Nice post! Best thing you can do for yourself is your OWN research. Look into what your investing in. Visit the coins website. Does it feel shady? Does the site work? I can not tell you how many coins I look into, when I get to the site and links 404 and 503 me. They want us to put our money behind their particular coin but don’t give the impression they’ve thought it through.

Read up on the creators, or “The Team” of the coin. At the least google them. Who are they.

Anyhow I’m ranting on. Research research research, and remember to only invest what you can afford to hand to the guy sitting in the park and walk away.
