When you pick a coin what tools do you use for determining its value and use case scenario? I try using the crypto exchanges that list a lot of coins to find good candidates to invest some of my earnings into, but it's really hard to filter out the ones that are pump and dumps. The tools on most exchanges for charting aren't nearly as refined as the tools for stocks.
I've been trying to diversify. It's fun to find out out about the different projects out there.
What I'm doing here is investing in ideas. I wouldn't put a lot of money into these coins without checking to make sure they are active on Github and slack. Even though $100 is kind of a big deal to me, I've cut out many things to be able to put in $100 a week.
My main criteria are 1) has to be on Bittrex 2) can't be just a currency 3) information is easily accessible. When I was trying to decide a coin this morning I had about 20 tabs open that fit the criteria. It's just reading until you find something that sounds really cool and you can imagine it succeeding. And that's just coins ranked 85-200 on coin market cap.
