Before you invest any amount, you should understand the basics such as:

What is blockchain?

The difference between coins (like BTC and ETH) and tokens (like LINK and UNI)

How digital wallets and platforms work

Not all cryptocurrencies are good for investment. When choosing, watch for:

The project and the team

The purpose of the coin and its solution to a real problem

Trading volume and liquidity

Supporting communities and media interest

Example: Bitcoin and Ethereum are considered a safer long-term investment than meme coins or random tokens.
