Risks

[Awaklara]

When people talk about risk many quickly point to cryptocurrency and forex as the biggest risks anyone can take. However this mid-year August 2025 was a real eye opener. For example my wife invested a lot of time and money in beans this year but when the market crashed the losses were heavy. This shows that even physical investments can be just as risky if not more depending on the circumstances.

Every trading market has its risks, even in traditional trading, where the goods we speculate will increase in price and provide us with profits, the outcome can be the opposite. Market situations can sometimes be unpredictable, we must truly understand the purchasing power available in the market, and speculating several months ahead is still difficult to predict.
Those who can be considered experienced in crypto trading are also not free from the risk of losses. They cannot always guarantee consistent profits in every trade. However, what can be done is to maximize profits and minimize losses.

Essentially, most decisions involve risk, even the smallest ones, especially anything related to profit. In the world of trade, business, or anything with the potential for profit, there's always a risk involved. The difference lies in the magnitude of the risk within our activities. Therefore, it's fair to say that risk is a natural part of life when we seek to profit.
This is why we need to learn more, especially to master our field, at least understanding the basics. The goal is to minimize the risk so it doesn't become too significant.

Once you invest, learn to embrace its associated risk as well. There are no investments without risk, just like there can be no guarantees as much as investment is concern. But there is always hope for success, that’s why we hear a lot of successful stories from investing particularly in bitcoin.

Your passion and consistency towards your investment create a big difference. Know your investment well, and maximize its potentials. But never forget to diversify when your first investment pays off, because security and sustainability matter the most, most especially if you are in a volatile investment.

The reason why most people point to cryptocurrency and forex as the most risky market is because of the volatility of the assets over there, most cryptocurrency assets can go from 20 to 1000x and also could go from 100 to zero that the risks of the volatilities in that, so we shouldn't be surprised to the point that we begin to get scared for the risks, instead of applying risks management.

All investments are risky, they’re just level to how risky they are against each other. Physical assets are very mush risky also especially when they’re being faced with natural disasters which are unforeseen and cannot be controlled. To some extent, digital assets like crypto and forex have stop losses that can limit your loss which is under your control, but this physical investments are far from that and cannot be controlled by human when hit by natural disasters. So just take your time to take on the risk investment your mind can condone.

Risks are inherent in any business, as there is a chance of losing your money everywhere. But you should understand the differences between risky and high-risk business. An example of a risky business is cryptocurrency trading. But if you use x100 leverage, or trade meme coins, then it will already be a high-risk business.

Commodities market is crazily risky. Anyone who has not been there will not even know. You need a different type of risk management skillset to do this. You cannot even set stop loss or any of those things when the price starts to crash. However, it is an area that is different from this crypto trading being that you need to learn how to read charts and use technological tools.

This is essentially a business that carries clear risks. To be able to do this, you should have sufficient knowledge to minimize the risk of loss. Even people with good knowledge can still experience losses, especially if you don't have any knowledge at all, which is clearly not the right thing to do.

Also, when we enter a field like this, we must be able to accept the risks involved. If we are not prepared for the risks, it might be better not to enter it. Many factors must be considered when entering this field.

If that is about investment, you need to understand that will have risks. That depend on you managing the risks not be bigger. If you know that your investment in beans can drop when the market crashes, you can search for a way to avoid a big loss.

People become greedy when they see their investment value increase so they will add more money to their investment. They don't think much about the risks that can happen anytime.

Risk management will be important to learn so we can anticipate the big loss. We are invest in something so we should know about the risks and what the do and don't.

Don't know why you thought the risk is only in cryptocurrency, and there is no risk in doing your own farming or business. Because whatever you are managing by yourself, like business and farming and other activities, can make you lose because you are not employed you are self-employed, as if you were working for someone else, then you don't care what the results are, you will get paid by the employer.

But if you manage everything on your own, then you should face the results, whether it is trading, investing, or starting your own business. I hope you have learned your lesson the hard way, although the level of risk is very high in trading compared to any other normal small-scale business or farming.

There is no investment on earth together that's without risk; some are just with minimal risk, while others possess a greater risk. If there was anything without risk, then everyone should have been advised to venture into it. That's why we are advised to do research on whateverwe want to invest our time and money in and decide which we can manage the risk of very well without it having too much effect on us. DYOR.

It is true that any business has risks but more or less. If you want to do any business, you must first look at its details and understand how risky it is, whether it is suitable for you and you have to decide accordingly. There are risks in cryptocurrency but if we invest in suitable coins then the risk is much less like for example Bitcoin. But many times we have seen that various altcoins are risky.

Any investment is risky, that is why it is an investment not a fixed deposit.

While some investments are less risky, others are more risky - its just how to distribute the assets in terms of your risk appetite. If you put all the capital on one asset you are going to face its 100% risk. Hence make sure you have some low risk assets and some high risk assets.

This you have to learn how you can manage on your own. Low risk will be bank deposits, high risk can be altcoins, which I never recommend.

Everything has risk in life, not just in crypto as you have describe. I was once own a farm land and was about to harvest one of my supposedly biggest investment when suddenly a typhoon hit our country and all of my plantation was devastated.

And there was once a season for onions as well, my crop was really good but I don't know, there was a pests that grip our province and again, all the money that I risk was put to naught. It was a learning experience though, I will be honest that I cry, but I don't let that devastation carry me and so I just regroup. Just like here in Bitcoin or crypto in general, if you lost, then just stand up.

Risk cannot be limited to digital asset and investment alone, we literally take risk to engage in our daily routine only they it hasn't occurred to us most of the times that we are in for another risk actually.  When we try to make money, we have to risk some amount, the reason most persons take the risk within the digital space more seriously is because of the volatility that is often experienced around that space but fail to recognise that even offline there could be some very tough risk investing.

Business in any form involves risk, be it investment, trading, manufacturing, distribution or services bothe offline and online, they come with  their own level of risk that the investors, traders or speculators have to bear and again this is both online and offline.  Some offline investment risk can be even very high such that you will not believe as compared to some of the risk we take with digital assets.

Everything that has potential carries risks. This includes every action and step we take.

For example, when building a business, we rent a space or building, or something else that will serve as our business premises. The capital we spend to rent or purchase that space also carries the risk of loss. For example, if the business starts and everything doesn't go according to plan, we could experience significant losses. These losses could even be greater than those we incur from stock or crypto trading.

Ultimately, we must first understand the potential and risks we're about to take. We must be prepared for them. We must also have a backup plan for everything. We should only enter when we fully understand what we're about to enter. And that's why we also need to understand risk management.

If you want to build your dream everything is full of risks, whether it is investment or you are running a physical business, without it we will never achieve it. Many great achievements and dreams often require bold steps, even though risks are unavoidable. With careful or good planning, and careful analysis, and the courage to take steps, by combining all of these, we are much better prepared to face the challenges and risks that lie ahead. Building a dream is not easy, but with perseverance, planning, and courage, we can achieve the success we envision.

Risk are always attached to everything, no matter what you do, There is no such thing as no risk investments, if someone tell you there is no risk then its a scam, if you don't want to have risk then don't invest, even the experience investor or trader knows it, this is why rich people become more richer because they are willing to take risk.

Almost everything that is profitable comes with risks... including investing in highly volatile cryptocurrencies, so you must be prepared for all the risks.
True... people become wealthy because they dare to take big risks, as the saying goes, “high risk, high return.”
OP planted beans when he wanted to sell them at the market, but the price plummeted this is not much different from the risks in the cryptocurrency market.

No investment or business is completely free of risk, but some carry higher risks than others. Even in physical investments or businesses, there are those that carry high risk as well. That is why, in any kind of business, investment, or trading someone wants to get involved in, they need to do proper research, understand the risks involved, and know how the investment or business works.

In the case of beans and other related crops like soybeans, those who have been in the system for a long time understand how the market works. They always conduct proper research before trading. They usually trade when they discover that there is not much production of beans, allowing them to take advantage of the season.

However, many people fail in the beans business or trade because they don’t do their own research. They simply buy and try to trade because others made a lot of profit the previous season. But that is not how it works.Those who understand trading or the business of cash crops don’t rely on just one particular crop. They invest in many so that if one fails, the others might not make they recover their loses.

Any investment which you making, then you should know there is risk involved in it, either the investment is physical, or you making bitcoin investment and other investments. If anyone introduce you to any investment, and you are told there is no risk involved in the investment, then you should know you likely going to be scammed, anything investment, there is always risk.

I don’t know why people keeps on making noise about bitcoin investment, they makes it look like bitcoin is the only investment which there is risk involved in it, but it’s not like that, people make us feel like other investments are risk free. I have seen some people involved themselves in physical investment and they ended up failing, and some are always successful, but people do see failed physical investments as normal things.

Every investment,  trade or business is always risky thst is why it is important for one to have understanding when going into to what thst has to do with money. In trading or investment sometimes they are occurrence which you don't even expect and if you don't have a better knowledge on how t go about it you will end up losing your money. In every there are always risk and when people go in with greed, lact of understanding the risk of losing increase. Before you go into any kind of trade, you have to be prepared against risk because risk is always their to take advantage of those who doesn't understand what a trade is all about.
