Bitcoin is indeed risky. But bank investments are risky too. In our country (coz I'm not sure if this exist in other countries). When you have a large amount on your account they will call you and ask you if you want to invest, minimum of 20,000 Php (or 400 USD). They will propose some investment plans where there is a choice of low, medium, or high risk investment. When you choose the high risk there is a chance to lose or gain 100% of your investment (Medium is 75% and low is 50% if I remember it right). It doesn't make sense to me, it sounds like a scam, they will invest using your money and you don't have any control to it. That is why I like bitcoin more, coz Though it is risky and it's very volatile, you have full control on your investment.
What do you guys think?
Let us compare the two options that we have. First of all, the bank investment. Well all we know that in bank we can have interest in the given period of time. And it is going up or increase even though through small amount. On the other hand, bitcoin, which is known becoming a volatile digital currency. We do not have the assurance that the price goes up or increase once we invest on it. Given a period of time, we do not know if it surely gains a profit unlike in bank investment.
