Stocks or crypto: what and why

For a long time, I didn’t want to work with stocks. That’s the impression I had that this was something for retirement, and why would I, a young and promising person, need these assets with 10-15% per annum. But I changed my mind after a detailed study of this instrument. And here are the differences I found for myself.

1. When you buy a stock, you really buy a part of the company. All according to the precepts of grandfather Buffett. Against this background, crypto assets do not give you ownership rights. Owning crypto assets allows you to vote for changes within some projects, ensures the operation of networks, but in general does not give you the right to ownership.

2. There is less volatility in stocks. Initially, I perceived this as a minus, but no. After swings from + 50% -50% on crypto per day, you come to the stock market as an oasis where you can work calmly. But here, what is more important to whom.

3. Different volatility also affects profitability. Stocks are indeed a calmer instrument for people without upsets and nervous breakdowns, but you can wait for 10-15% for weeks. Crypto assets can show such results during the day.

Of course, these conclusions are based only on my personal experience. None of this is a financial recommendation, it is up to you to choose what you like best. Personally, I combine both, because balance and harmony are needed in everything.
