Bitcoin is a moderately safe investment, it the long term it is going to continue to grow, but alts are much more versatile and risky. If one is going to invest a lot of money into alts they need to do their own research and resist FOMO. FOMO has ruined many people who put their money into scams.
This is so true. I keep seeing people who keep flipping coins like pancakes due to FOMO, and then they end up complaining about how much money they lost. It's sad and funny to me at the same time.
