I just wanted to know that,what amount of risk is there in investing in bitcoins.
Right now i am planning to buy btc approx 3-4 btc and just hold them as i guess the price of bitcoin will increase in future and i will get some good profit.But i want to know what is the risk involved.Can bitcoin price decrease and is this right time to buy the bitcoin.

In my opinion there is no risk in the bitcoin Investment , the reason is clear daily Investment in the bitcoin is going increasing and that is results into increase in the price .
Secondly few more countries are looking to declare bitcoin as legal way of payment ( in case of Japan has already accepted ) .
So these are directly showing that what the bitcoin is , since earlier I was also thinking same like you but after the enter in the bitcoin I realise that this is really a better way for the income without any fear .

If you would have asked me 2 years ago, I'd have said "extremely risky". . . Now? It doesn't appear as risky to me anymore. Sure there are dips, but when was the last time BTC *trended* down?

It will depend on how much capital you invest in bitcoins as if you invest all your money only in bitcoins then there can be a risk of loosing it at once if bitcoin disappears in future but if you have invested limited amount then there is no high risk.

Bitcoin won't get vanished in a short time, because when the price increasesthe capital market will increase. This easily make a better circulation getting around the entire population based on the adoption. Still everything is decentralized we need to act accordingly by investing in an diversified manner.

If the investment is large then the risk is also large and the results are also great if lucky.

I think if you buy bitcoin now then you hold it for a while so make a profit for you, if so the risk for the loss is very small but with a note should often monitor the price in the market so you always update the price in order to make a decision.

If you buy bitcoin as an investment, than there is somewhat risk involved.
Price increase & decrease is very much normal for bitcoin or any other altcoins.

For example, when I joined bitcoin world, the price was around $250 - $300
But you can check today's price. It is $1,487 in preev.com at the time of writing.

So maybe there will be a decrease or increase of $100-$200 in next coming days (this goes for short run).
But if you have plan for long run, then price may cross $2,000.. WHO KNOWS?

Good Luck With Your Investment.

Any investments has a risk even in real life business you need to take a risk if you want to become successful and like in trading bitcoins you need to lose some money before you become a perfect trader but i think if you do a long term holding your 3btc it has a low chance of losing your money become Bitcoins has continuesly getting the value bigger it started in $200 but look now it becomes $1500 try to hold it between 1 to 2 years i think you will get a good profit but you need patience.

I think even a short term holder has a low risk to lose you just know when to buy and when to sell them.. if you bough bitcoin from the price of $1200 before i am sure you can make a profit today if you sell it since the price was rise and touch $1,474 value there are still possibility that the price of bitcoin will increase more or the price can be decrease soon so if you holding that amount of bitcoin half that amount is good to sell right now and gain a good profit and hold the rest and maybe the price will increase more soon if the price is increase you can sell the rest and still gain a good profit but if not since you already sold your bitcoin you still made a good profit with the half of your investment.

If you had followed your instinct of buying Bitcoin, you would have profited right now. Though I can say there is always a risk when you are doing an investment, Bitcoin seems have the least of it as long as you hold it for a very long time.

I don't think human instinct is a good way on choosing what you would do since human instinct isn't always right. By the way, you might need knowledge on things you will be investing, in this case, bitcoin which has a lot of possibilities to reach the price of 1500-2000$ at the end on the year. About the risk, all investments has it but you can lessen it by constantly checking or updating on what is happening on your investment.

Well answer is in single line,
"More the investment is volatile, higher is the degree of risk and if you consider Bitcoin, it is the most volatile investment I ever seen."

Yesterday the price was rolling around $1350, today its $1450!!
But, Bitcoin has been able to prove it over time. High volatility of Bitcoin doesn't mean it is not promising investment because the trend over the years shows that Bitcoin is on upward side of hill only.
So, in my views there is no bad period to buy Bitcoin at present. You can buy any time at any price because over the period of time, your value will increase for sure.

Correct and if you have patience to hold them longer then you can buy them at any price and even the present price will give you good profits in future so I don't think there is any risk in investing in bitcoins at a moment.

it is all speculation, the risks are there but in my opinion price going down in long term has a very small chance. but in short term because of some stuff that are going on can go down but i won't last long.ut there is another risk that people usually forget, when you are using bitcoin you are in charge of keeping your private keys (your wallet) safe. and if you fail to do that, you will lose your money

Exactly the risk is there but in a little way. The market price is very good now a day and to my opinion it is not going to be down that the current price it have so, it is safe to invest. Also the wallet or the key is the most important thing in it. Many of the people lose their coins just because they don’t remember the keys and hence is a great loss indeed.

If people cannot follow the basic rules then I think they should not waste their time and money behind bitcoins as no one can afford to loose their coins only by forgetting their private keys as that is the most important factor to keep your bitcoins safe in your wallet.

We really can't determine how much risk in bitcoin but I assure you one thing, if you are willing and has the belief with the charts of bitcoin. Then you are not going to talk about the risk instead you are going to compute the possible profit that you may get upon investing there. As long as you did bought bitcoin at lower price, that's good.

If you have bought your bitcoins last year then you have already made huge profits but buying now is a risky as price is already high and we are not sure what will be the price of bitcoins in coming months or years and if we invest in it now and price crashes next year then it will be a huge loss for us.

Yeah it's quite risky to buy bitcoins now as the price is keep on increasing and I don't have an idea on when it is going to become lower. But if you can afford to buy right now even the price is quite high then you should buy right now. Because the price of bitcoin is on a bullish movement right now and it is for real.

Buying bitcoin right now i dont think is risky but you have to split your investment and buy it like if you are planning to buy 4 btc then first go with 0.5 btc right now price and in some more lower go with same amount so if their is any dip in price then you should be in position to buy and average your investment price. because if the ETF approves the BTC inclusion then this price we wont be able to see it again.

Why not just buy it on a full blast with 4 bitcoin? Just consider the price right now as not the end of the price increase. There are some issues and it has to be done in the future with solutions. And that's why the price will still have a lot of chance to keep on pumping, so if you are able to buy at high price, you can sell it higher.

No one can predict accurately what the price would be in future.It is most likely to go up going by previous trends but if you can't take a risk,bitcoin trading is not for you.

if you want to invest its a very big risk that we need to put out. the more the investment the high the risk.

risk is the same, market didnt affected by your capital, you just lost more and earn more when you get profir or just lose, get ready to it

yeah and you can sold it right now as we know that bitcoin price now is really high than last year. but if you don't want to sell right now, you can still hold it until the other high price is come. i think the risk in bitcoin investment is always exist especially if we bough bitcoin in high price and suddenly the price is getting dump but you still have a chance to make profit when the price is back normal and reach more higher price.
