Buy old, not new. The old has a longer history, the consensus is a bit better, new coins are currently in short supply, most are just for speculation, after the old ones are dumped, most can't hold and sell, institutions will pick them up again.

$ZEN I give up, I really am a fool. I heavily invested in AR, Zen, and People, all of which are at least several times the currency. I listened to others saying to buy new coins instead of old ones, rejecting immense wealth, and bought new coins, but now I'm still down several times and have no hope of breaking even. I really give up.
