Investment should be made after the huge investigation. Sometimes your investigation may leads to false one. With that you should start a investment. If the coin is listed above 10$-20$, just hold and don't inverse on that coin. Most of coin started with 10$ and above will reduced to the value of 0.5-0.1$. So investing with high value may caise a loss.Hold and buy at dump of price.
^ Investigation upon investment is a must because you will never know how truly their projects are or if that is only made by hype and there is a high potential that you will probably fall into the trap. However, the OP mentioned the hitbtc exchange which is I don't like, more and more shitcoins there listed, and most of them abandoned by the developer or the owner. I had better choose binance right now and do trading using BSC. I can not give more further explanation and I want you to have a dig deep research first before putting in your money.
