Op, you should not have bought shit coins in old days but must have focused on this new trend. Don't regret for the past, keep faith in your present investments and hold them for longer and see their returns, I bet there will be even better results than those past old days.
We should make hard research about the project which we want to invest in. It is so necessary, there are a lot of projects and all of them are not successful. For that l think to make research is one of the best keys of success. Mostly l prefer staying away from new projects, that is why some of them can be easily shit coins in the near future. I'm ore interested to invest in top altcoins. They are absolutely the best for long-term investing, you can see the result of ETH. That is right this coin has dropped 3% nowadays, however, l believe ETH has more potential to reach 2-3k than other currencies. You can be enough patient, but as an above-mentioned patient is not everything. If you have made the wrong choice for long-term investment, no exaggeration to say that patient can not do anything for you.
