we agree on 8 differences between stocks and crypto.
but when it comes to stable and profitable, I think therein lies the similarity, because when we talk about stability, stocks and crypto are unstable, so when we talk about profits, stocks and crypto are both profitable. it just depends on how comfortable you are with both.
but for those of me who hold crypto, I believe in crypto because so far I have never been disappointed with its development and I take care of all the analysis to feel comfortable in making a profit.

I've got a friend who asked me about bitcoin years ago and I don't know what's his stance right now towards bitcoin. I've looked to the possible potential profit in investing in stocks.

And if I just did chose that, I guess I won't be sitting in profits as high as I can see right now for having bitcoin than owning those stocks.

Backing one's opinion based on current situations is a short term measure, the long term does not change, is what I feel.

Today this one is doing good, tomorrow that one might come back into action. You are forgetting that situations change with time and it is better to use a backing statement that is not reliant on changes in situation but is backed by your own strengths.
Short term is the trader, long term is the investor. If you are calculating what is going to happen based on what is going on right now then you are going to end up being upset in the long term, but you may get lucky during the short term. This is why I understand the ones that make decisions in short term by looking at what is going on right now.

Stocks are great for long term as well, I have been investing in stocks for over 12 years, and I am not upset about that, I have a lot more money in stocks then I have in crypto because it is easier and never really cared about moving them, but if you look how much money I am putting in both then I have been putting more into crypto. Which means that my crypto worth will go beyond what my stocks worth eventually, not right now but it will happen in the future. Being good in crypto is not really that hard, you could do it by simply buying and waiting, it will go up eventually anyway.

if you look at the current conditions with a prolonged pandemic, which doesn't go away, it's clear that my choice is crypto, the current state of the best alternative crypto to increase profits, believe it or not just prove it for yourself.

Being well-versed in stocks, I would say, continue with stocks. I have seen good gains myself by buying at the dip of stocks back in May 2020 and today they are performing well. In the same way bitcoin has risen too, so my portfolio is green on that too.

Being an investor, a wrong step is to use the current situation to evaluate the portfolio, dont do this. Extrapolate the situation for the future and you might get a better idea of what sectors might profit.


To what the OP says, neither is stable and neither is profitable if you dont know how to trade or invest. This is no get-rich-quick scheme in either markets and therefore no short answer. The long answer is that if you are already trading something, moving to a different asset class is a wrong move.

Yes, very slow so don't expect high profit if use little capital to trade at stock. I think stock more suits for long term.
I don't think so. It's cryptocurrencies still for the long term. If you believe in it and choose the coins that you wouldn't mind to HODL long-term, I think it would be okay. The long term would depend on the asset and the person for sure.

Maybe everyone on Bitcointalk already knows these two definitions, general.

Quote
Shares are letters that prove someone has a share in the capital of a company. A person who owns shares has rights to part of the company assets.

Quote
Cryptocurrency or crypto is a virtual currency that is guaranteed by cryptography. Meanwhile, another definition of crypto currency is a currency that is used to transact one person with another online.

Both clearly have their own risks, the crypto where you invest and trade online, if the price goes up and down at your own risk.
While stock assets, this can be plural, meaning: if the company you invest in grows and develops you will get big profits, on the contrary, if the company loses you also suffer the same fate.

The bottom line: if you look at the current conditions with a prolonged pandemic, which doesn't go away, it's clear that my choice is crypto, the current state of the best alternative crypto to increase profits, believe it or not just prove it for yourself.

But the main idea of what I want to discuss is about Trading. Trading is common-activity and we can choose the object of trading we wanted. That's the point of my discussion topics.

Basically trade on both are same buy low sell high, but you will rarely or in my experience will not find an increase in stock more than 50% a day, whereas in crypto it is very possible to see one coin pumped more than hundreds percent a day. Stock market is more regulated , it is very possible that trading in certain stocks is stopped when there are suspicious activity on that market, you will not find on crypto market.
One stock can be delisting after passing accurate research while crypto is only based on low volume trading or when there is a problem in the coin network.

The stock is a slow market comparing to cryptocurrency markets.

I do agree with some of the points from Husires. But since you said the discussion should be in trading, essentially, there's no difference. The main differences are probably the market itself and what pairs are available depending on where you are trading. All of the drawing tools, mathematical equations, indicators, etc., that are being used in stock trading are the things used as well in crypto. So there's not much any difference with that.

If we are to focus on what could give us financial freedom, I think the easiest way is through cryptocurrencies. That way and the growth should be more significant since the market is younger too. Of course, there are other things to consider, like security and regulations. For sure, the stocks are being heavily monitored, but it's not much applied for crypto. Additionally that there are DEXs that could be used without any KYC or something.

The best explanation that you could give to someone, who is not yet aware of the difference between the two, is that Cryptocurrency has 24/7 markets and stocks do not have. That's one of the essential things that we could focus on—more profitability in Crypto IMO. The stock is a slow market comparing to cryptocurrency markets.

If those people come and join in the crypto without any preparation and consider that crypto will be the same as stock, I am afraid they will not profit like what they did in stocks. I prefer to do crypto investment and crypto trading than using stock because I do not have experience with stock and I consider that stock needs more difficult to learn about the analysis. Maybe I am wrong but that is from my perception and so far, using crypto as my investment really works to earn money.

For the stock market, the biggest risk is that companies go bankrupt and the market almost crashes. However, the most common case is the company cutting the dividend. There are many companies that have less growth than the competition, so investors will not get the return they expect. Compared to accounts like Bitcoin, the risk of securities is still acceptable. The electronic market is full of factors and stocks that are completely unpredictable. Cryptocurrencies have always been speculative, and they are primarily supply and demand based. To some extent, currencies will all be based on what people are willing to pay. However, for cryptocurrencies, each asset is too small compared to the overall size, so it is quite volatile.

As for Bitcoin, investors will have to face that it will be replaced by other new cryptocurrencies. And it's very difficult to control well.

You are making an inaccurate comparison, as the difference between the two systems is far, just like someone who compares gold to cryptos.
There are basic differences between the two systems, which means that making profit will not be a factor:

  • Working hours: crypto market operates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, excluding stocks.
  • Regulatory laws: The price of a currency can end by 80%, which is what happens in the stock market.
  • Liquidity: Liquidity is based on platforms.
  • Limitations: The cryptocurrency market is global.

Thank you for sharing here. Maybe in Blocksize-Capital Article that I mentioned here already listed some of your factors, and I assumed we understood about it.

But the main idea of what I want to discuss is about Trading. Trading is common-activity and we can choose the object of trading we wanted. That's the point of my discussion topics.

But we find that investing in cryptocurrencies as a whole is not profitable, as many projects have lost a lot of their value, unlike bitcoin and ether, most Altcoins are dangerous and not withdrawing your profits in a timely manner means that you will achieve losses.


Happily, we have forums and as decentralized-network introduction, affected also on our community, so everyone have any right to bring guidelines (Example this forum). Observations and analytics about the project should be first step.

Crypto investment became a hot topic after Bitcoin experienced a drastic price increase. Investors are racing to try their luck in crypto investing to make a profit. But, it is not as easy as you think about investing in crypto like magic money. In contrast to stock investment, the old players in the investment world still put this investment as a favorite ‘way’ to turn their money for profit. Many people are starting to compare crypto investments and stock investments.

Based on Blocksize-Capital Article, there is 8 key differences between traditional stocks trading and cryptocurrency trading.

The cryptocurrency market differs from traditional markets in many ways –  from ownership to regulation, fees, and volatility. The whole industry still has enormous potential for growth, as payment giants like PayPal, MasterCard, Visa and more are joining the cryptocurrency space. It offers a great opportunity to increase diversity in our portfolio.
