I did invest in lots of altcoins and i received many tokens from bounties as reward. I experienced that, most of the tokens turns into shitcoin or dead after a few months. Some Altcoins performed very good for a certain time then all of those lost 90-95% of values and still traded on exchange with so called volume. Thus process is continued. Even top altcoins also replaced by new altcoins. 2017 vs 2023.
Moral: I think BTC and ETHEREUM is better option for investment, Can be trusted blindly, profitable for long. Low Ranked Altcoins, Memecoins and shitcoins are just headache and reason of huge losses in long time. But anyone can invest his money wherever they want.
BTC and ETHEREUM are undoubtedly the best investments for large capital. 75% of all TVL DEFI is now in the Ethereum ecosystem.
But who wants to earn a little more and have more risks, then there are other fundamental altcoins, for example Solana, Polkadot, the price of which has fallen by 90% from ATH.
I do agree that ETH should be at the top of the list for everyone, it's by far the best altocin and when the next bull run comes we will remember why. It may sound boring because it's already at the top and that is why people avoid investing into it, or talk about it at least because they do invest into it since it's still second ranked, but it should be reminded to everyone that it is second ranked for a reason.
ETH is a strong and independent decentralized project that managed to turn into proof of stake so you could earn interest from it as well. It will continue to be a strong project for a long time, I can't see it it could reach to a lower rank, it will stay strong for a good while and will be powerful.
