Cryptocurrencies that newcomers must understand

1. Bitcoin (BTC)

The 'gold' of the crypto world, with a market value accounting for over half of the total, it has the lowest risk and the strongest liquidity, serving as the 'foundation' for asset allocation in the crypto space.

2. Major Coins (ETH, etc.)

Leading tokens in various sectors, such as ETH and SOL, along with stablecoins like USDT and USDC, rank highly in the crypto market, have high popularity, and are actively traded, making them suitable for short-term or long-term holding.

3. Altcoins

Non-core blockchain tokens, most of which are 'concept coins' issued by various projects, have significant price fluctuations. Some can increase dozens of times, while others may go to zero. Be cautious to identify 'scam coins' and 'air coins'; 99.9% of altcoins are just tools for harvesting retail investors!
