#Altcoin101

Before jumping into any altcoin, beginners should focus on one thing above all: understanding the project’s purpose. Not every coin is created to “moon,” and many exist just because someone wanted to ride a trend. Look for altcoins that solve a real problem or bring something new to the crypto space. Read the whitepaper in simple terms, check whether the team is active, and see if the community is genuinely interested—not just hyping it for quick pumps. Altcoins move fast because their markets are smaller and more sensitive, so big swings are normal. That’s why doing proper research and setting realistic expectations can save you from emotional decisions. Investing becomes much easier when you actually know what you’re buying instead of just following noise.
