If you are buying an altcoin after checking on this subreddit, you are likely already late to the party and is exit liquidity.

If a small altcoin just launch with amazing potential and only small group of insiders have heard about them, do you think you can share about that altcoin in this subreddit and get many upvotes?

What likely is going to happen is any post about any particular small altcoin with good potential will get downvoted while the larger marketcap ones with more trust established get upvoted.

This is quite fair. As a community, people don't want to hear about new altcoins without enough history to prevent most scams and pump dumps scams from happening.

So no matter what is being shilled in this subreddit, just know there is a high chance you are already late if not very late to the party. The coin has already been speculated above it's natural value.

If you invest for long term (3-4 years) this probably doesn't matter but if you are investing for a shorter timespan, don't use this subreddit and be people exit liquidity.
