Investing in altcoins is a risky business that involves a lot of time to research and investigate the project roots, the business model, the team, and more important elements. Time is the most precious asset we have, but the majority of us trade it for money, by going to work and trying to make a living (unfortunately not from crypto). So, I believe that some of us don’t have time to research a crypto project and invest blindly, based on other people’s opinions, or worse, based on influencers’ opinions.
What is not research:
1. Listening to your friends and making an investment decision based on their opinion.
2. Look a few minutes on CMC or CG and invest based on metrics displayed there.
3. Watching a 20-minute YT video that shows you a crypto project, even the arguments make sense.
4. Invoking divinity to show you signs of the future.
5. Seeing the price going up in the last 7 days.
6. And other more…

I mean you gotta at least do some research before investing in anything no?
It’s just works this way,
98% Dumb luck
2% DYOR
Does asking wen lambo in a shady discord server count as research?
I voted never, just to make other people feel better about themselves.
I buy first, research later, if at all.
If your not doing your own research then you should buy high and sell low.
I research everything, I did ape into LRC though and down massively. Everything else, yes.
Unfortunately no matter how much research you do, sometimes it’s all just luck.
1 person voted never… Now I wanna know his portfolio’s returns…
I often do my research.
What?! Seldom and occasionally almost 0% and never 12%… š¤Æš¤Æšµšµ
Sometimes I do. If thereās hype on a genuine project 9/10 there is money to be made, at least in the short-term.
Why waste time when I can 100x
There are 4 types of āinvestorsā.
1. Shill followers: these are the guys who buy everything that is shilling around (twitter, Reddit) and expects that it makes x10 or more! Never gone happened!
2. The moon follower: the guys who purchase coins that alreadyās mooning and expects another leg up but instead itās going down, hard!
3. The cautious guy: he seeās coins shilling, do some research on it, it sees that it starts to go up and puts a low entry but never goes that down, so it goes all in on high and than it goes down, hard!
4. The wise guy: the one that doesnāt care about shillings, DYOR, puts his entryās accordingly and patiently waits! Gets bigs rewards following his own system!
Which one is you?
People who donāt do research are asking to get scammed.
Nah I just spin the wheel and invest in the dodgiest looking moon shot I can find….. or not.
White paper, doxxed, actual mechanics, initial burn bc of hidden whales, blockchain tech…if all that is okay, Im in.
If I see red flags on those subjects? I still buy in.
I always vote always in these things
Research ??
Research is necessary before any investment.
Research? I research musks tweet before going all in doge mate. Best research there is!!
Can i tag a comment as comedy?š
Donāt get time for research so I invest in known good projects
Nope. If itās shilled to me hard enough I buy
I had to google the word research before I could answer the poll lol. What the fuck does research even mean
Of course I research. If research says it’s got Inu, Elon or Moon in its name , then it’s a buy. Thought everyone knew this
I choose by putting my wet finger in the air to feel which way the wind is blowing āļøšØ & DYOR + luck
People buy what they hear is good. Lol . Zero research, zero fucks
This is a really good poll because I can see how many % of this sub’s active visitors are GOD DAMN LIARS
I usually do unless itās something like APE. Iāll sell as soon as o get some profits tho in coins like ape
Sir this is a casino, we donāt research we gamble
Does searching this sub for info on said coin count as research? /s
Understanding project fundamentals is crucial but I think you might be underestimating the “other people’s opinions” aspect of research. Markets aren’t rational; hype is important. That doesn’t mean just lazily browsing Reddit, of course. But I think it’s crucial to triangulate the Internet’s general sentiment toward a project.
Personally, I prefer a balanced, heuristic approach: I invest in projects that have good albeit not necessarily perfect fundamentals as well as a healthy amount of social momentum.
Sooo many liars in this post XD
Often just buy and do research later. If it goes up it’s great, if not then diamond hands.
You mean spending all my time here is not research?!
I just listen to influencers and venture capitalists, they want only the best for me
Usually I just check to see if the coin is named after a dog or has āsafeā in the name. If the name checks out, my next step is to take a look at the logo. For example, if the coins name is āsafedogeinumoonā and the logo is a dog with a rocket ship for paws i know the devs did their homework when they coded the token.
