Cryptocurrency trading on resume

I've seen a number of resumes that have "cryptocurrency trading" listed as an interest. Is this a good idea for applying to IB, AM, or S&T positions? I have a hard time imagining it being seen positively by a lot of people in the industry. What do you think? Include it on resume or not?

 

Anything related to entrepreneurship or investing on your resume is ultimately going to prompt the question "How much did you make / how much were revenues or profits."

If you did well, be prepared to explain your reasoning for investing and your investment criteria. If you have none, but you did well financially, it's going to look like throwing darts on a board, so make sure you have a proper reasoning behind your investment decisions.

"If you always put limits on everything you do, physical or anything else, it will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus, and you must not stay there, you must go beyond them." - Bruce Lee
 

I also think it depends on how you did. If you consider these investments successful and are prepared to explain your actions/the steps you took, I would say yes, definitely include. If you feel like you don't want to talk about it or weren`t all too successful with it, leave it out. But generally I think if they dont live in their own little ivory tower have to accept it.
