there are various types of coin you should look for, let me help with that:
Long-term - something that warrants a blockchain. Not every idea needs one. Something that will or could disrupt an industry. Something that solves a real-world problem, not just a convenience. Active and experienced team. Professional communications. Excellent website with transparency. Low market cap. Residual application or multiplicity. Clear roadmap and low barrier to entry
Short term - hype-worthy but not yet hyped. Low supply and low market cap. Masternode or lending. Moderate yet legit exchange. Volume over $50k. Tangible incentives. Active team/communications.
Basically, you can choose a shit coin with a low entry point and if it's hype-worthy, goodwill will do the work for you. XIOS is a prime example. Look for a pump and dump trends and see their signs before they happen.
