Can't you just buy an apartment and have passive income with that? Also, haven't tried this (mostly due to lack of money), but celsius netwkrk offers the opportunity of passive income weekly just by hodling crypto so you can just buy some stable coin and have passive income that way. Plus, they have a token and the perk woth it is they give you 3% compound interest per week by hodling their coin. I don't know if there is some risk to that (other than coin dumping hard I suppose and possibly [haven't checked] low volume meaning low liquidity [maybe they do or don't idk. Haven't checked that coin in a bit]).

Spend hundreds, if not thousands of hours learning how to trade. You're not gonna get rich by sitting on some shitcoin you got shilled here like a degenerate moonboy and crossing your fingers for that moon mission.

Shorting is when you are gambling that something will dump and longing is the opposite? Idk how it works,but if it's like that, I want to take my chances since I have a feeling btc will dump (though I'll probably finalize my opinion with random articles from analysts).
You know of any place where a u.s. citizen can do this (margin trading is what this is, right?)?

Eternal youth will be a commodity in the near future though.

try Kraken
have fun losing all your money

I sure hope you're making trades better than 0.1% profit...

Btc will dump so I don't see myself losing money. google.com/amp/s/www.newsbtc.com/2019/09/09/analyst-bitcoin-could-dump-to-6500-to-maintain-price-parabola/amp/

This Is meant for this

Am new to crypto/trading in general, about to graduate college and have no fucking clue what I'm doing with my life. What platform do you guys use to buy/sell crypto? I have a coinbase account with $30 in BTC from when I bought fake ID's for me and my buddies a few years ago should I just keep investing in BTC with coinbase or am i a stinky pajeet, thanks.

Either use a VPN (a bit risky, exchange can liquidate you if they find out) or sites that allow it like bitfineex or Kraken. They allow 5x leverage and that's more than enough for a starter. Make sure you've been diligently studying TA, IMO that's infinitely more important than watching youtubers telling you which way the price is gonna go (Mitch Ray doesn't come off as scammy and seems to know his shit). Start with simple theories like golden crossovers and death cross if you plan on swinging in daily or weekly timeframes. If you have tons of time on your hands you can get into scalping which is also fun because you don't give a fuck which way the market moves
