The HARSH RISKS of Cryptocurrency!

There are a few serious risks that have become clear in recent years. When Bitcoin was launched, they could do no wrong. The sky was the limit and for a while, this was true. But then, the following problems are some risks of crypto;

• Instability in value – The prices of Bitcoin once reached $20,000 for one coin back in 2017 and now, they are worth about $6,000. This drop may continue. It is hard to predict what the prices are like.
• Lack of acceptance– people are used to old banking systems and actual money. Getting them to use bitcoin is not very easy. Without acceptance, it will be hard to make it legal tender (in the U.S. Bitcoin is not regarded as legal tender.)
• Transactional Errors– Humans make mistakes and might transpose numbers, record them wrong and make errors that may be detected or not. Protections are not infallible.
• Theft– Hacking passwords and stealing cryptocurrency is something that happens. Hardware might even be corrupted and nothing stolen and you could lose a lot.

As you will find out, some kinks need fixing. When they iron them out, it just might be the future.
