Many ventured into it because their friends are buying into different altcoins trending on social media.

Ask for a whitepaper this tells you everything about the project: The currency use case, community engagement, plans, scalability and other features you need to know.

Possibly you have heard your friend talking about the bullish or bearish market and every news around crypto this moment sweet your ears, you need to play safe as your financial health is important. Invest amounts that do not pull you back adversely.

3. Diversify Your Investment

Strike a balance when you are investing and try not to put all your fingers in one bag, it will burn. You need to carry out some analysis on your asset allocation, group them as a stable and risky investment and balance them between some leading crypto market leaders like Ethereum, Bitcoin, Solana and also pick some lesser mainstream tokens, you can check coingecko or coinmarketcap for your guide.

NOTE: Stay clear from coin/token not listed on a reputable exchange.

In conclusion, the crypto world is full of misinformation, scams and people leading many astray because of excitement around what they read or heard from friends and forgetting personal research. You mustn't have to trust every information from social media without you carry out your personal research and ask questions from people in the space, there is always somebody to answer your question.
