I think every cryptocurrency has a risk. Nothing cryptocurrency has no risk.  Top 100 crypto or even bitcoin itself is at risk. only risk when we buy bitcoin smaller than when we buy other coins.

If you want to invest without risky moves invest in the top 100 altcoins it's better to know their potential than without knowing what will happen.

It depends on the project, choose a project that has a good potential in the future. If you invest in a staring project while their coin is still cheap then when it moons, you can earn a ton of money but it's more risky. So search for a good project with good product/s. Smiley

Hey what do you think, is it risky to buy crypto currencies that are not top 100? I mean do you have a higher chance to lose your money or not?
The chance of losing money exists on any coin and its number is not important in the list. Another thing is the total number of coins and the volume of trading, these are really real numbers that can not be deceived.

Personally, I only choose the coin top 20 to trade, I think it will be safer, but the gains will bring no sudden change with the new currency.

Its very risky because they might be delisted in future for low volume trading on exchange which can make you loose your investment.

You are talking about coins that are far under top-400 but those that are under top-100 have great trading volumes. SYScoin, Zcoin, Dragonchain, Storj, Civic, iExec, SONM and others - they are listed on good exchanges with good volumes, so it is not so risky to invest in such coins from top100+
If we talk about the risk, everything is risk. We must take the risk to try the opportunity to get something as reward.
But top 100 is not very risky, because its better popular and also have better volume. But sometime it can be down below 100 because loss popularity.

Everything is risky in this market. But you can still find some diamonds in the dirt way bellow top 100. IoTex, IoTChain or EximChain. These projects are real with some great partnerships. IoTChain will have it's main net by the end of this year and this is DAG with PBFT (very interesting one). Do some research and you will definitely find some great projects there.
Yes of course because they might be no longer around and possible some of them are scam, that's why you need to check the cryptocurrency before you buyed it. Or else buy those have potential or listed top crypto because surely you'll get earn from it. But if you other crypto then make sure about it, do some research then if you think is good enough then buy that crypto, but take the possibility you might get worth or worthless crypto.

The present circumstance is that you are exceptionally hazardous regardless of which money you purchase, not only the best 100, since it has just emitted, it is hard to break out again in such a brief timeframe. So be extremely cautious.

It is even risky to buy ICOs from the top 100 not to talk of buying below top 100. Everything is risky even life itself.

Of course, it's risky. Generally, the projects that are not in the first 100 scam can come out. I've been saying this for a long time on the list. Not for ICOs.

Yes, that is good news that is valid enough for its truth. Coins that have a safe and good quality level to invest will be ranked top. Because they are quite competent in developing its technology. While the coin is above 100 is very vulnerable to scam and also the development is not going well. Be careful in choosing a coin, so you do not get stuck on a coin that will only decline.

it depends on how you understand the project you want to invest, but I do not agree if the bottom 100 ranking is dangerous, I think people are not familiar with the project so there are not many who want to buy tokens or coins. understand whitepaper project, if you are sure then follow the project.

I think to invest in a crypto currency then you should see an opportunity to be able to get profit and it would be more profitable if investing in coins that have a good price movement and is a coin that has a good future

If the project is promising, then you will only earn from your investments. It is necessary to carefully analyze the campaign, its idea and team and follow the news and development process.

Even top 100 are riskier mate. Everything is risky in crypto. Invest only as much as you can afford to loose. There are many coins which are in top 100 just because of its market manipulation and buying them is very risky.

I think it's very risky. I would only choose crypto in the top 100 rankings. fluctuations and markets are the main thing in choosing a crypto.
always alert in looking at the market might be a very helpful thing in buying crypto

Generally, you're better off investing in a more established choice, in terms of safety, of course.
However, every project started somewhere, and most top 100 coins weren't in the top 100 when they started.

Simply put, you could assume a newer project has a higher risk of failure, and thus higher risk of losing your investment.
But, assuming you invest in a useful project, and it succeeds, you've got a higher return.

There's plenty of great projects that are out of top 100, and I personally invest primarily in those.
However, you must ensure that you take the time to research the projects you consider investing in!
You can read this thread for some general tips on what to look for.

While I personally believe crypto is far, far from it's end point, we can still safely say that Bitcoin going to 100k/bitcoin would be huge, considering it'd likely drive the entire market with it and therefore the entire market cap would 10x.
At the same time, a much smaller and newer project, could 10x without it barely affecting more than a 0.01% of the market, potentially.

However, avoid going too low, since projects with very little volume are easily manipulated.

Also consider that a $1,000 investment in Bitcoin, and it somehow manages to surge to 100k each, would still 'only' give you $10k.
$1,000 in a small project however, could surely end up giving you $50,000 if it's done well.
(although some believe those times are over).

The further you go from the top, the more 'dangerous' it becomes, there's constant shilling around many small and new projects.
You are in charge of your money, and it's up to you how far you'll dig into a project before you invest in it.
If you have time and patience and truly find some great projects, then you should invest in those.
However, if you don't, you might be better off investing in one of the top coins.
(although many of those aren't really worth to be there in my personal opinion).
There's no guarantee any coins on top 100 will stay there.

Crypto is volatile, and % gains that could happen in a year on the stock market, could happen over night in crypto.
This also works in the other direction(loss).

So, simply put, if you want a safer crypto investment, go with top coins(Bitcoin/ETH/Monero I'd say).
You can still lose, but it's not the same risks that applies to smaller coins.

And, don't let someone tell you what to invest in - you can hear of projects, but still, make sure you read!
(again, some tips in the thread I linked earlier)  Cheesy

Final note, even if a great project is out of top 100, it could be a very limited use case.
If you find a great project in an early stage, it could very well give you 50x on your investment, without ever entering the top 100.
What matters is the market cap, if it goes from $1m to $10m, that's 10x - although with such a very small market cap, it's still a very, very risky investment since likely someone is in control of a large amount of the coin, or it's an easy target for a 'pump and dump' - however, case is still valid - it's 10x your money, while still being far from top 100. With such a small market cap, there's likely very few people there to buy from you aswell.
 
In my opinion, many projects are severely overvaluated currently. There are so many projects valued at hundreds of millions of dollars, for no apparent reason.
Be careful and make sure you invest into something valued, because who knows when the purge will come (it bubble).
There are many great projects outside of the top 100's that I'm certain will one day enter the top 100, however, in general, these projects are in early stages and therefore, it's waiting involved.

To summarize, if there were some clear ways to gain money, everyone would be doing it.
The market is bleeding and has been for a while.
There are still projects that has increased, 50%, 100%, 200%, just in the past days.
There are plenty of projects that will increase 500%, 1000%, 2000% in the soon future.
It's up to you to find them.
There's also plenty of projects that will only continue losing value.
It's up to you to avoid them.

High risk, high reward!

Your risk percentage is certainly present, but it is a very good opportunity to earn much more profit .
