RE: Everybody who is freaking out of cryptocurrency market

in #cryptocurrency7 years ago

dude.... you so missed the point. my point is that, as with any investment there are inherant risks involved. As bitcoin is not as well established as a currency yet, it is a more volitile and riskier investment. for that reason the rewards are greater for those who ride it out and buy on the dips... you may not agree with my statement, but as it relates to investing it is correct. were i holding any BTC today i would be holding, and might even be tempted to buy more...as it appears to simply be a pullback on profits, if it were to continue down below it's last known support level then i might be a little worried...

Oh no, I completely agree with your point! I just believe your comparison to companies as Amazon and Apple is wrong and brings other people in a wrong reasoning. The market's value/price work differently.

i am not comparing BTC to Apple/Amazon... they are only used as a reference to why investing in what seems like a sure thing isn't always a good thing. at the time when XYBR announced, it looked like a sure thing until Apple/Amazon announced a few weeks later.... you are correct in that currencies trade differently than equities. you're reading too much emphasis into the Apple/Amazon/XYBR reference... Currently Crypto-currencies are a risk/reward trade and due to their high volatility should be traded as such. add to the mix that most BTC exchange transfers are not in real time and you have an even higher risk to reward ratio.... I'm not saying people shouldn't buy Crypto's...only that they should be careful and trade them with caution.
