Short-term volatility is common in the cryptocurrency market. While that does translate to higher risk versus other investment instruments, there’s also plenty of upside potential. The past year, for instance, saw the cryptocurrency market’s total valuation briefly top $3 trillion for the first time.

Sadly, the outcries of the community did nothing back then.
