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.
I'll take one question at a time. Let's start with the question "Can bitcoin price decrease?". The answer for that is YES, bitcoin might fall at any time. There's always a risk on investment, and bitcoin is no different at all. Since bitcoin is known for its volatility, we can't ignore the fact that at any time, your money might suffer a lot. Don't worry, anyway, because bitcoin has gone through a lot of situations like this, but in the end, it was still able to recover.

Now, let's take the question "Is this the right time to buy bitcoin?". That depends on your plan. If you plan to invest your money on bitcoin for just a short time, then I think it is not the best time to do that. Short-term investments usually don't succeed due to the fact that the movement of transactions in the market is not done in just a month or two. But if you're investing for a long-term, then I think it is still a good time to buy bitcoin. Who knows, bitcoin might double next year. Tracing the track of its value's growth, we can see that bitcoin has indeed grew to become one of the BIG THING in this new era.

I think there is no risk in bitcoin investment. Because bitcoin price never decrease. So you can invest in bitcoin without any hesitation.
There are risk in every investment that you make, even those that are very low risk, like an investment in the US bonds, has a risk that the US is not going to pay you, so investments have risks associated with them and the the longer you deny that fact then your ability as an investor will be impaired.

every investments has a risk. but if you dont want to risk tjen just invest little amount. if youre a risky one then you wull have a big profit.. but buy bitcoin or any coin  in low price so that it has a low risk.
If the person wants to lower the risk then the best thing to do is to study the investment at the first few days of knowing it and that will help the person to have a lower risk in his investment because he will know the best thing to do with that investment and he can get that investment with a great entry in the market.

if we buy bitcoin in high price then the risk is always high too but if we can get bitcoin when the price is lower like few years ago, then we don't have to worried about the risk. beside we can take big profit because we are still holding until now, we can use only small amount if we want to withdraw just to take our money for investing back plus we can take some profit.
i think your correct mate but you can't controlled the emotion and the feelings of the traders still worrying for the investment what will happen in the future of here investment, but for me same to your opinion risk is still there if you invest any kind of trade business and if got the return profit use your skills and strategy youn eran much more than you expectation.

No one can tell you that there will be one, two or so many risks in investing btc at all. I'm sure. The risks will come in the most unexpected way. So what you need to do is always be careful in everything and need a little luck so you can get through it all. But sometimes there are unintended risks that you can not control and you have to accept it bitterly.

It is always risky. But investments always are. However, the sentiment with Bitcoin is clearly that it will go up with everybody, and that is somewhat a guarantee that it will keep on going up... at least until a certain point.

I remember the real state crisis in 2008... everybody was convinced then and the years before that, that property would alwasy go up. And it did go up for a good time and many got rich with it.... but finally crashed.

So yes, it is very likely for it to go up, but at some point it is likely to crash too.
In a way you are correct, but the difference with the real estate bubble is that there is no banking industry backing this surge in price, it is the people and the potential market for bitcoin is huge and if we consider the small number of people that have adopt it then it is natural to think that bitcoin will go up in price.
the risk will always be on every investment, let alone on bitcoin investment many users consider that fluctuations are the biggest risk in bitcoin but in fact if you can take advantage of fluctuations into profits then the risks in bitcoin will be reduced or even disappeared, for example traders take advantage of fluctuations for their trading activities so they are not too concerned about the risk of fluctuations

Wjen talking about investment, may it be bitcoin or anything else, as long as you are ralking about investment, there will always be those risks, since you will be using your money for something that you are not sure if you are going to win or not or barely break even. Just always remember that if you are into investments, ONLY INVEST WHAT YOU CAN AFFORD TO LOSE.

I reply that it's extremely risky investment. It can't be predicted or controlled. Easy to lose everything in a simple moment

Always remember this mate. In all investment there will be still risk even tho is small nor big. Don't rely on us here with your investment. It's better to do a research for your self. We are not liable of your loss if we told to you invest at this momment. Just do a research of your own.

In very investment there is currently a threat it is depend on you then if you go for expenditure or not, Bitcoin for me is a good investment since the marketplace benefit is still climbing and this is great for prolonged expression investment.
It's not a threat, threat is different and far from risk. The right term should be risk and that can be found in all types of investment. Even the very easy investment which is holding has the risk and there's no way to measure those risk, it will only depend on how you can take those risks.

Bitcoin does have its risks, otherwise all would invest all their fortunes over it without worry, and there is no way to make all people rich, since bitcoin and crypto doesnt make nothing else besides put the money into circulation, soo there is a fair distribution no matter if you have big capital or low capital, since you take the risks you can be one of the lucky people that will be able to change your life.

Basically we don't know the risk in every site if you invest money in a site first is you don't know if the site was trusted there are site that can give you small profit but many site are just scamming people who invested.
You are right,
no one can figure out which sites are right and which ones give little profit, even there are fake sites. but who knows if we do not try it. and I think all investments are definitely at risk, so we better not give up before trying.

There's no risk on investing your money into bitcoin but the big problem is how much percentage of profit you will earn on investing. We all know that bitcoin was unstable in its price with a big demand and constant supply. Bitcoin price decrease but it will recover in just a moment. Let us see and watch the price of bitcoin before investing.

Remember that on every investments, you can never guarantee that you will not lose. Investing in bitcoin is a game of chance, you might end up losing or winning. You can't say that there are no risk involved.

Going back to the OP as i said there is a risk, especially for 3-4 BTC which is a big amount.  But certain things might help you dealing with it. One is you must have this attitude, that before investing you must accept the risk and be comfortable with it. Because if you feel discomfited about the game of risk, you might end up taking part with the other investors doing BIG mistakes because of fear. Ending up in a chunk of losses. Be ready of those chances. Buy or invest now if you think you are ready.  Smiley

Seriously? There is no risk in bitcoin? Please stop this kind of trolling, bitcoin have been accused as a ponzi/scam because of troll posts such as yours. As bitcoin enthusiasts, we are responsible to spread knowledge about it including the risks involved in investing on it.

Now going back to the OP; I don't suggest that you buy 4 bitcoins at a time (however, your post was made in April so I guess you already did), instead you should cost average buying bitcoins. The risk will come from yourself when you sell in panic. Also, having 4BTCs need at least a hard wallet for storage - you should never put such amount in an online wallet.

In every investment there are risks, so do not put all your hard earned money in one platform. Diversify. CAVEAT.

Each investment is risky. Every job we have must have an impact, whether it is positive or negative. If we dare not do anything then we can not live. For the current bitcoin is good prospects, we can see the price ranking chart will continue to increase.

There is always great risk in investing bitcoin. Bitcoin is a new technology and the huge risk is that nobody will buy into these technology and it will die. However, it is able to pitch itself well to address even the modern technology that was unable to solve. Even though now there are many other alt coins that prove to fill in the gap that bitcoin was unable to do, bitcoin was still view as the king of crypto and it continue to lead the other coins to revolutionize the world.
