If you want to gamble with your money then go for memecoins and just like in gambling you are very much likely to lose in memecoin. A recent example is The Trump Coin, it went up for few days after it's launch and since then it's down. Those who bought The Trump Coin when it was trading above 30$ are in great trouble now because price has gone down to 12$ and there is no indication that it will go up from here.
If you have spare cash and looking to invest in alts then better choose top 10 from coinmarketcap.com for investment. Don't invest too much in alts, just the one you can afford to lose.
Those people were fools to trust Trump and his name to make them any money. It was obviously on day one that we are not going to see anyone make any money from it. The people who got in at the moment, like very very early one, then they may have made some money, but anyone who bought after first 24 hours, lost money and that will always be the case.
We should realize, this could be a big deal and we should be considering this as a big example for all of us. If we keep trusting these scammers, including trump, then we are not going to make any money at all. If we should see this being a big trouble, then we need to focus on how to make as much money as we could from the real legit ones and not focus on anything else.
