I don’t know what Crypto is and at this point I’m too afraid to ask

I started investing in Crypto a few months ago, without having any clue what it is and what it does. I indeed have no friggin idea.
I have invested around 5k so far and still have no clue. None.
I even told my friends about it and advised them to start investing. When they asked what Bitcoin or Ethereum exactly is, I told them it's complicated (well it is, right?) and to do their own research. I congratulated them with the look of a wise, experienced and knowledgeable Crypto veteran when they then started investing. They think I'm a genius.
I just have to keep saying how important it is they do their own research, so I can keep this charade up. They believe everything.
It works. I am a genius.
If my friends find this post: hahaha just kidding my guys haha
