How can I ensure my Cryptocurrency investments are secure?

Understanding Cryptocurrency Risks in 2025

To ensure security, use a hardware wallet or a secure software wallet with strong encryption and two-factor authentication. Regularly update your passwords and be cautious about sharing personal information online. Always keep a backup of your private keys or seed phrase in a secure location.

Risk management you can actually use

  • Risk per trade = account equity × risk% (e.g., 1%).
  • Position size = risk per trade ÷ (entry − stop).
  • Expectancy (E) = win_rate × avg_win − (1−win_rate) × avg_loss.
  • Cap total portfolio risk; journal every trade.

A quick example

Account $10,000, risk 1% → $100 risk per trade. Entry $50, stop $48 → $2 risk/share → 50 shares. Target $54 (2R). If stopped, −$100; if target hits, +$200 (before costs).

How much capital do I need to start?

Use an amount you can afford to lose while learning a repeatable process.

How do I size positions?

Decide a fixed risk % per trade, then divide by the price distance to your stop.

How often should I review?

Match your timeframe: DAIly/weekly for swing; weekly/monthly for long-term.

What goes into my journal?

Thesis, entry/exit, risk (R), emotions, result, next improvement.
