Anyway, whatever you choose this will be the hope of future success. There are no guarantees here, so hope will somehow be present.
Even choosing technological projects that develop you will not be protected from failure. A good example of this is a cool project that works for godliness, trying to save from a number of diseases, but somehow the price is very small for it. Although the project really deserves respect and attention to viewing, by the way, this project is FOLDINGCOIN.
Projects have a real use, good purpose, technology and prospects, but unfortunately the price is very low. And what you mean is just hype coins, which are just bubbles, and have no real value.
Nothing protects you from failure except insurance and even that costs money and even that is not guaranteed. So unless you can find some insurance cover for crypto investments, you should always consider your money gone and lost.
Foldingcoin I like the project actually,,, and I sometimes check on it, but just like Elastic project, and many other good ones with good intentions, it may never become an investor's dream!
