I'm just curious, are they just the same?

I do not know how it works with the stock market because I have never done any research about it but I do think that it is somewhat the same.
I think that I am going to do some research on stocks maybe I will also invest in that,

if I think yes. we might as well buy a market in the stock market. because bitcoin is widely used for planting stock in a company, bitcoin is used as a means of transaction. bitcoin price rise was also due to existing stocks includedif there is something wrong with my opinion, I apologize

You can compare the two cause they are very similar yes the difference is bitcoin functions as a currency as well.
Bitcoin can make you a lot of profit if you know what you are doing of course.

But if you invest in good stocks also can make you very rich and there are many people already did it. Both are investments with different risk factors and advantages. For me, both are just an investments but the only difference is bitcoins can be used to buy many other things in online instantly if you won it but stocks we have to sell before using that money. If you buy at the wrong time, then you can make lose in both, but buying stocks are slightly higher risky investments compared to bitcoins.

Well I really wanted to start having stocking trading with our stock market here in my country. But it is really making me doubtful because I find it hard and I am not able to understand that easily. But upon knowing bitcoin, I understand and realized it immediately that this is just the same with stock market, so I didn't continue to stock market anymore but I focused more with crypto trading.

to me there is a little similarity between the two but no equal 100%. as i have also worked in stock exchange for more that 10 years so i have a good experience of stock exchange also therefore i can say that there is a little similarity between the two.

Yes I also think that there are some signs that are the same but for the most part it is different without any doubts.
Of course its also how you look at it but that is just what I think..

They have something in common but I wouldnt say that they are the same because with bitcoin you can buy things by using it as money and also as a debit card, you have more freedom with bitcoin rather than stocks.

For the bitcoin, it is more like a buy and hold. If you bought the bitcoin 6 years ago, lots of profit have been made.

I know the profit what it would be If I would invest in bitcoin in their early days, People have become very rich because of bitcoin, but we cant say that bitcoin is the same thing as stocks.

Yes, more particularly we can not use stocks as currency nor medium of exchange anywhere, but bitcoin will get you those chances. With the investment aspects, both are similar and bitcoin will get us more returns. If you are buying bitcoin only for investment purposes then it is exact you are investing into an electronic format stocks.

Not really. but there are some coins that works that way such as ICONOMI. those coins that supplies are limited especially to 100M only such as wavesplatform.

stocks can be risky if you don't have inside information to companies you invest with.

I never heard that iconomi was limited supplies.. so they will never generate new coins in the future and it will stay at that amount?
Unlike bitcoin that always farming bitcoins or mining to generate bitcoins that we can use.

IMO, it's different things. Bitcoin as currency while stocks it isn't. When we buy stocks then we have part of ownership in a company, but if we have bitcoin it's our assets not shared with everyone.

It is not the same but in some countries Bitcoin was treated like goods and goods could be also traded on different stock markets so there is maybe the link and some kind of similarity.
But when buying Bitcoins you don't have any requests and limitations that are typical for buying shares on stock market.

most people still don't understand about what exactly bitcoin it is ,
they considering bitcoin like oil , gold and any other stocks stuff ,
really hard to know what bitcoin for a common people ,
but it is better to assume bitcoin are like stocks market for the first time , just to make them interested to buy and invest in bitcoin.

No Bro Bitcoin and Stocks Of Any Company is Not Similar Because Bitcoin is a Currency Like Fiat But Stocks are Not a Currency But Provide us Some Ownership in the Company.....

No they are not the same but as investments they are very similar in that you buy, wait for the price to go up and then sell for a profit. Both experience price fluctuations but usually stocks are a little more controlled because they are part of real life companies which means the factors that dictate price movement can be better analyzed/tracked.

No, they are not because bitcoin is a currency while stock refers to shares in the company. You can buy 0.1 or 0.7 btc or any amount while you cannot buy just any amount in stocks because you need to buy whole shares and besides there is already a rule in the stock market of the minimum shares one can buy. In the process maybe somehow they are the same since you will have bid and ask price if those prices will be hit then you can also have profit or lose depending of when you buy or sell the btc or stock.

Unlike gold, bitcoins are easy to store, they divided randomly into very small pieces, quickly sent.
Unlike Fiat, bitcoins are more reliable - you can't fake them, they wear out, they do not need to reissue.
All transactions in BTC are transparent and they can see anyone connected to the Internet. So a perfect payment can't be challenged, justifying that "money didn't come."
As a means of accumulation and savings:
Cryptocurrencies have a predictable and decreasing emissions.
You do not have the regulatory center. To open accounts in Bitcoin network does not need any documents and permits.
You can always keep your bitcoins under the direct control, for example in a home safe.
For bitcoin there are no frontiers – it instantly anywhere in the world where there is Internet connection.
