For many years in America, the stock market was the best way to invest your money, but now only people with money can invest in the stock market. You can't just buy one stock of McDonalds, you have a minimum. You can't just go to a stock store and buy it, you have to go through some kind of broker. Don't have time to follow the market, you have to pay someone to make your trades.
Most families in America live paycheck to paycheck. Some are able to save a few bucks each week, but nothing really to invest and make money. They can just put it in a drawer and pull out the same thing in a year.
Here is where the crypto market is so important. For literally, $25 I got started in crypto. I bought Bitcoin. It wasn't much, but that $25 investment a couple of months ago is now worth $42.
I've been able to invest $25 a week into buying crypto. Mostly Bitcoin, some Ethereum and dabble in trading around some when I think something is about to hit. Right now I picked up 30 tokens of Aregon (Ant). So far I'm up 28%.
What the crypto market has created is a way for the average person to invest in something that can get them a positive return. Sure you lose some money like when I bought 95 Ripple at $.32 and now it at $.19. I'm still holding it until it goes up.
Then there is Steemit which is the easiest possible way to start earning crypto by earning STEEM and SBD.
It is possible to lose it all, but unlikely to lose much if you hold and invest. That is what I try to do and I don't have to pay a broker. I don't have a minimum. I am in control and that is the way I like it.
