I have lost a lot since January but hodling still and wants to buy more.
Any Good project suggestions will be helpful.
I suggest you to visit coinmaketcap and start from BTC and then just check all top 100 coins one by one. There is all info regarding coins with links to their sites and all info you need to know. It is best to you decide in what coin to invest, at the end it is your money.
If (when) some new BTC pump starts, it will affect all altcoins more or less. So it all depends on BTC in the end, but with some proven coins like ETH, LTC, DASH and some others you can not make a mistake. It would be good to check coin price before big pump last year, so you will get some info how some coin reacts compared to BTC pump or dump.
