Why did ICO suddenly become so popular?
There is no unambiguous answer, but there is something that brings us closer to the truth:
1. ICO is much cheaper than IPO (and safer, but not for investors, but for
organizers). For example, if you are organizing an initial placement
thousand (dollars, of course).
2. ICO organize simply and from a technical (organizational) position:
on Waves, Bitshares, Ethereum ... and a number of other services, like, say,
https://www.walletbuilders.com/.
3. ICO is not yet regulated by strict, mandatory norms,
as it is in the banking sphere or in the field of donations,
so it is easier for depositors to enter, and for investors to create.
4. ICO, among other things, is a technological process, and IT - always attracts a diverse audience
(example iPhone - perhaps the best in the new world).
You can, for certain, fetch and even more reasons.

I just joined here it was given to me with my friend to start crypto in this site, Thank you.
Start reading posts that you are interested at cause thanks to that you will be able to get information that is required to do something more like investing/ trading or making any moves on market. What is the best wallet to start with ?
Reading through a lot of guides on wallets, I found that for BTC you are good with Electrum wallet, and for ETH and ERC20 token you can use Metamask. For different coins, you can use Exodus. Those are fine but the most secure is a hardwallet like Ledger Nano S or Trezor.
What are the main differences between Ledger Nano and Trezor ?
They are the same basically. Ledger supports more coins, it's cheaper and more compact. But Trezor is open source which makes it a little bit more reliable in term of security.
This forum is a great place to start. As another post said, use the search option. Below is a link to a thread created by a user to help newbies do their own research, also known as "DYOR"

^Those are just some sources, you'll find there are many others on the internet--take our blog for instance, it's a great resource for beginners: http://bit.ly/MintDiceBlog. Furthermore, don't get overwhelmed with everyone's opinions, take them all in and ultimately create your own narrative and follow through, if you find you have to change your crypto beliefs/strategies at some point down the road, that's ok, too.
Good luck

Honestly, this guide will lead you nowhere.
Except for the read the rules here, which is the most important thing to do. The rest is just a waste of time.
The first thing to do @OP is to invest and I think you already have an idea what I'm talking about there's nothing free here anymore(aka. airdrops). And everything will just follow, you'll learn through time.
