If you give priority to good altcoins what are already in market since years over newborn altcoins then I think you will face less problem like scam or no volume or similar in future. New altcoins provides many facilities and could give you higher return but for secure investment old coins are more deserving. Although there's no strategy that will ensure profits in crypto. So you need to invest with own risk
which is why it is not good to hold stinky altcoins in the long term. hold enough when you get enough profit then sell.
there are indeed new altcoins that are finally gaining market growth in the long term. but it might be 1 or 2 out of 100 new altcoins.
So remain wise in determining investment planning. Altcoins can provide high profits, but plan well if you don't want to fail to make a profit.
