Beyond Bitcoin and Ether, there are few selected projects that are worth trusting. Some factors to consider;
1) Utility != will not dump
2) Strong Product != will not dump.
In the end, it is still about many many factors, including bitcoin-related utility.
While this could be a factor, this isn't applicable to all projects.
Correct me, but I've seen a coin that has no utility, but isn't dumping at all, and on the other hand, I've seen projects in the past that could have a good utility, but ended up failing because of probably lack of support from the public and maybe lack of funds to develop their project as well. Also, I've seen projects that has a strong product that ended up dumping. PI is one of the many... or did they have a product in the first place aside from their mining app?

Kidding aside what you said was true, but not applicable to all. As for the OP though, I'm still focusing more on the top coins in terms of market cap. Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP, SOL, BNB, HYPE and SUI. These are just some of the coins that I want to hold for long-term, but of course I will not buy them all. Recommendation to those newbies maybe.
