I don't like giving out advice because I don't want to be responsible for people losing their money on my bet, which could always happen.
The only advice I ever give:
Don't invest more than you are willing to lose!
I understand as a student, you don't want to lose anything, but you have to understand that investing comes with a risk. Especially cryptos are very volatile. If you're not comfortable with that, you should put your money in a savings account.
If you do jump into this, regard your 50 as lost and you will not be disappointed, ever!
It's too bad you just missed the dip to 2600 yesterday, which to me was a good deal. It's up to you now to figure out when you wish to jump in.
In short: yes, it can be worth it in the long term. 50 is actually a perfectly fine amount to get your feet wet and test your nerves
Hope this helps a bit. Good luck!
