DGB, STR, XRP ... on June now your fund is arround 30%.
From June BTC make more than double.DGB, STR, XRP = clear SCAM
BTC is very volatile, nevertheless. In the long run, I'm bullish on BTC. But in the short run, it can go down 30-40% in a month.

so what the op mean when he says low market cap, does it mean the ico period or listed on the exchange for a long time? If it's the former, i think it has great potential, otherwise, it means its a scam at a large probablity
I think it is , and it isn't as risky as people say , but there is alot of room to grow.
I don't see why a higher marketcap is less risky.

It depends on the market cap relative to the fundamental value. This can be somewhat determined with stocks, but it is difficult with cryptos.
In stocks, it is risky when the stock is over-priced (market cap is higher than fundamental value) and less risky when under-priced (market cap is lower than fundamental value).
It's extremely difficult to know if a crypto is over priced or under priced.
Yes, most stocks are overpriced. The indexes, such as S&P 500, are overpriced. Some stocks are insanely overpriced. Facebook took a needed correction yesterday. Some stocks are still underpriced.
If the market crashes, there is going to be bloodbath.
That is not correct in my opinion. There are many pros and cons of low market cap altcoins as if they spike up suddenly, you get huge profit, but they suddenly nosedive, you got huge losses. Low market cap means no demand of coin, so low price and low market cap.
It can also be means that the coin are not yet discovered by investors an I think this is the main point of OP for this thread. If you buy in early stage, the chance of making profit is greater than buying a coin on it's price peak. It only requires some FUD and speculation thread for the coin to notice by investors.

It can be, much more room to run, its funny when people talk about low cap crypto as risky. Its all risky, the reality is even BTC has a ton of risk. I would argue that you should pick what you think are the best projects via your research. Low Cap, High Cap, everything has a ton of room to run

I think that it is a good time to invest your money either in bitcoin or altcoins right now since the marketcap is quite low. I am not a good trader so that I can not tell you whether the price of everything will decrease again in the next few years. You can make your own analysis to calculate and consider whether bitcoin will drop again or not
Not always. Only when you are sure that the team behind a project will deliver and they are not leaving it behind.
Sometimes low marketcap means that the team ain't sure they can collect more. Sometimes it means they are not greedy and want to give people some candy too. You must be able to tell the difference.

if you do not want risk just buy btc or eth and you can expect good returns. better then any other market anyhow. but if you invest into small cap coins that have good potential you could earn an insane amount of money.
It's really a case by case basis. As others have said high risk and high reward. One way to do it is to spread your investment around so it's not all in one basket.
this is not true for crypto market. Let say you invest in DGB, STR, XRP, SYS... on June now your fund is arround 30%. Sometime choose right coin is better. I'd say the majority of projects aren't worth holding for the long term.
Unless they have huge communities or great technology.

Why SYSCOIN not growing? It literaly Amazon of low price!
So Market Cap only takes into account the total no of coins in circulation multiplied by its last price that it was traded at. This last price can be easily manipulated by the market maker. When investing in a coin I look into total supply of the coin vs the supply of the coin that is in circulation. There are a few projects which have locked down 50% or even more supply for few years and limited their market circulation price. Be cautious.
I think in this day and age it has changed some what... Back when altcoins first started exploding at the end of 2013, you could invest in pretty much any new coin and make a quick buck.
Now there are so many different ideas out there, different coins that all actually have potential, that it's difficult to choose which ones to invest in. There are many coins with good ideas, now it's really important to check the credentials of the team and make sure the idea behind the coin is sound, that they have an achievement roadmap etc.
Don't buy acoin just because it's 400th+ on coinmarketcap and could increase... does it have good technology behind it? Who's driving the development? etc
If I were to invest in any at the moment they'd be ones that have been around a while and are at least top 100 market cap. Buying/selling low volume coins is also a complete hassle. Even if it goes up 100x it doesn't matter if no one is buying!

All projects initially have lower market capitalization. They always have more chances to increase your capital than those companies which have a high degree of capitalization. That's why startups are so attractive for investors. It's like a car start. When he starts from the place it quickly picks up speed, but then it is more difficult to do, after reaching the maximum at all possible.
