✅ Value Investing in Crypto Spot Markets 🧧🧧🧧
One prerequisite: Make sure the project isn’t going to collapse.
Two things to focus on: Buy at a low price, and buy more.
The prerequisite determines “whether to buy”; the two points determine “how to buy.” Never get the order wrong.
✅ One prerequisite: Find out whether the project can survive for the long term.
💥 Three key factors to check 👇
1️⃣ Check whether there’s a risk of the project going to zero or the team running off with the money.
Who is on the project team? Are they doxxed or anonymous? Have they run off with funds from previous projects?
Have the contract permissions been renounced? Can more tokens be minted?
Is the liquidity locked? For how long?
How are the tokens allocated? How much goes to the team, private investors, and community?
What’s the vesting schedule? Will tokens be dumped every month?
Has the project been audited? Is its code open source?
Once you look into these things, many shitcoins are exposed for what they really are.
In short: If you can’t verify it, don’t buy it.
2️⃣ Does it have a viable goal, mission, vision, and roadmap for its ecosystem?
A coin without a clear development roadmap is bound to become a cash grab. If you didn’t get in early enough to buy at the bottom, chasing the price could leave you as one of the retail investors who gets dumped on.
3️⃣ Is there a genuine community driving the project forward?
Remember, a community isn’t just people frantically shilling coins and running scams, nor is it people constantly asking, “When will the price pump?”
A real community has people making tutorials, translating, taking part in community governance, organizing offline events, and holding for the long term.
A fake community is full of bots spamming, admins shilling the coin, people talking only about price, and nobody able to explain the project’s fundamentals.
Also remember to check token distribution: What percentage of the supply is held by the top 10 or top 100 addresses?
A community can be a moat, but it can also go crazy. Look for genuine engagement, not just hype (a short-lived buzz will eventually fade).
Understanding these points can bring you the following benefits:
1. Fewer costly mistakes: You’ll know how to check the team, contract, liquidity, vesting, and audits, helping you avoid projects that go to zero or rug-pull investors.
2. Lose less money: Don’t chase pumps or buy other people’s bags; learn to tell a genuine community from fake hype.
3. For quality coins, think in terms of accumulating the coin itself. Buy in batches when prices dip to lower your average cost and build a larger position.
4. Stay in the game longer: Don’t go all-in, borrow money, or use leverage. Keep a level head and make it through bull and bear markets. Learn to go from gambler to investor: survive first, then make money.
