I agree that there are a lot of scams in recent times, but I don't think it should discourage people from looking at new investments. It just means that you have to be more careful with in what coin you invest in and not just jump into every coin that comes out. It all comes down to research, do your research and only invest in ones that you feel very comfortable in. If your unsure chances are your gut instinct could be correct. Use good judgment, otherwise you could be missing out on a big investment..
