I completely agree that Bitcoin is very high-risk. Even if you respect its "dangers", you could still lose whatever you decided to risk.
Which is why you don't risk more than you can afford to lose. People in the Bitcoin community says these words over and over again.
Nonetheless, if you're ideologically sympathetic to Bitcoin, just because you don't risk more than you can afford to lose doesn't mean you don't risk anything. Most of us can afford to put in a few hundred, or (depending on net work) even a few thousand.
