Any coin that survives this bear market will do well come the bull season
What do you mean survive? Many altcoins will survive, but they may not have the funds for further development and they will continue to exist, but they will not show much growth. They may have some small periodic pumps, but it will be difficult to call it growth. If you want to invest in altcoins, then at least look at who has good pumps now, this will increase the chances of them repeating in a bull market, but remember alts are always big risks.
