I guess you need to do your own research to avoid jumping on a hyped project that doesn't have long-term potential, this is very important to do in other to protect your investment in the long run., there is no doubt some projects have gained hype lately and even as there is so much potential to earn a good return on investment, it's very important to do a deep due diligence to escape bad projects, e.g some of the meme coins.
Hyped are truly just there to make things hard for those who don't know what is truly happening in reality because everything they see is just a happy event and they don't know the storm that is about to happen once the hype is over. that's what the NFT fanatics think about last time they were buying expensive NFT products and others invested in some games that don't have any solid developers to support the game and they all ended up regretting their decisions because they wasted their investment and they didn't get the earnings from it as it didn't raise its price until now. so you really need to be vigilant when it comes to your investment in crypto so that you won't learn your lesson the hard way.
