Most people will never figure this out: You should only be considering to buy altcoins where the team abstains from selling their tokens. Imagine if Satoshi kept selling his BTC throughout the years. It's too much resistance to let the coin go up in price. Every "legitimate" project like $LINK and $XRP generates revenue by selling their own tokens to fund operations. The Ripple co-founder sold over $200m worth of $XRP over the past week btw. That's 99% of crypto right there. Teams creating constant sell pressure on their own tokens while promising future utility. The exception to this is $HYPE and $PUMP. $HYPE and $PUMP are the only tokens in crypto operating legitimate businesses at billion-dollar scale with real revenue flowing back to token holders. Instead of selling tokens, they're buying them back with profits from actual business operations worth HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS. Think back to how Amazon and Google emerged from the dot com bubble. Everything else.. ZERO. They were the only companies that had real customers conducting real transactions while competitors burned through funding.
