If you're new to trading overall and have only experienced trading or investing in Cryptocurrecies then you have no idea the advantages it can have over your typical stock market investments.
I'm not talking about your company 401k. I'm talking about your own personal separate trading account. For starters most of the major exchanges have minimum deposits starting around $250 for the lower side and upwards to thousands on some exchanges just to open an account. In Crypto you can open an account and make a trade for less than $10. This easily allows anyone to enter the market and at least have fun with it or get their feet wet without risking their savings.
If you think fees are high in Crypto go start trading the stock market. Trade fees are minimum of $5 per trade no matter how small. Crypto is basically a 0.02% fee across the board in most exchanges. It cost you $11 to buy $1 worth of stock!!! And that's a cheaper fee. Some are upwards of $50 per trade and even higher. You haven't even paid a professional broker yet.
You want your deposit in a hurry? Banks charge minimum of $40 to send a wire that may take longer than a few hrs. $40 to send $100 to buy $95 worth of stock? Then if you hold less than $25k or higher on other exchanges your limited to buying and selling the same stock on the same day more than 3 days in a row or your account can be flagged and shutdown. What kind of freedom is this? They claim it's to protect you from your ignorance but they are really trying to paint you in a corner so the Market Makers can bleed you dry.
These reasons along with the staggering growth in the market as a whole and even more I fail to mention is why Crypto has made investing easier for the Small Investor.
