As an alternative to the stock market, I choose cryptocurrencies.
I am not a crypto enthusiast, because the capitalization of any cryptocurrency is nothing but market trust. Unlike stocks, it is not backed by real goods and services.

Peak value of Bitcoin by years:
| 2014 | 953 USD |
| 2015 | 465 USD |
| 2016 | 975 USD |
| 2017 | 19 497 USD |
| 2018 | 17 527 USD |
| 2019 | 13 016 USD |
| 2020 | 29 001 USD |
| 2021 | 64 662 USD |
In July 2021, the value of bitcoin was $ 31,686 – twice lower than the peak value this year. In addition, unlike stocks that are indivisible, you can buy 0.0032 BTC for $ 100.
