Every successful investor is a risk taker.

[DYOR+BTC]

The choice to live and face Nigeria's current situation alone is a risk one can never forget taking. The economic system is so pressed to an extend that all citizens are always looking for solution to it.
To become a successful investor one must be ready to sacrifice anything valuable and what he cherished because life also is a risk. In other to become a successful investor, risk taking is the primary factor to be considered because the higher to risk the higher the profit but it most be a productive risk that have been properly accessed and the probability of success ascertained.

[Jeremiah001]

Every investor nah risk takers dem be no doubt but no go advise person make dem take risk way go fit lead dem to disaster, we get smart risk takers we also get people way they take risk way be say if eh cast dem no fit survive am.

For bitcoin investment, one thing nah to make up ur mind say u wan invest on am the other thing nah to get mind to hold am for long time no be to rush sell am when market just show small sign say eh wan drop, take risk get sense to save up money way go fit serve as emergency fund incase something come up for future u no go rest sell.

The true is that everything in life is all about risk either you fear life or not, life is a risky so when we talk about business as an investors all you should know is that in an investment you can either loose or gain, for investing in Bitcoin you should have a simple mindset of patience because sometimes the Bitcoin market can either fall or rise , so the perfect risk to avoid in investing into Bitcoin is time, though sometimes I see risk as time because with time the risk you take in your investment can either generate profit or Lost at due time, as a newbie investing in Bitcoin don't forget the fact that you are taking risk, but be  patience enough to look into time.

I get your point bro it's said that in this life man must sacrifice something to truly succeed and it's true. That said nothing comes for free as an investor, one major thing one should always prioritize is to eliminate every mindset of hesitation because  deep down it can actually destroy one's investment psychology when he or she continues to repeat it. That's why when it comes to the Bitcoin market being volatil we have strategies like the DCA Dollar Cost Average to help reduce stress, risk, and other stuff But then  you must always have a good plan. And that plan is a strategy like the one I mentioned earlier because if you don't  one can just end up gambling with the market. That's why you must always take your time to be prepared before investing in Bitcoin. That's just it...

When it comes to investing, there should always be a proper for escape roots which in most cases are call plan B, this is also applicable to other forms of investments. Bitcoin is a high interest yielding or profit making investments that anybody can invest in, but there is need to understand the investment. Not just to depend on other people's speculations. Proper study of how the market works and knowing the does and don't in the market which involves when to invest and when not to invest are part of what should be put into consideration.
No matter the risk involved, it's worth the stress. So every successful investor are risk taker, because it's take time, consciousness Patience, determination to have successfully results in all investments including Bitcoin investments.

It's true that when we are in for a long term investment we can make regular buys irrespective of the price at that time which is a good thing to do, but one can actually make wise buying decisions when they add speculation to their DCA and sight good buying opportunities that are always present in the market due to its high volatility. Currently the price of bitcoin is trending around $87k which is bit further away from the ATH zone however, during this dips one can leverage the opportunity by buying cheap now. So even if your DCA  plan is carried out every first of the month, you could go out of your discipline to seize this opportunity and make your balancing later.

I go lie for you, Niger current situation na risk, but it sha depends on where you are standing. If you have been stacking for a while, a drop is not exactly fun, but it is not the end of the world either..
Some people just see it as a chance to grab more at a discount, others just want the price to keep going up forever. Me personally, I just look at it as part of the whole accumulation journey.

So many persons just decide to take risk out of no proper planning. Risk is what we need to succeed, no matter what we may do, but the only problem is, on what basis are you taking the risk, is it productive or not. So definitely the risk we may be taking should be productive, if not our efforts will only be for a waste.
As far as I can go and know, sacrifice is what most investors use as a strategy to succeed, because I know without it, it will be difficult for one to.
Nigeria to say is never for the weak, you just ought to do your own part that will definitely lead you to survival and that is just it. The country sef tire every body as any were you chock body, you go no say things hard, so na to use sense follow the country, if not no way.

[Fiasem20]

Your topic is actually correct, indeed every successful investor is a risk taker.Withstanding the ups and downs of the market is also considered as a risk to me,during the journey of accumulation a lot of investors are tempted to sell off their holdings due to price decline but those that believed on the potential outcome of bitcoin's return would hold onto their coins till it get to their investment goal.Investors can also be discouraged by the catchy clickbait they read online by bitcoin critics,but those of them that neglected the news and focused on their investment journey are considered risk takers to me.In making risk that would yield potential outcomes there are always road blocks,so the ability to overcome those road blocks make you a true risk taker.

Each I come across this topic, I easily discuss with much concern. Nature has made it that all living things are risk takers, including animals, birds and insects as much as they crave for survival.

Consequently, all investors who desire to be greatly successful should consider taking risks. Risk can not be separated from life. Life lives with risk, and risk walks with life.

I go lie for you, Niger current situation na risk, but it sha depends on where you are standing. If you have been stacking for a while, a drop is not exactly fun, but it is not the end of the world either..
Some people just see it as a chance to grab more at a discount, others just want the price to keep going up forever. Me personally, I just look at it as part of the whole accumulation journey.

Whether you’ve even stacking for a while or you just started, or even if you’ve reached an over accumulation status, it really doesn’t matter. How investors reacts towards a particular market movement is strictly based on the investor’s mindset and perspective about the asset they’re investing in. For investors with long term plans towards their investment, even if the market drops by 50% they’ll worry less, compared with a trader who’s mindset and expectations is only for the price of Bitcoin to grow.

Even if long-term holders do not have sufficient knowledge about Bitcoin, it is not a big problem for them. Even if the market situation is bad, they do not panic. Their chances of losing money in the long run are very low. Those who give importance to short-term profits have a higher chance of losing money. The investor's attitude before investing is an important factor. If they want to invest as a long-term holder, they can start investing without any hesitation.

Whatever one does, risk is always involved, while some risks are worth taking, and some are not worth talking about. A businessman and every business has one set goal, to make more profits with every possible means of mitigating the risks of losing. Risk taking is what marks a businessman standout from the crowd, who is aiming for higher returns to one who settles for what's available. Every business man who takes risks takes complete checks on every possible outcome the risk will bring, which might be good for the betterment of the business or worst to the closing of one's business.

As much as failure is part of the journey to success, risk is not also left behind, otherwise, there will be a slow movement in the journey.

Long term holders nor even Dey shake, because dem don already understand the bigger picture…   even if dem nor know every technical detail about Bitcoin..  But me sha personally, I feel like the main difference is mindset..  If you are pursuing quick profits, every minor dip go feel like attack.. But when you are holding for the long run, those dips start looking like small noise..

Last last, it is really about the attitude you enter the market with..

Some times in life is just better you risk some certain things to get to your desire destination in life. one of our brother on the forum once said that it's more risky for not taking risk and that's true, it's better you take some hash or drastic decisions in achieving your goals in life.

However Bitcoin investment is more easy when saying it verbally but if you aren't determined , courageous and ready to face what ever the outcome might be you can't be able to invest perhaps keep on procrastinating till the end of time, the rare truth is that you need to be hard hearted person otherwise you can't, you need to be ready to take the risk perhaps sacrificing all that's needed to get what you want in your investment journey.

Well  said , nothing good in life comes easy and opportunities are taken not given, this means if you don't take the risk you won't achieve great things in life, and yes you could fail but the risk will surely be worth it.
                Looking at our current billionaires and millionaires in the world,the ones we all one to be like there all took risks that changed their life's, mostly investment risk. Back in 2010 when bitcoin was trading around $0.003-$0.50, the people who bought then with large capital,took a risk to buy it cause there were a lot of rumors that it will be worth nothing in the future, but fast forward to 2025, it hit an alt of $125k, does investors are currently millionaires if there took the risk to hold up till now. So getting great in life is all about risk taking,but also remember to take calculated risk.

True sha, the way someone reacts in the market really comes down to the mindset they walk in with. Long term investors already prepared themselves for both the ups and downs, so even a heavy drop would not shake them too much because they are thinking far ahead, not just today price..

But traders? Most times their emotions are tied to short term movement, so every dip feels like a personal attack. That is why you see the panic reactions…

[Y3shot]

Investment risks are always there and if you are not ready to take the risk you may end up being the same and not yielding any success.  But investor's needs to have good understanding to know the kind of risk , if it is worth it. Most times we take risk all in the name of taking risk because of one dont even have understanding they end up taking risk blindly,  this is just ignorance.  It is important to have understanding to take good risk and also to know the difference between risk and ignorance.

Every successful investor is a risk taker and it would be good to be careful when taking risk, and it should be a well calculated risk, because sometimes there are risk which might actually put you in trouble, which is why when also investing in any business don’t invest all your money and you should also try to have some backup money, I have been in a situation that invested in some business and it was actually good that I had my back up money available.

People have ventured into different business, and have find themselves in an ugly situation because they were not very prepared about the situation, I’m speaking as a victim, I had some business which I started and was actually very prepared with that business because I had some money saved aside which will be able to help and manage my investments, that is the possible way of taking a well calculated risk.

Dat one na true, if person no take risk for life the person no go fit achieve better thing for life. Our people say it person wan kill lion na goat you go use set trap . And dis one mean say you need risk high to get him.

However Bitcoin investment is more easy when saying it verbally but if you aren't determined , courageous and ready to face what ever the outcome might be you can't be able to invest perhaps keep on procrastinating till the end of time, the rare truth is that you need to be hard hearted person otherwise you can't, you need to be ready to take the risk perhaps sacrificing all that's needed to get what you want in your investment journey.

Na plenty things dey make people no invest for Bitcoin. Like this procrastination wey you talk, another one na fear. Some people no dey gree buy Bitcoin Dem go wan see how market go dey before Dem buy and Dem forget say market no dey wait for person. Some people no dey gree buy because of wrong information or wetting oyibo man call speculation. Now anybody wey wan buy it invest for Bitcoin no sopos dey look those kind things if not d person no go fit invest.

Sometimes life is all about risk, you have to risk to make a leaving if you don't risk you will lose totally, whatever you are doing in life never forget to risk to earn a leaving.
Life is not all about do or die affairs,  try to invest on many business because you never can tell which of them to pay off, Bitcoin is one of the best coin to invest on, because it's the most strongest ever that no any coin will never dream to beat even in near future, but before you invest on it make sure to take your time to learn from it, seek knowledge about it after you might have acquired the necessary information about it and that of risk management then come back and invest on it

The choice to live and face Nigeria's current situation alone is a risk one can never forget taking. The economic system is so pressed to an extend that all citizens are always looking for solution to it.
To become a successful investor one must be ready to sacrifice anything valuable and what he cherished because life also is a risk. In other to become a successful investor, risk taking is the primary factor to be considered because the higher to risk the higher the profit but it most be a productive risk that have been properly accessed and the probability of success ascertained.

It hard to take risk in some investment, but if u no wetin e go come out from d risk u will not be afraid to take d risk in d country, because many digital investment dey wey go make u not to feel this inflation that is pushing Nigeria economy to hell. I no some young guys wey no dey look for employment in our country again, but dey have tested BTC investment and dey prefer taking their risk in investing in BTC and hodl for long years before dey can sell to earn profit that will boost their wealth.

Even though u want to take d risk on BTC investment, don't invest what u can't afford to lose in your risk, because some investors have committed suicide because dey invested what dey can't afford to lose.

You made a very good statement at the end of your post because it is not all risk that works in that way, because risk can be higher and yet the profit will not be equivalent or close to it and that is unnecessary risk and miscalculation. Everything needs to be calculated and planned before starting so that it doesn't posse much stress as someone progresses and the reason some folks run into challenge is because of lack of planning and calculation because some start planning after they have started their investment which is wrong and the country we are now, it takes more than planning and calculation to survive.
