True, everyone tells you: "buy any coin on the top of CMC and you will be fine" but I have to disagree with that. It was never bad to be picky even in a discount time like this cause it was your hard earn money after all. Only invest and fill your bag with some coins really good.
How can you determined that the coin is good or not? Well, those on the top list in the CMC were actually the most picked, most established and have a good reputation in crypto space. That is why most of them suggested to just invest and buy in the top lists.
However, with regards to the projects, choosing the good ones meaning they have been doing some improvements, developments and they have a good use in crypto is the project's worth to support and invest. Not just we filled our bags with useless coins but we shall also see how this project is working until now.
True! Even with the CMC lists, we can't have enough funds to invest in all of them. Among those top listed coins, we still have to make a decision to invest in some of them. Then, how could we determine which one is better than another? You're right that we should look at what the project is doing and how it is doing. Investing just by simply looking at their trading volume can not be so accurate!
