If crypto-currencies really succeed, they're going to be worth a lot more than they are currently. They're still a really tiny market. For comparison, Bitcoin is ~60 billion USD and all the gold ever mined would be worth trillions. Don't look at it like a get rich quick scheme. Think of it as an asset class you invest in. Set aside what you can each month and buy a basket of currencies. Become educated about coins and get a sense of what real market innovation and real teams look like. There's a lot of scams out there. Most ICOs are scams in my opinion. If you're looking for a coin to get into that's relatively new but has a lot of potential, my bet is Filecoin.
