Those are all great points. I've just been building a portfolio of solid alt coins and I'm thinking, why would I not go and use 10% of my portfolio on projects that could actually make a difference? Can I lose sometimes sure but if everyone thought that way then would the first alts ever been successful and would we ever be debating in this thread? Idk just food for thought

I have kept hearing it's all in the approach, and that there are ways to tell good from bad, I don't know how things really work around here but is that something people would be willing to share?

I honestly want to diversify into projects that are brand new and are helping people like me, and I may be a newbie but I'm not oblivious to the fact that there is risk anywhere. I found one that I like and I was wondering if anyone could just give me their opinion on it, maybe also some tips for what to look for moving forward. Projects called bitcoinage and essentially they are trying to level the playing field in crypto

I just don't get why people aren't trying to push good projects more than they are trying to shoot down everything
