As newbies when investing in crypto don't be satisfied with your leading knowledge attainment about crypto, endeavor to continually do research on the crypto asset's you have invested on as it would aide you on a trajectory course about your investment's. By so doing you're not easily taking by surprise on any misgiving that may arise about a portfolio you have investment with.
Said it like a crypto investor, great advice 👍
Another gateway to keep abreast is to get connected as a member of an active crypto community or platform. Having membership of different communities is an added advantage but make sure they are a genuine platform with a good history just like bitcointalk.
I don't agree to this statement as this is a 50/50 thing, as investments having nothing to do with a community or forum! If you are joining a community or forum this should be on grounds of gaining more knowledge and learning from others what they have gone through , Do's and Don'ts etcetera.
Besides not everyone will be helpful in your crypto journey when it comes to online communities/forums as others might be out to get the same coins you call an investment via dubious methods and will befriend you in trying to get get closer to you..be cyber smart!
As a matter of fact, it's very unsafe to depend on a single coin. In otherwords, invest into more than one token by spreading your investment into potential coins but be careful not to invest into pump and dump coins. Above all, make sure to maintain risk management in which ever crypto asset you are investing in.
People who have depended on a single coin such as bitcoin have been rewarded handsomely over the years and this formula still works when BTC is the coin you have.
Btw, Naturally everyone will tell you to diversify your portfolio to minimize risk, but then again, love of altcoins exposes you to bad risky coins which means pump and dump schemes can be closer to you than imagined...which means your portfolio value will be constantly fluctuating.
