In my opinion, you should do your own research.
Don’t pick any crypto just because other people say it is going to “RISE TO THE MOON” in 2018, or because you saw a 30% increase in 1 day.
I cannot stress this enough, don’t do what other people are doing but think for yourself.
Don’t be one of those FOMO people.
Be critical and look at each coin from different perspectives.
“Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime.”
Yes, but for the newcomer and even for the veterans with years, that rush when you see coins suddenly burst onto the charts, is impossible to ignore. Which is why you have to limit your exposure to all these endless news and charts. Keep your focus on your own objectives, and always apply the same principles to all coins, new and old.
FOMO is not easy to avoid, I know myself, I even bought coins like Verge because of FOMO. Luckily made profit but I know that was always a gamble.
