I played with crypto a while back. I flipped some crazy "Alt coins" and tokens. I bought things like DICK coin, and TITS coin, you know, all the solid, stable investment strategies lol.
It was a losing experiment. The fees were crazy expensive, and near impossible to track. Just getting money into your "wallet" to "exchange" tokens/coins was a nightmare. Calculating my cost basis was impossible. It was so different from a stock brokerage account.
Buying the main "stable" coins like Bitcoin, Ethereum etc I suppose is much better, and can be purchased through some stock brokers, But the alt coins are nuts.
Check out some of my posts on the "The Saloon" board. lol. Good luck if you venture into Crypto!
