Is there any difference why anyone would invest in the stock market? Of course people asset prices to inflate. Isn’t that the whole point of investing in anything?

Actually, originally no; stocks paid dividends.

    Ok, fair. But that was when again? How is this relevant today, when people hate crypto and think stocks are ok?

    Ethereum also pays dividends in the form of staking rewards.

    About 7% today, and most likely going to 10%+ post-merge. That makes the yield on Ethereum significantly higher than the majority of stocks in developed markets.
