Keep your wallets secured. Hackers fear still there. I dont think anything else will challenge holding bitcoins. Many regions are yet to allow bitcoins used. This may be said as illegal. It depends on people how they move against it.

Investing and holding bitcoin is risky because we can never know if the price of bitcoin will continue to grow or it will suddenly drop down and not recover again then all your money in investment will be gone. And one thing is the possibility of your bitcoin wallet to be hacked if not highly secured. But no risk no gain so you just have to be more cautious and knowledgeable to know when to place and withdraw your bitcoin.

Its not easy for anyone to hack your bitcoin wallet if you have taken preventive measures and if you have 2FA as I save my bitcoins in electrum wallet and I haven't faced any issue related to security and safety of my coins so far and I don't see any risk in holding bitcoins for long term as price will be much higher after next couple of years.

Everything that rises so high, eventually will fall to real pit. And it'd be better if you get your profit before that. Greed isn't a good advisor, and every risk should have a solid basis.

Bitcoin is volatile, the surprising way how it pumps may also happen the same way in dumping. Bitcoin value changes from time to time, it actually rises to $6000 dollar by now. Personally I still put my trust with bitcoin even knowing the risk. Bitcoin have been tested for more years and still expecting to rise. Seeing the current demand, we could expect greater value in the next months.

I know that we all believe in bitcoin and it's technology. But we should accept that investing in crypto is high risk and thats why its so expensive. More risk more earning

In every investment you have face the risk, without risk it is not possible to find the gain from investment you are going. The best suggestion is always invest where if you loose that it should effect your personal needs.
Risk is just something we cannot stop facing in any investment. The difference is that the risks are usually higher than each other.

Interestingly, the larger the risks, the more the possibility of gaining even more. Bitcoin has been around now for years and that apparently has reduced the risk from high to mid risk investment and that is something and only time will tell whether those who took that huge risk today will be happy they did later in future or not.
I think the only risk in bitcoin holding today is the volatility in the price. The price is not stable and due to some rival statements the value of bitcoin fell down to about 2900 dollars from that of 4600 dollars. Now the price is again on that previous point but still the people are afraid of losing their investment due to the volatility in the bitcoin price. On the other hand bitcoin is the most trustable coin all over the world.

The risk is when the government ban Bitcoin and prohibits to use it. Another risk is high fluctuation of Bitcoin that can cause losses of up to 50% or more of our investment.
But this risk is unlikely to happen because Bitcoin is getting increasingly popular and even some countries like Japan have legalized Bitcoin.
every trading have a risk but there is no guarantee of anything that will give you profit. just like that in holding bitcoin there is no such risk as usual rate of bitcoin is varying with time but mostly rate of bitcoin is increasing so i think in holding bitcoin there is no risk.

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?
Holding bitcoins is not risky, many investors are converting their cash to bitcoin for them to hold it because they know that bitcoin is very secured currency unlike other currency, so they know they will earn a huge profit on it just by holding it and that is the reason why bitcoin price continue increasing as we saw in its market capitalization.
There is NO risk in holding bitcoin as we can see that bitcoins price is ever increasing and more and more people are getting attracted to bitcoin and they need more bitcoin to have great profit. due to its increasing popularity its price is also increasing and the people who will hold it will gain a tremendous amount of profit from the bitcoin in some years or the can also get a huge profit in some months \. so holding bitcoin  is a secret every bitcoin investor and holder will have to make there profit from bitcoin more in the digital world.

Seems you haven't read about the bitcoin yet because you lack the basic knowledge of cryptos and bitcoins. Its quite simple and everyone knows that what could be the risk of investing in a currency having volatile price. You may suffer a loss, it could be big loss or small one. So you should be mentally well prepare while investing in cryptos and bitcoin to bear a loss.

There's always that. Everyone loses every now and then even those who we consider as experts. That risk is accepted by everyone dealing in trades. What many are anxious about is how long this will continue. Many are saying that bitcoin is a bubble waiting to pop and that time is what many people are trying to prepare for

The risk of holding Bitcoin for over a period of time is that they is a tendency of you losing your money any time the market value of Bitcoin depreciate. And this usually happen to Bitcoin and not just Bitcoin alone but other altcoins have experienced the same lost in their value. Your risk of holding Bitcoin will be high if you are a panic seller, because you might end up selling at lost during the time of a serious decline in the market value of Bitcoin maybe course as a result of technical or serious fundamental problems against Bitcoin.

The biggest risk that I know that everybody deosn't want to happen is where btc will fall below $1000. This will hurt investors who just recently bought bitcoin and it will cause a huge panic and it could be a 50/50 chance of survival for bitcoin. But I don't see any signs or any events coming that will trigger this.

Its hard to believe that price will fall that low now as its history now and we will never see that low price of bitcoins in near future and even if something goes wrong I don't think it will go below the price of $4k so there is nothing to worry and the price of bitcoin will continue to increase in future so its always good to hold your bitcoins without any pressure.

The big investors they hold a large amount of bitcoin and they expect its price to reach a high value in the next few years. And it seems they are sure about this, and some others hold it for the upcoming hard fork event with the desire to get more bitcoin gold.
