How do you do your own research if the coin is a good investment?
For me, I always look on the purpose of the project, the team behind it, what exchanges is it available on etc. And one of the important thing for me is the total supply of the coin.
I also research if the coin is Proof of Work (POW), Proof of Stake (POS), Pre-mined or other.
that is the thing that essential in looking for a good project the purpose and the team behind it , other than that i cant see anything that might help a person to have an idea on how the project will run successfully. And also for me is when it will be available in the exchange .
