About the Crypto sector
Rather than buying coins directly, many investors get crypto exposure through stocks: exchanges that earn fees on trading, miners that produce bitcoin, and companies that hold large crypto treasuries. These shares often move with the price of bitcoin, sometimes amplifying its swings.
This is one of the most volatile corners of the market, so it tends to attract higher-risk investors. A simulator is a particularly useful place to learn how sharply these names can rise and fall before risking real money.
