I've never been as intrigued, involved, and obsessed with an investment before crypto

I've held traditional investments for many years. Occasionally feeling passionate about a specific stock but nothing like what was ignited with crypto. Once the idea of Bitcoin clicked, I became obsessed with learning more and exploring the broader crypto ecosystem. It's a strange reaction to an investment. More like the discovery of a new tool?

All my other investments feel more like requirements for retirement or to be diversified with my savings. They've mostly become empty ticker symbols with changes in price I like to watch.

Owning crypto feels like I'm part of the actual equation. I feel more protective and passionate about my crypto bag. It's alive while everything else feels dead. It's quite amazing to experience economics so intimately.

Regardless of price, I feel like I still own something. I'm still interested in it despite declining prices. I haven't just stepped away like I have with my traditional investments. I'm still here and still very interested.
