The situation is slowly changing right now. I even think that altcoin season is nearing. The potential of some altcoins are high right now that I think would be the driver for the next bull market. You just have to research deeply what are those cryptocurrencies.
Some altcoin are in green marks lately so to invest just those with potential project. Yes, you have to do some diligence on which project that has a high potential and look these days it is increasing in the market. Also good to have some first bitcoin in our wallet it is my first crypto which I invest and hold.
