Cryptocurrency is very risky investment to involve in and if you don't know what you are doing it will be likely you will end up losing all your money. However the return of investment is very high than most banks investment.
I Like to think Cryptocurrencies as value storage and not as investments per say. But having/purchasing cryptocurrency, is it a goal towards financial success even for a good or smart investment?
that's not very wise, crypto is obviously a very unsteady market! if you're talking about specifically btc then it might make more sense, because no crypto can ever be as decentralized as btc. btc has a reason to exist. 95% of cryptos as a whole is pointless to hold for as a "storage of value", because most of them will cease to exist!
