Topic: What is the risk of holding Bitcoin? - page 54. (Read 19120 times)
The biggest risk on bolding bitcoin is that it might happen that you may not get that much amount in returns that you used to buy because bitcoin value changes every second and let's suppose you buy 1 bitcoin at 5000$ and starts holding it and the price didn't go above 5000$ and it comes on 4500$ to 4800$ so at the time of selling you will wear the loss of 200-500$
And then I wonder why anyone would want to sell for loss if they understand what they are getting into the first place. Firstly, there is just one thing about bitcoin, it will most definitely rise back up, so selling for loss should not even be an option for someone who is holding for long time when you know that if you buy at a certain amount, even if it comes down, there is still a huge opportunity for it to rise up back in the next few days or even minute. 
There is a big risk of holding bitcoins because we don't hold the future, it's similar to gambling that you might lose or win in the end.
We bet based on our prediction and our prediction is based on our analysis, what I can see now is that bitcoin's potential is great as an investment due to big development that is happening now, more people will adopt and that makes bitcoin more valuable.

if you take into account this year's rally for bitcoin it does seem like there is minimal risk involved. but holding btc is the same as holding any other currency, so the risk is the same. don't do the mistake of thinking that bitcoin is never falling and always rising.
Security is the main thing which is a big risk for me, because there are hackers who are ready anytime to attack your account and if they succeed all your hard earn money will be lost in second sand you cannot claim form anybody. The blockchain controllers will not give any money although they are responsible for this tragedy. They should make the security system unbreakable and very strong that no one can reach be any means.
The risk associated in holding bitcoin comes in two ways, either there is a drop in price (negative), or a rise in price (positive). And every investors and holders of bitcoin waits for the positive rise in price for a good profit.
well i think there is no risk in holding bitcoin i believe that holding bitcoin is feally profitable even if the price will go down it will always go back to the normal price same as the past history in bitcoin.i believe that there are no negative feedback in holding bitcoin since holding bitcoin is really a simply strategy that anyone can gain without hustle they just need a patience on holding in order for them not to panic in every droping of price.What you are saying is what I am calling the positive effect of holding bitcoin. Cause if you sell with panic you might not loss everything, but won't feel happy when the price exceed what you sold yours for.

Uncertainty is the biggest point.
Uncertainty for its law,
uncertainty for it usabilit.
and the most important probably:
uncertainty for its price

the risk is if HODL the bitcoin in long term then the value derceases. every crypto the value hi and lo
In my opinion, there is no risk of holding bitcoin and that too for quite a long period of time if you are having control on your emotions. Risk will be there only in that case when you are bad in controlling your nerves at the tough situations. You need to remain cool and calm and you should have believe in bitcoin. Bitcoin will help you earn much more money than you ever expected to earn.Fear of holding btc, It may crash down to its original value because of its highly volatile, the second, it could be a big threat against theft or scam, The third , Im afraid bitcoins will be banned in our country.
Factors can be considered during holding bitcoin are losing of your keys wallet where all of your personal information data sheet has been erase or hacked and attacking system like virus. And one thing of holding bitcoin is when the time has a very low exchange value a big dump like i saidmakes it a double risk to you.
The only risk is that bitcoin will experience correction before it get to another height.
I think there is no risk in holding of bitcoin because bitcoin is an investment and keeping your investment in your account does not has any risk rather it is good on the other hand, because the price of bitcoin is increasing day by day and I am sure that in the near future it will cross 5000 dollars and in the next few years there will be only currency which will be only bitcoin. Holding is better than selling. Holding is profitable and not risky. 
I don't see any risk of holding bitcoin in short or in long term holding instead I see it more as an advantage as the more we hold the more its value will increase and we all know that right. Hold it as long as we can.
Yeah anything can happen to bitcoin as this is truly unpredictable, sure it can lose its value but big whales will never let that happen as they invested here a lot and the fact that they can somehow manipulated the price then take profit later on.

The biggest risk is that the price crashes to near zero, main reasons for this happening would be some sort of major government cut down trying to stop bitcoin or some major technical failure.
for now very little risk of losing Bitcoin.
but the biggest risk of losing Bitcoin is when the price drops dramatically.
maybe you will lose all your money.

Risks I can think of:
1. Risk will be coming from government hard handed regulation (banning bitcoin and other cryptos).
2. Rise of a new and better crypto than Bitcoin.
3. Too much forks that in the end diffuses bitcoin value.

I think that before investing in Bitcoin you should consider reading about Forex market and understand its logic, if you do so, I believe that you can understand by yourself the risks and potential of it. In addition if you invest with more than 6000$ it`s good to hold it but if you think to invest with less dollars I would recommend checking the alt coins for more profitable trade. But as most of the users have said nothin is guaranteed and if you fear from taking risks better don`t step here.
I think holding your bitcoin in long time is there possibility that lose its value or increase its value, because the value of bitcoin is an unstable and holding bitcoin might be better. Like with any investment, Bitcoin values can fluctuate. Indeed, the value of the currency has seen wild swings in price over its short existence.
I think there is no risk of being a bitcoin holder for a long time. or if have there is a decrease in the value price of the bitcoin currency. even more risk is to invest in anonymous sites like cloudmining sites.
the only risk on holding btc for a long term is you could lose all the chances you can exchange your coins at high price but the advantages of it was if the price of it keeps increasing by year you could make a lot of money from itself. But as for my experience holding btc for a long term is more productive than panic selling.
As I said in the title. I was interested in putting my money into Bitcoin because of the ever-increasing price.
But I want to know what the biggest risk is to hold Bitcoin?
First and most important price of Bitcoin will not increse unlimitly, it can not. It will reach point which will be top point, and after that it could only go down. No one know when will we see top price, and if you begin holding in wrong moment... well you know what will happen. Other than that, I don't see any other things that you shold be aware of. My advice to you would be to have price in mind, and when you come to that price you sell. But I want to know what the biggest risk is to hold Bitcoin?
