While it's good to diversify your assets in to more investments, some people just don't have the financial capacity to do so. If you have little to invest, some try their luck in crypto which has as of last year gained more than other investments. If they are successful, then they can diversify.

If you have very little to invest, you should avoid crypto. Crypto is a very risky asset class, and there is a chance that you might lose your capital. If you have only very little to invest, you can imagine what the consequences of that can be.

Nothing lasts forever
I invest in Crypto because I started my investments with it and the returns crypto gives is no match to the returns that stock provide us.
The time span is short in crypto for bigger returns but it takes a while for stocks to give out such returns. The volatility in crypto is much bigger than the stock. These are the reasons why many including me prefer to invest in crypto rather than in the stock market.

As some others have already said, everyone should diversify their portfolio, but sometimes people think that trading cryptos is a quick rich scheme...
This was maybe true in 2017, this year it is a bit more difficult to really gain profit.
I would only invest money in cryptos that you are willing to loose.

The market is volatile so obviously, you will not earn profit immediately and you may lose money as well but the best thing to do is just hold your coin until the market prices pumps up.

Hello everyone!

I am talking to quite a few people who are investing in crypto and notice that very few have a broader investment spectrum. People either focus on ICOs, some small caps, others play it safe and stick with the high caps or established projects.

But hold on, is the later really playing save? In my view, even with high caps you will still be massively exposed as you have all of your eggs in one basket. Namely in the same market. Different eggs in size and colour but all eggs. If the basket falls, your eggs still get crushed.

As mentioned before, I am trading stocks for over a decade and crypto since last year. I also agree that is easier to trade stocks, simply because the volume is so high that a few whales or big investors cannot influence the market as easily by dumping their shares. The stock market is also much more regulated, if someone is being caught doing washtrading or spoofing the consequences are dramatic. In the crypto world manipulation is something that poses a constant threat. Just look at the market now, the recent dip is not tight to any event, news or even fud. 25 billion just disappeared and people are wondering wht‘s going on.

Long story short, it‘s great you have a diversification plan but also think about moving assets from crypto to fiat, stocks or raw materials and precious metals.

What is your view on that?

Great point on that actually.
As i also invest not only in crypto, due to my lack of knowledge in stocks and forex market i don't go there.
But i use other sources of income like investment companies which pay you weekly/monthly income, partnership programs and so on.
I do admit that most of such called "investment companies" are usually pyramid schemes and they don't last that long, but as long as you able to select and enter proper companies at their very start, you be able to make a good profit to live from it.
What i also plan to do is enter forex market to make trades by the signals of my friend, who is already making money there over past 9 years, but first i need to accumulate at least 20k $ to be able to perform good trades with market shoulder.
So yes, diversification is the best thing, no matter how much you can earn with bitcoin or any other alt, always diversify.

It is just your opinion because you look from your own point of view which is based on your understanding of trading and your strategy. As you know there are plenty of various approaches on trading and a diversification is not an excellent decision in all occasions (for example, an arbitrage strategy). Moreover there are various types of traders where some of them are conservative and they use a diversification but others are quite risky and they do not use a diversification not tot decrease their expectation in case of a successful outcome but, of course, it is a risky strategy where it is possible to lose much

I think it can be a consideration to diversify your investment into fiat investment, for me crypto investment is the greatest, if we see it from the history chart, no fiat investment can rise as fast as crypto, the risk of crypto investment is big but the reward also big, so it's depend on how people want to play with their investment, if they want to play safe then go to fiat investment and diversify it into real estate, raw material or precious metal, but if the people dare to take risk then go for crypto, for now the crypto market is still booming so many of them are interested to invest in crypto, and beside of the value, crypto also got anonymity and decentralised feature, so you don't need to pay any tax

For me, everyone invest in the crypto market because, this is the only investment that zero value of tax. Has a good profit during the grace period of trading coins. Can purchase using a digital payment with no extra charges.

You got that one mate.about the taxation since this community requires no taxes thats why many are investing here.and another thing is the privilege of having control of our own money that theres no third party interference,by this we can feel more secure and free .so don't be amaze of  everyone is investing only in cryptocurrency

Probably because they have received a lot of profit from cryptocurrency, they understand completely about cryptocurrency, so they are confident to invest in it. They do not want to invest in something they don't know (stocks, ...). And sometimes I think investing in crypto is easier than investing in stocks.

I think people are drawn to the cryptocurrency market since it's the current growing
trend. A popular and successful one if I may add. A lot of people have profit from it and
it's worth the time, money and effort. It's accessible and easy to get into, there is so
much potential and it's open for everyone.

It is true that not everyone will agree with this opinion but this is the universal truth that most of the people investing in any single investment class never make much profit (especially in the short term). Diversification is the key to spread the risk across multiple investment classes so that the situation won't change overnight if there is some issue with any particular sector where the money is invested. I believe that one should always diversify his investment across multiple classes (not just the sectors) unless he has 100% loss-bearing capacity.

I do not , I diversify and invest in many things, well at least back when I had any money to invest, now I just watch my investments and not put any further in. I have stocks from too many different companies, I have bonds, I have gold, I have foreign currencies to my country.

I basically do all I can do actually have a diversified portfolio and yes of course crypto is a huge part of it, actually biggest investment I have, hence it does get affected horribly when these bear markets hits however I still am doing well thanks to other investments, I am down a lot but still not down as much as I could have been if I invested only on crypto.

Every balanced portfolio should have a lower percentage of investments into high risk commodities like Crypto currencies and a larger percentage of investments into low risk investments or commodities and property.

If you are going to add more "eggs" into your high risk investments, then you will increase the overall risk. High risk investments tends to give higher yield, but it is not guaranteed.

Diversification is good, but you should spread it out over more low risk investments.  Wink

As they invest, they realize that cryptos are worth spending in, because they have a stable future, and they are not subject to bank and state management.

Bitcoin is a great source of income and for your future purpose we can use them for long term without any worries.Its work more better than any banks.I know there's some disadvantages to but we have to ignore them and focus on crypto currencies.

Sooner or later tax will be imposed by the government for cryptocurrency users. Investing in cryptocurrency will become mainstreams in the next few years. The popularity of cryptocurrency pads in 2017 will be the beginning for the common people to know what cryptocurrency is, and I'm sure they come here to invest in and after that they will use cryptocurrency as a place for easy payment or remittance, the concept will be a plus for cryptocurrency.

Because it is so easy to invest in crypto anyone can do it and a lot of people
do indeed think there are riches to be made quickly.

I dont care about the stock markets. I am in crypto for 2 reasons, for what
it was created for as a payment system (still to gain more useage) and as
a vehicle other than a bank to keep some savings for the future.

Stock markets are difficult for a lot of people to access and there are commission
fees to be paid and capital gains taxes to be paid because stocks cannot be used
for anything else so they have to be bought or sold.

Gold and Silver for example are worth considering as an addition.

First of all this is a crypto currency forum so people from here will more involved in the crypto currency investments than any other investments like trading,real estate and gold.And there are different kind of investors in the crypto investment as well like short term and long term investor and traders.Id someone looking to earn profits in short term then they will go with ICOs and cheap coins and the people who want money in long term then they will go with bitcoin and other well know coins.

Today,cryptos are the only type of investment which could give enormous ROI even though the risk is high.People have seen many to become millionaires with the help of cryptos and so they just don't want to miss their opportunity.Chances are there for some eggs to fall and crash but not the whole basket.The craziness for cryptos would still continue on and on.

Most people have ruled out the merits they will get from cryptocurrency investment. Hence they tend to do massive investment into crypto hoping to get more money than expected from investment in banks.
