Not really the case but if that's your thing go for it! Personally I don't want to commit that much time to a computer. My hunting partner just put 5k into some crypto (I'm not well versed) at $27 a coin.... Yesterday he told me it was over $200. There's definitely an ability to make money.
Personally I'd prefer to put them in index funds- total stock market, SP500, healthcare, etc. Pretty stable, pretty safe. I'm setting my self up to make more in retirement than I do now, and hopefully have the ability to retire young. To each their own though!
