Why would you think, that you'll be successful ...more than others?
Probably, he thinks it is the crypto world, anything goes and as long as he is there doing something, there would always be that person who would invest in the project even if it ends up being successful. I feel that is the new area most people are just busy looking at to be rich these days and then paving away with wannabe investors money. Any right investor should know where to invest anyway. Just my own piece.
