There is no investing in crypto; that's called speculation or gambling.

If you invest in an S&P500 ETF you are betting on the US economy continuing to grow, if you invest in Euro 6xx etf you are betting on Europe to grow,

If you invest in a world ETF like VWCE you are betting on the world economy continuing to grow, it's still fucking gambling it's just the playing the odds.

Me investing in a crypto ETF would be me betting that people are stupid enough to keep putting money into it.
