I think your question is a bit flawed, let me explain why. The best way IMO to make money in crypto is to invest in projects outside of the top 500, projects that haven't increased in value yet. What you are basically saying is that only the top 500 projects by marketcap have any use case, this is wrong. There are a lot of dead chains and tokens with ponzi economics with no utility in the top 50 CMC. I suggest looking at new projects listings on CMC etc. and start there, that's how I found 0xMR and eXRD.
