At a basic level, any adult can invest in cryptocurrencies, whether they are looking for the best crypto South Africa can offer or the fastest-growing global crypto.

However, crypto investment is not something that is for everyone, and those without the necessary resources and expertise are strongly warned against this type of investment.

This article will explore the factors determining whether someone can invest in cryptocurrencies and what they need to know before investing.

The first factor determining whether someone can invest in cryptocurrencies is age. In most countries, the legal age for investing is 18 years. If someone is below 18, they cannot invest in cryptocurrencies without the consent of their legal guardian.

In addition to age, there are also legal requirements that investors must meet to invest in cryptocurrencies. These requirements vary from country to country. In some countries, investors must register with regulatory authorities before investing in cryptocurrencies. In other countries, there are no specific regulations governing cryptocurrency investments.

Financial resources are the second factor determining whether someone can invest in cryptocurrencies.

Cryptocurrency investments require a certain level of financial stability. Investors need disposable income they can afford to lose if the investment does not go as planned.

Therefore, if someone lives paycheck to paycheck, they may be unable to invest in cryptocurrencies.

Cryptocurrency is typical of modern technological developments that quickly become well-known yet not fully understood by most potential investors.

It is hard enough to invest in stocks when you don’t understand what the company you are investing in makes or provides.

Still, when it comes to a new form of investment like cryptocurrency, it is essential that you at least understand the basics, particularly how the blockchain works. You should not be investing in crypto if you don’t understand the principles of its operations.

Investment knowledge is the third factor determining whether someone can invest in cryptocurrencies.

Cryptocurrencies are a highly volatile asset class, and investing in them can be risky. Therefore, investors need to understand the market and the factors that influence it, including economic, psychological, and legal.

For instance, in 2022 alone, there were multiple cryptocurrency failures. Terra/UST was the most notable currency to crash, but crypto businesses FTX, Celcius, BlockFi, and several other crypto investment companies all faced bankruptcy or liquidation.

In the US, there will likely be new laws and regulations governing crypto this year, and investors need to be updated on what is happening in the crypto sector and what the risks are likely to be.
Investors should also be aware of the risks involved in investing in cryptocurrencies.

The market is highly unpredictable, and investors may lose a significant portion of their investment if the market experiences a downturn. Therefore, investors need to have a solid understanding of the risks involved before investing.
