Hmm after reading your post I have to say that I disagree;
First off, the definition of "making money on crypto" doesn't necessarily mean trading or anything in that sort of matter (at least that is what I am getting from the way you wrote the article) For example buying and holding say 1 BTC 5 LTC 2 ETH 5 ETC 50 EOS 1 DASH ; just buy and hold for a year or two. Secondly cloud mining is a relatively easy and solid way to make money and support the community; I have recently bought 80 Gh/s on Hashflare and am expected to turn a decent profit
Crypto isn't exactly that risky/scary/crazy as long as you don't try to trade; now adays it honestly isnt that hard and isnt that complicated for the average user to get involved
