There is always a risk, but I see how serious players have entered the crypto market now, and for me this only means that the market will grow after the strongest “eat” the weaker ones, these are the laws of the market. It is difficult to say now whether the price will fall or whether a reversal has already occurred, this is not so important, since I believe that Bitcoin will not fall significantly lower, so the time to buy is still very good.
That is easy to say when the stronger has so many weapons and ammo to attack while the weaker has punches and nothing more. Think about it, even the "richest" regular person who lives in UK or USA or whoever ends up having like 30-50k a year, that's the richest regular person of course, there are whales and I am not talking about them here.
Those people could invest only so much and what they can do with it is limited and they do not have deep pockets. Nobody should expect these people to fight against manipulator whales who invest 1 million and then when it goes down, invest another million, and throw in a few million just because they wanted to at any given moment. That type of power makes them profit whenever they want and take your money, while you have very little and do not have the moving room that those guys would have.
