Well there is no denying that bitcoin is very much risky especially that it is a digital currency and has a high volatility. however, despite all these, i still can see so much benefits from bitcoin like its capacity to become an investment and at the same time a currency. other than that, it can also be used in certain transactions and a way to transfer money securely.
I believe that bitcoin is not much risky as what they said. The risk of the bitcoin is really depend on the decision of its holder. It is really risky if we don't have big patience and we can easily drop it down during we got panic, if we don't have a strong hands to hold and sell it with a verry cheap price we are surely lose an amount of profit and that's why bitcoin called risky, but I think the bitcoin risk is really depend on us.
