It's how the game of shitcoin works. If you are fast enough and know what you are doing, You can gain massive profits from it but if you are just a newbie trying to ride it by investing and hoping to rise, Your chance of getting a profit is less than 50% I believe since there are different factors. No matter how you tell people to stop investing on shitcoins, We can't just stop them because there are regular traders who are living their daily lives in investing and trading these shitcoins. It's just few days back where memecoins showed a large price bump. Everyone gets into it and makes massive wins but today, We can see that those memecoins go down and I believe late investors where wiped.
That is why investors who are looking for solid alternatives of cryptocurrencies to invest should give more attention to the main altcoins of the market, instead of trying to hit a hidden gem hoping it's going to reward them x100 or x1000 in a single investment. The most conservative altcoin is still Ethereum, and there also the stablecoins alternatives plus Binance Coin, in case the investor doesn't get annoyed by the fact their investment will be on the hands of a single exchange's performance...
On the final positions of top 10 there are Solana, XRP, Cardano and Polygon, although I'm not sure if they are able to maintain position or if they are going to be replaced on the following years, because crypto market is really volatile. Personally, I think the most conservative strategy is the best one.
