Welcome to LEO.
In many instances, it is difficult to compare crypto to other assets. For example, all cryptocurrencies are a form of decentralized governance. Their are many non-financial aspects of crypto that do not apply to stocks... although I guess the concept of stockholders making governance decisions is not a novel concept.
Regardless, crypto can do crazy stuff. For example, I can lock Ethereum in a MakerDAO contract and extract DAI out of thin air, using the ETH as collateral.
You can use them for various things like staking, lending, collectibles, DeFi, or possibly as a utility like ENS.
Ah nevermind you got it all figured out :D

Yeah it's not an apples to apples comparison, but nonetheless, when people are deciding which to invest in, these are the things I would consider :)
