Dumb plan?

[ringgo96]

To choose a new project in investing is certainly very confusing, because currently there are very many new projects present but they often just disappear and their value drops drastically, currently very many investors are stuck in new coins and they have experienced heavy losses due to the unfavorable market situation, but you also have to know if we can find new projects that have potential then the profits we get are very large, and there are some investors who are already feeling this.

It seems that every three to four years cycle new altcoins always takes a position in top 20 list on coinmarketcap, those who are leading the top 20 of 2017 are done for right now, only very few remains, now it seems this is what's going to happen in 2024-2025 too, now tell me why investing in a new project a bad idea? Cos I plan to look into new projects for the future instead, what do you think?

It's true that most of the altcoins will die in 3-4 years and some would die even within an year because new projects solving the same problem more effectively emerge and the old technology is not competent enough.

Another reason why most project dies in a few years is because the owners lose interest in the project once the ICO is done and they will just do the basic requirements promised within the WP and then move on to another project and raise more money. This entire altcoins market has become rogue and it's about time investors will realize that it's not worth gambling with these new tokens.

Basically, we don't know what will happen in the future. whatever choice we have made is the best that can be done at this time. if you don't do anything there is no way something will produce, life is full of stakes depending on how we take advantage of the opportunities that exist.

It's not a bad idea but it includes a high-risk kind of investment. Now, if you are of that kind of investors who are brave enough to take the risk then do so.
No one can say you are throwing your money doing it because there are chances it would be one of the top 20 just like your example.
Years ago, I bought LSK (Lisk) at high amounts because it was only valued in cents of a dollar then it spiked to $30 joining one of the top spot in the altcoin market but unluckily, I sold them earlier and didn't maximize the profit.
Investing in new coins is part luck and part courage. It's all up to you.

That death will not be good for the market neither, that’s the sad part. There are a lot of people who end up investing in those coins that will die within 3-4 years, and they will be losing a ton of money when it’s going down. That drops the market as well, and the general crypto marketcap drops because of that.

Look at Luna alone, it crashed and even though it was just a thing that should have impacted Luna alone, it didn't impact just Luna and it impacted the whole crypto market. Imagine this but with dozens of coins and tokens, that does impact crypto of course, since it doesn't happen overnight like that, it is not obvious, but it still hurts.

If you invest in new projects, then only in short positions.Devote more time and money to proven assets from the top 5, today many new projects have not survived the general decline in the market and it will only get worse, users want to save their funds with maximum benefit.

You are not wrong when you say the majority of the altcoins in the top 20 get replaced every four years and only a very low number remain to be part of the next bull market, however it is still a bad idea to invest in new altcoins, but why? Because even if lets say 15 new coins eventually make it to the top 20, thousands of coins will be released during that time, which means that your chances of actually picking the right coin are very low and it is way more likely you will lose your money.

This is what is meant by who is strong and qualified, he will survive. The bearish market is not for coins that rise due to hype, the bearish market is not for shitcoins either. The bearish market will test whether the coins are worth it in the market or not. What's more, after the bear market ends, will the coin be able to surpass its previous ATH or not? Because not all top coins can exceed the previous ATH. However, at least, if they still have high volume and market cap and prices are not too far off, this is better. But still, it is not satisfactory because every investor's hope is to find a new ATH in every bullish era.
But unfortunately, we don't know which coins will survive well, gain multiple times, or vice versa.

Yeah, it's clean up time for this bearish trend because not all of the coins specially meme coins are going to survived and remain relevant in a bear market. Because during this time, no money is going to come in from investors and they are very careful in choosing which crypto they are going to invest. So if the coin is listed way below and even prior to the bear market has no activity like trading volume is low, they are most likely the candidate to die in a bear market.

For me, this will take as a lesson for everyone, especially for those new people that starting to explore cryptocurrency and doing some investments.
There is already lof of projects that have been proven over time, most of them are just good in the beginning, pure hype and they just want to steal money from the people.
I am not telling all altcoins but just be careful, avoid marrying your altcoins, and learn to take profits too.

[Dr.Osh]

why so many top 20 coins fell, it was because they couldn't survive the rigors of competition. their ideas are inferior to the projects under them. What we need to understand, the crypto world is a business world, where when you don't develop new things, or don't adapt, you will be defeated. that's why so many good projects fall.
why investing in a new project over a long period of time is a bad idea, all I can explain is because it is a new project. We don't know how this project will develop in the future. because of this, we need to be careful. only a few of the new projects are really worth it. this makes us need to pay attention to how the project progresses gradually.

[rozak]

why investing in a new project over a long period of time is a bad idea, all I can explain is because it is a new project.

this new project is more to create a sensation in their 1-year early development. After everyone is bored, they will gradually leave the project. and will just be a worthless trash token.
not many serious new projects with long term development. many reasons they put forward, ranging from hacking and also failed to update. Avoid new projects in investment even if they look good at first.

when the market trend is in a long downturn, we can start buying potential assets gradually. only focus on some of the top market assets. don't think too much about the big profits of the new asset. because we won't know how long it will take the market to recover.

The coin's position in 2017 has changed this year because many new projects offer many benefits to its users. If you want to invest in a new project, you should know that the new project does not necessarily have good progress for the future and maybe the project can only run for the short term. So that's why investing in a new project is such a bad idea because we don't know what will happen in that new project.

[erep]

but you also have to know if we can find new projects that have potential then the profits we get are very large, and there are some investors who are already feeling this.

Many investors invest in potential new projects but the market must be in a relatively stable position, because market influences have an impact on the movement patterns of new altcoins, so they must ensure that the project belongs to the potential category, one of which is from the side of partner support from large projects such as Binance, so there are big opportunities for projects will only reap huge profits when binance announces the coin trading listing of the new project.

[Little_Sister]

So that's why investing in a new project is such a bad idea because we don't know what will happen in that new project.

After the IDO hype has ended there is very little chance of profiting from investing in new projects, I have reviewed NFT and Game projects with popular partners so it was easy for the project to get fundraising from investors, but when tokens are released on exchanges it is very disappointing because of the price fell below the selling price of IDO.

[lobo13hf]

now tell me why investing in a new project a bad idea? Cos I plan to look into new projects for the future instead, what do you think?

It's not a bad idea, this is a better idea rather than investing into the big cap project. i meant take a look at how many people made thousands percents of ROI. this is quite different when you are seeing those who have invested at the big cap token.
Basically there was no difference. If you are looking into the risk and big or low cap have same risk.
Just remind you that those invested in bitcoin when it was reaching the peak price already lost more than 50% from their investment. This proves that if even big cap token can make you lose.

I will prefer to be very careful with new projects, some are just scam and some will become failed projects. The coins that were in the top list in marketcap in 2017, coins like BCH, BSV, Litecoin do not have real use case, they are only copying bitcoin, but bitcoin is different and better. So coins that have blockchain and have tokens, DeFi and NFTs came and overtook them. Everything is changing but I think this may still be the coins that people will still buy more if they are following the recent trends occuring in cryptocurrencies. There is nothing bad to invest in new projects but we should be careful, we should also know that we can lose the money. Investigating the project is very important.

[$anounimus$]

If you are in the market for a new risk-free opportunity, there may not be a better time than now. Today there are many people in the market who invest in coins for short-term profit, and people who sell their coins when the price is high. Therefore, it is not surprising to see that well-placed altcoins on Coinmarketcap have lost a lot of value in recent times and If you already have an overview of starting a startup, you will be able to make a more informed decision about your future endeavors.

[whiteblue]

Actually you have made an answer to the question you asked, because why investing in new projects looks so bad for us to invest in, because most new projects are only able to reach the development stage, but not based on price utility, community and coin resilience in corrected market conditions, project The new one is also not strong enough to withstand the chaos that was born in the market, so the return to the new kokn died in the middle of the road

Many new projects do not consistently develop the mainnet roadmap because actually they are not able to realize the concept from the whitepaper, they actually only attract investment from investors for the sake of creating extraordinary concepts but after listing they secretly sell coins to steal the liquidity from the presale.

This is true. I've seen coins like EOS, Bitcoin Cash, IOTA, NEM and XEM at the top 20 at 2017-2018 but right now they are either in the top 50 or top 100.

now it seems this is what's going to happen in 2024-2025 too

I think it will really happen. We've seen many new coins at the top already like DOT, SOL, Terra (back when the scam didn't happen) and some coins went down.
I believe that new coins will emerge out of nowhere. New projects will come, and they might reach the top 10. It's possible, since we've seen it already.

now tell me why investing in a new project a bad idea? Cos I plan to look into new projects for the future instead, what do you think?

I don't see investing in a new project as a bad idea.
What other is saying is that, investing into new project has a higher risk of failing compare to those old projects with high market cap already. A new project means it lacks community and supporters. You can still invest into new projects and there is nothing wrong with it. Just be ready if something bad happens like that "new project" that you invested your money with turned out to be a scam or rug pull.
