A Note on Risk

Risk is relative. The risk assessment on this table is based on the relative risk of holding cryptocurrency as an investment. As an investment cryptocurrency is high risk. Staking through Coinbase for example is low risk compared to staking a newly minted memecoin but is still high risk compared to other investment classes.

One other important point to note is that although a platform may be rated as low risk investors must remember that the higher the return on offer the higher the risk. In other words low risk platforms can offer high risk investments.
