2. The majority of alts are bad for long term.
Be picky when it comes to altcoins, the majority of them are nothing but money grabbers, they are here to make quick money, that's why many of them abandoned their projects half way and they never refund their investors. If regulation is more strict they won't be able to escape, but the duty is on you, because very picky with altcoins.
Seriously, only a few altcoins are worth investing in. In fact, if I want to be honest, I would say that over 90% of altcoins are bad. They exist for a very short time, and some of them are created just to scam people. Most of them are pump-and-dump projects.at the end of the last two years, I bought some new altcoin projects because I thought that altcoin season was approaching, but I really regretted it because I lost almost all the money that I invested in those new projects.
So, it is always better to invest in long-existing projects like Solana, Ethereum, BNB, and others like them. Nowadays, most new projects coming into the crypto industry are just pump and dump projects. If we want to choose a new altcoin project, we need to do proper research and be very careful, because almost all of them look good at first.
You mean 90% of the top 50 altcoins? because that's only way that math makes sense.
There are probably tens of millions altcoins been launched and rug pulled. If we are overly generous and say that even 1000 of them are "not bad". It's closer to 99.998% of the altcoins being useless / dead. And personally i would say number of altcoins we could ever need is probably closer to 5. And 3 of them don't even exist yet. You can argue what is needed, but XRP is not one of them i am sure.
