This podcast starts with talking about what Libra promises to us but even this interview was early step from bbc because it's another task if will Libra be in action because it may have serious issues with government of united states.
On another hand my opinion on given subject is that risks exists for investors and rewards are for both, investors and crypto enthusiasts but that reward is risky for investors. For people who use bitcoin as a payment method, it's great option for protecting privacy and managing your own money. Crypto offers cheap transactions without banks, that matters the most. You can hold money outside of bank and if you have bad bank history, nothing can stop you from making online transaction via using cryptocurrencies which is really a reward.

I don't listen to my mother nag for 10 seconds and you will be making me listen into a 28 minutes podcast? 10 years are still early, we all know that, Risks? We all know that, Rewards? We had been grabbing all of the rewards we have but most of the time, we let it go since we thought that it could grow more but that is btc, it pumps, it dumps still, we earn.
Tagging up a real life situation.Im with on the same foot as yours.Im not really keen on seeing podcast like this one yet we know on whats the risk and rewards of crypto and just being simply making yourself got involved into this speculative market you can
able to spot out on what are the things you would face up.

Just giving opinion maybe is not true for all their thinking, always have positive minds with bitcoin and altcoin always give us profit with good moment and time for buying and selling.
So you think regulation can make fluctuations disappear? in my opinion it's not a factor that will make prices stable. although regulations and legalization are made for crypto. the market will remain fluctuating, that's what makes cryptocurrency special afterall
Correct. It's pure bs when people talk about how regulations will make sure the market of Bitcoin will get stable.
If you want to see how much effect regulations have on a market, follow tech stocks; some of the biggest companies in the world lose/gain 20-30% of their value in a matter of a week or a month. Bitcoin isn't different, it's just the rate at which these fluctuations happen that gets people upset, but that for a market lacking liquidity is completely normal.
An example of recent EXTREME upwards volatility is MoneyGram. In one single day the stock price shot up from $1.45 to $3.88! It has a very small market cap, but this just mirrors what happens with altcoins here. The point is that there isn't really a difference between unregulated markets and regulated markets in terms of volatility. Liquidity is what you need.
Everything has risks. It is up to us if we are prepared to face it. There are many risk when you invested in cryptocurrencies because market is very volatile. If we know well what we get into we can minimize those risks. I invested in crypto because I'm more thinking that it will have a great value in the future mostly bitcoin.
I think the only thing we can risk with cryptocurrencies is money. You risk and you can lose if you make a wrong move, the right moves are highly rewarded with profit. Except for profit, we have many other rewards, more important than money itself is knowledge, with the knowledge you can earn money easily. We grow with crypto, we learn and we make friendships, we make contacts for a lifetime, maybe that`s more valuable than any money.
A lot of people are afraid that Bitcoin (Cryptocurrencies) are volatile and they are afraid that they don’t want to lose their money. I am also afraid of that sometimes, but without that volatility being there, it wouldn’t be as rewarding as it is. It’s all about risk, if you’re able to take that risk you’re either going to win or you lose and when any of these things happens, all you can do is just to endure all it all and nothing else. If Bitcoin wasn’t volatile I don’t even think it will get this far, cause what attracted people to start investing in Bitcoin is because they all thought they will make money from it.
In Cryptocurrency, we will indeed get a very high risk because of the volatility of the Crypto value that has never been stable. If we invest in Cryptocurrency, we really need to be ready with all that. however, behind this high risk, Cryptocurrency also provides us with tremendous opportunities to make a profit. because of Cryptocurrency price fluctuations that can rise quickly and very high.
when you want to do something risk will always be there, you just need to be able to face the risks that exist to be a successful person, without any risk you will not have experience and will not be able to learn from mistakes you have experienced.If we really care about risk, then risk also turns it back to you. Better to look it in a positive way rather than of thinking it negative cause that could be a hindrance to our success.
This is the same faith we need to have on the investment we are risking, although we have to use our head too when taking some certain risk, there are some risk that our instinct will clearly tell us is not worth taken, but we get stubborn to our instinct and get burnt by it. If we can take the right risk, then such risk will do more good to us than the damage it has with it.
Do you want people to put on headsets and listen to this podcast for 28:33 minutes? why would people do that? I think you should listen to the podcast and then summarize what they said and post in this thread the summary you made
if enter a lot of money in the crypto market, I believe that the volatility will not be very high as it is today, at least we will not see high increases and followed by very large falls
I would love to know your thoughts about where we are going and how you think the landscape will change.

I also hate listening to a very long Podcast, sometimes some opinions are out of topic, I prefer reading an article, but if it is a very people in the crypto like Satoshi I'll go for it, better just summarize it, going back to your question, until we don't have a regulation we will still going to have an ups and down, but I prefer unregulated because everyone will do his own assignment.
It would be better if you state the main purpose and idea of the podcast rather than make us listen to it before getting it. There's only one problem on cryptocurrency that maybe the reason ehy people are still debating if this is good or not and that is its volatility.
Risking our capital is not good at all time. Yet, we have seen many evidences of pay-outs and the money they received from investing, crypto is also a risky investment. There is no such thing as real rewards here. In fact, even rewards at the bounty campaigns are ruined by scam projects. If we just get rewards, probably the little one that suits to our bill fees.
Any sort of investment means you are taking a risk. Invest on a business and you have a risk of losing everything due to failed business. The same thing goes for crypto currencies. Invest on wrong time and sell at the wrong moment, you will be suffering huge loss. Lose track of your crypto currency investment, you will end up with nothing. Bigger the risk, higher the profit is! 
It's very simple to to understand the volatility keeps the prices of the cryptocurrencies to be risk and the same volatility makes the cryptocurrency to be much more profitable investment.
Right.People have always known cryptocurrencies as being volatile that makes it a very risky investment.But behind that volatility is what makes all investors and traders keeps on being thrilled knowing the price would suddenly goes up and gives them huge profit and sometimes goes down which gives them opportunity to buy even more for additional investment.

being volatile is not the problem and it can not be considered a "risk" in my opinion. take a look at bitcoin ,it has been volatile for all its life but it still is a very good currency and/or investment. the reason is because volatility is the product of having a small market on exchanges.
the problem is when volatility is not because of smallness of the market but it is because of manipulation. for example no matter how much money goes into altcoins they will remain highly risky because their volatility is product of pure manipulation which people call pump and dump.

The smaller the market for a coin the higher the probability of manipulation. That's why investing in Bitcoin is less risky than in any of them. But I agree that even for BTC the market is still too small for it to be stable. How big the market should be is a big question, but I think it should be at least 10 times bigger than it is now. And that's perfectly possible, by the way, because BTC is used by less than 1% of the world population still.
BBC recently did a interview around the volatility of cryptocurrencies. I think we are still so early in this industry but I would love to know your thoughts about where we are going and how you think the landscape will change.
This is a new platform and volatility is the face of the market and it is mainly because of the low liquidity we have, not sure how anyone could overcome that situation in this market, the change in landscape is dependent on how major countries are planning to regulate the market and the major factor would be how they will view anon currencies like Monero and other similar coins. We can only speculate now but in a couple of years we will have a clarity about the entire market.BBC recently did a interview around the volatility of cryptocurrencies.

We don`t get rewards if we don`t risks. After all, we are the one that will experience the result. No matter we lose, we always want to get up and fight. Cryptocurrency is a life changer. Many people are looking for this investment as a way to become rich. But they also see this as a great SCAM. Whatever we are perceiving in crypto industry, it will still remain cryptocurrency. We just part of their development which in vice versa, we are the stakeholders of crypto.
