Crypto - The basics of investing

I love all the responses. Crypto is not for everyone right now, I do think it will be at some point. If I was new to crypto I would invest 75% in BTC and 25% in some other coins and then come back a year from now. I would be very confident in saying that your gains would double or even triple that of the stock market. I will have to come back to this thread next September and see what the prices are. Now the part i am still trying to learn is the NFT space.

Just for documentation, here are 9/15/2021 prices.

BTC = 47K
MATIC = $1.35
ETH = $3400
ADA = $2.48
