The market is still poor and that's the major concern for crypto lovers
Do yo measure the market's "richness" by any scale? I dont think so and thus comment is pure emotion and not factual. The capitalization of the market is another thing. Bitcoin does have the biggest market capitalization by far and no altcoin would be able to exceed that because bitcoin is the main source of buying altcoins.
Cryptocurrency is a very high risk investment. With regular changes in its legality in different nations, price manipulations, and high volatility. It is not a safe way to make investments. But has potential as a method of transaction. This is the reason some hodl for long term.
Well hodl will save you from the short term movements and if you dont get moved by them then you coins would be pretty safe from being sold at manipulation. But also comes into view the fact that how long you can hodl the asset.
