It matters what you consider worth it and the risk tolerance you're ready to open yourself up to. If you're a trader that's spending 40 hours a week trading and is barely able to make a few hundred dollars, or you're losing money -- then, of course, it's not even close to worth it. But if you're able to spend less time (like drastically less) and make that money then so be it.
Time is money, and you could have another job with all of the time of a full time trader.
this. so much this. ive made lots of money simply getting in stuff early and holding. especially during a bull cycle, shitcoins pump left and right. dont chase, just pick one with semi-solid fundamentals and good liquidity ($500k+) and be patient, it will have its day.
