If you are a beginner, avoid buying cryptocurrencies just at the moment of launch. Initial purchases are usually dominated by large investors (whales), who place orders worth millions, causing an instant price increase. In the first seconds, the coin reaches its peak and generally collapses shortly after. This means that even if you buy at the start, you could face losses quickly. The key is to wait for the price to drop after the initial spike, as you can still buy at a lower price and minimize risk.
Whales operate with amounts much larger than small investors; they often place buy orders ranging from 50,000 to 200,000 USDT. As a beginner, it is recommended to make small purchases, between 50 to 200 USDT, and monitor market behavior before entering. Do not let the fear of missing out on an opportunity (FOMO) drive you to make impulsive decisions. Patience is essential to find the optimal moment and achieve sustainable profits in the long term.
