There is a key difference between trading and investing but many few people recognizes this. We cannot say at the broader level which is better of the two. It depends upon person to person.
What if we get knowledge of both cryptocurrency trading or investing and then decide which one suits our need or which one proof more beneficial to us.
Many few people? That part sounds confusing to me but id say that there is more people that knows the difference between trading and investing. When we say trading, people automatically thinks that they are buying and selling daily or more often but when we say investing, people will assume that we only buy and sell at rare times.
Those few people that didn't know this or wont agree with this fact are maybe thinking that investing and trading are both the same because both involves buying and selling. I think that's somehow true but that was only it. The time or the duration if how long will they buy and sell, still matters the most.
