Like the title says, how would you decide to invest in a coin or not especially a new one with a low cap marketcap. What information about crypto should you know before you look into these new / low cap coins too? And what would you look into these coins to know they are good to invest in.

Any guidance is appreciated.

With my little experience i will advise you not to rely 100% on any project because their main intent is only known to them, only few once has a good conscience not to scam, so this now depends on how you were able to carryout your research, you can also be on a look at some parameters during your research such as:

Liquidity
Market cap
Their address
Their history or past records
Purpose and aim of the project
Those in charge of the project

It's not a pretty easy question to answer, especially if you're a crypto user who likes to experiment with new coins and projects, but personally I've taken all/most altcoins to be very short term projects and pump and dump coins, so I more or less stay away from majority of them, ethereum is prolly the only exception, and it has done enough to present itself as a worthy and good investment, thus i always either choose Bitcoin or ethereum, cause after having done my research, they are the most reliable and productive to invest in if we're talking about long term profits.

Having said that, if your concentration is on low marketcap coins, I'm afraid you'll not easily select the good ones (if there's even any), all you just have to do is to withdraw your money as soon as you have accrued profit, these sort of coins pump and dump pretty fast, so you'll also have to be fast whenever you want to sell off, if you hodl on to them for so long, they'll more often than not, dump, and you'll lose.

Me like many chooses only Bitcoin and other top Alt-coins and rarely buy coins with low Market cap, not that I am ridge in exploring other up and coming alt-coins but the rate of scams, fake influencers, shillings and even scam motivated white paper, you hardly see a new project with low Market cap doing well and those that does will still end up dropping because it was all built on fake foundation, for now I am not investing in any new,low Market cap project.

When you choose a coin with low market cap, then you are risking yourself. But yes when you choose such coins and that are new to the market, find out the project they are focused on and the team behind it. If the coin is listed on a best exchange then yes you can hope for its growth. But better choose a coin that have a good trading volume and invest. This is advised than going for a coin that are with low market cap.

That's the thing actually should decide for yourself, we can't suggest you in that case. We can share what we do usually when choosing a coin to invest in. For me, I take a look at the project development and use case. If a project continues its development process as they promised, means they have good intentions and they are keeping a role in the crypto economy. If there is a real use case for a token or coin means it would give you good profit in near future. So that's how actually I choose a coin, now you can decide for yourself what should you do.

Identity of the developers should not change anything about the project. Look at bitcoin, nobody knows who Satoshi is and yet it is the only viable cryptocurrency that exists in real world. Now look at loads of altcoins with known developers that only exist in exchanges to be pumped and dumped.

It's hard to say but maybe Bitcoin is more special. Bitcoin is the first generation of blockchain technology. Some argue that if the inventor of bitcoin is correctly found then its value can reach 0. Hopefully that doesn't happen and Sathosi will remain anonymous. Bitcoin is becoming a mom and dad to other cryptos. That's why the current direction of altcoin movements tends to depend on btc price movements.

I personally believe that the context it is important, times are different since Satoshi were amoung you all here in the forum and a proyect being launched by anonymous creators should be a yellow flag, but not a deal-breaker on its own, scams are more common nowadays and so we shall be more cautious.

Again, just my oinion.

Yeah but it doesn't have to be scams though. We are talking about investing and viability of projects. There has been a lot of projects with known developers and even big "foundations" with a big team that turned out to be the worst projects of all times. They basically use their faces to advertise the "shitcoin" and gain popularity for different benefits.

For example I'd say one of the oldest coins that is without any innovation is Litecoin and the developer used it as a stepping stone to gain a resume and join companies like Coinbase to make a lot of money.
Or Ripple which created a useless garbage which they used to create partnerships with banks and make money that way (among other things).
The list goes on...

That is why it is only one of the things I consider worthy of checking out when picking a coin to invest, it is not a 100% deal-breaker whether a developer is anonymous or not.

On the other hand, there are projects with known developers which are quite good, being ETH the most obvious one.

A good question. Yes when new tokens/coins come into the market, we decide to invest based upon the project they have taken up. When BNB, Matic were new to the market, we believed in it as they were the exchanges and as we believed, they captured the market with their best services. Like wise, analyse the base of each coin. Just make sure if the team is true and they have team with high profiles working towards its growth. These details usually will remain in their sites. But yes their growth journey of mininum 90 days, will confirm if its worth to be invested.

If there's a possibility of linking up and surrounding yourself with people who are more knowledgeable in the field of crypto than you are, it will be of an advantage to you. Such individuals are already professional researchers when it comes to crypto and can give you credible information on which to invest, in such a situation, your research process has been made easy, and all you will be seeking to confirm is the tip from your professional/experienced crypto friends.

These are some of the things I have would consider:

- Does the new coin actually solve a problem?
- Check whether their developers are anonimous or not
-Check their road map
-Use a blockchain explorer to look for the whale concentration, if there are a few people who can dump the price, it will likely happen
-If it is a token, check its liquidity in DEFI, if the liquidity is low or if it is provided by few people it would be easier to exit-scam
-Check the partnership with actual exchanges /services
-See how much of the treasury is intended for the developers to keep
-Make sure it is an open-source and decentralized project
-Check the volume and see how much risk may represent in case of pumps-dumps

I think that this is the answer.
I will not invest in a new coin with a low market cap because it is too risky. It is like betting where we may get very high profits by the pumped price. But on the other hand, we may lose more because of the dump price. That is how commonly new coins with low caps work, the pump and dump cycle.

It's quite risky to invest because a low cap is also prone to the pump and dump which is we commonly witnessed from a pump and dump group.
For sure the safest for now to invest is in Bitcoin because even top altcoins follow the price of Bitcoin.

If it is about a new coin with a low cap, I will not expect too much for a long-term investment.

If you invested in a low cap altcoin, it seems you gamble your money and that's not for a long-term investment.
But if you're willing to risk an amount that you can afford, there are new coins that is worth it too but you need to have a deeper research first.

This is also not recommended by newbies to invest r trade in this kind of new coin, once more, too risky. If we have been usual with the new coin with low cap, we can utilize its pump price to take profits, but never use them for long-term investment because commonly the price will keep dropping after pumping. Many people have achieved very high profits because of utilizing these pump price coins. But many other people also have experienced bad losses because not know the right time to enter and out.

Even you've checked all stuffs to make sure the project is legit, as long as you're not the core team you could be scammed if the project turn to be rug pull.

Here's some stuffs usually people checking the projects:
1. Whitepaper
2. Use cases
3. Team
4. Roadmap
5. Achievements
6. Real or forked coins
7. Social media

At least this would save you from shit and unprofessional projects, but there's no guarantee 100% you'll safe.

1. The white paper can be good for novice but the project may not be that successful in term of bull run. What someone should be most careful about is a plagiarised white paper. If plagiarised, it is a fake project.

I think some people don't understand how promising and incredible the white paper looks, it doesn't justify the project not being fake. I could project name Karatcoin which their whitepaper looks so promising but the team abandon the project after raising the hard cap.

Quote from: Oshosondy on January 16, 2022, 02:50:57 AM

3. These have helped many people to find good project especially the team but not all teams of a successful projects are always celebrities.

This reminds me of Avalanche, when the project was launched altcoin enthusiast welcome it with an open arm and the early adopter of the project now make an awesome profit.

Old time traders doesn't really know the exact or accurate things upon investing on crypto since it was stated that upon investing we cannot guarantee any return. But we can see how good the project if the team is transparent, they have good plans written on their whitepaper lastly the team is experts on their field and they are not anonymous. Although we can see this but still we need to be careful and always DYOR if we talk about newly created coins and tokens.

Low cap coins are also quite risky since those coins is already dying so its risky to throw some investment on them since for sure there are so many bag holders of that coin and just waiting for their target to sell got hit by new investors so it will be crazy if you became a holder again of those low cap coins.

You check the basic who are the people behind the project and what are their capabilities and what they are bringing in the industry, we have seen projects promising to do this and that but are they capable to do that can they do AMA and webinars and gives the best answers to every question that comes along the way, what I mean is transparency all the way, they should not hold on, also check the community, it should be a community of investors and true supporters, not bots, buying bots by developers are so rampant nowadays.

If you look at alts objectively, none of them are worth investing into. Time has proved that there are no problems in real world to which altcoins/blockchain/tokens are a good solution. And there's market data to support this, because if you look at the top 100 coins from 5 years ago and see where are they now, you will see that alts were a terrible long-term investment.

First of all, you need not look at it as purely a coin, but what does the technology behind it bring to the community, and if that's something you would like to support. Check the info on the whitepaper and if the development supports the general idea. Then check their social channels, if it looks like a serious and if the development team is genuinely interested in developing a quality project. And only then look at it as an investment, when and how you will get a return. Nothing is certain and projects do fail even if all of the above requirements are met, but at least that would be a good start.
