When it comes to investments every generation has their go to that did very well. You have things like cars, oil/gas, the dawn on the internet, dot com bubble and more. Well cryptocurrency isn't far from that and what many are calling the new real estate for millennials.
Millennials are people born from 1981 to 1996 which makes sense as I know myself and many others around my age heavily invested into crypto assets when they first started to appear. I mean you could even say Steemit and Steem for example are a good part of that as my assets here continue to grow by the day.
Most people in my generation also don't have big homes or a way to build and rent out a second home. With prices crazy high, inflation and overall the economy being a down right mess where people just continue to lose value if they hold on to fiat over other assets like homes or land it makes sense that this generation and even the next honestly would look towards cryptocurrency as a very real possibility to park their funds and build wealth.
In just 10 years the assets of these major players has grown by unheard of percent increases.
In this new era of investors we are seeing increased amounts placed into cryptocurrency and less and less into the stock market. In a recent study it shows that people in this age ground hold 14% in crypto and just 28% in stocks when compared to those of the older generation where a massive 55% is in stocks and less than 1% is in crypto.
