Never be afraid to lose or lose money, learning costs a lot and if we are newbies without trying much then like blind people who keep groping and will not know the straight path, new projects are good opportunities for profit so I recommend investing in new project.
What you say is true but before entering to invest in a new project it is better to study first with many references as is the case in this forum because many things about potential projects have been discussed by many members here so when entering into a project there is nothing to lose. This is because everyone's mentality is different, even though the ultimate goal of investing is to make a profit, so don't rush into a new project.
