You are right. Is important to let them know the risk behind Investing in Cryptocurrency. When I bring people into the Crypto world, and they want to invest. I do explain to them that the price of coins do rise and falls. Also teach them about been patience. If you don't do this things. You might end up been a bad person to them, when there is drop in price of those coins they Invested in. No doubt, Investing in Cryptocurrency is however profitable.
This is one of the reasons why I don't get too involved nowadays. No matter how much you educate them, if the price drops all of a sudden, or in case the coins get stolen, these guys are going to blame you. What the ordinary investor want is high returns with zero risk. But there is no such thing. You can opt for low risk assets, but then the returns will be low (US treasury bonds have interest rate of 1.3% per year). On the other hand, if you opt for high risk assets, then there is a chance that you will get good returns. But you should be open to the probability of your asset losing 50% of its value in a year.
Indeed, sometimes our good intentions to help educate others don't always go well, there are always people who blame us if they fail. If you really
don't want to be blamed for inviting people to invest in Bitcoin, what you're doing is right by not getting too involved. But I can't do that, because
I really want to help other people get benefit from Bitcoin like me, especially for my family and friends can feel the benefits of Bitcoin. I feel very
happy when I succeed in helping others, but if it doesn't go according to plan, I can only be patient and don't think too much about it. At least I've tried
to do my best to make Bitcoin more widely used by others.
