Meaning that not because we invest in Bitcoin we all gonna make a profit. Losses is inevitable and that also lies in our hands as we make a decision differently. We saw some people make rich in crypto, and gain thousand or million dollars, and literally, we ask how? And they probably will answer buy, hold, and sell at high - that seems easy to understand and it was not hard to do. But unfortunately, not all went successfully, many had lost their minds due to panic and impatient.

It's about being lucky with that kind of altcoin that we're investing especially if we are participating in a presale campaign. Even private sales campaign won't guarantee you an edge because there are chances that it will go even lower than its price. And worse, most of the private sales has a vesting period.

Yes I agree with you about the "diamond in the dirt" thing regarding altcoins. Been there done that.

That's why it says "volatile", you may see the price will just randomly exploded for some reasons in just matter of times . People are not ready for this especially in altcoins where they think that they can just let the coins freeze in their wallet without any proper research first. The way they watch their altcoins are totally wrong hence the losses are in their hands.

Let's be real here, most of the presale coins are worth nothing in the future because most of them are just scammers and failed at the end without getting listed in any exchanges. Even though they manage to list it, the price would look really bad in just few days. I'd recommend to just stay away with it, unless you know what to do and sure with whatever risks you face later on.

Without much agitation as why it should be otherwise, I think most of the cryptocurrency investors that comes to pick up the innovation for an investment forget the fact that, the field have been a decade plus old and although we continue to have more internal innovations, it's best age is long past.
The most you could do to benefit more from its future is to be patient and patience is what these guys lack the most. They invest today and belive they should be rraping in few days or weeks or months as the case maybe be.
The question here is;
Where is the profit expected to come from? Out if the thin air?

Ofcourse from new investors for which thy could be playing the part as well. Its just the what it is.
