I actually believe that 99% of people are losing in trading. A much better option is to focus on top projects and invest in them. You will earn your money sooner than later.
What do you mean by investing in top projects? ICOs? buying alts and holding? NFTs?
I agree with you that trading is very risky, some sort of gambling IMO (although not as much as 99% of losers...) but hodling is also risky if you choose the wrong project, or simply if the the market behaves the opposite of what you expected in the long term.
I believe both are actually risky if you are not 100% sure if what you are doing.
