>investing in crypto

Crypto is an investment the same way $GME or playing the roulette is an investment. Better term would be speculating or gambling. Nothing wrong with either, but let's call it what it is.

Isn’t that what I already said? Investing as a hobby? Recreation? Like investing in Pokemon cards?

Investing involves spending money with the intent to make financial returns on your investment.

Buying assets "as a hobby" that depreciate or generate no income, is just that, buying for a hobby, not investing.

People invest in all sorts of things they don’t seriously expect a financial return from. Like sports teams.

Yeah but that's just spending money, not investing.

Well so what? I said people did it as a hobby. They see it as 'investing' like Fantasy Football people are 'playing football'. It's not some mystery!

You clearly have a very deep understanding of finance.

Not sure why you've decided to become personal, snarky, and sarcastic like this?

Comparing it to roulette is such a hyperbole. Would you say that penny stocks are playing the roulette? You may argue they have similar odds but there are fundimental differences between them.

Where did I talk about penny stocks? I was talking about volatile meme stocks like $GME being like playing the roulette.

There's still a difference between buying $GME and playing roulette. Volatile as it may be the chance of loosing all of your investment is greatly lower with meme stocks.
