Risks

This shows that even physical investments can be just as risky if not more depending on the circumstances.

Anything that has a potential to gain profit has its risk. That's why everything that physical and digital investments have their respective risk. You have to deal it on your own when it's very risky at all and that's the reason if you like digital assets, you need to take the risk and if not, you've got to learn how to accept and study it. But, if you don't like risk, you're good to save money without having any taking risk but it will just be consumed by the inflation and so, little risk is still risk if it's within the crypto market or even the others.

I think such people definitely need to change their mindset, there is nothing in the world where there is no risk, everything involves risk, and success can never be achieved without risk.
One thing to keep in mind, those who are never willing to take risks, then what will they achieve success by doing? It is never possible to achieve great success by saving alone.
Rather, if you save, your savings will only decrease in value over time due to currency memory, and you will never be able to achieve real profit from it.
To achieve success in life, you must take risks, take steps with a brave mindset, patience, research and risk management.
When we talk about Bitcoin investment, it certainly involves risk, but through risk management, it is possible to reduce its risk a lot in the long run, by maintaining the right mindset about Bitcoin, and believing in its long-term success, if an investment is managed effectively here, there will be a very high possibility of achieving success through it.

It's quite big of a risk, we just need to make sure it's not that much of a trouble. Obviously a lot of people end up with a lot of trouble when they do not calculate the risks, but they have to do better job. I think it's clear that we are going to learn more about taking risks when we do take risks, we are going to learn how much is a lot and how much is little and learn more about that. It's not an easy task, but it can be done, and it is not going to change a lot for you on the long run.

This is why it's important that we are going to be careful with what we are dealing with, too much risk will take away more than it promises. Like you wouldn't risk 1 million dollars for 100 dollars right? So find the right balance for it.

I am just trying to figure out what comes to people's minds (especially newbies) when the thought of trading or investing in bitcoin comes to their minds. Obviously, the thoughts are majorly how to make profits from bitcoin. While they focus on how to make money, they pay less attention to effective ways to minimise risks. If they weighed the risks against the profits they would be getting, they would have advised themselves better. Risks management is not something that should be joked with, it should be given same priority as profit maximisation.

All investments have their own individual risks. But the more risky an investment is, then the more you should be wiser and smarter in managing your investment. Best example is crypto investment where you have to be careful with your decision making because one wrong decision will put your investment at risk. But even in physical investment you have to be cautious as well because the more you’re not inclined to the kind of investment you are putting your money, the more you become prone to mistakes and losses in the end.

Crypto is high risk and that's true, high risk because of volatility. But this is what we like on it because if it moves a lot to the top, we expect that it's going to fall a lot as well. The higher risk is with the altcoins, the memecoins and other coins who have just been launched to the market. Some traders like to watch them for that because that's where they are good at, sniping some altcoins that are new to the market which should get a high liquidity because of being new.

People who don't understand crypto fully think that volatility is a disadvantage, but if they search well, they would see that volatility is infact the reason they are all trooping in to trade and invest in crypto. If fiat has this volatile feature like crypto (Bitcoin specifically), I believe they will rush to invest in fiat as well.

They only see volatility as a disadvantage when the price of bitcoin goes down. They obviously have alot to learn about Bitcoin.

When people talk about risk many quickly point to cryptocurrency and forex as the biggest risks anyone can take. However this mid-year August 2025 was a real eye opener. For example my wife invested a lot of time and money in beans this year but when the market crashed the losses were heavy. This shows that even physical investments can be just as risky if not more depending on the circumstances.

Any type of investment you come across today has its cons and you can only chose to invest in it or not based on how your risk management goals are. Any investment that is worth investing into has its drawbacks and that’s what makes them worthy of being invested into. I haven’t come across an investment that is worth investing into and totally risk free. It will only be an investment that is full of red flags and persuasive promises that looks too good to be true to have a totally risk free terminology. If you’re really going to make an investment decision, it is important to also calculate the risk factor involved if you’ll be able to manage it well, if not, you shouldn’t embark on such investment because anything can happen.

Yeah, when I've talked to my friends telling them how volatile crypto is. They have that different face of dismay as their reaction. But I've tried to explained it to them that it's not a disadvantage but more of an advantage if they learn more of it. Well, fiat is different and there are investment products that's only allowed to invest there. But if we have stable coins, that's what is fiat for. You're right, if they know that something already trusting to them, they'll invest just as fiat but the whole situation is different from it.

I think that you're right. Because even in the digital age where services are free, there's also the risk and that's our data being taken by them to the advertisers. And so, the risk has always comes with convenience that we take. But I have nothing against those people that are not willing to take any risk because that's how they've been built. They are not going to take any risk for as long as they can and are already happy with their situations.

So I would say that it's all normal to take risk in every investments, although the risk could be different, but still boils down on trying and getting out of our comfort zone and let go of all doubts. If someone fails then, at least you have learn your lessons and then you have to get up again. ..

It's too thoughtless to rely on luck alone. Additional measures need to be taken in case the deal does not go according to your scenario. And if we see how a farmer insures his crop, a trader should do the same, for example, by placing a stop loss to limit the resulting loss.

Taking risks is a way for us to enter trading, so we shouldn't be forced to, and we should be prepared for losses. However, we must assess our own risk tolerance, so we can implement certain limits to prevent losses we're not prepared for.

One way is to implement stop-loss. This is a good method, not just stop-loss; it can also be implemented to minimize greed. Greed is also a threat that we must minimize as much as possible.

But there could be some mitigation risk. Like if we talk about Bitcoin, then the risk could be minimized if we just do DCA and accumulate it in years and look at the bigger picture. For meme coins and shit coins though, it might be very different as that risk is really too high and if you are a newbie, you might be falling for the trap of this sort of coins. So if you are not that kind of a investor, then stay away from them. Maybe invest small money only if you wish to experience. But don't totally rely on the success of others are everyone could be very different in terms of our fate in this market.

Everything that involves investing money has it's own risk be it investment in cryptocurrency, real estate and others that's why it is advisable for an investor to have a good source of income, have back up funds and to invest amounts that he can be able to willing to invest in any kinds of business. It is not always that easy to start and become big without taking some risk but not all investments will end in profit that's why you should be prepared for the good and bad during any investment.

Yea you're right, since we know about this then our risk should be calculated, we shouldn't take risk just because we had that all the investment you mentioned has risk in them so for that we can risk in anything, money is very difficult to make so if we must send our money errand in terms of investment, we must make sure that such investment is realistic, just like you mention cryptocurrency, we can invest in Bitcoin because of how trusted it is and it's futuristic concepts

I agree that a potential investor should figure out his or her discretionary income to invest with to avoid any form of stress while investing in any business, there's no need for investors to make things bulky for themselves, it will also be very nice have some emergency funds set aside while investing to Carter urgent needs but I love where you said investor should invest with what they can afford instead of investing there all and if anything happens tomorrow, they will start regretting their actions, it is better slow and steady than losing it all in name of being aggressive.

Yeah, there is a HUGE difference in risk between DCA purchasing and long term holding bitcoin versus quick pump and dump of some meme coin. That is something people do realize, not like they are idiots (well some might be) but they just don't see that as something that changes for long term. Meaning, they know the risk is lower, but they also know the return is lower, so they risk losing all their money, for a chance to make some good return once. If they can do that, then they can get a great return.

Most people don't do that, and they lose it and that is why they end up with something that could change it for the long term. If they do that, then we are going to end up with some amazing returns eventually.

I've avoided memecoins and never got a chance to get back on it. I've learned it already that I should invest more with Bitcoin because of its stability and we've seen it all. The hype is a serious threat or could be a blessing but for the majority, it's a threat and a problem that had made a lot of them lose more money because they have followed the crowd and thought that money is coming with them. But they didn't know that they're the ones bringing money to the crowd that they are following and that's many of their ports there got slaughtered.

You're right: anything that can generate profits carries risks. Investing or trading certainly carries risks. However, these risks can be minimized depending on the type of person we're engaging in. With sufficient knowledge and experience, it's possible to minimize these risks.
Furthermore, these risks can provide us with lessons and serve as a basis for evaluation to prevent future mistakes.

This shows that even physical investments can be just as risky if not more depending on the circumstances.

The truth is that no investment is risk free, wether it's investment in digital asset or investment in agriculture or other fields like real estate, gold and even aluminum, they all have their own risk attached to it, that's why it's adviceable to invest what you can afford to lose, so that if your investment doesn't goes as planned, you wouldn't contemplate suicide or break down financially.

Another major thing most investors fail to understand is that you need to be very conversant with an asset or a business before engaging or risking your money, but mostly lads just invest blindly without even knowing how to go about it, but generally, risk is part of life and a part and parcel of anything economically in this life, not just in the digital space.

Risk is everywhere, with your example if you trying to buy for the use of the business you need to consider the risk if it becomes a trend or good for the customers, but the difference is the time it matters and the factors it affects, with the crypto its more volatile than the forex trading, in terms of investment with the goods and consumables its also risk if you didnt make it flow or exchange immediately because of the supply and demand concept so if the beans it too much have demand considered already a lose or make a cut lose instead not getting back with your capital. So risk is every where depends on how you will handle and how you will manage.
