I take investing on shitcoins to be memes mimicking on bitcoin because shitcoins are full of manipulations right from the developers to the project teams. They are literally a luring projects that speculates in the crypto ecosystem just to acquire values but all to no avail to profer investors any form of reliability like bitcoin does.
Bitcoin has proven itself back to back and still holding the kingship in the crypto industry and as a matter of fact that the market is uncertainty, the risk of Investing in bitcoin is only at it unpredictability while the shitcoins is project entirely surrounded with risks that you don't even know if the coin is still going to exists talk more of yielding good values.
Bitcoin was built by its founder with the purest of intentions to change the world and to solve the problem of money/create a better form of money. Those other cryptocurrencies that were created AFTER Bitcoin took advantage of the community's interest on crypto and took their Bitcoin away from them.
Those people who HODL shitcoins will debate with you to protect the value of their coins without actually understanding the underlying.
