I actually agree with you. I am also done trying to find that 100x on my own as I think it is nearly impossible. I am just going to follow smart people and follow coins on good exchanges like Binance and hope for the best.
Binance has become a very common path for everyone to use nowadays so you can't go wrong if you want to choose Binance as a way to find 100x yourself because Binance has lots of good coins and tokens and you can choose your own without having to ask for help from others.
