If you're in crypto, one thing you must know is that you will hardly get rich with $BTC or $ETH unless you have a big bag of investments.
Large-cap cryptos like BTC and ETH are well established, they are costly and it's not easy for every retail trader to put a lot of money that can double or triple their profit.
If you're able to invest $100,000 in BTC or ETH it will surely double but if you're putting the same in micro or small cryptos it can be 5x, 10x, or even 100x.
Let's discuss volatility, if you think Bitcoin and Ethereum are less volatile than other cryptos, that's also wrong. All cryptos (even stocks these days) are the same amount of volatile.
After analyzing the behavior of cryptos for many months, we can say that retail crypto traders need to keep an eye on micro or small-cap cryptos, it can be any like $ADA or $XRP or meme coins like $BONK or $FLOKI or $PEPE (it completely depends on you which one you choose).
