Crypto beginner

So I’ve been trying to get into crypto from November putting small amounts of money in coins “credible” dudes on twitter suggest, nothing special. I have had a tough time learning about it, how to find a project that will pump, how to do the research for it. All the guys I’ve seen actually winning in crypto, don’t draw lines on a graph and nerd about it, all of them just “do research “, hop on early and get 10-100x gains. Are there any resources on this I can learn from or does anyone know how to acquire this skill. I see there’s been a lot of hype and attention in Ai agents and big data, just want to learn how I can snipe out quality microcaps from these categories. Thanks in advance.

If you are thinking about investing in completely new coins, you must be a genius to be able to find a winner at right time. This is because there are thousands of coins being launched each day. All will use promotion techniques to lure others.

I wouldn't do that, I don't know what influencers or gurus you are following, but blindly buying what they suggest is very risky - there are lots of those influencers dumping on their followers, they suggest something and then it's just a rug pull or a low quality coin that will eventually die, they are being paid to promote this kind of garbage and you are the exit liquidity.

Think twice before adopting this approach, it's still early and you can buy some reliable Top 100-200 coins instead of trying to hit the jackpot, 100X is not a sustainable goal

It's really hard to predict which ones will tank and which ones will make you tons of money. You have to listen and read about some trends.

See here’s the thing, alex becker predicted a lot of ai coins that 10x and are now at a 10-100mil mcap… he’s an example, he said people found Reploy at the beginning and got like a 15x gain (when he suggested it it went to like a 6 x)… This is what I meant, I don’t like memecoins or dumping my money into fresh coins I just want to know how they do their so called “research “

What credible dudes you are following ?

Follow @SimonDixonTwitt on twitter and really listen to his Twitter Spaces and videos on youtube or wherever. He will explain the fundamental issue with central banks, US ponzi scheme Dollars, and the best strategy to not be poor when you are older. It wont be gambling in shitcoins (even tho I do and its fun).... but not the smartest strategy.

What's up!

If you're looking to invest in crypto projects early, check out IEOs (Initial Exchange Offerings), IGOs (Initial Game Offerings), and IDOs (Initial DEX Offerings). IEOs and IGOs are hosted on centralized exchanges (CEXs) and marketplaces, while IDOs take place on decentralized exchanges (DEXs).

Basically, analysts do the research and select promising projects, giving traders like us a chance to buy tokens before they hit the open market. Once they get listed, the price often pumps, allowing for significant profits.

However, with limited funds, participating can be tricky. Many presales have minimum investment amounts, or they use a lottery system for allocation. Even with a small allocation, it can be profitable if you have a quick exit strategy. Sell right after the listing hype dies down, because the price usually corrects significantly afterwards.

A good strategy is to take those profits and invest them into more established cryptos with real-world use cases, the ones used for everyday transactions.

Getting into cryptocurrency and specifically identifying promising early-stage projects can be challenging, but with the right approach, it can be a rewarding endeavor. This guide is designed to help you conduct thorough research (DYOR) to discover high-potential crypto projects, especially in sectors like AI and big data that are experiencing significant growth.

First, establish a strong foundation in crypto fundamentals. This includes understanding tokenomics (how token supply and distribution affect value), use cases (the real-world problem a project solves), and consensus mechanisms (like Proof of Work or Proof of Stake that impact security and scalability). Resources like free online courses from Binance Academy or CoinMarketCap Earn, or books like "Mastering Bitcoin" by Andreas Antonopoulos can provide a solid base.

Once you have a grasp of the basics, you can delve into researching specific crypto projects. Here, the key is to focus on the team's experience (look for founders with a public track record in tech, crypto, or finance), the project's community engagement (active social media channels and discussions are positive signs), and the whitepaper (a well-written whitepaper that outlines a clear technical roadmap and solves a genuine problem is ideal). Additionally, check for partnerships with reputable venture capital firms (a16z, Sequoia, or Alameda) as this can indicate a promising project.

To give yourself an edge in finding early gems, explore new trends and projects with low market caps. Stay ahead of the curve by identifying sectors like AI, gaming (GameFi), DeFi 2.0, or cross-chain solutions that are gaining traction. Platforms like Polkastarter, DAO Maker, and Seedify often launch new projects, so monitor these for promising tokens. Additionally, leverage on-chain data analysis tools to track large wallet activity and identify projects generating significant interest. Following developer ecosystems like Arbitrum, Optimism, or zkSync can also be fruitful, as these often attract innovative projects.

Remember, avoiding common pitfalls is crucial. Never invest more than you can afford to lose, especially in high-risk microcaps. Don't chase trends blindly (FOMO) and invest based on thorough research. Microcaps are particularly susceptible to scams (rug pulls), so be extra cautious and do your due diligence before investing.

Given your interest in AI and big data, look for tokens associated with AI development, decentralized machine learning, or data marketplaces. Some examples include Fetch.ai, Ocean Protocol, or SingularityNET. When evaluating these projects, prioritize those with working products or partnerships with established AI companies. Researching venture capitalists investing in AI-focused projects can also be insightful, as they tend to spot promising trends early.

Staying updated on the latest developments is essential. Follow credible crypto influencers on Twitter, but be discerning and avoid blindly following their picks. Joining relevant Telegram or Discord groups can be helpful for early news (be wary of paid signal groups though). News sites like Decrypt, Coindesk, and The Block are reliable sources for industry updates.

Finally, consider supplementing your learning with high-quality resources. Educational YouTube channels like Coin Bureau, Finematics, and Benjamin Cowen provide valuable insights. Podcasts like "Bankless," "Unchained," or "Crypto Banter" offer deep dives into crypto trends, while online communities like Reddit's r/cryptocurrency or niche Discord servers can foster valuable discussions. Paid tools like Nansen, Glassnode, or Messari can offer advanced analytics for experienced users.

By combining these strategies and resources, you'll develop the skills to effectively evaluate crypto projects, particularly in those experiencing rapid growth like AI and big data. Remember, success in crypto requires a combination of knowledge, patience, and a well-honed research approach.

This activity is not an exact science; otherwise, this category wouldn’t exist at all, as everyone would know how to do it. It’s similar to sandwich attacks on EVM blockchains—once they became mainstream, they stopped being profitable for those engaging in them. All I can say is that you need to feel the trends, anticipate them, and follow them.

You should also explore solana memecoins. They can change your life if yoy enter at right time with the right amount of capital.

best way to learn this is through doing marketing for those microcaps yourself
we promoted low cap ai token last year through shilling on tg and x plus sniper bot tracking - that's how

Totally feel you bro. Most real gains come from spotting narratives early, not charts. Follow on-chain sleuths, track new listings. It’s more about timing + instinct than analysis sometimes. Stay consistent and you'll start seeing patterns.

No matter how hard you try, you will always play 50/50.
