I've been in the game since 2015, hold all the major cryptos, like BTC, ETH, SOL, BNB, ADA, you name it...
I'm looking to put a small percentage of my portfolio into some interesting low cap projects, and I'm wondering if I'm missing out on some true gems, which is why I decided to post here.
All i can suggest is for you to intensify you research before investing on them, i wouldn't discourage you from investing on any since you have already taken the right and appropriate step towards investing on bitcoin and other top altcoins we have, investing on other low cap cryptocurrencies should be on something that you can afford to loose, and if you're that lucky that the projects becomes successful, then you're going to make more money to your portfolio, but never forget that you're taking high risk on them now.
He is not new in here, so I'm very sure that he knows this already and this is why he is here despite of having a long experience. It seems he wants to play it very safely. I won't judge him yet and call him lazy for this.
Not all coins are good, so investing on any of them is still not a good advice to give. I know we already have a base of our investment but that will still be a waste of money and we are only helping the scammers there that have no real/good contributions on this space. Luck is not alone here but there is also knowledge and skill, especially if you are successful on not just one risky type of project but a couple of them.
