Well here's a chart for Dogecoin.DOGE/BTC Chart | Binance | Heikin AshiNo surprises here. Dogecoin has been bleeding against Bitcoin for almost a year now. That means, investors who bought doge, took an incredibly higher risk(than btc investors) and got worse returns. I can't think of any financial asset with worse risk-adjusted-returns. In short, if you're investing in altcoins, you would want your alt to perform as well as BTC or better since they are inherently riskier.Here's a similar story for Shiba Inu:SHIB/BTC Chart | Binance | Heikin AshiAs seen in the previous chart, we can see an initial few days of hype, and then a continuous bleed against BTC.Fundamental Analysis-TimingNow is probably the worst time to invest in highly speculative assets. The terrible Russia-Ukraine war is happening, and the global economy and supply chains are heavily affected due to that.
