ll know that it is the future of money, and big companies and Nations are getting involved by the day.
By investing in Bitcoin for the long term, you can remove the risk of investment to a large extent, but it would not be correct to say that it will definitely give results. Investment and risk are two things that are intertwined. The strategy adopted to reduce risk will give you peace of mind but will not guarantee it. What I imagine in Bitcoin investment is that if you can accumulate long term through discretionary income, this method will not increase the risk of investment because in reality you are meeting the family expenses and at the same time accumulating Bitcoin through additional funds that we call discretionary funds.

The price changes that people fear most are not the greatest threat. It's the discomfort and the uneasiness of them holding something most  people do not even understand. See the truth is that new ideas will always look dangerous at first before it will look obvious. There will always be elements of danger in new things before it becomes a more obvious and clear way of doing things. Bitcoin,  I believe,  is fundamentally changing how value can be stored and transferred,  It can be done without the need of anyone's permission,  and that is why I believe it is fundamentally different from other speculative investments.

When people call Bitcoin high risk,  it's simply because it does not fit into the traditional system that people trust,  and they do not understand it. There is no central control, no rules, no guarantees, and no safety nets, and that is what really scares most people. To me, that is the exact reason why it holds so much value and strength. In the short term,  loud price fluctuations can be annoying,  but I believe the true value can be found with the investments made towards the adoption of it in the long term.

All though I am not speaking for everyone, but dismissing it completely is like ignoring a financial evolution happening in real time. I cannot understand why people fear it so much, I think when you understand Bitcoin, it reduces the fear and the fear mostly comes from the headlines.

You're right There's no guarantee even though we are investing for the Long term, saying that it will definitely give result if HODL for Long term is just a personal believe. Personally I believe that if I invest and HODL for Long term that it will surely pay off but I don't just go around telling people that long term investment definitely pay off more especially when it has to do with bitcoin, the only thing I could say is that investing for the long term is the best approach even though there's no guarantee about the outcome.

when long term holders is compared to short term holders, it is very obvious that bitcoin is more profitable when hold for long term. So comparing long term holders and traders, we can say for sure that long term holders stand a better chance of being successful in bitcoin than short term holders. However, it won't be right to say with certainty that holding bitcoin for a longer term guarantee successful returns at the end of the investment timeline.

Since Bitcoin is an uncertain and volatile market, there is a possibility of both profit and loss in Bitcoin. Even since Bitcoin is decentralized, no one has control over its movement and there is no guarantee of when and where it will go. Decentralization is as convenient for Bitcoin as it is for the Bitcoin market. No matter how profitable Bitcoin is in the long run, you have to be able to take risks. Because the Bitcoin market is risky, we have to believe that.
people who thinks there is risk in investing in bitcoin are people who doesn’t have knowledge about bitcoin. You can’t categorize shitcoins to Bitcoin. Most of the people who talk how risky investing in bitcoin are people who are interested in trading and investing in short term without overaccumulation before trading at some little percentage, if you really want to enjoy your bitcoin investment it’s best adviced that you should hold your bitcoin assets for a long time. No matter how risky investing in bitcoin is. It can never be risky investing in Long term and HODL.
We can't actually say that there is no risk in bitcoin investment bitcoin investment is not a risk free investment, bitcoin is a volatile asset we can actually say that the risk in bitcoin is less than shitcoins, this is why investors are inform to invest with their discretionary income because you are not guaranteed to be successful. BTC is a trusted asset shitcoins should be avoided.
Bitcoin is a risky investment, but compared to other cryptocurrencies, Bitcoin can be said to be a safe investment, and especially in the case of Shitcoin. In comparison, Shitcoin has a lot of risk, so Bitcoin is a somewhat safer option, Bitcoin's acceptance is very high, demand is very high, limited supply, all in all, it makes Bitcoin a very promising asset in the long term, which we never get from other cryptos. And this is why Bitcoin is different from all cryptos, and the most in demand. Bitcoin has proven itself so far, it is enough to be confident to hold on to it for the future.
There is one thing that you don't still understand bitcoin is part of cryptocurrency and since bitcoin is part of cryptocurrency you don't have to compare bitcoin to other cryptocurrency because this sounds very confusing to me , you can either say that bitcoin is a risky investment but compare to other shitcoins/altcoins BTC is a safe investment because the risk involve in shitcoins is higher than bitcoin. You can make the difference to be clear by been more specific because the term cryptocurrency is a general name bitcoin is included in cryptocurrency so as shitcoins.


You don confuse me dude, you said Bitcoin is part of cryptocurrency and now you are saying it can not be compared with other cryptocurrency which doesn't make sense to me because if Bitcoin is part of cryptocurrency then it should be comparable with other cryptocurrencies. Bitcoin is a digital and unique asset and its potential, value, volatility etc has made it stand out and different from those other coins you are talking about and another reason they can not be compared with Bitcoin is because those coins depend on Bitcoin.

No doubt that long term investment is more profitable than short term investment reason is because of the compounding.Digital and physical assets tends to appreciate over a long period of time,for instance land,the land you bought 5 years back at a little amount wouldn’t be sold out with the same amount you bought it because the area must have developed and it would definitely appreciate.Even bitcoin profits compound for the long term but still not guaranteed.In conclusion,bitcoin investment or any other investment vehicle appreciates over long period of time,but take note not all altcoins are profitable in the long term most definitely there are pump and dump scheme.
