When investing in standard markets, such as the stock market, it’s typical to see them fluctuate by 1% or 2% on a daily basis. In the cryptocurrency market, on the other hand, you wouldn’t be surprised to see price variations higher than 10% in a single day.
Because of that, cryptocurrencies can be an option to diversify your investment portfolio, acting as a plan B for your traditional assets. However, cryptos aren’t usually recommended for people who are investing short-term.
Cryptocurrencies are a risky asset class, which should be carefully researched and evaluated by anyone thinking about purchasing a particular cryptocurrency. Please remember that diversification is not an investment strategy without risk, and in certain circumstances, it may not fit your investment objectives.
Cryptocurrencies can be an interesting option when it comes to portfolio diversification, and their value may increase significantly as more people begin to use them as a cheaper and faster way of exchanging money.

Investors should consider the investment objectives, risks, and charges and expenses of an Exchange Traded Fund ("ETF") carefully before investing. Before investing in any ETF, you should consider its investment objective, risks, charges and expenses. Contact us at support@passfolio.us for a prospectus containing this information. Read it carefully. ETFs are subject to market fluctuation and the risks of their underlying investments. ETFs are subject to management fees and other expenses. ETF shares are bought and sold at market price, which may be higher or lower than their NAV, and are not individually redeemed from the fund. Investment returns will fluctuate and are subject to market volatility, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed or sold, may be worth more or less than their original cost. ETFs are subject to risks similar to those of stocks. Some specialized exchange-traded funds can be subject to additional market risks. Leveraged and inverse exchange-traded products are not designed for buy and hold investors or investors who do not intend to manage their investment on a daily basis. These products are for sophisticated investors who understand their risks (including the effect of daily compounding of leveraged investment results), and who intend to actively monitor and manage their investments on a daily basis.
Be sure to consider your own financial situation, perform thorough research, and consult with a qualified tax professional before making any investment decisions concerning REITs. Investments in REITs and other real estate securities are subject to the same risks as direct investments in real estate. The real estate industry is particularly sensitive to economic downturns.
Where an investment is denominated in a currency other than the investor’s currency, changes in rates of exchange may have an adverse effect on the value, price of, or income derived from the investment.
