Investing in altcoins is considered fairly risky in 2020.
Most of the popular ICO/ITOs in 2017 and 2018 (at the peak of all the hype) have almost been dissolved with investors losing almost everything.
I personally invested in this company called JET8 Foundation (issued J8T tokens) where the project team cashed out the capital funds and left the token to die. If you check coinmarketcap and other exchanges it is listed on, the ROI states -98.7%.
That's the investment change to date.
Thus far only the super popular and hyped-up projects like DIGIX, TRON, XRP, EOS, etc that are considered doing well.
Thread carefully when investing in altcoins. Don't believe all the hype that is created by others unless it is by a trustworthy team with sound tokenomics.
