    We wrote this guide to give you useful information about investing, but it’s not personal advice. If you’re unsure if investing’s right for you or where to invest, please ask for advice. Unlike the security offered by cash, the value of investments can fall as well as rise so you could get back less than you invest. Cryptocurrencies are very high risk, you could lose everything you put in.
