Normies criticize crypto for being too risky, but crypto has “gamified” savings for me like no other mechanism.

I’ve never been a great saver, but I have done really well with stocks. Once I started dynamic DCA-ing into crypto, my whole outlook on savings changed. It’s an instant positive feedback loop, because there’s always a new way to increase my savings (DEFI, CEFI, or just tried and true blue chip cryptos + HODL over the years).

When I stopped feeling slightly ashamed for the “risk” I was taking on for my crypto investments, and instead realized how much crypto has helped me save* I started seeing things differently. The game of crypto has helped me stop overspending and focus on slow savings.

*Thankfully I’m still fairly green in this current market, maybe I’ll feel differently if BTC tanks down to $15-20k.

Has anyone else had a similar journey?
