It seems not anymore now. At the moment there are many new coins that have no price and are not even listed on the exchange, and that makes many people realize that now is different from 2017. That is why many new projects are difficult to get funding and will become a garbage project in the future.
Right, now it's no longer the same as in 2017, because at that time many projects were easy to get funding in real and instant, so now the project teams must make a unique way so that their projects can easily get funding.
Sad to hear but we need to face the reality, that the profit we made during those times we don't know if we can still experience it or not anymore, so right now we should find ways for us to have some other opportunities that will help us in our daily life, we should not just rely in crypto but in everything else as well.
