• Social media is more appealing to young adults than older ones.
• The idea of crypto investing with less capital is to gamble, which can often pay dividends.
• Young investors benefit from joining similar communities that share the same mentality and can work together to make better decisions.

The concept of crypto trading can be irrational and atypical. However, it is often easily understood by people who have enough internet time. Global mass media outlets don’t disseminate complete and accurate information about crypto markets. Information on crypto markets is usually spread by niche and digital sites like Reddit (NYSE:), which are places young adults spend the most time.

Young Luck

Cryptocurrencies draw young adults in because they are “simple to understand” and provide higher financial yields than any centralized forms of investment. Simple investing options that don’t require capital or KYC are NFTs and DeFi staking as well as meme coins.

Platforms such as Robinhood (NASDAQ:) and eToro don’t allow teenagers to interact with their products because of the perceived financial losses teenagers could incur. Meaning that they instead turn their funds towards crypto, which the SEC has referred to as ” a wild west” because there are no safeguards in place.

However, there are reports that many young people, as well as inexperienced traders have earned millions by investing in cryptocurrency. Erik Finman was 12 when he bought cryptocurrency and became a millionaire at age 18. Similar Reddit reports show that kids who are still in high school have become “investment gurus,” simply by investing in or .

According to a Motley Fool survey, Gen Zers are more inclined to invest in cryptocurrency. For instance, 47% Gen Zers have crypto, compared to 39% among Millennials. Moreover, young adults distrust traditional institutions, which catalyzed Bitcoin’s surge amid the 2008 stock market crash.

To The Flipside

• Hamsters around the globe don’t trade with large capital and will likely not face any repercussions for liquidation.
• The trading industry has evolved into cryptocurrency gambling. Decisions are made based more on intuition than data.

What is their secret?

Research shows that younger generations have less understanding of blockchain’s technological aspects. But, because they are digital natives, they can see the future possibilities that blockchain technology offers to a digital ecosystem. While adult news is gathered from well-respected sources, the digital native hamsters collect their data from social media channels. Watch as the NFTs are applied to Roblox.

With NFTs snatching every inch of crypto attention, one 12 year old earned more than $400,000 selling digital artwork named ‘Weird Whales.’ Furthermore, two siblings have made over $30,000 after building a piece of mining equipment.

Others, who are not mediatic avatars, have been making millions even though they’re still in high school. Because NFTs can be built using community initiatives, most people trading them are not financially skilled. Discord discussion revealed Shamdoo (an NFT trader) is less than 18 years of age, which shows how it’s not important when you trade new blockchain products.

The blockchain technology is proven to be age neutral, so anyone can interact with it. While a technical understanding is essential when handling high investment capitals, lower capital inputs are fueled by ‘YOLO’ and ‘APE-ing,’ which have been unspokenly added to official crypto trading lexicon.

What are the reasons to care?

Younger investors can better understand the usability of blockchain because they are constantly interacting with new technologies and are building new expectations about how Web 3.0’s infrastructure will develop.
