Has the popularity of bitcoins reduced interest of people in stocks?

Those that are stock brokers and lovers won't stop their investment in it just because they've heard about bitcoin because old habits die hard like we know but in the case of such of these people, they could add bitcoin to it and add it to their investment portfolio for those that like digital asset and all.

Right, very few stock investors will turn to bitcoin investing just because they have heard of bitcoin, they may or may not add bitcoin to their portfolio instead.  i also know some people who are investing in stocks, but they are not investing in bitcoin, they are used to the stock environment and also make a profit from it, so they have no reason to switch to bitcoin.  each market will have its own pros and cons, and every investor will have their own preferences, not everyone knows about bitcoin and will love it.

[JeffBrad12]

honestly many are just interested in two, usually they have investments in both switching depending on the current market sentiment in these two investments.
but then again as many have said, some people just couldn't that easily switch from their habits same with stock traders, they would hardly switch over just because they see bitcoin unless they've finally find some potential in it.
even like that I'm pretty sure that bitcoin increase in dominance and market capitalisation highly correlates with the fact that money could be coming in from these stock investors or traders.
after all, from what I see cryptocurrencies in general is just more interesting investment, though sometimes you see some good stocks that gains value like back then with tesla.

I do both so I'll say whats most obviously true is not everyone has access to these markets anyway.   You need a far greater capital base for stocks and knowledge generally can go back decades where as crypto is still new and lends itself to a younger generation to learn and also develop.  Nobody is really going to let you into leveraged trading of stocks with order book access with full data so you do it properly or easily, you need a ton of education and company backing is required to really do it properly.
  Geology always seemed the best route for stocks as you will have an advantage in comprehending mining reports and commodities move fast 10% in a day is a good measure but who do you know who trades stocks using their geology knowledge.  People dont do that, they try to gamble on stocks and they'll come to crypto to gamble on the next hot thing here too.   They arent really in competition so much, crypto expanded the reach of finance and invented something new so crypto is new more grass roots access less dominated by old money also I think its higher risk.

There are people that switch from being stockholders to Bitcoin holders, but others also do, but it depends on the investors. But mostly, what I've seen and heard is that they stay more on stock because it is less volatile. I mean they can just predict it, or for them, it is easier to jump out when the price drops. Though it is more comfortable for them as they know Bitcoin is volatile, they prefer something less risky, which is stock.

Like Bitcoin investors who may not like stock investments and vice versa, there will still be stock investors who don't like Bitcoin or crypto so sticking to stocks is their choice, so the presence of Bitcoin will not reduce people's interest in stocks, moreover more people who prefer what has appeared first, and because stocks precede Bitcoin then that doesn't change anything, maybe a relatively young stock investor will divide their investment into Bitcoin but won't leave stocks because it's a form of investment diversification.

everyone has their own views when investing, depending on the comfort they get, it can be said that every investment has different benefits and the fact is that there are still many people who believe in investing in the world of stocks. it's just not like it used to be before there was bitcoin news

This means that the popularity of Bitcoin greatly affects enthusiasts in the stock market, I think that's natural because the price movement of Bitcoin is very significant, even though the risk is greater, the possible profit is also proportional to the risk you get, therefore I think the attraction of new people is certainly more on Bitcoin with the hope of getting high profits.

Professional investors tend to diversify their portfolios. For example, they used to buy bonds in addition to various stocks. Some old-school investors like Buffett still do.
When cryptocurrencies reach mass adoption, then instead of bonds, stocks could become the low-volatility assets that should form a counterweight to crypto. And cryptocurrencies are likely to replace stocks in investor portfolios.
However, it’s unlikely that in the next decade we’ll see people holding only different cryptocurrencies in their portfolios. It’s more likely to be 50/50. Not everyone wants to make maximum profit at high risk.
Besides, we shouldn’t forget good old gold, which will remain a safe haven for many. So smart investors will diversify assets in their portfolio roughly as follows: 33% in cryptos, 33% in gold, 33% in stocks.

I agree with you, I don't really think that Bitcoin has converted any traffic from stocks to itself but those who might be interested in Bitcoin as well will diversify their portfolios and add Bitcoin as well. We all know that stocks have been there for decades and people believe in stocks more than cryptocurrencies because they are associated with real companies and firms and people understand how that market generally works more than the cryptocurrency market.

In my opinion, the stock market is more predictable than the cryptocurrency market because the news and stuff give it away about when a certain stock will either go up or down, the downfall of a company or a firm will be seen way before it happens by the experts in the market.

Those who have been players in the stock market for a long time certainly will not leave the stock market just because the crypto market is becoming increasingly popular among investors. Because stock players, of course, they are comfortable and understand all the knowledge about stocks that have allowed them to survive and benefit to this day. So leaving stocks for the sake of entering the bitcoin or crypto market is certainly illogical. But maybe it is true that maybe they will also try to enter into the crypto market. in small portions while studying it carefully. and the more they understand crypto, the more likely they will also put crypto into it. But definitely slowly. and still make the stock market their main market. and crypto is only used as a side business by them.

[Pierre 2]

I also think it did. People are hungry for profits. When average stocks can hand you %5-10 in return, average altcoin can help you make around %40-50 sometimes even %80 profits. Obviously people who are adventurous prefer Bitcoin and other altcoins. I think there isn't a single month Bitcoin didn't preserve its value or raise. For a year or something. Its very valuable asset/currency/investment. Stocks are out of fashion.

Of course and this is out of the ordinary, and those who are used to using stocks to invest will not easily switch to the crypto or bitcoin market, because they will start from scratch learning everything about bitcoin including the risks.
Bitcoin is getting more and more popular and those who are familiar with the stock market must have heard of it and maybe some of them will learn about it too. Because they think bitcoin can provide greater returns over the long term than the stock market and it tempts them, and I often hear that many stock market investors and others are switching to bitcoin and some are doing both.

Stocks give like 20-30% returns in an year but bitcoin and other crypto coins can give this much return in just one day. At such, do you think that increasing popularity of bitcoin has reduced interest of people in stocks.

I think in some countries, people are really shifting to crypto only and most of their investment portfolio is in the form of crypto instead of stocks. The awareness related to crypto is increasing day by day and this more people are getting included in this crowd. Stocks on the other hand become saturated, people have realized that these stocks are not as much profitable as bitcoins. Also, there are other benefits of bitcoins like it can be used for transactions. This cannot be done with stocks.

I think yes, because many people want the possibility of high profits even with high risks, it becomes an attraction for people to be able to take big profits, which is different from the stock market.

I also experienced the same thing, after playing stocks for a long time I thought I would not get big profits and that's why I switched to investing in crypto, even though I know that the risk is bigger than investing in stocks but it's quite worth it with the possible profits that will got.

[EluguHcman]

 Yes it has caused a reduction influence over the stocks sector yet stock markets still leads by the numbers of investors due to the technical knowledge required on dealing on Bitcoin and the fear of it's digital system and most inventors wants to invest on physicalities

Though Bitcoin has its tendencies of high increases in the market and they both experiences inflations.

I think indirectly the popularity of Bitcoin affects one's interest in stocks. Individual interest in these two things, namely Bitcoin and stocks, varies greatly, of course, the increase in people's interest in Bitcoin is proportional to their overall understanding of this digital currency. Maybe the people you mean are domiciled in countries with sound regulations against Bitcoin, meaning that even though Bitcoin is still not legal for transactions, they do not issue regulations to prohibit individuals from investing in cryptocurrency. As for stocks, as we all know, this is legal in every country and some even provide guarantees for possible losses.

When viewed from the side of the advantages and ease of making investments, cryptocurrencies are more reliable than buying stocks. To buy shares, of course, several stages are needed to arrive at the process of taking profits and enjoying them. Of course this is among several factors that influence people to be less interested in investing in stocks along with the popularity of Bitcoin.

I guess for sure when cryptocurrency become popular the stock traders and money were surely divided between stocks and cryptocurrency so there are obvious effects of that. When I was getting started on investment I originally planned to invest in stocks just in my country thinking that where I should put my money as an investment, cryptocurrency as an option as well but when I learn and gain knowledge on cryptocurrency I get hooked and started trading and buying bitcoin instead of investing on stocks, I learned that cryptocurrency trading is much faster because of the market volatility of cryptocurrency.

My cousin invests in our country's stock market and he told me that he's doing really well I see most of his posts on his social media post that he's doing pretty well and most of his trades are profitable, in my opinion, it is a much safer investment compared to cryptocurrency since these stocks are a local company and you could invest on long term and expect for a good profit, at the same time there are still risk since company could drop its value if its wasn't doing well.

I agree with you in some countries people are shifting to crypto because most of stocks now are moving downward a couple of years now and other stocks do not move that much compare to crypto currencies. A lot of people now are more interested in investing in crypto currencies because of the possible rate of returns compare to stocks. As i can see that a lot of stocks now in the market are stagnant and the profitability rate is very low. Crypto currency is a high volatility asset but if you have invested at a low price at the right time the profitability is very high. Most people now are aiming good enough profit but of course the investors should enhance their knowledge about crypto currencies to avoid such a big losses.

Does the presence of Bitcoin diminish people's interest in stocks? I don't believe so. It is true that Bitcoin prices can fluctuate dramatically within a matter of days, a characteristic that stock investors, who are accustomed to relatively insignificant volatility, must take into account. Currently, the crypto space is still in its infancy when compared to stocks.

When viewed from the side of the advantages and ease of making investments, cryptocurrencies are more reliable than buying stocks. To buy shares, of course, several stages are needed to arrive at the process of taking profits and enjoying them. Of course this is among several factors that influence people to be less interested in investing in stocks along with the popularity of Bitcoin.

The majority of big investors won't hesitate to go through the process, as it concerns the security of their future funds. This serves as evidence that the stock market still holds a significant advantage over Bitcoin.

While there are Bitcoin investors with substantial funds, it pales in comparison to the amount of money invested in the stock market. In my opinion, the existence of complex stages doesn't deter wealthy individuals from buying stocks, as it remains their favored choice.

Cryptocurrency looks so attractive that many people are turning into crypto,
this is also accompanied by the rapid development of crypto and I'm sure this development will continue,
Bitcoin is also getting more and more popular and I think that is a testament to that.

Has the popularity of bitcoins reduced interest of people in stocks?

I think emergence of Bitcoin as a new asset class and its rapidly growing popularity has  drawn significant  attention of small and institutional investors, despite its inherent characteristic of volatility. Bitcoin's status  is a new emerging technology has created sense of excitement among investors. It is widely believed that  early investors in such technologies potentially yield huge returns on their investment. Stocks are a different asset class representing ownership in companies and stocks are influenced by various factors such as overall state of economy, company's individual performance and overall market condition. It is possible that some investors may allocate some portion of their investment portfolio in Bitcoin and other crypto currencies, while maintaining their interest in traditional stocks.
