Bitcoin is unstoppable value and no one can predict what value of bitcoin in the future. But if you going to buy bitcoin with approx 3-4 btc? that a huge amount and i have no any idea what is possible risk thing happen if you going to hold your bitcoin in long-term, But one thing for sure bitcoin will increase in future because and if you invest now you will get good profit in future.

losses in bitcoin investments depend on how much you invest because the bigger your investment the greater your losses will be, and the losses can happen if the bitcoin price drops very low

Once you invest in any investment firm, risk is always there.  That is the reason why some people compare investing into gambling because the fact that you have a chance to earn and to loose are there.  But the good thing about investing in bitcoin is no other investment firm can give you the opportunity to earn up to 700% of your initial investment per year.  Due to the holiday season, bitcoin value decreases nowadays and I guess, this is the perfect time to buy bitcoin because for sure, after the season, bitcoin value will increase again so, the potential of earning is more feasible.
Nothing is risk here you can invest here as much as you can even billionaire’s are investing here and in my country I know a lot of rich people who are investing in bitcoin from a long time they are earning a very good profit from it and in past few months’ some rich companies have also join bitcoin and some big banks also join it which mean bitcoin is trust worthy and you can invest here and take your profit from it.

Surely there is a little bit of risk to invest into bitcoin because its rate of price doesn’t stay at one position.
Any time it can change its value and if its rate increases then you can get a good profit but if its rate comes down then you will lose your money and it will, of course, harmful for you.
There is no communication between bitcoin and any government so you will not get exchange money from it and you have to get money by selling it to any buyers at online. But there is  a strong security in this system so you don’t need to take tension about any type of losing money of you. Just observe the market carefully and do your work correctly.

There is a risk involved in every kind of investment. So  the risk cannot be determined but it is there for sure..

The hazard in contributing BTC is nearly the same as in different kinds of speculations. The primary lead isn't to put all the cash in one crate. Be that as it may, BTC has a decent element as an incredible cost increment and you don't have to miss this open door.

My general rule is to invest what I am willing to lose, and what won't damage my finances. And never borrow money to invest them. I'd rather invest smaller amounts each month than borrowing money

For me, all investment has a risk but how much risk bitcoin has. We all know that bitcoin has an unstable price that you can control. Yes, bitcoin has a high amount that you can earn a lot of money, but if you will invest all your money into bitcoin, the risk is very high because that is your money and you don’t know if it will be successful or not. Just remember that spend some money that you afford to lose, in that case, or scenario the risk is very low because you can afford to lose it. The pressure of the threat of losing money always depends on the person how to spend it.  Smiley

In contrast to other investment commodities such as gold etc. invesatsi inside bitcoin is extremely risky, risks that arise from the security risks of hackers who at all times always try to steal your assets, the risks that come next are from the price movement itself which sometimes change very significantly, but the promised advantage also proportional to the risks that arise, I suggest to think carefully before you invest in bitcoin.


I agree. Investin in bitcoins surely is something that is absolutely risky. And this is not just a case in bitcoin alone. This includes every singke crypto currency existing in the crypto world. Specially nowadays that most of the ICOs are scams or projects that only aim for profit than solving actual problems on the crypto world. I wont even bother mentioning names but it think a lot of people already knows this and sees the same as i do.

So for op, be careful and make sure you know what you are doing before investing.

I do not recommend you to invest, bitcoin prices are very volatile. You must be prepared for loss and profit, all investments are so.

I don't think so, how much risk in bitcoin investment because there's a lot of risk factors they have in investment online because we cannot sure if it is good or bad to be hold or to keep our money on it but make sure if you want to invest in some investment like this make sure you start in a small amount of capital to ensure the security of it.

Bitcoin investment definitely involves a lot of risk but we can just speculate how much. Bitcoin is a currency turned investment platform, but unlike a company in the stock market it do not posses a company profile for us to review. For me bitcoin's risk can be reduced by investing for the long term, if we can review its price history, we can see a 700% increase for the last seven years, such a monumental increase in just a small time. I believe that bitcoin will continue growing as more people begin to appreciate this new technology on how we purchase things.

there is no fool proof answer to this question. 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.

but 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. this risk is easily manageable though, since you can learn how to make a safe wallet (read about cold storage) and never worry about this risk.

Good point. The question of "how much" is a very difficult aspect to quantify especially in this market. Bitcoin investments are generally risky, and even if you have safeguards and factors that you look out for to somehow give you better chances of succeeding, it is still not sure that it would be probable for your to succeed 100%. There are so many factors and trends that affect the bitcoin market, which could affect how it will go that may spell its failure or success. Therefore, it's useless to know how much, what's important to know is what are the factors that can give you better chances of success.

For me the risk on long term investment in bitcoin is not very risky at all because you will just wait for like 1 to 2 years or more. But if we are talking about the short investment then it is very risky because the price is becoming unpredictable even more though all of this is base on my speculation.
Yeah, Bitcoin is pumped capital into lots because it is gradually gaining trust and expanding its popularity in the market, that made new investors realize the value and potential of bitcoin, they have started investing in bitcoin, so investing and holding bitcoin for a long time will not be too risky, but remember that for a long time does not mean too long, we should sell it at the right time. We should not be too greedy and have blind faith in Bitcoin, sometimes this can also bring good results but sometimes, it also brings bad results, careful and remember safety is always a top priority

Diversify across other cryptocurrencies, and don't put all your wealth into cryptocurrencies. Just invest what you're comfortable with. The biggest risk is investing nothing at all in crypto and then it takes off without you.

in my opinion, in any investment there must be a risk and in the bitcoin the risk that may occur is the price of bitcoin that suddenly dropped it will cause losses
