Some people find it difficult to adapt to change, those who invest on stock are familiar with it, not ready to take risk because unlike crypto stocks are more conservative in nature, crypto is not, high risk and high reward explains the nature of crypto more,
although there is nothing wrong with diversification, since stock is not as risky as crypto investment perhaps is the reason why some people still prefer to invest there.

I have a small portfolio of stocks plus a few good ETFs. I'm heavily invested in BTC and that doesn't mean I can't diversify my earnings in other products. 90% of my wealth is in bitcoin anyway and I'm fine with it.
Still, I believe I can make good use of old world financial instruments and investments.

It is called "diversifying investments".
 Others wanted to have different kind of investments, so its not surprising if a particular investor will put his money in cryptocurrency, stocks, real estate or gold at the same time. As long as he/she knows the risks of investing those and as long as they are willing to take all the possible consequences then probably not a problem.

Apparently, because it is way less risky than crypto. We all know how unstable or volatile the crypto market is and perhaps they can't handle that amount of risk that is why they still choose stocks over crypto. One more thing I can think of is that they have no idea about it or they prefer stock because they are much used to it like if they transfer on crypto it would be a bloodbath on their portfolio or something. I think we all have our own preferences so let's just respect each other if you like crypto then go for it and if you like stock then go use it, it all can be profitable anyway depending on how we will handle our trades.

I think the reason is that not everyone knows about bitcoin compared to stocks which is still more popular especially for older people. Another reason I can think of is that stocks are less volatile compared cryptocurrency which is understandable, some people will have a hard processing the fact that their investment goes down at really sharp curves when investing in crypto. Also, most financial advisor probably recommends stocks instead of cryptocurrency as an investment to their client.

Crypto is very volatile so there are still some people that prefer buying stocks. We experienced an 80% correction way back in 2018 and we just recovered last year. And I'm sure we are speculating if that would happen again.
I agree people who hate volatility as a big problem will go for investing with stocks even they are already aware of cryptocurrencies and its high profitability. In my opinion at the same time, those people are missing out life changing opportunity of what cryptocurrencies are providing through high volatility.

If I have plenty of money I would not just put it on crypto. Stocks have less gain but it won't matter if you have huge capital in them plus they are backed up by big companies.
But I will not. Stocks are known for slow progress with less volatility. I prefer good returns even with high volatility. ROI of bitcoin is still unbeatable by any of stocks world wide.

You invest in that particular coin because you put your trust in them and believe that it has the potential to increase massively in the future.

How the Hell people Even get rich with stocks with so small profits? 
1. Lack of knowledge to crypto - for us who are in this forum, we might say that at least we know the basics of cryptocurrency already but for some investors its either they really don't know crypto or they just don't want to touch it because they are afraid to do it because they are lacking some knowledge about it.

2. Risk - We know the risk of crypto and compare to the risk in stocks, its far far riskier in crypto. There are some investors out there who prefer low risk low reward strategy rather than going high risk high reward.

3. Diversification - As investors, diversification is very important and as for me I already allotted some money in stocks just to diversify my portfolio. We know that markets are moving in cycles that is why I took out some money and invested it into other investments.

Overall, it will depend on the investor into which asset they want to buy. Whether it will be a stock or a crypto as long as they are gaining some profits into it then well and good.
I really appreciate the third point, where diversification is needed to secure the assets that we have achieved. crypto market does not continue to rise like this, so by diverting some assets to other fields, we will still stand without financial hardship

Because stocks are still profitable, absurd for some as it may seem. Stock is also much secure when it comes to hacking and funds loss compared to crypto investment where it's you're on your own most of the times. Plus a lot of boomers are still not bought with bitcoin and cryptocurrency investment's profitability and sees it as a bubble ready to blow up any time, so for them the safest way to invest is still in the stock market.

Stocks can exhibit worthwhile percentage gains over time. Stocks and traditional investments are perceived to be more reliable and stable investments over the long term. Due to greater regulation, laws and in theory: scrutiny. They may also have better protection in the form of insurance and state funded bailouts.

As witnessed with ICOs crypto is generally less regulated, which comes with its own set of positives and negatives.

Much of china's vaunted success is attributable to its deregulation based approach to business. While there are many who preach positives of regulation, there aren't many who reconcile that stance with growth margins of deregulated chinese markets.

Stablecoins like tether are said to hold a greater sum of reserves than fractional reserve banks and similar institutions around the world. There are many aspects to the debate which covers such a broad spectrum it can make it difficult to see the big picture.

Simple because stocks first arise compared to crypto and also people have get used on having the presence of stocks use in different aspects specially when it comes to trading. Other reason is that there are still a big population that wanted to get along on staying with stocks rather than patronizing crypto despite of the fact that it have already proven itself better than stocks with this pandemic that causes the crash of stock market. People have their own reasons to choose crypto over stocks and vice versa and they can work on having both if they want too.

Many people consider the cryptocurrency market as an experiment and they cannot understand the logical sense on why the  market is moving up every few years and you cannot blame them either as the cryptocurrency market is fairly new and anyone who invested in any coin during the early phase made a huge fortune. There are people who really need conviction before entering a market and you cannot force everyone to get interested in a new market.

Maybe it was just an ad asking people to play stocks, seeing people playing stocks making huge profits and buying some supercars and mansions. There are several factors that make people stay because they really understand about it. But some others may take risks and do not understand about the stock and it can also be a show for their friends. But if the person is very knowledgeable about stocks then he / she will try to invest in virtual currency which is more profitable. Maybe.

What will happen if the price of the digital currency falls to zero? In the stock market there is a guarantee that the price does not fall to zero and that trading may be halted. cryptocurrencies may reach zero and no one will compensate you.
Even trading will be halted if that company goes bankrupted then you may need to bite the dust, there cannot be any exception. You are simply arguing for centralized/regulated things whereas crypto is pure form of decentralization. There should be many obvious advantages and disadvantages and we cannot do anything by comparing them still people who care about privacy and freedom choosing and enjoying cryptos over stocks.
That's correct and there are many other horrible stuff that could happen as well. I have seen companies bankrupt and that is the most known one, there is no guarantee how much you could lose from a company like that, there is no guarantee of income at all in stock market. However another bad thing that could happen would be a company doing something illegal, so in that case you get a penalty for shareholder as well, the company pays the fine but when they do, you lose as a shareholder, so for some board of directors accepting to do something illegal may result with you losing money, how is that fair?

In the end crypto is decentralized and only people who decide on the price are the people who buy and sell, there is no central organization that you tie your hopes to that could end up giving you any loss and I would rather let general population decide my faith than some board of directors.

It is because they get used to it, that one of the simple answers to your question. The second is that they aren’t used to the volatility of the cryptocurrency market. Besides these, stocks have been there since the Corporate Era (after the industrial era). And during that time, but the coin wasn’t even at the stage of the idea being made.

Stocks are more secured compared to cryptocurrency as well. Their pros and cons are very contrasted in a way that you can always compare the two. That they both are different as they may have almost the same character being trading in a trading platform but they have different approaches and phases.

Many people think that crypto and stock markets are just the same but it's not. They think that when they are really good in the stock market, they can eventually convert their skills into crypto but hell no. Another thing is that there are a lot of short-term profits in the stock market unlike the crypto that you need to wait until the good coins that you are talking about pump up and that's the time that you will be able to get your 100% profit.

'Life's but a walking shadow'!
I wouldn't invest in crypto if my misconception of it being "dark web's money" isn't cleared up by my friend.
The same misconception is what's hindering quite a lot of people from investing in cryptocurrencies, the media is actually not doing Bitcoin and other crypto's any good, without further research by one willing to Invest in Bitcoin I feel they'll automatically be discouraged with what the media puts out there. And then, it is what it is, people have different risk concerns and that's what shapes their investment options, either it's Bitcoin, Real estate, Stocks, etc, it's basically down to how much the individual has, how long their willing to wait on ROI, and the risk inherent in the particular investment.

Thus, not cause Crypto is suitable for 'Bob' means it'll be for 'Harry', different individuals have different choices, and cause someone made good ROI from Bitcoin doesn't mean another will, people assess their choices and choose what's best for them, if Crypto works for you, stocks could work for your 'neighbor'.

In fact there is a difference between Stock Trading and crypto. The goal is of course the same goal of achieving profit when buying cheap and selling at high / expensive, technically similar.

What makes stocks and crypto different are:stocks are only traded on the stock exchange or the company has only one type of fiat currency while crypto has various types such as Bitcoin, Eth, LTC and many other types of crypto.
In terms of trading, flying hours are also different, stocks are only traded 6 hours in a matter of 5 working days while crypto can be done without a limited time, for example: hourly, day per second and also per year, crypto can be traded day / morning and night.

The bottom line: both of these trades have their own risks in determining profits in stock trading. Of course, they have their own profit value, crypto too, people can do both and have different advantages, depending on the capital they have.
