Abstract: Abstract Crypto or stock? Investors should understand what they are investing in when weighing cryptocurrencies or stocks. Although cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin, Ethereum and Cardano have surged in value in recent years, savvy investors have to scrutinise what they are getting into and keep an eye out before jumping in. Therefore, this chapter begins by introducing cryptocurrencies and stocks to help the readers understand these fundamentals. In this chapter, we will look into the definition of cryptocurrency and stocks, the fundamentals of cryptocurrencies and stocks and the interconnectedness between these two investments in recent years.
