Topic: Would you rather make your investments in FIAT or CRYPTO? - page 4. (Read 1336 times)

To withstand this volatility and protect capital, any investor must have sufficient experience, risk management, and deal with technical and fundamental analyses to determine the correct time to buy and sell. Beginners who lack adequate experience and knowledge can keep fiat money until they gain enough experience and a good understanding of the market. Or that they initially invest an amount in Bitcoin that they can afford to lose, even if we assume $100, which is sufficient. There is no doubt that investing in cryptocurrencies, specifically Bitcoin, the most reliable currency on the market, is better than fiat money for many reasons, including the vast profits that any investor can reap in the long term. Even placing fiat money in banks or investing it in any business will be useless compared to Bitcoin returns, which have no limits and are significantly superior.

What you need to know is that all investments have risks and that cannot be avoided. For me, Bitcoin is still the best investment choice compared to real estate.

The difference is huge because real estate is not fungible, meaning if you choose poorly, you could end up in failure or a money hole. Unlike Bitcoin, it is fungible, meaning that one Bitcoin is the same as another Bitcoin in all respects. Real estate is the most visible asset you can own, so if the government wants to tax you more, they can raise property taxes. Worse yet, they could simply stop it.

Bitcoin is the right deal for long term investments, because history has shown consistent results along the years, while with altcoins the scenario is pretty unstable, as an outstanding altcoin today which is on top 10 rank of crypto market may fall considerable to top 50 or 100 positions after few years. Meanwhile, we have the assurance Bitcoin will be still performing on top 1, unbeaten by any of its pairs.

That is the comparison between Bitcoin and altcoins, but when we compare Bitcoin to fiat, the advantages for Bitcoin are even more impressive, as no fiat currencies show positive results on long term, as they are easily devalued by inflation. Even investments in fiat currency have shown negative profitability against inflation, therefore it should be completely avoided. If someone is willing to invest in something else besides Bitcoin, they should look for lands, properties or assets, but never fiat!

Back to the question: I made here https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/snipies-gambling-investment-test-5254959 a real and quite long experience about investment in Bitcoin and posted each week or so the real price in USD and mentioned in some posts the variations of the price...etc
It might help people to get a better idea about investing with cryptocurrencies.
For investment in FIAT, we all know that the funds will increase but inflation will increase too and it is about which one will increase more. For example, a 5% ROI with 10% inflation = loss even if the funds increased because simply you pay much to buy the same product. In cryptocurrencies there is an additional factory that's the price rise comparing to FIAT that will determine the most your gain.

Hello @Bitcoinpoly, you don't need to reply the individual posters of your thread the way you did because the mod would see it as spam and merged all replies as one. Next time, just qoute and reply to all users in a single post.

I've invested in altcoins but the results have not been too good. For now the ones that I'm holding unto are ETH and monero. But bitcoin is the real deal and if you can buy and hold long term, your investment is certainly going to yield good results.

We all need to understand that fiat devalues over time, therefore crypto investment has high potential of yielding good profit than fiat bank investments, you just have to do a proper research and understand the market, also take advantage of some exchanges with good APR in order to earn while you’re still holding your investments.

This is equally another good reason why we should rather invest in crypto than fiat. May I know if you have any particular form of investment you’re currently into within the crypto space apart from holding stable coins and BTC?

Regardless of the ones you’re investing on you still need to have a good understanding of what you’re into and also you should try to choose a good exchange where you will make your investments.

Great 👍🏼, which of the crypto investments did you have currently?

I like your point here, everyone investing in crypto need to DYOR and have a good understanding of the volatile market.

Indeed, we have to invest at the right time, but one could also say that if we get to know that the time is right then why would we not gamble at that time and make quick and easy money which we might not make in crypto? So, in simple words, we cannot time the market, but we can take measurements according to our analysis and can minimize our risk.

Risk management is full of different techniques to take pre-cautions while investing money but we can also take pre-cautions at gambling.

What I was trying to say here is, that we cannot do technical and fundamental analysis in gambling but we can do that in Crypto, in simple words, we don't have gambling charts, or past data on which we can perform our strategies to get something useful to be used in future for more profits.

I understand you anyways real estate is a good investment but you need to understand that it’s not everyone that loss while investing in crypto.

I’m sure he doesn’t just understand what we’re talking about, seriously even without the bull run I still make up to 7% APR interest on my holdings with Bitget shark fin and as BTC rise my assets are equally increasing, whereas most of my fiat investments in banks doesn’t get up to even 5% interest rate. I’m sure some people are still yet to invest in crypto because they’ve got too much confidence in fiat which is already failing most people now.

Definitely crypto. because if we hold our money in fiat then it will inflation and decrease value but if we hold our money in crypto then it can give us a good profit in long term holding. so if your question is about investment then my answer is i will invest my 30% money in crypto and 50% in different business 10% is gold and another 10% is fiat money for Daily expenses and emergency needed because every country have specific fiat money for country based regular using so we have to hold fiat to expenses

Buddy, we’re basically talking about investment and it has nothing to do with advertisement payment. Fiat investment does not yield much profit in compare to crypto and also the rate at which some countries fiat get devalued is really bad, it’s just better to invest in crypto. Regardless you also have to DYOR and do your due diligence because the crypto market is volatile but it can be to your advantage when you have good understanding of the crypto market.

Fiat devaluation is one of the major reasons why crypto has more edge ahead of fiat, also the fact that fiat investments has a little turnover when it comes to profit. Crypto investment has an high potential of yielding huge profit provided the volatility moves to your advantage. Nevertheless we need to understand that the technicalities required in crypto investment is far more than that of fiat investments. As a newbie it’s better you take your time to learn before you start any investment, newbie can also watch out for learning opportunities from top exchanges like the Bitget BlockChain4Youths program and different exchanges Academy.

This is a good side, obviously we all know there are lots of profits in crypto investments than fiat investments in banks. All we just need to do is to invest at the right time.

Investing in cryptocurrencies, despite their inherent volatility, offers unique advantages in today's financial landscape. While the traditional fiat system is stable, it often struggles to keep pace with rapidly changing economic realities. Cryptocurrencies, on the other hand, have shown tremendous potential for growth and innovation.

Crypto investments have the potential for substantial gains, outstripping traditional financial instruments. The decentralization of cryptocurrencies reduces the control of central authorities, making them less susceptible to manipulation and inflation.

Moreover, cryptocurrencies can provide accessibility to financial services for the unbanked and underbanked, fostering financial inclusion globally. Blockchain technology, the backbone of most cryptocurrencies, offers transparency and security, mitigating fraud and enhancing trust.

Though the crypto market is volatile, it rewards those who research and diversify their portfolios wisely. Consider your risk tolerance and invest responsibly. Cryptocurrencies offer the potential for significant returns, but due diligence and a long-term perspective are key. Ultimately, combining both fiat and crypto in your investment strategy can provide a balanced approach to hedge against market fluctuations.

We are getting into bull market and you are saying fiat is way better? What advertisement payments got to do with Bitcoin? Mind you, we are here talking about investments.

Your clear separation of direct crypto purchases from using crypto as a way to invest in other things is perfect. Let us make this clearer. Blockchain-based cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and some others have seen huge gains over time, making them look like an investor's dream. Despite this, it is important to be aware of the risks, especially since the market is based on speculation. Some people see volatility as a sign of chance, but its also deceptive. Its common for big benefits to come with big risks. One idea is to diversify your assets.

And finally, using fiat currency to start traditional businesses gives you more cash and, well, fewer problems. The cryptocurrency ecosystem isnt developed enough for businesses to spend easily. To top it all off, the rules and regulations in many countries make it even harder to access. Sorting through those murky waters is almost like a pointless activity. While you're thinking about starting a business, stick with cash for now. Its generally believed for a reason.
