I did not do my own research, I was interested in the link https://www.investinblockchain.com/cryptocurrencies-survive-altcoin-apocalypse/ which discussed according to the theme in this thread, taking this as a learning and not a guide.

Here are a few key features to look at when picking projects that will survive the bear run:

- Strong community
- Actual product with a product-market fit
- Elite team
- Fully capitalized (many projects will be decimated because their treasury was stored as ETH. ETH is down 60-80% since many 2017 ICOs)
- Old projects that are still relevant
- Projects supported by China which, in case you haven’t noticed, is becoming the next technological world leader
