I feel like every day I’m online I’m bombarded by crypto bros telling me that crypto is a one-way ticket to riches. I’m not against crypto investing—I am sure there is a place for it in some portfolios. But I’ve never been comfortable with that kind of volatility for my own portfolio.

What are some alternatives to crypto that can bring in similar returns? I know it’s not without risks of its own, but I’m more comfortable with leveraged ETF trading than I am with crypto trading. This AI robo advisor is pulling in comparable returns to crypto. I’ve been running it in Cautious Mode, and still seeing impressive gains.
 
A determined hacker, or even a bad power surge can send crypto into oblivion.

That doesn't happen with stuff like this:

Gold or silver are good investments but, while you can get rich by working the market(buying low and selling high), it isn't meant for that. It's a source of wealth preservation or an insurance on your savings if you will. Don't let your savings depreciate in fiat currency.

This is very correct. I believe that's part of the reason why some people are still very skeptical when it comes to investing in cryptocurrency. If anything goes wrong, they're going to lose everything.
