My first coin ever purchased was a bitcoin. Bitcoin was so tempting at that time and it was the reason I actually got into crypto. Steemit has completely opened my eyes about how huge opportunity blockchain can provide. However, I have to say I was lucky as well. Before I purchased bitcoin I was tempted to buy Bitconnect. It was being advertised on my favorite You-Tube Chanel’s so much, that it was impossible not noticing it. Fortunately I didn’t get fulled. At the end you just have to choose whatever suits you. As a good investor, you should listen to other opinions, but you have to do your research as well when it comes to buying altcoins as a newbie. Being diversified and buying liquid coins is important st well.
BTW: nice place especially when everything is growing up. I love places like this and share them with steemit community.
