I never like people with only simple thinking "get rich quick" on crypto scene. Put that aside, risk equal with profit. If people understand how much risk is for a crypto investment then that's their choice, you can't force them to use it as a different means.
the truth is that in this market only those people who have learned how to take risks - make money! The person who has learned to choose the right tools in which to invest money
Your last statement has defended the former part of it. Taking risk should come with care. Do not ever take risk over a project yu know nothing of. You can only control what you know and you can only choose what you know. So, learning to make the right choice is the most important thing, which is now followed by the decision to take a risk.
