I am active again after a while and a lot has changed but the apathy of tier two altcoins remains same and it's absolute sham because most of the tier two altcoins have hit rockbottom and to a point of no return and some trusted coins like LUNA, FTX, Celsius, and BlockFI etc where people have lost their life long savings and on the other hand we have tokens like Solano, XRP, XLM, BNB, ADA and Matic who are heading on path of recovery. It's clear that you go with top altcoins (even this involves risk like fate of LUNA, FTX, etc) though there are slight risk of losing but probability of losing everything is even more in other altcoins whose prices are dipped within few seconds after their launch. It's better to invest in established coins rather than newbies.

Please share your opinion.

Not something new or not really that a shocking situation yet this had been always the case of been the standard here on crypto space on which if there's one who would be able to get that popularity or demand,

there are also those projects or coins that would eventually die out because of certain on conditions or situations on which there's no way that we could be able to tell on what would really be the thing that will happen yet it could really happen on an instant or sudden on which those people who do make out some investment would neither leaved out on the peak or would totally bag holding some shit coins if they would be
able to hit up the rock bottom and never intend to make out some recovery after that. This what makes the market too unpredictable due to this kind of probabilities.

If you do like on having that less risky dealing then top altcoins or Layer 1 coins would be the best choice but of course dont bare or put up into your mind that this is risk-free because
there's no such thing about assurance if we do speak about crypto investment.

We all know and even as that as an active user who is always following updates from most of the top altcoin should be able to know whenever a coin is about to go sideways, and following trends is even the most difficult issues as those project might be featured trend. That is to say most of them are paid advert project to be very popular on social media which would likely attract much investors. Whenever such projects fails it keeps all newbies investors at a very high risk especially those who don't follow their channels properly to know the latest update awaits the projects they invested into. That is why, is best advisable to invest in Bitcoin or to a top known altcoin just as you mentioned earlier; any new project launching now are basically of deception to lure investor into investing in their project in order for them to prepare for the next bull run.

Investing in altcoins that may not have future opportunities is very risky. Even a top altcoin like LUNA could be a Scam due to a developer error and FTX went bankrupt with its many scandals. I prefer to get into Ethereum because it is the king of altcoins and has definite growth over other altcoins which are not necessarily as good. Or the main investment is of course just Bitcoin, there is nothing better. For the long term, Bitcoin is highly recommended, we will see a halving occur and it will be a moment when Bitcoin experiences a significant increase like the previous halving.

That is absolutely right. Why? It is because we never see its market performance yet, unlike these old projects as we can have a basis of their performance in the past that can be used to analyze. We can't just rely on luck or those people that are behind these new projects because we are not certain of what will happen next. While investing in old projects, at least we have a clue as to where it goes as we already have seen their market performance history. It is a big factor to help us decide but for these new projects, we are just hoping for the best.

You just can't be sure with the altcoins market for the long term. Despite that there have been established ones, maybe you just go ahead and lock in to them.

This is the reason that if you're investing, you better choose bitcoin instead. You'll have nothing to worry by owning and investing on it. While the altcoins that are already established, you'll also got have some peace of mind with them.

However, you'll never know how exactly they're going to be at the top rankings. Because many of the top ranks before have gone done and now forgotten.

We could say that even if it was an established project, we can really feel confident, no is not. We still consider crypto investment risky but it was too risky in investing in new projects as we are uncertain about its performance. We must have to be cautious when choosing crypto, too many of them but I was sure that those old projects like ETH and BNB are the best project to choose from. If we are into investing, it is not really all about how much we possibly earn but what matters most is we have at least assurance that we can earn some, not losses.

Altcoins are always risky, especially if they're new. That's not a market trend, it's just something that new projects all have. Investing in well-established coins or in new coins is really just a matter of what you want, if you want more profits, investing in new altcoins would be better since if they were to be say, the next ETH,XRP or something, then you'd gain big if you were an early investor. If you want something more stable and relatively safe, then invest on coins with a well-built reputation, but don't expect insane gains. Just like how it is in Bitcoin, you can't exactly see 1000% or 10000% gains anymore. There is the saying the greater the risk, the greater the reward after all.

There would be always no assurance of everything and this should really be bare up on mind on someone who would really be tending to invest with altcoin or even with Bitcoin.There's no such thing about
sure profit because market is always been that volatile and always been that unpredictable. If you are planning to dive with altcoins then always take up some risks factor or considerations about on the possibilities on getting some losing investment knowing that not all new coins that flourished out on the market would really be having that kind of pump situation.Some might be able to hit up and some do eventually die right away and this is why you should really be that having always that risk factor and management on whatever trend that you would be able to face on.
Its always been risky and there's no investment that wont really be risky in the first place.

Extremely risky! Most of the altcoins that are popping now are scams, so be careful.
Some also are just here for hype, they are riding the current market situation or what is trending and stealing people's money.
New altcoins tend to have a more high chance of failing compared to altcoins that already exist today and make sure to do research also especially to altcoins that already have use case.

Well, I guess I'm less prone to get scammed because I'm focusing more on the established coins, and those top coins in terms of market cap that has been there for a very long time, and has survived multiple bear markets already. I will not say those coins, but you already know those altcoins especially if you are in the crypto space for quite some time.

To answer your question, new altcoins, or I should say new projects are risky AF. I mean chances of this project to go rug pull is at it's highest when it's still starting. Developers can just run away with the money that they have, and on the other hand, the investors doesn't have any assurance at all that they will get in return of their money aside from their trust that they will deliver a good project that will be beneficial to all users, and those investors. Because of this, the trust is very low when it comes to new projects thus, the chances of these projects to become successful is really low.

Though we've seeing many projects being created on a daily basis, the chances of them being there for at least 6 months or even more is low. If you're a newbie in investing, I suggest to just focus on those top coins like what you said in the 2nd part. Just be careful still because there are projects such as LUNA who are in the top, but turned out to be a scam. Or maybe just focus on Bitcoin. :)

I can always feel the big risks associated with the whole cryptocurrency industry and looking at new altcoins one will always wonder what can be the future of them...or are they being managed by people whom we can trust or are they just here to make as much money as they can...and then go somewhere they can enjoy their abundance? Of course, new altcoins speak a lot of dangers and even red flags and that is why one has to be so careful - never "invest" what you can't afford to lose, as they say. Now, having said that, I am convinced that there will always be a number of people so willing to stake and face the risks looking for that ONE that can be x10, x1000 or even be x1000 or more.

Well isn’t it common sense. You can invest in older and more established coins like Litecoin or dogecoin and not worry about the developer doing a rug pull of some kind. But make much less profit. Or you can invest in some new project which might be a ponzi but might 100x in a short while.

As your proof with FTX and Luna, even if it had a high market cap, it can still fail and that’s where a lot of people were caught off guard. They trusted those developers and got burned when it turned out they were scams.

And the answer is Bitcoin, nothing else.

LUNA, FTX, Celsius, and BlockFI aren't newbies, AFAIK they're top 30 coins in CMC, LUNA ever reach top 10. Right now Polygon is in 11th position, so technically LUNA was more established than Polygon. After all the list in CMC is useless because they determine top coins based on the market cap (price x supply), not the use case, trusted etc.

Yes, there is hope of making a good income from established coins than new coins in the market, because we have seen massive pump of some of the old coins in the market that attracked many investors to invest more in that particular coins. It will be better to take a risk to invest in Solana and binance in this bearish season, because there are some signs the coins are developing in this season that made many investors to believe that they are going to make a good income from them when the price hit higher in the market soon. I don't think, investing in new coins can give you exactly what you want in your investment, because many investors has lost a huge amount of money from new coins hope that they will make a good income like the way other investors are making it from old coins in the market.

Its not about top ten standings position coins in Coin Market Cap but how trusted with owner and advice teams with their coins, can't guarantee with Luna are on top ten position in CMC at the become scams coin and the same happening with FTX collapse and not only with FTX coins but also FTX exchange scam their member. I have priority with investing between Bitcoin or Ethereum only as long term, but short term could be other altcoin as option but never hold more than one month worry will get the same with Luna and FTX coins. Many top standing coins in CMC collapse and delisted on exchange market, its true with too risk when trading in altcoin due unpredictable how long exist or listed on exchange market and price keep stable up.

I don't too feel which one is better, because the investment problem starts from us already dyor, and the object here has also been considered from the beginning. The emerging trend as well as the signals surrounding the price increase cause any coin to rise, and vice versa. This market is volatile before the news, or rather FOMO, people often remind many newcomers that the process of happening is a completely different story. New things appear to compete, and they cannot afford to be eliminated over time, in the top 10 list is a change many times different from btc.

That a coin/token is top on the list doesn't mean it can't still disappear into thin air overnight. That shouldn't be a yardstick for picking a project to invest in. Well, maybe in the past so many of us thought it was the needed pointer but recent events over the past few years have proved that to be wrong. It's not a yardstick any more. Apart from Bitcoin, ETH, XRP (Nee Ripple), Dogecoin and Litecoin, other coins currently on the top 20 on the list weren't even there seven years ago. Most of those on the list then have either collapsed or are now not favourable investment picks any more as they've lost steam and are nowhere close to the top today.

On general, crypto investment is risky; whether with old coins or new ones they're all risky. Bitcoin isn't exempted from that risk too. The one advantage Bitcoin has over others is its ability to recover whatever dump it suffers during bear rally. Other coins may not survive the bad moment.

Completely aligned with your opinion, as we have seen some of the altcoins which were forecasted as the future like FTX, LUNA, Celsius & etc just shattered the life and investment of thousands of investors it became evident and yes Bitcoin is no exception but as you rightly mentioned it has ability to recover the previous dump and reach new ATH post bear run but patience is the key here since users especially newbie tends to sell everything due to FUDS and sometimes situation pushes the experts as well due to financial circumstances to sell at bear. In short I would says it's better to invest in top coins than random shitcoins.

That's why we must be careful if we want to invest in new altcoins because not many can get a good position on the list. As mentioned, the coins people thought could reach the top spot in the market devastated many investors. But for now, Luna seems to want to bounce back from her breakdown, but we'll see.

And we should choose the top coins proven to increase and can survive in the market well. And if you really want to choose a new altcoin, you have to understand the risks, and if you accept the risks, you can do an analysis and gather more info.

When it comes to investment then there's always an accompanied risks on which it would really be just that so common that there would be projects or new coins that flies out when it comes to value and

there are ones who do kiss up the floor directly after a few hours or days that it had been launched. It all matters with the demand and if we cant able to see up these things then expect about failure.
The main reason on why people do really keeps on trying out to get enter with those cheap prices or on the time that the project is just starting up is that they would be able to get in into those cheaper prices on which it could potentially give out that kind of moment on where they could really get that enormous profits on the time that the project do make out some pump.Market is never been safe since from the beginning on which it is really just that right that you should really be minding about risks management approach on the time that you would be dealing or engaging with it.

investing in coins with market capitalization only good for long term i guess.
so many are just vanishing into thin air after their first appearance, they usually have short term bullrun and after its done, they'd just plummeted until they eventually got delisted.
its just the truth with most of the altcoins, even the slightest market movement and some series of correction already puts them in difficult position beyond any saving.
the point being if you are eager to invest long term as you said, only invest in more established coin for the sake of long term returns and not vanishing into thin air along the way of your investments.

If you are interested in altcoins then there is little doubt that if you want to reduce the risk you are taking then you need to invest in the top altcoins in the market.

However it is very important to be very clear about this, this strategy only reduces the chances you can suffer huge losses, but it does not eliminate them completely, as there have been several cases already of coins that got to the top 10 and they simply collapsed at some point.

Just remind you if the risk will always be there. It doesn't even matter how good or bad the reputation of coin. The risk will always be there. Sometimes investing in the low cap coin is not that bad compared with big cap coin.
As long as you do know the fundmental of new coin and you can identify whether that coin is good or bad for you. It's not all of new coins were bad. Some coins were backed by some big names like binance, coinbase, etc considerably as good coins.

We must know how good the fundamental owned by the coin first. It will not be useless if you were judging the new coin without even try to analyze to know how good the fundemntal of coin itself.

Many altcoins are risky at this time and stay away from meme coin in particular. There are many old projects which were once dead but they are now waking up because they want to get investors from the bull market. But all these projects can lead to loss of your capital. They want to enter the bull market to sales supply them and later they will flee the market.

most of the projects that have died before, and trying to wake up again usually always ended up dying again.
investors nowadays are smart enough to avoid some of the projects that have bad history of failures.
nowadays i think its the emerging altcoins thats massive, and the good quality coins out there, don't necessarily requires us to invest, instead they have something called retroactive airdrop in which trying to make people interact with their blockchain and get rewarded accordingly. though indeed they might have some fundraising through platform like binance and the likes, but they are legit, since they have been reviewed by some big platforms.

actually there is almost no changes since you have rested, and actually it is getting worst as there are big scams happened recently.
meaning that your question is completely answered and that is we are safe in old and stablished projects or meaning the top currency , they might not fast moving but at least assurance is there not life super risky new projects.

The better term for what others are doing, that invests in new altcoins and expects a significant return, is gambling. They are just risking their money and want to have that return.

I think the initial launch gets the price dipped because of the people selling it. I think it's pretty much expected because many people who have invested in something want to get that initial return that they want and probably will not HODL for a long time. It's expected for those short-term investors.

As for the long term, that's another risk that you can take but as long as you have the right mindset, you can really focus on just letting it be and possibly having that "chance" to earn/profit.

Indeed. Many altcoins are launching everyday but only few of them can last long for having a real use case and not just a pump and dump coin. The reason why it's really risky to invest in new coins since you need to conduct an extensive research to find a hidden gem out of thousand alts existing.

Therefore if you're looking for alts to invest in, it is advisable to choose an established coins. Less risky and proven to be worthy even it takes months or years before you can see the result. Though often, alts are only good to hold for short period.

Not being able to accurately predict the popularity of a project or coin does not guarantee that it will last forever or be free of problems.

There are many factors that can affect the popularity and survival of a cryptocurrency project or coin. As you mentioned, there are unexpected situations that even experienced people cannot predict in advance. This makes investing riskier and more complicated.

If you want to minimize risk, choosing top altcoins or class 1 coins can be a good strategy. But remember that no investment is completely risk-free. The cryptocurrency market has always had uncontrollable factors, and it is very important to remain vigilant and manage risks.

The majority of new altcoins are risky. Some altcoins look very promising but we don't know about their fate in the long run. It is always better to invest in established coins backed by innovation. They have chances to survive the future trends. To safeguard your investment you should invest in BTC and ETH for the long term.

Of course they are risky. We know the traumas on Altcoins in the past, FTX, LUNA, these have created big crises in the crypto market. Coins such as BNB, ETH, or the coins you mentioned, which we know as solid altcoins, are going through the recovery process, of course, depending on bitcoin. When the market trend reoccurs, I can say that I am hopeful for alt coins, but even solid coins are just as risky.

Of course, it is safer to invest in time-tested altcoins. But you do understand that you will not get super profits by investing in such coins. But by investing in new coins, you can theoretically get a super profit and this is what attracts the investor. But such an opportunity to get a super profit is offset by the possibility of a complete loss of the deposit.

Crypto will always be risky. It doesn't even matter whether that's new or old altcoins. The key was on yourself. As long as you are aware about how to identify the project properly and you can avoid the scam token.

did you remember luna or even celsius? those old coins have been scamming bunch of people. I think that it depends on how luck you are. Remember always try to be careful with your money.

Investing in the big coins much more safer but it doesn't guarantee your money will be safe. Remember this.

This is also my principle after investing in the failed altcoin investments of mine.

It's safer and more peace of mind because they won't just dump too quickly. Though the tendency is always there, let's just say that the chance is lesser.

So, it's about security and profitability when both of them can be present to a project then you have to choose that.

At most there is no difference between newer projects and ponzi schemes since most of this is in that category but just branded themselves as crypto projects, and most of the shit coins are all layer two which has opened up a new cane of worms to the already depreciating and highly risky altcoin market and this is not something that one should take lightly and before you chose any altcoin as an investment choice, you need to do in-depth research and rely heavily on luck to be able to choose the right one that can at least perform in the market to the extent to be able to give you a good return on investment.

Avoiding scam exit potental projects like LUNA and the rest of them, it measures much as to what level our confidence will be going for and at that, we all must be sceptical of our choices of projects.

The current market trend is very cool because now many new projects are getting success in their token sale besides they are getting good investors from ido. Where you will go in the future is different from what you think now because you need to be a smart investor by involving yourself with the crypto market. Any time you need to invest and for that you need to have a lot of experience. So there is a misconception that you always want to take advantage of the bull market.

Many of those that invest in new coins at the moment believe themselves to be incredibly smart and they think that people like us are too conservative, what they do not understand is that we were on their shoes before and we have experimented some losses already, which is what caused us to become more conservative.

And despite our efforts to open their eyes so they do not have to go through the same experiences they refuse to listen, and they will only understand why we take the decisions that we take once they suffer losses by investing in those new projects as well.

It is too risky - that is the reality. Why? Many altcoins had risen today that are no use case, no market value, and no direction. How could we trust them and invest our money if the majority are created for that? Of course, I'd choose to ignore them and just invest in those projects that we know that they have profit potential.

In this current situation, we need to be wise and must know how to evaluate a particular project because not all projects that have a promising look will also have a promising ends, sometimes it turn a scam.

Unfortunately that has been the case for a while now and a lot of people end up not being entirely sure about what they should be doing. I understand that we are at a confusing period and not everyone knows what they should be doing, but that's going to be the most important thing.

I believe that we are going to end up with some changes in the end and we could potentially make it work one way or another when we figure out a good strategy but that may take some time. We are still not in the bull run, but when that time comes we should be ready for it and in order to be ready for it we should be studying old bull runs and see what should be done, that will help us a lot on the long run to be ready for the next bull run.

There are some quite potential altcoins out there to look out but how much actually the bad ones compared to good one is really high and most of people keep falling to pick the bad one. That's why most of the people are recommending to just pick the top altcoins and use your indicators to determine which one is good for you, or you can just experiment with the non-top ones. It's up to you once you have gain a good experience.

This could be the only problem with the new projects as they are competing with the established one and the only option for investors is to choose between this and know its maximum potential. There’s no wrong in investing with new project you just need to analyze, read their roadmap and know the risk because new projects can also be a potential scam.

Basing up with the current numbers of new launched coins adding up with the current number of coins in the market then it would really that hard on finding a potential coins or altcoins. It would really be just like

that finding a needle on a haystack which it is really that challenging and this is why we do really miss out some chances on getting those coins that pumping up and leaving us some regret that why we havent seen it.
Even investing on Bitcoin does really give out that kind of risk since there's no assurance in speaking about profits because we know that everything do really depends on the demand and recognition of the public or the community.Its never been safe since from the start and this is why if you are planning on making out some investment on altcoins then be prepared on the risks that you are dealing with specially if you
are touching up some meme coins then this is something that it is really that too risk but something rewarding if you do hit it right.

basically investing in cryptocurrencies is dangerous, therefore we should share the risk, it doesn't mean we don't invest in altcoins, but we have to minimize the portion of the risk. of course the biggest portion is in bitcoin, with us putting our nature of greed, and then it can be divided into several altcoins as you mentioned, considering that like LUNA, of course we have to be worried, it's different with bitcoin where if it happens like LUNA, then the world will end cryptocurrency, therefore using money management wisely is highly recommended

The extra added risk is something that some people like to do for some reason. I have absolutely no idea why they prefer that and why they are chasing that, but they like it because they think there will be a bigger return. In real world, though that is not how it works, they do pick something with bigger risk and in return most of the time they lose a lot of money.

Sure there could be some few people who could claim that they made some profit on things like doge for example, but look at Elon Musk's tweets during doge saga, there were so many people constantly spamming his replies about how they lost so much money on doge "because of him", obviously it wasn't his fault, they shouldn't have bought a coin just because someone told them to.

Not all new tokens are risky, there are some new project has good potential to succeed more in the market though we in the industry we are already involved in a risky business to begin with. So, if anyone are afraid to venture on new tokens might as well we stick to old coins or tokens that already have a solid background and foundation after all they made this far and we all can say that they are risk free. And buying as well during the crash is the best time to do so.

Basically market change thier trend with time like for some time it's stick with metaverse, them web and so on, so scammer target such trend and launch thier new project by taking advantage of trend hype, so some kind of newbie or new investors fell into his trap because they invest thier portfolio on the basics of current coin performance of these fake scammer project, so mostly such projects behave normal to get investor trust and then suddenly they sell most of thier supply and dump the entire coin price, so mostly we have seen that mostly new coin not even touch his previous ATH after dump and thus all investors were struck with huge loses, so in my view stay away from investment in new project you should for Ethereum which is the most trustworthy and reliable AltCoin while for extra safety and extra profit in long term investment you should go for the one and only Bitcoin

Obviously these sorry of scams are happening from a longer period of time i have seen many project advertising in this forum and then once the investors are pooled in they will just dump their shitcoin and disappear, we can just check number of altcoin bounties/projects advertised here in this forum for last one year and how many of them are still tradable and compare the ICO price worth current price we will hardly find any as most of them prefer third class exchanges to pump and dump the coins. It's difficult to rely on even the ICO ranking websites as they are bribed as well for better outlook of project.

I disagree, every single new project has a significant amount of risk attached to it, now you may invest in the best new project available and the risk would still be high, as even if that project may have a lot of potential, that potential is not a reality yet.

Remember projects can collapse for all kind of reasons, like being hacked, one of the developers running away with the money, another similar project being released with better execution of the core idea of that coin and so on.

The lack of interest in Tier 2 alt coins may not change, but investing in them does. Because not everyone is lured by the glitter. They adapted their actions due to their losses and the experience. Scammers, fake websites, and other influencers used to play a big part in crypto scamming, but today people are aware of them and on alert for them. Before making an investment, investors are reconsidering. Additionally, there are numerous scam detection tools and systems accessible today. Many people have debunked the myths around cryptocurrency. People are purchasing Tier 2 alt coins as a result, but they are conscious of their investments and their motivations. Even newbies are making purchases there, but their groundwork is solid nonetheless, thanks to all the reliable cryptocurrency guidance. People will fall into traps, but at least they are aware of what they are falling into.

You are the one who determines the amount of risk you want to be exposed to according to your investment strategy. If you want a low-risk, long-term investment, then investing in Bitcoin is your only option, but some people want to take more risks according to perceptions such as the possibility that the currency will rise due to some event, then trading or investing is for a day to A month, during which when profits are achieved, the capital or capital and profits are withdrawn.
The strategy determines the standard of risk and the rate of exposure to it.

Many people miscalculate that risk though, which is an issue. They think that they are investing into something so special that it will be the next eth, or next bnb or whatever "next..." something, and invest heavily into just one new thing with high hopes, which then goes down rapidly and make them lose it all. In that situation, they didn't think they were risking so much, they didn't consider that it would be horrible, what they considered instead was something that would be a lot worse in the long run, and that did not happen that easily.

This is why I believe that we are going to end up with some trouble one way or another, and should be doing something smarter about it as well, and not really put money in these risky stuff, and learn what a big risk is.

then again it comes down to your toleration against the volatility in general, the thing with altcoin is that its usually having lower market capitalization than the long established coin making it volatile and therefore the chance of it losing its value in the blink of an eye is huge, you've seen many altcoins quite literally get dumped and lose 80% of its value and right now slowly dying when bearish occurring that is after the ftx incidents.
therefore if you're not so sure just stick with the more established coin like bitcoin and ethereum.
after all its suited really well for those that wanna invest in long term, if its short term maybe altcoin will suffice but the risk is still there.

At the moment investment in new altcoins is very risky and you might end up losing your money. It is always better to invest in established projects that have survived the market for many years. It is better to invest in ETH, XRP, LTC and DOGE, compared to new coins. Although the ROI might not be very high, your investment will be somewhat secure. The majority of the new projects are actually cashing out the market sentiments.
Market cap/ price does not determine the success of a project and should not be considered as a standard to invest. High market cap coins such as LUNA have failed miserably and people have lost billions. So was the case with FTX. In the past, we have scenes that most projects with a potential wiped out from the market. So, it is better to research before investing and try your luck in more established coins.

Investment in XRP is also risk, SEC is ruling over it. If Elon stop supporting Doge, it will turned out to be meme project again. All new coins are not risk, proper research needed before investment.

The case was done and XRP won over it.

I don't think that he'll stop supporting it. But he'll continue to troll and play with it through Twitter account. He's loving the attention that's given to him and that's why we might never see him stop doing so. He's earning from it as well and that's why he understands that if he ever need some few chunks of profit like a couple of hundred thousands, he'll just need to talk about it and just do one tweet over it and then the increase will be visible so quick.

Investing in any altcoins is always very risky. Of course old projects look more reliable than new ones, but if you do your own research, you may find some good new projects that may eventually bring more profit than old projects. Maybe you will get lucky and find a new Solana, or for example aptos will become a new giant.

thats always the thing with investing in new projects, too much saturated with scams but some of them are indeed high quality like the ones coming out from reputable platform.
therefore you need to choose diligently which one is promising, otherwise it will be the same as investing in shit coin that should be avoided because of scammy.

I also think the same when it comes to crypto investments. It's better to invest in Bitcoin or top altcoins that are old. At this time when crypto is at its lowest phase, I prefer not to invest too much in new projects. Because this concerns investment and the limited funds that I have.

why we need to trust new when there are already good old project that making best.
for years now we have seen those in ranking and some in top 100 that making act with good reviews and good actions ,
we can hope of course but we can dig the best option mate specially if we are giving our money inside.
perfect , why nneed to support altcoins when there is Bitcoin? I must admit that having some small part in altcoins , but I will keep buying bitcoin more and more before the halving.

the thing with new altcoin its still in phase of trial and error, you are literally investing in something unproven whether their product gonna success.
therefore you will put your money at stake here, but the thing is if they do succeed your capital would be multipled many folds, unlike investing in already established coin, thats why many are interested.

Current market is in the bear zone and very hard for new projects to get suitable amount of marketcap. Most of the project failed because of low trading volume and low interest of traders. Some wise CEO not listing token in bear market. Investing in new coins in bear market is not good choice because lot of good and long term tokens also down and investors filling bag for bull season. Those new coind which has strong partnerships and backed by big VCS and exchanges is only choice which could give profit and less risky but I buying price also has a high role.

new coins often trade high than actual rate at the start and then start dumping. we shouldn't buy at the peak. when any new token list we have to wait some time so that all big hands sell their token then their is opportunity to buy with hope of some short term profit.

Why we do need some thing new? Of course these are the possible reasons.

1. Going for new tech or blockchains which are having that L1,L2,L3 or L4 and so on
2. People would be going into those projects on which they could potentially get 100x or 1000x or even more.
3. Sticking with top ranking ones which prices are already too high then multipliers of profits wont really be that big anymore

Just like i have said that whenever years passes then tech would becoming that outdated on which it would really be just that so normal that there might be something new that pops out on the market
and which could potentially be placing up some of those coins on the top rankings on which it would really be causing up that kind of probabilities of flip up and this is something
which other people are really that minding on doing so and trying out to seek for those type of projects or coins. Of course we should really be needing to be careful considering on how
many coins or projects that we do have in the market then finding the best one is really a challenging thing.

This is what many people think now. People saw top/old altcoins which have good reputation for years, have cheap prices now. So, they probably prefer to buy those coins than new altcoins with have unclear future. People should choose more secure and reputable altcoins as long as they are in cheap prices. Since the bearish season, it makes sense if people will prioritize top altcoins. They may consider new altcoins when they top/old altcoins have expensive prices already.

People must prioritize Bitcoin for their main asset, but many of them also want to hold altcoins because they offer higher profits. We can't deny that we need altcoins, too. We can diversify crypto assets with altcoins. Normal people must be interested in the potential of higher profits.

at current trend investing in new altcoin will just bring about disaster, but there are some altcoins that could still thrive, therefore real analysis is required for investing in altcoin at this bearish season.
you just can't randomly investing and hoping to make profits, things are different with when the market in bullish when you can just throw money and gain some massive profits.

Yeah, these trial and error part should be done with little amount of money and not a lot. If you keep investing into something a lot bigger then we are not going to end up with anything that would be profitable or smart. I believe that if you put too much money into stuff that are new and untested, you are going to end up with a lot of loss as well. So that is why it is smarter to end up with something that would make you profit when you have the money for it, so do not put a lot of your money into them.

The amount can change, for me 50 dollars would be smart, nothing more, but for a whale it could be smart to put 5k, because he has 1+ million dollars, so 5k is nothing for them, but never put more than 1% into something that is risky.

What actually makes you think that a billionaire who is the richest person in the world would need a meme coin to give him profits? He has enough businesses to earn him enough money without having to do that, so even if he plays around with it, it doesn't really mean that he is profiting from that. That's what I think.

A person will always need to at least do some research from their own end before they get into a financial market like the cryptocurrency market. So, whether they are investing in new or old projects, evaluation is a requirement. But it's true that when a market gets too saturated, there will always be fake entities among the crowd and only proper research and analysis can make someone safe from them.

Never ever going with that all-in kind of method on which this is where most people do really fail because they are really doing such behavior on which tending to go all out on the time that they do have the feeling or something that do talks about intuition on a certain project which it isnt really that recommended on doing so.You would really be finding yourself on such big trouble on the time that those investments would go south. Its not really that bad on taking up some risky decisions because we know that the ones who do take risks are the ones who do have the chance on making themselves rich but ofcourse you should really be doing those basic principles when it comes to investment which you cant really just carelessly be applying on most projects in the market. You would really be needing
to have that kind of investment steps and decisions which needs to be followed because if not then you are really that prone to mistakes and errors which would cause huge losses.
There's no such thing about having no risks on dealing with this market specially that there are tons of projects that flourished out on the market and this what makes that choosing
will really be much more harder and this is something that you would be mainly to encounter but of course you would really be needing to adjust.

if many are so scared with investing in altcoin they shouldn't invest, new altcoins are risky, they are still exposed with vulnerability of being bankrupt within few months forward, therefore anyone should rethink their decision twice.
however, we should also understand that without the support and investment hardly there will be any new things in cryptocurrency.

you have pointed a valid argument mate and yes this is what mostly said specially those new project supporter though i stand differently ,
yes there are so much to look at in new chains and project but maybe I am tired of dealing with scam project , so I chose to invest in old ones and trusted ,  but you are correct that outdating is the main issues here and this is what new project wanted to break in.
maybe I will try to look and understand new proejct again as how you put it here.

OP stated about investing in new altcoins, he didn't refer to all altcoins.
All crypto coins is surely risky, even Bitcoin is high risk as well. Altcoins is riskier than Bitcoin, but new altcoins are riskier than old altcoins. That's what I know about the risk of crypto coins.

However, altcoins always offer higher profits because they have high volatility. Even new altcoins can increase multiple times if there is a trigger like listing in a top exchange, partnership with a big company, or having a staking program. It is what people actually expect from new altcoins, they are dreaming for a huge pump. People wants to try their luck on new altcoins.

XRP case is already solved, if i'm not wrong XRP is won the case against SEC. But i think you have more safe investment in BTC than XRP. DOGE is always considered as a MEME coin, so what Elon Musk supporting it or not, so you can't trust it like as ETH,LTC & XRP. Some new projects are looking potential but you have to research before investment to avoid SCAM projects.

Usually new altcoin have short moment awhile and can't existing or become recommended for long term holding, despite which listing on the top exchange market many of new altcoin worth and success reach to higher price without one week after listing and later drop or stable in lower price. Its worth when investing or trading with new altcoin but don't make it for long term holding because many of new altcoin not have good planning for the future and stuck with lower price.
As new coins with launchpad, pre sale or from airdrop and listed on top exchange not recommended to make it long term investment, make as short term trading with new altcoin and take profit as soon possible before leaving by investor and their opportunity recovery from lower price need long term.

He said altcoins so XRP is already included on it. Risks are normal. Even BTC has it too. We need it. As long as we know what we are doing, we can make overcome it. Many altcoins are still legit including XRP. And XRP is now free from the curse of SEC, so people should not doubt on it anymore. They better buy more now, now that XRP have once again fallen because I believe that once the bull run returns, it can also pump huge.

Elon and DOGE has nothing to do with XRP. XRP is not a meme coin but it's a serious one. It was even backed by the banks. Elon is a meme coin lover and the guy had some mental problems so he can play with the peoples emotions. We should avoid the meme coins he got involved with.

I agree with you, therefore if we want to invest to avoid big risks, then we can just invest in Bitcoin, but if you really want to invest in cryptocurrency without being afraid of big risks, then you can invest in altcoin, because investing in altcoin can give us a bigger profits than investing in Bitcoin, but of course the risk of investing in altcoin is bigger than investing in Bitcoin, but my suggestion it's better for you to invest in the top 10 altcoin on coinmarketcap (safer than other altcoin).

you have your own opinion in which I believe valid so why need so many answers when it is clear that even you have gone for years the market stays the same that New project cost you big amount of risks than investing in older and proven projects like top 50 currencies(though it does not assure us a gain yet there is a bigger protection than new one)
try not to  bring Bitcoin in altcoin discussion because that make no sense at all .
of course bitcoin is the safest but this is about altcoins that if you pay attention you will see that people here are asking for option to other coins than mentioned and aside fromm BTC.

there are no better place for our money to be invested but Bitcoin though there are really
 a riskier way in altcoin but faster to achieve .if Bitcoin took years sometimes to reach ATH altcoin sometimes .
 and for me personally? i hate investing in new project nowadays since the ICO days when multiple scam project
 that successfully taken peoples money , so why do i care for new project when there are already lots of existing
 project that making investors rich.

Many times we tell people to just stay and invest in Bitcoin because if you're for various altcoins, you are balancing a lot your portfolio which in your opinion is right. But in the actuality is you are diversifying too much that's coming to the point that you are wrongly doing it.
Because instead of having a balanced portfolio by having Bitcoin and you are reducing the risk, you are attracting more risk to the portfolio that you have by having several altcoins which is very true to be risky.

There is always risk in crypto investing , either it is Bitcoin or Old altcoins but our deep understanding and knowledge is what needed for us to learn which is which.

there are even old coins that risky , sometimes bitcoin is also risky.


Just buy your trusted coin , invest what you can afford to lose and never panic when there is a dumping market because recovery will come that is for sure.

altcoin has always been very risky remember so many ICO went scam back then, now new altcoin are facing survival whether they could keep their price, investing in these altcoin are risky because they fluctuate so much.
also we never know whether these altcoin truly worthy to invest, their so called roadmap and product might be just some fake attempt to lure people, if you want safer investment, invest in project that already gets invested by something like coinbase.

Currently in the crypto market there are lots of altcoins that have high capitalization, especially altcoins that are in the top 10, where these altcoins have great potential to give you profits, therefore I suggest you stay away and don't buy new altcoins, because these altcoins has a very high risk, but if you want to try it, in my opinion there is no harm, but do in-depth research so that you really know where the altcoin is going and is headed.

I honestly believe that new coins are not what I really want to invest into. This isn't to say new coins or tokens are bad, but it is really not what I am looking for in the market. I understand the ones who want to do that, they want to take a risk and in return of this risk either they will lose all their investment into it, or they are going to make unreal amount of money. This is the only way to make 100x if you ever make it, you can't just invest into bitcoin and make 100x return anymore, maybe back in the day but not anymore, that would be 3 million dollars, that ain't happening.

However, just because this is "possible" doesn't mean that it is probable, we will most likely not see it, look at the prices all right now, and look at it 2-3 years down the line, and see how many projects failed, and how many made x100, that's the difference.

Not every coin's price is restored after the dump. Therefore, if you bought a shit coin whose price has decreased, you should not expect that the price will recover sooner or later. And as a rule, this happens with new coins that do not have a cohesive community and any utility.

It depends on which altcoin you are talking about. If you are talking about any meme project then it will always have risks. The altcoin market is very big and it has more than 10,000 tokens listed on popular price aggregator platforms. It is not possible to know about all the projects, so new altcoins are being made every day, and very few get community attention. It will be safe to stay with the most popular and those new projects that created hype in the market. Even pepe like meme project got listed in top exchange after the hype.

BTC is the number one coin all of the time, don’t make compassion it with others altcoins. You have to understand risk management, investing in BTC isn’t higher risk as like altcoins investment. So if you keep holding BTC then of course you will get good return but altcoins are too risky investment for all the time, it can be scam and if dumping hardly then it’s not sure it will be recover again.

New altcoins are definitely high risk. However, I think in reality there are still serious projects making efforts even though the market is still in a period of recession and regeneration. So I think new altcoins at this stage really have potential. Identifying them is easier than during an altcoin bull cycle. Regardless of these stages, Dyor and feel for yourself, consider and evaluate their quality before investing.

Now I can only try not to expect anything higher with multiples of 100x rarely happening. Now the target of reaching 10x is very lucky for me. The new coins coming out now do have great potential in the upcoming bull season, it's just that each coin has a different significance. New things can bring change

How do you judge altcoin tier?

Regarding failed coins you mentioned, there is one thing in common that is those were into finance stuff (Luna on it's own was good chain but pegging ust to it, destroyed it) while the survivors are into pure blockchain stuff (except bnb, which is related to binance, cz resigning affected it).

It's a very safe approach to only choose and invest in altcoins among the top 10, but for an altcoin to be good it doesn't necessarily have to be among top 10 cryptocurrencies listed in a certain website or an exchange because some altcoins might be good but they might not have the numbers to be on the top yet but they might eventually make it there. So, one shouldn't avoid all other projects and cryptocurrencies and just focus on the top ones as they may miss a lot of good opportunities because of that.

However, an investor must do their due diligence about a project or a coin before they go ahead and invest in it because where there are a lot of projects with great potential, there is a high number of scams and shitcoins in the surroundings as well and one must dodge them all to become a successful trader/investor.

I believe he judge the altcoin tier base on the community support level and foundation of the altcoin creation. If you look at most of the altcoin he listed some emulate the concept used to create Ethereum (example SOL, Matic) while some did have get community support base on it decentralization or core fundamental creation.

No, every crypto is on a good chain when it havent reach it's max usage. ETH was once sees as scalable crypto when it havent reach it max usage. For Luna and UST which is now USTC if we looking into the concept and utility of the project you'll there's no way it will survive in the long run.

It is definitely better to invest in an established altcoin than a new altcoin, but both have their own advantages and disadvantages. Maybe if they invest in a new altcoin, they hope to provide multiple profits, especially if they are encouraged by the coming bull season, they certainly hope to get high profits

if we can only dig them hard to find? of course there are great new project still there but the
problem is that since there are many scam new projects those legit one are being labeled as scam also
(making it hard for us to distinguish which is which).

Of course there are Serious project because they wanted to stay longer in serving crypto users,
and some of them are staying in the market for longer time instead of just pumping and dumping.

the advantage of Old project is that they have steady investors and the potential to increase
more is there while its disadvantage is the attacks that may bring FUD and of course dumping in the future.

I agree with you, Solana which was affected by the FTX case has started to recover from its decline of up to 10$, now it is stable at 50$ and heading towards 100$ next year at least that's my prediction  ;D

This is a general rule of investing: the higher the expected profit, the higher the risks of losing your money. Therefore, anyone who has decided to invest in new coins should remember that instead of the expected profit, he can leave the market with empty pockets.

Have also read from other people here and out that The more you expect is the more chances of losing because every expectation is in the back are failure so yeah I agreed in all your opinion here.
investing in new coins is like investing in more risky way  of profiteering but yes if we wanted to earn better we must try risking a deeper.
isn't a s high prediction ? reaching 100$ for solana? well there is another increase standing to 58$ now so lets see what will happen in the next bullrun .

And this is why it is really that important that you should really be that realistic at least when it comes to your goals because if you do find yourself trying out to be delusional and really that hopeful then it would really
be creating out that kind of desperation on which this is something that must be avoided specially when you are hovering  yourself into this crypto space. New altcoins are risky? Yes, it depends whether you do make out
some research or not before investing. Somewhat it wont really be still that not an assurance even if you do make out your own research towards those projects because we know that developer could really
just ran off with those funds and this is something that cant be known overhead.

So on the time that you do make out some new altcoins investment specially on presale or on launching then it would really be your choice and speaking about
risk tolerance would really be entirely be depending on you because not all would really be risk takers on which they would really be that focusing that much about on the profits
that they could made if ever they do see the opportunity on getting in.

The situation as a whole is risky, because are not entirely sure what's going on, it is not like we are not doing anything that would be crazy, we are doing something that would be normal, and we can't really make it work any other way. I understand that we are talking about a situation that may not be all that crazy, and I get that it is going to be decent in the end and we need to end up with a decent situation, we are afraid that if we invest then we may do something wrong and we do not know which of these new alts are good and which are bad because there are thousands of bad ones and only a few good ones and we are usually quite unaware which one will be hyped and love and which one will be ignored.

None of this matters if you just stay away from them as a whole, it will make sure that you are not investing into anything new, which means that you are not going to have anything that will hurt you one way or another, and will be fine in the end, won't make you lose money.

in a bull market, many new altcoins will appear; this has always been the case as soon as the market is in good condition, the developers of new projects take advantage of the situation to attract as much money as possible, since no one is in a hurry to buy something new on the red market.

It will always be the best time when we see the market has been turned green and we have seen that the altcoin listing will be increasing.

Mostly projects wants their tokens to be listed on tier 1 exchange on those days on which they see the market conditions good. So now is the best time for the new project to come out in the market.

Also a positive point for the traders to buy more and invest in only those coins which can give them opportunity to earn.

It is true. Investing in established altcoins will be always better, the risk is lower than investing in new altcoins. Established altcoins have bigger chance to always survive in the market. We don't need to feel worried about the possibility of the altcoins to disappear due to massive delisting in the exchanges. They already prove that they have the ability to survive a long time for years. They also have strong fundamentals, so they probably have bright future. It is very different with new altcoins that are very possible to be delisted in exchanges if they have no progress in the future. Some new altcoins also become scam projects, the developers/teams take away the investors' money. At the end of the day, the new altcoins become dead coins.

So, although the chance to get bigger profits from new altcoins is higher but the chance to lose all the money are higher as well. That's why most people prefer to buy established altcoins such as ETH, ADA, SOL, MATIC, Or DOT.

your opinion is correct bro.  However, I have also experienced coins being delisted by the exchange, Memv tokens.  even though I had high hopes for this coin.  but in the end only the feeling of loss must be accepted.  so I decided not to focus too much on new coins.  although sometimes the concepts they offer are extraordinarily good.  and I have more confidence in btc, eth, bnb and sol..

It is possible that the project has problems, if there are other projects like that, it is possible that there will be no development and will no longer be of interest.
New coins can be a great opportunity too if you do your research and see if the project follows new trends or innovations, you still have to accept the rapid changes in crypto.

Old Is Gold. We have always known this. Investing in old projects is likely to be largely risk-free. Again, if you invest in old projects, the chances of profit are very low. Because all these tokens move very little.
On the other hand new tokens are coming in the market every day. However, many new tokens are trending in the current market. Which becomes the center of attraction of the buyers. I think although new tokens can give you big profit suddenly but your investment risk is very high. But yes there are many good projects among the new projects, which you have to do market analysis to find out.

but i will ignore xrp anyway, because there are other options, why should you choose ripple.
Solana proves that the coin is still trusted, after rumors of FTX holding most of Solana's supply.
but solana can bounce back.

It depends on you, if a new coin is listed, it doesn't mean the coin isn't good, we have to see what is behind the coin, what field is it in, what field should we look at the project before buying, all investments have their own risks, it doesn't mean the new coin isn't worth buying, my advice is to avoid it. Invest if you don't know what to invest in

I will say altcoins in general have this risk in them which are so common with each other but investing in a new cryptocurrency project you're not sure or well informed about them is as taking the advanced course on risk, so if a new coin is out, we should take our time while observing to see how they could perform first, make research on them before going ahead on anything we arrived on concerning such coin.

I agree with you, that solid altcoin also have risks, so not only new altcoin, but old altcoin are also at risk, so in my opinion all altcoin have the same risk, therefore if you want to invest in cryptocurrency for the long term, then Bitcoin is the right choice, because all altcoin prices depend on the price of Bitcoin (Bitcoin is the king of cryptocurrency).

If the project is not real in the market, you will definitely know by Carry out some research to know how popular the project is in the market and the team behind the project and you will make a good choice that will favour you in the future.

There is no way you will invest in a potential altcoins you will not make something good out of the coins because, all those potential coins always move whenever the price of BTC is moving in the market but the new coins will never develop such move with potential coins than to take a long time before they will start moving to allow their customers to earn little from their investment.

Of course it is better to invest in established altcoins than new altcoins. We know that investing in cryptocurrencies is inherently risky. To invest, you must invest with risk. But among established altcoins I will not talk about investing in all coins I will only talk about investing in Ethereum, Solana, BNB among established altcoins. And all other altcoin investment can be done by you or anyone at their own risk.

What makes most people invest in Altcoins is usually for the big pump often experience in the market mostly by these new Altcoins coming on board. Since these top Altcoins are slightly oppportunned to give a big pump in a short time most people will prefer taking the risk of purchasing new Altcoins because they haver higher chances of pumping their investment. It becomes our decision to take on the risk or grow our investment with top Altcoins that have higher chance of surviving the market volatility.

I agree with you on this but not completely.
I think that depends on the person. someone who has good experience and understand can make a good profit by investing in newly launched projects. he would know when to invest and when take profit and exit.
but someone who doesn't have understanding of market and don't know how to manage investment then it is better for him to invest in estatblishment projects. or better seek an expert's assistance.

No, if you choose a good altcoin in your portfolio. It will definitely give you good profit.
There are many new projects that list their coins on binance such as calestia, zetachain. These projects are good for investment they have good strategic partners and already listed on all good exchanges. You can buy them in small parts.

New projects are not always risky and many good new projects are constantly entering the crypto market. Investing in many such new projects yields good profits. Actually developing new projects is seen only when the bull market comes. You should know that 2017 saw a lot of new project success. But for long time it is better to invest in established coins than new ones. It will always protect you from risk so use the best time you want.

As suggested, there will be risk in new coins, and for the lucky ones, sometimes this could be life-changing. In recent days, the discussion about Zetachain has been seen all around. It is a new coin on the market, and the same has gotten the attention of people for different reasons, and there is a lot of expectation on it. So, we need to be educated to analyze and understand the right coin to invest rather than going on new ones in a random manner. Established coins have a low risk, yet things weren't assured, as we can experience incidents like those that happened with FTX at any time.

most of the new altcoins nowadays are having a good time, such coin you mentioned as an example, celestia literally climbing up about 10x meanwhile zeta chain climbs up from listing price right off the bat.
i think the risk of investing in altcoin these days specifically at the season of bullish run isn't that high, so many coins are increasing instead of dumping.
though if we invest now we are already too late I guess, since they've been increasing so hard.
but certainly there are more and more upcoming token waiting to be invested, just find the ones that get invested heavily by binance labs and you are settled if you somehow encounter opportunity to buy it at very low because that kind of opportunity usually occur at the time of the first listing.

Why? I think almost all the new projects are risky because we don't know how good the projects are. Although the new projects can offer good products, but we don't know how serious the teams or the developers. The quality of the developers/teams also can be the problem for the development of the projects. There are many new projects fail to survive a long time because they have bad developers/teams. So, I don't think that we must be so confident to trust new projects.

We must understand that old projects can be risky. How about the new projects? They must be riskier than the old projects.

There is nothing wrong with investing in new projects if one can do enough research and analyse the project thoroughly before they make their investments because as you said, a lot of new projects have great potential. After all, they are genuine projects and they are here to stay they have a good roadmap with all the developments and stuff planned and kept in front of their investors for transparency.

However, most people don't do that, they only see that a project has a whitepaper and a good-looking website and they think it's a great project and it deserves investments. They don't check the team whether it's fake or real, and they don't check the social media handles of the project whether they have any interactions or not, and that is not the right way to do it.

Just like you, i cannot invest in Altcoin because I have not seen the foundation for a long time. We all know altcoins have stayed for years now and have not committed any suspicious acts that may make investors want to sell their coins. Altcoins are good to invest in for a short term if you want quick gains. But you should have a deep understanding of the usage of the altcoins. So many altcoins may come out promising so much but at last end up stealing investors money during the ICO or IEO stage. I have fallen victim to this, so that is why i only invest a substantial amount in altcoin because i feel its usage will not end anytime soon. One good example is Binance BNB.

For crypto market when we see green means there are 2 things in which we are happy to sell more and we are sorry not bought more.
but not until they are willing to spend for their listing and of course advertising then they will never attain this.

lol of course we all aim to invest in profiting but this does not mean we can get what we wanted each time .

Investments are always risky and it is not possible to predict in advance when to invest.  However, there is a lot of hype in Memecoins right now so this hype can end anytime.  So before investing in all these coins you must research and study the coins well and then invest.  One thing to remember is never to invest all dollars on one coin.

I disagree, you can predict when you should invest because you have to do your own research for it. Don't say that it's impossible to predict when you should invest in advance because it is possible as long as you have money and idea when to do it.

Yeah, DYOR or don't get into memecoins for your own safety even if there's a hype on it.

New Altcoins are risky. Aside what happened with FTX and the rest, looking at the statistics of the number of Altcoins being created, you should know by default that bad eggs are getting into the picture and it’ll start getting hard to identify them. If you want to reduce the risk, invest in Altcoins that are know and have gained balance. But it doesn’t mean that you can’t risk it (if you have the money to) and try new Altcoins.

Sometimes new coins invest are risky but not every new coin, you know some new coins already entered top 50 to 100 ranking in the market in too short time, how it's possible if their project is not potential or strong fundamental, currently so many new big projects in top ranking like ARB,SUI,ZETA,TIA.

There are times when we need to break lose boundaries, investing mainly on top Altcoins is a good start but we also would love to consider investing on new Altcoins as well, since they portray the ability to give a successful and significant quick pump compared to the top Altcoins who does it's own price movement on a gradual process. It's risky but at most once we get fortunate it's worth the risk.

Don’t simply say “once we get fortunate” because you don’t know if one will get fortunate. I like to tell people that whenever they are investing, they should assume they have lost their money so they can be at peace with themselves. As long as you have spare money to risk, it’s okay to try these new altcoins. Hope for the best but you must equally prepare for the worst.

I understand where you are heading towards but at times we have to speak a little more positive, being this positive may not change the outcome, either losing or gaining but deep down we have known it doesn't matter and all that would rely on just waiting patiently and see the yielded results. Investing spare money is also a good way out of the doom of losing the money invested.

It’s okay to be positive, but I rather prefer being realistic, especially when it comes to investments. Every investment is a risk, that’s the first thing I tell myself. I also remind myself the likelihood of it going south. It’s just a way of preparing your mind for what’s worst. But of course I keep my fingers crossed even while acknowledging the truth. “Don’t count your eggs before they hatch”, they say.

Like I said earlier, how positive a person is yet not guarantee his outcome or increases his chances of winning. It doesn't matter how good we maybe even speculating, the market might decline and decide taking a U turn, just so unpredictable but at first stay positive and just wait for whatever outcome it maybe.

I agree with you on that, however, I believe people who evaluate projects thoroughly before making investments can be on the safer side because if you are looking at almost everything that the project has including its website, whitepaper, team, roadmap, social media handles, and anything else, and then reach a conclusion whether it has got the potential or not and deserves an investment or not, then you are on the right track.

The mistake most people make when investing in altcoins is they don't do much research, maybe out of laziness or what, but when you don't do that, you are basically gambling with your money because the market is highly saturated and you can never know which project is here to scam you.

In the current bullish season new coins can offer great returns, as always new coins take more risk to invest. New coins can enter the top 100 ranking by showing good performance for one to two months initially based on the current market price increase. However, in most cases, they cannot sustain for a long time. All the coins you mentioned are for investment, may perform in future. But for the future I always think the top coin in the market like Ethereum, BNB is the best option to invest.

being positive is good when we are already reaching the bottom and accumulate exactly at that price point but I can't really be positive when we are reaching all time high there's always this feeling that the price will eventually having correction and go down again at some point, therefore being realistic is the best approach here, knowing that a bullrun just can't last forever instead there's always correction waiting for it just like the recent price correction

i'm sure people with level headed mind are already know that eventually they will see price correction thats why some people decides to dump but for people that are optimistic in which in this case can be considered to be a person with positive view of the market despite the price correction they definitely waiting for the price to break all time high again.

but realistically speaking, insight into technical aspect of the market also helps to be having realistic view of the market, knowing when we're already overbuying, etc really helps a lot in knowing what the market state currently is at.

The question we should ask ourselves is what were we doing when others were buying at a lower price, it's simple this people takes advantage of the whole system by purchasing enough during the buttom price with intentions to later on sell off after reaching their desired profits sending the market into deep correction. Yes, bull run can't last forever same with how the buttom price can't last forever, vice versa?

It also depends on what one is purchasing either Bitcoin or any worthy Altcoin, in terms of Bitcoin,  there is no such term as over buying as long we are purchasing from the DIP and during the accumulating process it does not affect our standard of living.

I agree with you that it's safer to invest into altcoins like ETH, BNB etc. But the question arises: why do people invest in other coins?
The major reason behind it is that whenever there is risk involved in something it can give rise to two possibilities. It will either give you some very good profits that will be unexpected and either it could make you lose everything. When people have extra bucks they invest into altcoins with high volatility then. Greediness is in our core as humans.

All investment are risky. Just like your can give little trust to the old altcoins we can as wear give those trust to most of the altcoins that are available now. I have heard testimonies for the new altcoins like BOME and some other altcoins. So yes, its nice we give them a chance. When talking about risk, whether previous or recent their risk in investing in most altcoin while few altcoins are legit and capable to give sweet gains.

My intention for investing in altcoin is for the short term so my risk involves how long i am willing to hold the altcoin i had bought. If it is for 3 months then its not risky anything exceeding a year then its a risk.

Though staying positive is indeed a great thing, a wise person will always see both sides of a coin, and based on how the market conditions are at the moment, it is difficult to decide whether it will go up or take another dip from here. Due to the fear that the market can take a dip at any time, it's hard for people to take long-term positions at the moment because that could be risky if they are going all in on a single buy.

People who are doing short-term trading and are buying and selling very often are going to enjoy these times a lot. Just like how life doesn't stop when someone comes or goes, trading doesn't stop whether the market goes up or down, but only the ones who analyse the market very well and conduct enough research can be the winners at the end of the day.

Great risks give great benefits as well.

Most people who are brave enough to risk their money would most likely to earn more the faster way but not everyone has the ability to do so and that is not necessarily a bad thing. Since we are dealing with money here, it is not a bad thing if we are careful and cautious.

Aside from greed, I also like to think that it is impatience that drives people away from famous coins with not much volatility compared to other cryptocurrencies.

you mentioned Predict so means there is no way we can find it in advance but we can assume this to happen depending in our capacity to take the advantage and the disadvantage .

Memecoin RIGHT NOW?which memecoins is hyping because I cannot find one, or are you just shilling for those coins?

its because these project backed up by big ventures or investment labs, i've seen that most of the project backed up by these never turning out to be scam, the value also usually climbs up despite giving away massive airdrop they instead become successful and known by a lot of people until now ARB is among the most used L2 ever for practical things, excluding those L2 that currently are being farmed for airdrops where they incentivizes the use of their blockchain ARB instead still have so many transactions as well as dapps deployed within the platform, it goes to show its success.
if its random new coin that aren't even backed up by venture capital or at least some popular cex i believe the risk increased by several folds, also the overall price in the future might not be as good as the one being backed up by big venture.
also, in raising price, the name of the venture backing it up also a huge factor to determine whether people gonna buy the coin or not its overall like riding on these big venture capital names.

Each altcoin is risky but there are some risk measurement level. Like new coins could be scam and mostly those are even after havey number of toekn sale. Thats why people suggest newbie investor, not to involve with new coins. Then its come to memecoins & shitcoins. Those are get listed but no surety that those could hold their existence till the next day or not. Then low rank > middle rank>top coins are comes. Top coins could be risky if we think about LUNA, FTX, Celsius as example but those are less if we percentage the whole top coins charts VS others altcoins charts. So good to go with top coins and the most important thing is diversification. Otherwise money could be lost if only one coin get scam

Risking your money to invest on altcoins or whatever you are planning to do will really be always depending on how your risk appetite level could be. Each person does have their own tolerance
when it comes to risks on which means that if you cant be able to bare up the risks on losing money on investing into something unsure and would really be focusing into Bitcoin and some top altcoins
then it would really be depending into your choice. Each one of us would really be having that different approach on things on which there are really those people who are really that skeptical
on making out such action because of those probabilities on which we know that this might be resulting into negative. If you are someone who arent tired on trying to dive in into those opportunities
then they are the ones who do have that higher risks tolerance but of course not everything would really be ending up on what supposed to be.

Risky taken is part of human beings but it is good to partake a calculated risky. Many people have taken risk without making some finding first and regret. One thing in the cryptocurrency ecosystem market space investment is that. Everyone make their own opinion of decision , though one must face risk to make it in life. Many people have come to this crypto world but could not bear the risks mostly if they started it the Bull Market and suddenly it enter the bear market and if the bear market is long then they would give up and sell off all the coins in a cheaper rate and left. I have a friend like that.

And many people were thinking that cryptocurrency investment is an avenue for them to make quick money but when the investment did not go to the way they wanted them they became disappointed. And another thing again when the investor did not do anything to support the investment and only rely on the investment then, he would touched the coins.

It doesn't matter whether it's new project or something that's existing for years there will always be risk factor but we can say in a random new project the chances of the value reaches zero is high.

It doesn't stop users from investing on new projects because they always look for the next big thing which is a gamble they may pay once in a while and rest of the time will get busted.

This is the kind of mindset that has made meme coins one of the biggest trends in the market at present. One could never imagine that meme coins would become so widely popular in the future when Dogecoin was launched, but because there is a lot of greed among most cryptocurrency investors, they invest in meme coins despite knowing the fact that they can lose their money since most meme coins die off before they manage to garner enough attention.

So as long as people have this greed of becoming rich overnight, new projects including shitcoins and meme coins will keep getting investors even if they have nothing to offer to their investors, it's just the hope and the potential to provide huge returns on investments that make then gain success sometimes.

This is a risky bet, but if it manages to get through then it will give returns on a high level and that's what every investor is hoping for when investing on a completely new project. They can consider a few things around to minimize the risk especially since there is high probability of the projects getting listed on a reputable centralized exchange if they gain decent community support.

There is always a risk in every investment. However, an investor must be able to face this risk. However, investing in new coins has always carried a big risk. Currently, this risk is getting bigger, especially now that there are so many new meme coins, and people are investing in these coins to target big profits. However, there will always be risks, even with good coins.

Yes there are risks involved into investment and the investor must take it but there is a big difference between taking risks or taking calculative risks. It's very important to understand this difference because it will help you a lot in safeguarding your assets.

The calculative risk is the one into which all the possibilities of loss are studied and they after apply different skills the investor is convinced that the money will not be lost. This approach allows you to have a safer investment which can later on lead to profits.

Going by the nature of what is happening which is the reality in cryptocurrency, making an investment in altcoins or any new crypto project is very risky and its not even a good idea for any newbie to give an attempt on, except they are ready to loose their investment, we are not sure of how successful such crypto project could be in the first place, so we need time in making research about that, then we also have to bear in  mind that going for such is a 50 by 50 chance of winning or loosing.

What I can recommend you is to remain calm on your selections of new altcoins, risk is always there even with established coins how much more with striving assets.
I've been with several challenges for seven years until now, then recently it came to my realization that established coins like btc, eth and bnb could bring potential profit instead if you choose long term investment. Staking is the best ways to embrace future if you wanted assurance for your money with crypto.

That's why people called crypto unpredictable cause anything coild be happened. But you must calculate your risk and go ahead with diversification process. It could reduced your loss a lot. And when people are discussing about new altcoins are risky or not, i must say new altcoins are always risky. But it also to true that I have seen many altcoins in early stage which are leading now. So it is important how you want to risk your money for making your money.

Yeah there is always a risk, not just in new altcoins but even in old altcoins there are still risk, new coins or old coins is risky, crypto is risky and if we don't take the risk we cannot earn big in crypto. Because crypto is all about taking risk because it is high on volatility that even expert cannot predict the exact price if it is going bull or bear market.

we have seen this happening for many years now that majority of new projects are not
reaching having value most specially when ICO time because there are 9 scam in every 10
projects and even more than that.


and they are looking for easy return , I mean quicker waiting than regular legit project
that sometimes even taking years before finally reach the top.

If just one out of five of their investment on a new project is giving returns that maybe enough to cover the loss from others and even can generate profits too but as you said a new project can go high or never took off that makes it most risky things to invest on compared to old projects that are known.

Every coin is risky but the new altcoins are riskier. It is what I know about the risk on crypto coins. It is not recommended to buy new altcoins because they may disappear from the exchanges easily. It is different with old altcoins, they tend to have better chance to survive in the market because they are many investors supporting the coins. Although the volatility can't be avoided but the existence of the coins will be more secure if we hold old coins.

That's what they think with those kind of altcoins because they like to gamble and take risk. They thought that it will be quicker to invest into those random altcoins that are too risky.
The market itself is risky and the risk that you bear depends on how good you are in spotting them but if you're just a random altcoin investor, you'll lose a lot. The best to invest are the ones that have been stable in the market for how long.

Old coins that have a good record then that is a better choice and less risky  like how i have invested in my coins in folio , but about testimony ?
what is this a health forum?  ;D ;D don't believe in stupid testimony because only scammers do that,  legit brand need not to talk alot instead let the investors dig for what they can give.

correct in this mate because we must not let our funds in long term for altcoins unless we are putting this in Ethereum or Solana .

Exactly. The old coins with good stats are the best option for our investment. Even if it doesn't mean to have no risks at all, but it must be less risky than the new coins or meme coins. I don't know your portfolio, but I guess you mean you have invested in old coins with clear fundamentals. You also must prefer to choose the old coins that become the favorite of most investors. I guess most of your portfolio should be top coins. Is it correct?

By the way, what testimony do you mean? TBH, I never believe in the testimony. It should be rather subjective and difficult to trust. Moreover, when the testimony is made by random people. How we believe them?  :-\

Ethereum will be always recommended for investment. But I'm not really sure with Solana for the long term holding. Even if its popularity is rising significantly now, there is no guarantee this can continue in the next few years. I suggest to be more realistic to invest in the coins that become easily popular nowadays.

Memecoins project has a high risk, which many people are aware but you need to apply wisdom before you can gain to recover your money back from the memecoins project, because they can disappear at anytime without a single notice for their customers.

But if you belong to top altcoins, there are risk too but there is a hope that you are going to earn big money from the altcoin investment, if you can hodl the top altcoins for a long period of years before you can trade to accumulate profits because they use to pump along side with BTC.

Many customers has made a big profit from ETH and PEPE few months ago, which they are still planning to increase their money to buy ETH and PEPE and hodl till another bull run will occur before they can sell to earn profits again.

Agreed with your classification of Altcoins which has risk and high risk but pepe at the end of the day is still a memecoin and that's what makes me think we can never think of investing into Altcoin, I have seen people losing it all at a blink of an eye. I think we have a fair point that we need to think twice investing into memecoin and other risky coins.

When we want to invest in an altcoin we tend to be more careful in observing the movement of new altcoins and also old altcoins. We can all see that many new projects are emerging that are gaining popularity even though they are new coins. If you want to invest in altcoins, it's better to go to the top altcoins where we can observe the risks that will occur if the altcoin goes down.

When you decide to buy a new token, the first thing you have to do is check the development team, if there is a big name in the new token (for example Vitalik Buterin) then don't hesitate to invest in it, what is dangerous is when you invest in it. new tokens that have absolutely no trusted people on their development team, this is what usually happens with shit coins or shit tokens

Many traders skip the background verification of the owner profile before investing their real money.The money will be hard earned one by the traders.So it doesn’t take huge time,only 2-3 hours for complete check of the background verification of the project.If the social media account of the owner was real,the trader can choose that altcoin.The important one is the new altcoin will take more time compared to the old potential altcoin.So the crypto traders should have the more patience in the cryptocurrency trading.

But the thing is how do we distinguish if the development team are legit or just a dummy ?
We have seen those scammers that uses names or even faces just to pretend they are a
 legit and good project knowing that not everyone in this space have that deep knowledge
how to dig them all.

Yes this is what we keep looking because that will validate what future this project is and of course their roadmap and whitepaper , though in time this has not been the basis yet if there is a good team behind then their paper and maps must be accurate to serve their investors and bring them assurance to what they might be looking forward.
and also for them not to fall from being seller when the coin/token enters the exchange in which many investors are doing even from the past.
