Investing in new projects is a risky situation. Because even if the project is not a scam, it will fail if it cannot find the funds which its needs. And the profit which you can get depends on how much potential the project has. I usually prefer to invest only very small amounts in new projects that which i think have such a good team and vision, because of the risk is high.
Basically all new projects have the same level of risk and also have different levels of success because from a different team perspective and performance, this is what makes the potential and life of the project a differentiator for the future because it always starts with recruiting investors into it.
I agree, but if this young project ever has a chance to succeed, you will be a huge beneficiary of it! Although we all understand that the best course of action is to get started as soon as possible, the problem is that we don't know if our efforts will be rewarded later on or not. If our efforts are rewarded later on, we will undoubtedly reap substantial profits, but if they are not, we should simply move on. As for myself, I believe that taking risks is preferable to not taking any risks because we will not be able to earn large sums of money if we remain in our comfort zones.
