I think bitcoin does have a high risk and profit earned will depend on our knowledge and skills in investment or trading, if we are lucky then it will get a big profit but if we are wrong in taking a decision then the profit we get will be a little even can be a loss
Higher risk, higher profit. Question from does bitcoin have more risk or benefits doesn`t have much sense, he can ask early adopters, or to say to ask new billionaires. Is it risk to invest now in bitcoins? Its not risky if you plan to hold for long time, if you plan to earn fast than can be risky, price can drop more in upcoming months, but for few years prices will be very high, so its not about the risk, its about how long you are ready to wait.
