Always try to avoid hype. Because hype is limited for a certain time and goes away very quickly. So if you wait for the hype or invest in believing the hype then you will never achieve anything big. So invest there which will give you profit in long run. It can bring you something big. Hype can't do that Hype may or may not return you a large amount in a short period of time, but it is highly unlikely because you never know when the hype will come and go. It will only fool you
Projects that depend in some way on hype are just a bubble that will disappear at any time, so yes, you should avoid investing in hype projects because if you are not a good follower of the news and one of the previous ones in entering and investing in the hype coin, you will lose your capital in a jiffy or in the short term, so I do not prefer investing in any of the currencies mentioned by the OP because they are very risky, but if he wants to invest in more money than he needs, he can try his luck, and among the best hype coins that he mentioned are NEAR, APE and MANA, and in my opinion these are the best currencies who can invest them and maybe get lucky and make good profits from them.
