But never the less that is certainly not the end of altcoins
Running a lost as an altcoin investor can be easy because there are various altcoin out there And so many are poorly managed.
You can cut your losses to some extent by.
*investing in several top altcoin(spread your investment)
*seeking expert opinion
*disregard shilling or FUD
And if you must move a way from established altcoins
*study the volume
*check on the project owners reputation
*compare and contrast the white paper, potential investors and future possibilities of the coin.
And one major key for every cryptocurrency investor is patience and hold I repeat you your altcoin
One thing for sure that really makes the altcoin unreliable is through the projects themselves who operates ahead without really being able to prove to be competent enough to face the market in any situation. I think altcoin industry is still productive as we should learn how to use it well on trading platforms rather tan ICO's.
