My friend day trades all day and I'm bored just buying BTC

He has six monitors in spirit, if not literally. I have one recurring buy and a growing sense that I'm doing the less exciting but possibly more adult thing.

Still, I won't lie, sometimes the boredom makes me want to 'do something' with my stack even when I know that's usually where people get chopped up.

Boredom is a real risk factor. People talk about greed and fear, but boredom causes damage too.

Open a tiny play account if you must. Keep the main stash out of your entertainment budget.

Your friend may be having fun. He may also be doing a lot of unpaid emotional labor for mediocre results.
