pump and dump will always have it's effect if not careful you can easily get burnt, crypto is a risky investment in general and new projects are even more riskier, the tendency of losing money is very high compare to an investment on already existing projects with track records, better to apply caution while investing in new project.
Correct. It's indeed more risky investing to new projects, though most of the investors are willing to take it in hope that
they will be able to make a good outcome once they've place their entry in the right place and time.
In my opinion, there is nothing wrong but more research is needed and do not get carried away by the Hype for a moment and nothing can guarantee that project successful or will fail at any time. invest assets in a place that you believe is the safest and most profitable.
Yeah. More research to make sure you have some chances with the blow out, riding is beneficial when you know when to
make things favorable to your position.
