Does anyone feel like crypto has distorted their relationship with money? After some time I've found myself frustrated with (the lack of growth) of ordinary investments, and I tend to take on greater risks too. I'm still pretty responsible but my investment strategy has definitely changed

Yes 👍 

my theory:

as humans we’re subject to diminishing margins of returns 

crypto gets us used to high levels of returns and high levels of loss

we need greater returns and losses to feel like we’re winning/working

so we move into riskier, all in, style investments that we would never have made pre crypto 

aka we’re all adrenaline junkies
