I know this sounds stupid but hear me out. You need to become Raven, the most succesful chimpanzee in the stock market. Now that doesn't mean you should ape into projects because of shilling and hyping. What I want to say is that often projects perform way better than we can fathom because the markets are rational. Among most of my friends that have invested. Very often it's the friends that have no clue about the markets. They just keep on buying on dips, they are not fuelled by greed, and they keep on outperforming those of us that keep up-to-date on crypto. I'm very happy with my own gains, however, it shows as long as you keep dollar cost averaging over a longer period of time into various projects, without listening to the bias of other people, your portfolio will probably see crazy gains.

I'm wondering if i should do an experiment where i select 10 coins at random from the top 500 coins, and see if those 10 coins perform better than my own portfolio.

edit: The monkey will probably be less likely to fall for crypto scams.
