Why do most of the hot altcoins have terrible tokenomics?

I've just recently started looking into the circulating vs. max supply data for some of the hot altcoins I've been recommended to invest in, and I notice a lot of them look really bad at face value (like 60% or less unlocked of max supply). Makes me worry about all of these coins being inflated and devalued at any given moment. Can anybody tell me if there's something I'm not seeing here that makes these safer buys than I'm realizing? (such as slow unlock time, or guarantees that certain portions of the tokens will never be unlocked, etc..)

Here are some of the altcoins I'm referring to:

XRP

HBAR

ONDO

LINK

SUI

SEI

TAO

(Edit: added a coin to the list)
