Young adults having time ahead of them, investing by taking risks can make sense, provided that you only devote a small part of their savings.

bitcoin, Ethereum but also Polkadot, Avalanche, Cardano: cryptocurrencies make the generation Z dream more than booklet A. “Some prospects want to become millionaires in three months with cryptocurrencies. We explain to them that it will not happen” , Lance blunt Stéphane Van Huffel, Managing Director of the platform for Netinvestment Placement Solutions.

“But either you should not demonize cryptocurrencies: if you are interested, that you devote time to it, it is not a bad idea to invest a small fraction (10 % maximum) of your savings “To avoid disappointments, it is essential to focus on thirty actors registered with the Autorité des Marchés Financiers as” service providers on digital assets “, such as Bitpanda, Coinhouse, Stackinsat.
