The coins you mentioned BTC, ETH, BNB, SOL, ADA, TRX, and DOT have proven their reputation and have survived until now so there is no doubt that these coins are very potential and suitable for investment. I have BTC, ETH, BNB, SOL, in my wallet, and the new coin that I have a lot of is TON. I am not interested in investing in meme coins because I think they are less potential for long-term holding.
Yes, they are proven coins and have survived for many years. This is one of the biggest reasons why we choose old coins. Anyway, it is good that you have BTC, BNB, ETH, and SOL. These are top coins that are very potential to increase significantly in the near future. I also made a small research that I conclude ADA and DOT are also 2 top coins very recommended to buy. They are still far from their ATHs, and they look to have great moment in the next altcoins season. They may hit their ATH in the altcoins season.
The coins you mentioned above I already have in my wallet and plan to hold until the bullish season. BTC, BNB, ETH, and SOL, ADA are my coins of choice. I am indeed more confident and comfortable with old coins because many new coins only rely on hype and do not survive after that. I prefer to invest in something that is more certain and proven to last until now. DOT is not included in the coins I choose, because I have not done the analysis.
Everything is ultimately determined by the personal decision of the person who has the funds. Others only provide suggestions and are not bound to be followed. What you have saved is certainly potential until now, and it is natural for you to continue saving and waiting for the bullish season to arrive, which is expected to be soon.
It is true that old coins are indeed superior and new coins are indeed, as you said, only rely on hype and are difficult to get up compared to the old ones.
But still there are new ones that also need to be considered, such as TON, because the telegram mini-game is very enthusiastic at this time and usually will have an impact even though it cannot be predicted.
