I prefer to take a part in long term investment because it is safer indeed.
For example, it will be safer if we buy some big coins like bitcoin, ethereum or bnb than some new altcoins.
But we need patience to hold because usually big coins price are already high, maybe few years later they will make a new ATH.
It is longer game for the bigger coins and it is the best option if you are not a trader.
But I see traders that are good with their strategy that they are not just for short term but they also for long term having themselves coins to hold for good.
No matter what happens, they will hold it. For dump and for pump.
Well I have friends who are aware of the pump and dump movements, especially in Binance, but who no longer see it as profitable, however they like it more now it is copy trading, at this moment if it is talked about in that way then it is better do it in the short term, but if you want to have security but the only thing is that you have to wait as long as necessary until the price rises is BTC, however ETH is also one of the coins that can give profit quickly if the purchase is made in an intelligent way, that is, do it in a granular way to be able to buy in the possible dips of BTC.
